The latest edition of WWE Monday Night Raw for April 15, 2019 took place at the Bell Centre in Montreal, QC.

Here is a recap of the most noteworthy highlights from this episode for those who may have missed it:

— Raw started with Shane and Stephanie McMahon introducing the concept of the Superstar Shake-up. Shane hyped himself up as the best in the world and before they were able to announce the first trade, The Miz jumped the gun and attacked Shane. The Miz is now on the Raw roster.

— Ricochet and Aleister Black are on Raw. NXT tag team champions War Raiders are, too, and have been renamed Erik (Rowe) and Ivar (Hanson). They are no longer War Raiders, but The Viking Experience.

— The Revival and The Viking Experience defeated Ricochet, Aleister Black, Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder by pinfall

— Cedric Alexander is advertised as heading to the Raw roster, too.

— Andrade and Zelina Vega have been traded to Raw.

— Andrade defeated Finn Balor by pinfall

— Elias upset the crowd by dumping on Canadians. He was interrupted by Rey Mysterio (now on Raw), who ran him off. Then, Lars Sullivan attacked and beat Mysterio down to make a statement.

— Bobby Roode and Chad Gable cut a promo, challenging any team. Midway through that, someone in the production truck accidentally placed a graphic of The Usos on screen, ruining the surprise. Out came The Usos, now on Raw as well. The Usos defeated Chad Gable and Bobby Roode by pinfall.

— Sami Zayn toyed with the audience during an edition of A Moment of Bliss.

— Naomi is now on the Raw roster. She and Bayley defeated The IIconics by pinfall.

— EC3 was destroyed by Braun Strowman, who chokeslammed him through the stage.

— Eric Young is now on Raw, which was casually brought up in a recap graphic. The rest of SAnitY isn't joining him.

— Becky Lynch defeated Ruby Riott by submission. Following the match, Natalya came out to tell Lynch that she's coming for the Raw Women's Championship. Lacey Evans then came out to introduce a No. 1 contender's match between the two.

— Lacey Evans defeated Natalya to become the No. 1 contender for the Raw Women's Championship.
