RAW headed in the right direction.

On top of all that, Cena and Rey Mysterio had one of the best title matches on RAW I've seen in a while(almost 30 minutes). And CM Punk returning with a great new theme song and an apparent build to a match with them at SummerSlam. This is how RAW should be every week, and if this is any indication of the direction they are taking, I'll be a happy fan....

Raw had 3 people returning to the show, that will not happen every week. That is like saying TNA had an awesome show the first night they went live with 5 surprise people showing up.

Two WWE title shots? Two different champions? The Rey vs Cena match was blown way to early. It should have went to the next pay per view, with the next night CM Punk coming out (Or have him come out the same night Cena gets the belt). Either way, I NEVER want to see the title go to two different people on a RAW ever again.

I know this kind of show won't happen every week. 3 ppl won't return every week, and 2 different champions won't be crowned. My point being this kind of out the box thinking helps the shows. It's the kind of stuff we used to only see during the Monday Night Wars.

Certainly, this kind of booking only improves the shows. Gives them more excitement and shock value. Which honestly is a form of booking I never thought WWE could pull off again. With the pattern of improvement we've seen lately, I'm starting to think it can be done again.

Also, having Punk return makes sense. Some think it's too early, which could be more mythodically built towards. However, fan interest in this is so high, anything Punk related is hot now. Having the top star on the show only keeps focus on him. I know I would like to see a Punk vs. Cena WWE Title unification match at SS...
