This week’s episode of Monday Night Raw was interesting, as most of the show focused on the 7 man gauntlet match which featured all of the competitors from the men’s Elimination Chamber match which is set to take place on Sunday.
In the end it was Braun Strowman who won the match, but the contest got a lot of people talking about Seth Rollins after he lasted 1 hour and 5 minutes before being eliminated.
Rollins managed to defeat John Cena and Roman Reigns, and he made history in the process as his 1 hour and 5 minute performance was the longest amount of time any Superstar has spent in a match in the history of Raw.
Following Raw, Rollins took to Twitter to say that the gauntlet match was truly special.
It’s nights like these when I remember why I fell in love with professional wrestling. Thank you to the men I shared the ring with this evening. It was truly special. I’ve drawn a line in the sand… #MONDAYNIGHTROLLINS #WrestleMania

Things have certainly changed for former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger. Last year Swagger parted ways with WWE, and he’s been busy wrestling on the independent circuit and training for his first MMA fight.
Swagger confirmed a few months that he’ll be fighting for Bellator at some point this year, and he recently commented on his current condition when he posted the following on Instagram:
“At the beginning of 2017, my body was banged up and in the worst shape of my life. What a difference a year can make. Hard work and Good people can change your world. Change is scary but it could be the best thing to happen to you!!”
