Powell’s POV: WWE has loaded up tonight’s show, which will run opposite the college football national championship game. It will be interesting to see if the opt to introduce any of the NXT wrestlers they have listed as coming soon to the main roster now that EC3 and Lacey Evans delivered their farewell speeches at Sunday’s live event in Durham, North Carolina. Join me for live coverage of Raw tonight at 7CT/8ET, and members will hear my weekly audio review after the show.

Noticed on last weeks show that Michael Cole described the Claymore as the most destructive finisher in WWE. Wondering if this was just a throwaway line if its something they are going to use to setup a claymore vs RKO feud in the future as they always call the RKO the most destructive 3 letters in professional wrestling.
