- The night after Roman Reigns won the 2015 Royal Rumble, WWE was forced to cancel Monday Night Raw due to a blizzard. They instead aired a Triple Threat Match between John Cena, Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar, held interviews and even had Michael Cole, Booker T and JBL discuss the upcoming WrestleMania.

JBL: It cold as balls out here maggle
I thought that was a bizarre comment. I can't speak for anyone else's balls, but mine are always hot as a sauna lol.
@@rayedmonds6108😂👍
@@rayedmonds6108lol nice to know bro. So nice we’re all close enough to share this kind of intimate details:)
This day was pretty much a free ppv
FR
Imagine being the guy who paid for the 2015 Rumble only to find out you basically got it for free the next day
@@HoV326The rumble was on the network by this point
@@mariosalgado9750 right I forgot the Network was still around its first year
@@HoV326I was that guy wasted my birthday money on it
*WEATHER AND RAW BOTH WERE TOO COLD 🥶!!*
Goated comment😂
True 😂
But not Scorpio 😔
I remember this. I was weirded out that I was watching the ACTUAL Royal Rumble for free.
The first Royal Rumble in 1988 aired live and free on USA Network.
I don't know what happened specifically, but does anyone remember when they showed triple H versus undertaker no holds barred match, the raw after the ppv. I was a poor kid and seeing my favorite wrestlers go at it for free was so awesome
its really weird when other people say that beacuse for us asian viewers we get to watch it on the same cable subscription as the tv tapings
Crazy part is that raw was highly rated too
Tbf putting one of the greatest triple threat matches ever and a royal Rumble, good or bad, on free TV will draw anytime. Good damage control from WWE tbf
I mean the backstage stuff always performs pretty well interviews and whatnot and the JBL weather report is hilarious if you haven't watched it plus anyone who missed the night before got to see the royal rumble for free so there is that
Honestly just hearing about it sounds like it was so much fun to watch
@@mitchelllynch1129 It's not only that, but everyone knowing about the Blizzard, people tuned in just to see what exactly WWE was going to do. This was as unique as it gets.
I think I remember that day, Dean Ambrose showed up to the headquarters while the rumble was on
I remember this. I pleaded with my parents to let me stay up to watch the Rumble since we didn't get it the night before.
That day my grandma told me to got to bed early and that shit still hurts 😂
When they aired triple h vs undertaker no holds barred wrestler mania match , my mom tried the same thing but she saw me so excited she let me, my 2 goats for free was so crazy
Roman with blue eyes lol
Yeah is this his actual eye color or did he put lenses on? Are the blue or the brown eyes lenses I wonder..
@@balkanrules246 lenses.
@@balkanrules246they were lenses that he had to wear to make his character look more face even though he hated them
Terrible time. Nearly 10 years later I still can’t stand Roman due to the lengths they went to make Roman a top face. Blue eye contacts, holy hell 😂
@@TrialzGTASNot his fault, to be honest. He didn't think of himself as a face, either.
JBL was through 2014-2016 was a HUGE part of Raw and he always made the show and wrestlers feel like bigger stars than they are. When he left, you can tell a void was there.
As much as true it is, I'd still appreciate Graves for the job he's doing
I remember that, dean ambrose had me cranking up when he showed up 😂😂
I lived in CT when that storm hit. We were out of power for a week & straight up buried in the snow. It was pretty bad.
Ya we got 38 inches of snow in less then 15 hours that was the first storm in 15 years of plowing snow I had ever stopped plowing and went home because it was to dangerous to even be on the roads WWE made it seem like they just wanted to give ppl a treat truth was even they didn't know what to do and had 6 generator trucks running the whole show to broadcast that night I know 3 of the drivers that were stuck there for the night and the following 3 days after
What’s funny is that I would always see the WWE headquarters when I went to school in Stamford!
You’re lucky as fuck bro
That storm shut down the east coast and central states.
I still remember the shoveling we did that day. 🔥
I remember that day. It was really entertaining and would like some more shows were it is just radomness. I know its a wrestling show but, i wouldnt mind different segments like how WWE Confidential was, if people remember that show.
