The WWE finished the PPV year with what felt like a really good episode of Monday Night RAW. In a series of mostly rematches, WWE Roadblock did manage to give us two title changes and one very clear reunion between 2 of the 3 hounds of justice, aka The Shield.

Charlotte put an end to her feud with Sasha Banks in an exciting sudden death Ironman match. A former NXT star breathed much needed life into the cruiserweight division and the long and winding championship reign of the New Day finally came to an end. While Roman Reigns was not able to become the first ever co-Universal and United States champion, he did contract his former architect, Seth Rollins, for a fun round of good ol’ fashioned double powerbombing through tables to end the show.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the night’s event.
Sheamus and Cesaro Win
Sheamus and Cesaro kicked off the night by dethroning the New Day.
TBH match of the night goes to The New Day and Sheamus/Cesaro! That was awesome! #WWERoadblock

Zayn survives
Sami proved he was worthy of hanging with Braun Strowman, well, at least for 10 minutes.
The Zayn/Strowman match was alright up until they ended it once the 10-minutes ran out. Just let them finish the fight! #WWERoadblock

Great way to end the match which for the most part was boring. Keeps both men strong #WWERoadblock #SamiZayn #BraunStrowman

Neville Returns
Finally, a cruiserweight gave fans something to care about.
That “thank you Neville” chant after #Neville beat up the cruiserweights.
IronWoman Match
It wasn’t their best match, but hey, round of applause for what these women have done.
Yo, @SashaBanksWWE is having a @steveaustinBSR #WWE moment with this submission! #IronManMatch #WWERoadblock

Shield destroy Jericho/Owens
Pittsbrugh may have burned to the ground if Roman walked out with both championships. The ending we got instead was in a word, special.
