Time was a fella could get over with a little color from a heel attack.
This is not that time.

Fans cheer loudly for Trips as he beats the piss out of Reigns. While that was an awesome visual with the blood, is that really what they want? Not exactly the cheers your hoping to build for Reigns.
I really liked the beatdown though, don't get me wrong, but what did they expect, fans to boo Triple H for that? No chance.

I wasn't watching with any great level of attention, but did anyone have a good Flint-related sign tonight?

Whatever kind of weirdo takes time to dick around on Wikipedia pages made an edit at some point about tonight's storyline but instead of writing The Undertaker they put Hornswaggle, which as far as I'm concerned would sell some tickets, pal.

I love Shane-O-Mac. Not a bit of the storyline makes any sense to me but I love the thought of watching him perform. I'm pretty legit scared for his life however as you just know that he never holds anything back.

Mania shaping up quite nicely to this point.
Taker/Shane - HIAC
Brock/Ambrose - Street Fight
Trips/Reigns - Championship (And despite disdain it should still be a pretty damn good match)
And I'm assuming we're still gonna get:
Owens/AJ - Title
Womens 3 Way - Title
Still no clue on Kalisto, Bray, Jericho....to name a few.

So this last hour has really been a steaming pile of dogshit, with cartoon stink lines and everything. Consistently making a compelling three hour show week after week is something they just can't do. They can't even do it once. I wish they'd book 30 minutes of NXT in Raw and that might help fix the problem. |

Just thinking out loud but maybe Kalisto vs Neville at Mania? That would be a heck of a match.

Well at least now they just go ahead and put all the suck together and get it over with. For example Big Show & Friends as well as the League of Nations. Why these dopes ever beat the Wyatts is well beyond me.
For the record, Rusev is not included in that suck statement.

Hopefully Big Show retires after Mania and takes over for JBL.

I wouldn't mind a Goldberg/Ryback match just to see Ryback get killed. Perhaps literally.

I love Charlotte's heel work. Ric is such a wreck. It's a wonder Conrad gets a show out of him.

I think the boos are a little much for Roman. Hopefully people are booing at Vince(creative) rather than Roman himself. It's certainly not his fault that Vince pushed him prematurely and relentlessly down our throats. That said, Roman's impromptu work the few times he's been able to display it has been good and generally speaking he's always showed up for big matches.

They are for Vince and for the character. His current character is awful as a face......yet as a heel it would work but that is just not something Vince is going to allow. |

Shane McMahon's Return Marred By Shocking Match Against The Undertaker
Alfred Konuwa , CONTRIBUTOR
I write about men in tights and the money they make for men in suits.
FOLLOW ON FORBES (13)
Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.
In a homecoming that could only be outdone by Joe Louis himself miraculously coming back to life for a surprise appearance in the arena dedicated to his name, Shane McMahon shuffled back into the WWE Monday on Raw.
An extended standing ovation included chants of “holy s–t,” “this is awesome,” “Shane-O-Mac,” and of course “yes!”
It was a feel-good moment. One that the disgruntled hardcore contingent needed one night after Roman Reigns punched another ticket to the WrestleMania main event.
Shane criticized WWE’s ratings, which hit all-time lows in 2015. He went after injuries, which continue to pile up among aging WWE Superstars and war-torn former independent wrestlers. He even spoke ill about WWE’s current stock price, which currently sits at $16.35, and dropped 8.70% even after WWE announced record revenues earlier this month.
There was a simultaneous mix between the surreal and harsh reality as fans hung on to every word. Then things quickly came crashing back to earth.
At WrestleMania 32, Shane McMahon will face The Undertaker for control of Monday Night Raw.
Amid mass speculation of Undertaker’s potential opponent for WrestleMania, which has included names from John Cena to Braun Strowman. But on April 3, Shane McMahon and The Undertaker will come together for one of the oldest combined ages among WrestleMania opponents at 96 years old.
It’s worth mentioning the match will be be inside Hell in a Cell.
So does this make The Undertaker a heel? Is Shane McMahon—a non-wrestler out of his athletic prime—actually going to become the second name to ever defeat Undertaker in almost 30 years at WrestleMania? Won’t that make Shane a heel? Will Shane join The Authority shortly thereafter? Shane-O-Mac hasn’t wrestled in almost a decade, so could this be one of the worst matches of Undertaker’s illustrious WrestleMania career?
Shane’s return came under the guise of stability. He wants to provide generational security for himself and his children by taking control of the company. Yet, somehow, the road to WrestleMania is more hectic than ever.
Welcome back, Shane.

I'm starting to think there's no way Shane actually wrestles in the match against Undertaker. Maybe he gets taken out and Cena ends up being Shane's "representative".

I'm not even making a joke, but I couldn't even think about creative last night. I was too pumped about my boy returning. But the running theory in the back of my head was this match won't happen in present form. It doesn't make any sense. While that's a running theme with creative, I feel like something will change. |
