There was a brief scare backstage at RAW today as a strong thunderstorm rolled through the area, leading to a power outage at the arena. WWE posted several videos of the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, Texas where a lightning strike caused an outage.
Tom Phillips also tweeted that the makeup team was doing their work on the talent by candlelight.
Power has since been restored to the arena and everything is good to go for RAW tonight.
