The WWE asked on Facebook is you enjoyed Raw tonight and one guy said this, which got quite a lot of "Likes".

You had Barrett leading the Nexus with Cena being "fired". He was arguably the best heel in the company. Miz was winning a title. Kofi Kingston and Dolph Ziggler had a nice feud. Other guys like Morrison, Del Rio, Sheamus all had some good momentum going. Now? You have a horribly lame WM build up happening. They buried most of the new crop of talent, they broke up Nexus and saddled CM Punk with it and made him look weak as well as his entire group. Who have they exactly looked good against? The Corre group seems insanely weak and repetitive. They have a totally forced looking tag team of Show and Kane? Huh? Kofi Kingston has no one to feud with. Drew McIntyre who had an incredible amount of momentum is used about as much as Chris Masters now. The only reason Sheamus and Bryan are feuding is they have no place for them. They debut Bourne only to have him beat a beaten down Sheamus and job him immdiately. The two guys who were gone have seemingly brought the entire roster down in HHH and Taker. Their feud is one of the more boring build ups I have ever seen for a "main event." A five minute stare down, 20 video clips and not a single word uttered to each other. Wow. EPIC! The only thing going right is Miz and MAYBE Del Rio. Though now we got two faces, a heel, and some talentless tub of lard they're trying to make into a star on Christian's level. In my eyes, 2011 has seen the WWE totally regress from the momentum they had created in 09-10. |

Its an injustice if Cole v Lawler doesn't close Wrestlemania.

Live Notes:
You guys ripping on the lack of response Bryan got don't know what you speak of. Bryan basically just finished filming the Main Event for Superstars (which actually was a pretty good Intergender Match Bryan/Gail vs Tyson/Melina) so the lack of reaction from the crowd was that he just was out there and not fresh like everyone else. That being said. HHH's promo wasn't great at all. He got a good sized Pop when he came out but as he kept talking it just killed the crowd. C.M. Punk is hilarious. The sarcastic freating of Orton's wife was great. He was also a part of the Dark Main Event with HHH/Cena vs him and Sheamus and he played to the crowd the entire time. Women's match killed the crowd again until Cole interrupted it. Vickie is a heat machine. Plain and simple. Biggest Heel reaction all night. Miz is also the goods. Trish still looks great after all these years. Also kinda a funny personal note. They tried to make it seem like Cena was via satellite after I just saw him outside walking in the back parking lot lol He wears what he wrestles in all day I swear haha |

Whatever you say.
You're the Daniel Bryan of this place (Not the real DB btw. Your warped perception of him) |

Pretty much. I love fans who bitch about everything, claim they won't watch and yet are back next week.

All this shit on Raw says a couple things:
Cena wins Snookie wins Lawler wins Daniel Bryan is still a crowd killer. |

Bryan is only a crowd killer when his music hits, which, personally, I think needs to go. The generic rock theme he had fit his style a little better, and I think a live crowd would take it a little more seriously. I'm excited about a Sheamus/Bryan Mania match though. They had a good outing on Raw last week, and if given 10-15 minutes, as Bryan has been during his PPV matches, they could legitimately steal the show.
The Taker/HHH match better deliver an above average match at the least, because it is falling far short of the build HBK got with Taker at the last two Manias. Also, the "end the streak or die trying" line translates to "I'm going to lose then retire" from what I'm personally gathering. Miz/Cena was a bit underwhelming, but I think the idea was to make Cena look a little stronger this week, only to have Miz look beastly once more come the final Raw. It makes sense. Lawler/Cole continues to be the hottest feud going into Mania. Cole is on fire right now. From the parodied JR entrance, to the Cole Mine, to shitting on the Diva matches, and physically getting the upper hand on Lawler two weeks in a row, he's getting a great build to Mania. People ask why Austin hasn't been involved. Personally, they haven't needed him. It was different during the Lashley/Umaga and Lesnar/Goldberg feud, where Austin had to cover the mic work and generate some heat. This time around, Cole, Swagger and Lawler are doing more than fine on their own. Trish Stratus and Michelle McCool is the most enticing aspect of the mixed tag match come Mania. I've seen enough of Ziggler and Morrison together to know they'll come through, but getting to see Trish wrestle WWE's current headline Diva has some great potential. Punk mocking Orton's wife was great. They should have booked Orton against someone else other than Mysterio though. Not destroying DiBiase and putting him in a match with Orton would have been better. He could have gone over, and they wouldn't have wasted what could have potentially been a great match between Mysterio and Orton. Overall, Raw was bland, but it makes writing to go home show a little easier, as I doubt they could fall this flat again. |

You ever think that WWE might be trying to make it more special when they actually are in the ring at the same time...like the go-home RAW and WRESTLEMANIA?

True, but the build has been sub par. They somehow found ways to keep HBK out of the ring with Taker, yet the build going into it was better than this year's. Personally, I was hoping for monster heel HHH to come back and start trying to destroy Taker at every waking moment. Make H look bat shit insane at ending the streak. Bring back the Triple H of old.

I'm positive that's their intention. But is it working?

To be fair, HBK did attack the Undertaker at least once and cost Taker the title so it made Taker want revenge after initially showing no interest in HBK. At the same time, HBK was developing into an obsessive character that wanted revenge from his previous Mania loss and didn't care what he did to get his rematch.
It would have been better for Triple H to keep referencing their last Mania matchup as a reason why he wanted to end the streak and say how its been bugging him for years that loss. Instead the WWE wanted everyone to forget their WM 17 ever occurred. |
