REVIEW

This was a pretty exciting episode of Raw as attention was shifted away from Daniel Bryan due to the real life death of his father earlier in the day. Kane's attack on Bryan seemed to be a way to both intensify the feud between the two, and also as a way to write him off of TV appearances as the WWE Champion grieves his loss.

The highlights of the show were the matches in the Intercontinental Championship tournament. Bad News Barrett and Sheamus had the best match of the show as the two brawlers had a very physical and fast paced slobberknocker. Both Sheamus and Barrett are looking better than they have over the past year and are helping to make the IC Championship relevant again. My prediction, however, is that the belt is going to be put on RVD. He is apparently signed to a short term contract that will probably expire some time in the summer, so WWE is going to want to do something with him while he is with the company. This is just speculation, but it would be awesome if a legend like RVD was the guy who made the IC Championship important again.

The feud between Evolution and the Shield is heating up and is building towards an epic showdown at Extreme Rules. This has the potential to be a classic passing of the torch moment. Cena's feud with Wyatt will most likely be settled once and for all at Extreme Rules as they are scheduled to face off in a steel cage match. There hasn't been a memorable cage match in quite some time and these two competitors have the potential to deliver a true instant classic. Their match tonight was decent but of course Cena was made to look invincible as he nearly pulled off the win against all 3 members of the Wyatt Family. I really hope Bray Wyatt comes out on top of this rivalry, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen.
