War Raiders Called Up To RAW With New Names, Alexander Joins RAW

Last night’s Superstar Shakeup edition of Monday Night RAW also saw NXT Tag Team Champions The War Raiders move up to the main roster with new names. Now being called The Viking Experience, Erik (Hanson) & Ivar (Rowe) made their Monday Night RAW debuts last night by teaming up with The Revival to defeat Ricochet, Aleister Black & RAW Tag Team Champions Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins. The finish saw The Viking Experience get the double team pin on Ryder.
Erik & Ivar did not bring their NXT Tag Team Titles to RAW last night, but commentary did announce that they are still The NXT Tag Team Champions. There is no word yet on what the call-up means for the champions or when their next title defense will be, but more information will be provided once it is made available.
It was also announced last night by WWE that Former WWE Cruiserweight Champion Cedric Alexander is headed to RAW from 205 Live. As previously reported, The Miz moved to Monday Night RAW from SmackDown LIVE to start last night’s show. Below are the photos and the videos from last night’s main roster debut for The NXT Tag Team Champions along with a GIF for Alexander:
