WWE Raw Results: Biggest Winners, Losers and Moments from December 14

Roman Reigns was the biggest winner of the December 14 episode of Raw, capturing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Sheamus in grand fashion and, in the process, basking in the cheers of fans who had rejected him and booed him out of the building some 11 months earlier at the Royal Rumble.

The Philadelphia faithful finally accepted Reigns as a legitimate main event babyface, erupting into a huge ovation as he launched himself at Vince McMahon and knocked the owner of the company unconscious with a Superman punch, then brought Sheamus' run as champion to a close with a massive spear.

For Reigns, Monday's Raw was his coronation not only as champion but as the face of the company.

His journey to the top of the industry had taken so many twists and turns, and he endured so many criticisms for things he really had no control over, that to see him stand atop the mountain with the championship in his hand, the recipient of adulation from fans who would have rather seen him fall off a cliff than in that position a year ago at this time, made for one of the feel-good moments of the year.

There were other Superstars who came out of Sunday's Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2015 with strong performances Monday night. Others benefited from suitable and effective booking for the first time in months.

But not everyone was lucky. Some suffered at the hand of the almighty Vince McMahon and his inconsistent booking. Others were flatly disrespected and humiliated by the boss on national television.

There were several winners and losers from Monday's broadcast. Now you can find out who the lucky and not-so-lucky ones were.

Losers: Bo Dallas and R-Truth

The most blatant display of disrespect for two Superstars took place Monday night when R-Truth and Bo Dallas' match was suddenly interrupted and brought to a premature end by Vince McMahon, who strutted toward the ring as only he can, ordering them out of the ring as if they were children and he was a father returning from a hard day's work.

And Dallas and Truth scurried like two cowards, neither particularly interested in standing up to the man who was interrupting their ring time.

The display was little more than an ego stroke from McMahon, who still likes to remind the world (and himself) that he wields all the power and dictates what does and does not happen on his shows.

Are Truth and Dallas involved in anything meaningful to the point that McMahon's actions would kill their momentum? No, but this sort of angle is exactly the reason people do not take midcard guys seriously. They are expendable and do not matter; McMahon went above and beyond to prove as much Monday night. 

Much to the detriment of two guys who certainly did not deserve that treatment. 

Winner: Kevin Owens

The booking of Kevin Owens leading into TLC was hardly inspiring. He was humiliated, treated like a coward, then beaten at the pay-per-view to really diminish his heat. Monday night, he was rebuilt courtesy of one segment that reminded fans how much of a dangerous badass he can be.

He ran over Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose, leaving the latter lying in a pile of bone and skin following repeated pop-up powerbombs.

It was an angle that needed to happen in order for Owens to regain some of his edge.

Best of all was the way that he made sure to hold the intercontinental title and look at it longingly, just enough to imply that it meant a great deal to him, but not as much as his pride and ego, which had been bruised recently by Ambrose.

His hubris fueled his attack and reinvigorated a character neutered by inconsistent booking and a loss of character motivation.

It worked and should lead to an Owens renaissance in 2016.

Loser: Tyler Breeze

Prince Pretty's downward spiral continued Monday night when he lost a short match to Neville and was completely overshadowed by The Man That Gravity Forgot's ongoing story with The Miz.

To recap Tyler Breeze's main roster stint thus far: He debuted on B-show SmackDown, lost a rivalry to Dolph Ziggler full of 50-50 booking and was pinned in his very first Raw match against Dean Ambrose.

Add to that the glorified squash he lost this week, and you have a recipe for Breeze's becoming the equivalent of Adam Rose rather than Kevin Owens.

He deserves better, especially taking into consideration how much work he put in during his days in developmental to fine-tune his character and evolve his mat game.