I remember being hella excited about watching the triple threat championship match after not being able to order the pay-per-view
Man, not even the weather wanted to see 2015 Roman Reigns
I remember this too. I was in 5th grade. Didn’t have cable. My teacher was a big wrestling fan. Hope that guy is good. He was legit a teacher.
yeah no, not airing was good the whole building would have been booing because of what happened during the rumble.
Having JBL doing a weather report just makes me think how hilarious it would be to have a whole news take over would have been lol
I remember that show. I was in middle school. I just finished my undergraduate in college. Time flies
Better than most 2019-2020 Raws 😂
I’m remember seeing it on live television
Heck I still have that Monday night raw episode on my DVR, I got a free Royal Rumble that day lol.
"When WWE was forced to cancel a Monday Night Raw."
What summer day of 2007 have I heard that before?
You don’t mean…
We had ice storms -10 below 0 and foot of snow in my city they still did raw no issues.
The night people were already pissed
Mother Nature has no mercy!!
It's God not mother nature
Imagine spending money on that PPV and then finding out they are airing it free 24 hours later.
As a Roman fan the most I remember from 2014-15 was him having his break out years, became champ first time in 2015 and it was one of the best title changes in recent memory
I was stoked to watch the Royal Rumble again.... but also had buyer's remorse, could have saved money.
I remember this shot. Lol
JBL giving a weather report 😂😂😂
“Mr. Corner”😂😂
i remember this vividly bc i missed the royal rumble bc of the cost and getting to see it for free was awesome
Damn, I remember that Raw like Yesterday. Since I live in India, I left the morning for school after watching that Cancelled Raw live and we all were Discussing about that. That was a Chilly morning here too.
I was mad because I had just purchased the WWE network to watch the ppv just for them to show it for free the next night 😑
Even the weather was mad that Roman Reigns won the rumble!
I remember that day.
I was working with my dad and it started to snow heavily that morning. I get home that night and all i see is sitdown interviews but it was a good show nonetheless and it pulled it high ratings.
I remember this mostly for that infamous Roman and Brock interview if i remember correctly but it was hella fun rewatching the Triple Threat
I remember walking to the xL center in that blizzard😂……didn’t think they’d actually cancel the show
That night WWE split Raw between WWE offices & the arena that night.
So wrestlers slept in the arena & the WWE offices so they were able to have some matches in the arena.
I'm from west hartford, I hadn't been into wwe for 2 years at that point, but I can confirm that storm was legendary, people still talk about whenever another storm starts coming by
That was how I viewed one of the best Triple Threat matches I've ever seen and a Royal Rumble match without paying for the WWE Network or On Demand.
That had to be the most insane thing WWE had to do but totally worth it because it's better to be safe than sorry down the line.
I had tickets for this show! I was so sad it got cancelled, especially cuz the storm was relatively not that bad, but was able to get to the following Smackdown
I vividly remember turning on raw the night after the rumble, which being young at the time and new to wrestling I thought was the best PPV of all time. But then I turned on Raw and was bummed out that there was no wrestling at all.
I remember watching it when I was 9 and my mom would never buy PPVs because we were pretty broke. I always wondered how I watched the royal rumble, which made me so happy and its because of this. Nice to learn it
I remember that. Went to watch raw after school and they gave a message that it was a really bad blizzard I think so they aired the rumble PPV for us for free🔥
I remember this one really well. My brother and i were so excited because our parents never bought ppvs. Great time
This was during the time when I watched every raw and smackdown back in high school this raw specifically happened when I was a junior in high school i fell off a bit after high school
I do remember this episode. For the situation they were in, they honestly did a halfway decent job of filling the 3 hrs with content a decent number of people stayed tuned in for... Talk about having to roll with the punches...
I remember this actually. I usually never got to watch the pay per views because we didn’t have wwe network and I remember wondering why I was watching the royal rumble on a Monday after school
I remember watching raw that day and being so confused on why the rumble was on😂
As someone who didn’t have the network it was so awesome that night. JBL on the roof baby
I remember this! It was cool for the folk that don't buy PPVs, but I can't imagine how people that DID buy the PPV felt.
Was supposed to go to this show, however it got cancelled and we got a live SmackDown later that week
I woke up at 12 and straight up looking what's in raw only to have triple threat and rr match, best night of January.
