REVIEW

This was a decent episode of Raw. Cena and Wyatt's promo in the beginning was creepy, over the top, and incredibly awesome. Cena seems to really be cracking from the mind games of The Eater of Worlds. I can see this rivalry ending with Cena being put to pasture. He hasn't had a break in a while and this would be the perfect opportunity for him to take a nice long vacation. This feud will probably not end at Extreme Rules, but when it does , the results are sure to be monumental.

The segment with Daniel Bryan, Brie Bella, Stephanie, and Kane was also awesome, if not a bit predictable. I loved how they kept showing the mask throughout night and then all of sudden it was gone. Kane coming out from under the ring brought me back to The Attitude Era and really established Kane as The Big Red Monster once again. The wrench was also a nod to classic Kane.

I don't know why, but the feud between Evolution and The Shield seems to be missing something. Overall, I think it's that I'm just tired of seeing Batista, Orton and Triple H. While they are all talented inside the ring, I find them to be three of the most boring wrestlers to ever lace up their boots. Triple H plays a good heel, and he was awesome back in the day with DX, but he has gotten stale over the years. Hopefully The Shield will decimate Evolution at the conclusion of their rivalry and send them to the wrestling retirement home. It seems to be going that way and as I mentioned in previous coverage, this is turning out to be a symbolic rivalry that signals the dawning of a new era in sports entertainment.
