On last night's episode of Monday Night Raw, Montez Ford collapsed in the middle of the ring, a mysterious new faction caused numerous technical glitches and set fire to a generator, and Shane McMahon unveiled Raw Underground, a shoot-style fight club.

While the episode itself may have been chaotic, yesterday's Raw tapings were also described as "chaos from the top." Gary Cassidy at Sportskeeda noted plans for the shows were changing on the fly throughout the day and there was a lot of stressed people backstage because of the indecisiveness of people at the top. Cassidy also revealed Vince McMahon was in a "volatile" mood at the Performance Center because people were failing to make decisions.

The chaos seemingly had negative repercussions for the talent as Sean Ross Sapp at Fightful Select reported the company was still filming content for next week's edition of Raw Underground after midnight ET. The company also struggled to communicate to talent as most of the roster "had no idea" what was being taped throughout the day.
