Last week it was reported by Sports Illustrated that RAW 25 was re-written approximately three hours ahead of showtime after the creative team found out that Jimmy Fallon could not arrive early enough for pre-tapes and segments with many of the WWE legends.

This reportedly included a segment that was planned with the RAW GMs which ultimately became introductions and waves to the crowd.

WWE Sources that WrestleZone have spoken with indicate that the development of Raw is an iterative process and any changes to RAW 25 had nothing to do with Jimmy Fallon.
