I was thinking the same thing about Vince. This just shows how the storyline and match were thrown together at the last second because everyone was injured. The whole storyline made no sense and was fucking odd. You'd think they'd be smart enough to make Vince have a role at WrestleMania in a match he made for control of his company on the line. NOPE.

They should of NEVER pissed CM Punk off. Could be making a ton on money.

Austin also looked in pretty bad shape when he came out there. The people clamoring for one last match might want to rethink that idea. I'm surprised Mick Foley isn't in a wheelchair.

Picture this in your head...

Vince comes to the ring in the middle of the match to help Taker beat up Shane. Then Jerry Jones comes running to the ring with a chair. He hits Vince in the head, taking him out. He then hits Taker in the back but the chair shot doesn't phase him and be turns around and grabs Jerry by the throat. Before he can chokeslam him though, Tony Romo comes running to the ring but halfway down the ramp he slips and falls and tears his ACL and is out for the football season.

They missed a golden opportunity.

My actual thought was during the match - Vince coming out when Shane was on the top of the cell and begging him to come down and he will give him what he wanted - and Shane still taking the bump because he's Shane and doesn't want a handout.

My thoughts on Mania, better than expected, some good matches early on, but way too long of an event.

Liked that Baron Corbin won the Battle Royal, at least someone different.

No Vince Mcmahon, a little surprising, escpecially during Taker-Shane match.

Still popped when Austin came out.

FOr tonight, does Cena or Ambrose come after Reigns, sounds like we get some of the NXT people too and are the any other surprises.

I just want Rollins to come back. He's so awesome. Best I've ever seen. We've yet to see him as a singles competitor as a face yet in the WWE. He has a limited move set as a heel because if he did everything he is capable of doing he would get cheered.

I doubt you see him until May at the earliest.

I popped when Taker's entrance went on. Just freaking awesome to watch.

That's just the way he walks now. He's not capable of moving any faster.

Raw last night was pretty good.

Great Fatal 4-Way to end the show.

I thought it was just okay.

The best parts were the main event and the NXT debuts (particularly Enzo and Big Cass).

The Raws around Mania used to be fucking great.

He looks like an "edgy" Scotty 2 Hotty.

Can someone explain what the hell they are doing with Zack Ryder? You have him win the IC strap at Mania and then have him lose it the next night.

I hate when they do crap like that

(a) fucking with s'marks
(b) giving Ryder an issue to work with
(c) marking time until Cena takes the belt back, probably the night after the PPV Ryder tries to get it back from Miz, thus picking up with the weekly showdown that worked rather well last year.

Miz should be able to help Ryder in a program. I might be overvaluing Miz but he is likely the best heel on the roster right now at generating heat (outside of Roman Reigns )

This

And he will do whatever the hell creative tells him to.

I agree but I think they have done this plenty of times. I loved Mania,but Shane-O's fall from the Heaven's is about the only thing I remember that stands out.

They're replaying the HoF ceremony tonight @ 9 on USA.

Should basically be Sting and Michael Hayes.