WWE is so lucky that the weather cooperates when it comes to the pay-per-views could you imagine if WrestleMania had to be canceled due to weather
i remember this especially when Deam Ambrose went out in the storm.
I remember that night, I trapped in my dorm with my roommates, and we all saw the PPV
broooo I remember this! me and my cousin were hype to watch raw after the rumble because our parents would never buy the ppv. So the raw after the ppv be the ones we look forward to the most. We thought some kind of crazy glitch was going on because when we turned it on and saw that triple threat we were so hype lol
That day lives rent free in my head. Story Time!
I was in middle school and like most days for me, it was AWFUL. I was depressed, got bullied, teachers didn't care, and when I tried to fight back I was the one in trouble. Came home to get a ear full of bullshit from my shitty step-grandfather & my grandmother being a nervous wreck over 1 C on my Report Card & making sure i did my homework when that wasnt even the problem. Didn't have much to help me through rough times like that day & two of the three things that did at the time weren't available except WWE. I was getting ready to watch what i thought to be a regular episode to then find out I get to watch the Royal Rumble instead really helped me day. It was awesome to watch a paperview specially the Royal Rumble which I've never seen before
I remember that. I remember Grim’s Raw reaction to it.
I remember this day, it was great I got to see the ppv for free
Didn’t they do stuff at WWE HQ? Also remember Dean trying to walk or something to it
BROOOO I REMEMBER THIS. I was so confused why the episode was just a royal rumble recap but I wasn’t complaining cuz I didn’t watch the rumble live
This somehow became a core memory for me
Honestly knowing what happened during the Rumble with Cancel WWE Trending they got lucky
It's been a long time since I've actively watched WWE but I burst out laughing as soon as I saw JBL just cause of all the funny shit I remember him being in from his wrestling days to his transition as an caster.
A special weather report by JBL... Now that's ppv worthy. Lol
I remember this like it was yesterday. I was supposed to go and sit on the floor and there was talks about the show getting canceled but no one believed it but sure enough it did💀
Man, I completely forgot about this episode. That was a bad snowstorm. That even hit here in DC. I remember a few friends and I walking along the GW parkway cause the snow was up to our knees. I took acid that night too.
The storm never came I remember that day
that's a good move. Ppl like me didn't pay for the PPV shows. Free is ALWAYS a win (in most cases) 😂
This is the kind of programming that i miss
I remember this night being the only night I ever watched the full royal rumble and Roman reigns won
Was actually the very first episode I ever watched. Got me into wrestling on and off since then
I believe this is the second to last episode of Raw I ever watched live. I've been watching it on DVR for well over a decade. I like to fast forward all the commercials and things/people I don't care about. Morbid curiosity as to what the hell they were going to do that night had me tune in when it went on the air.
I Remember It Like it Was yesterday 😂😂😂
They were always ready for a pandemic situation.
I remember this like it was yesterday. We got absolutely SMACKED by snow that year.
Wasn't this the same Raw when homie ran into a statue 😂
that raw was honestly really cool
That when I realized Seth rollin can work in the ring that was a awesome triple threat match
I remember this, got to watch the rumble for free.
No wonder I remember watching the triple threat back then I didn’t pay for the ppv
Now that we have the WWE Network or peacock We can just go ahead and rewatch that 😅😅
The wwe don’t play about that streak of live raw shows😂 they gonna find a way!
That’s a solid compromise tbh, that triple threat was a fire match. Can’t say the same about the rumble match though 🥴
I remember a canceled Raw too.
It was in 2007, they canceled it because…………erm………..I can’t remember why but it was cancelled
I’ll never forget the hilarious part where Dean Ambrose "walked" to WWE headquarters
It was probably the chillest monau night ever
I remember this! I was so happy that I was able to watch the rumble the next night basically in full 😂
i remember this! i was so happy that i could watch the royal rumble match because we couldn’t afford it at the time
Only ogs remember dean pulling up mid show
I’m glad it didn’t tune in that Monday
They aired the weather report im guessing so they can say they were part of media reporting on storm.
This allowed them to drive to produce the media.
Smart cookies
I remember this raw cause of that JBL weather report
Mother Nature was so mad at WWE after The Royal Rumble that night 😂
