The New Generation has taken the ball

I didn't get to watch all of Raw last night because of college basketball, but from what I saw it became really apparent to me that the youngsters have finally taken the ball and they are off an running with it.

I loved that opening segment and just watching it reminded me of the period after Mania 14. The WWE has been pushing Cena and Orton for years, but they've always had the likes of HHH, HBK, Taker, Jericho, Show and even Edge to carry the shows. But to me, last night more then ever the last few years, I saw signs of the WWE finally giving way to the younger stars. With HBK gone, Taker taking time off, Jericho losing to Swagger, Trips putting over Sheamus, Miz getting a chance to run wild and Dibiase getting a big push now, the time has come.

We've been in this transition period since 2002 with the WWE at first bringing in old WCW guys, then pushing young guys, but relying heavily on the veterans to carry things.

I could be dead wrong here, but last night it seemed like they are moving foward with all the young guys and not looking back
