My thoughts on WrestleMania:
Randy Orton and Seth Rollins had a solid match. Nothing show stealing, but a great way to set the mood for the night.
HHH vs. Sting was exciting as hell. HHH's entrance was ridiculous as all hell, but the match itself was awesome! Surprises and twists through-out. And who thought we'd see D-X vs. nWo happen?! Match of the night, for me! I completely marked out. Felt like it was 1998 and we were seeing the dream match we always wanted to see (I just ignored all the grey hair, lol). Too bad Sting lost. I was really, REALLY hoping to see him win in what will probably be his final match. Greatest of all-time in my book.
The Intercontinental Ladder match, pretty good. Not up there with The Hardyz/Edge & Christian/Dudleyz, but still lots of surprises. I really had hoped Dean Ambrose came out on top of that one. But the fans like Daniel Bryan for whatever reason.
John Cena vs. Rusev was a match made for WrestleMania. The build-up was excellent. The use of national pride was done right, without seeming too cheesy. And Rusev was built as a helluva strong heel. Something WWE has been lacking for a long time. And the match itself was a great back-and-forth battle that was worth of the build-up.
Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt delivered, too. Great match that pulled out all the stops. And dang does Undertaker know how to sell a move. I actually wondered for a minute if he did get a concussion again. He was also in great shape, better looking than he was last year, that's for sure.
And the main-event was surprisingly good. Damn good, aggressive, hard-hitting match. Exciting to the end with both men just getting the holy hell beaten out of them. And then that surprise ending! Awesome! I am SO setting my DVR to record Raw tomorrow night.

Best line of the night, "Suplex city, bitch."

So, that was an awesome Raw. Glad I tuned in. Didn't get to see Sting like I had hoped, but looks like I can see that on the WWE Network. There was lots of rehashing of last night's stuff, but that's too be expected the night after WrestleMania. The stuff in-between was great.
The Brock Lesnar part was awesome. Felt like an Attitude Era angle. This is why I'll be tuning into Raw again next week.
And John Cena vs. Dean Ambrose was a helluva match. I was so hoping Ambrose would walk away with that title. But still, I can't complain about the match itself.
This was also my first time seeing Neville from NXT. That was awesome. He reminded me of a young RVD, but even more frenetic in his movement.
I still hate Cody Rhodes, always have. I feel he's only there because of his family name. But I wanted to mention him because his new cape reminds me of Mr. Sinister from X-Men, anyone else?
And the "Waluigi is #1" sign from WrestleMania last night was back!
Most entertaining Raw I've seen in a while. I hope whoever is responsible for WrestleMania and tonight's Raw's writing gets a raise.

Does Raw not go up on the network at all? I know it's on TV, but my DVR hasn't been working right lately and I actually missed watching it on TV. Kinda disappointed it's not up lol Not that I haven't gotten my money with watching the two Hall of Fames, Wrestlemania, and now watching the Macho Man documentary on it.
