1) WWE Celebrated The Life Of Bobby Heenan
This weeks episode of Monday Night RAW kicked off with a tribute to Bobby ‘the Brain’ Heenan. Heenan passed away on Sunday night and the news saddened the wrestling world.
WWE celebrated the life of Heenan throughout the night on RAW. This included a video tribute, as well as showing a lot of the tweets that WWE stars (past and present) have posted over the past 24 hours about Bobby. Rest in Peace Bobby.

2) Some Fans Were Upset That There Was No 10-Bell Salute For ‘The Brain’
While WWE did start the show with a graphic of Heenan (and celebrated him throughout the night), some fans were upset that Bobby ‘the Brain’ Heenan didn’t get the 10-bell salute to kick off RAW.
We have seen WWE do this in the past for big names who have passed away. WWE chose not to go that route. Here were some tweets from fans that were upset:
I turned on Raw tonight to see the 10 bell salute for Bobby Heenen and it doesn’t happen… God I hate this company sometimes.

@VinceMcMahon what a pathetic move not giving the brain a 10 bell salute! You lost a lot of respect! @WWE #RIPBobbyHeenan

3) WWE Teased Us With Another (Miz) Match That Might Never Happen
In the opening segment of RAW, the Miz and the Miztourage confronted Kurt Angle. This included the Miz taking some shots at Angle and his parenting skills.
WWE loves to tease us with matches that might never happen. It was the Miz vs Daniel Bryan on Smackdown. Now it is the Miz vs Kurt Angle on RAW..
