If they left Cena of Raw this week, they could have built next weeks Raw around "John Cena Returns"
...they did the same thing before :/

I don't agree with the shoehorning of Cena at the tail end. They could have at least built tension between Cena and Del Rio throughout the show. Cena could have shown up first, interrupted by Del Rio earlier in the show. It would have at least set the stage for a Cena run in.
but what does wrassleGAF know? We're just fans. We're consumers, not producers. I agree with Net_Wrecker. What kind of monkeys are writing this show?

We have no idea what's good for business.
Shoe-horning in Cena to close RAW is good for business.
Cena's reaction would make more sense if it wasn't screwed out of the title several times in the past and was fairly complacent with it. I expected this sort of anger from him when Rock screwed him at Wrestlemania. But nope, comes out all happy go lucky and smiling with a bubbly attitude. Here, Del Rio didn't do anything to Cena, attacked Punk and now Cena thinks Del Rio personally offended him with his roid rage faux anger that still comes off as more hilarious rather than menacing. Fucking stupid WWE.

Cena vs. ADR @ NoC.
Weeeeeee!
Meanwhile, the WWE "creative" have CM Punk off chasing C-O-N Spiracies.
So the plot thickens on this C-O-N .. spiracy!
- Mr. H's denies involvement and wants to apologize to Cena face to face. Only left ticket(s) for Nash. Yes, that's plural.
- Mr. H's walks into Cena's lockerroom
- Nash says "it's business". Implies that Mr. H's is a liar!
- CM Punk delivers a scathing promo against Nash. Implies maybe that Nash is hiding something. Nash is given security protection. Punk thinks it's Mr. H's protecting Nash.
- Steph greets Punk in Mr. H's office. Says something the lines of getting what they deserve. Punk ponders ... fade to commercial

It's funny how Punk's promo was supposed to change the business for the better, but all it did was bring HHH, Steph, and Nash back to tv.

It has made the shows a million times better then what WWE has been giving us in a long time. I'd say things have changed quite a bit.
I'm wondering what type of change you were expecting?

This show was a complete train wreck. The rumble may very well be the worst rumble I've ever seen, but the Midnight Express/Rock & Roll Express match was....wow, just shouldn't have happened. Best bits of the show were Terry Funk's promos and Foley trying to explain to Bob Backlund the concept of iPPV, but there really were no highlights in the ring. Everything was awful except for maybe a minute or two of Nash/Waltman vs The Outlaws.

Why is it so fundamentally difficult for WWE creative to write something, to say "yeah, that's good" and then just fucking stick with it? If half of what's written in the dirt sheets can be believed the whole creative process sounds like one huge cluster fuck.

Punk promo was great. Really seemed off the cuff, good segment by him and old man Nash.
Del Rio opening promo started off awful but he was able to turn it around and it ended up decent.
Anyways funny Nash videos of the day!

Apparently this is some of WWE Superstars show results..Lets just say Superstars gotta new jobber instead of Jack Swagger..
Santino Marella defeated Primo.
Zack Ryder defeated Drew McIntyre.

You know what? THAT would actually be really intriguing and would fit Austin's MO too (not giving a damn about anyone, DTA, etc.) Only thing is, I don't think Austin and Nash have any connection. But it could be a good way to introduce Austin to the storyline.

Money in the Bank is available on DVD and iTunes today. I'd have picked it up on Blu-Ray, but it doesn't look like it's available yet even though Joey Styles swears it is on Twitter. I bought the Cena/Punk match on iTunes for $2.99 for the HD and SD versions just to show support to the WWE that this is the kind of thing I want to see.

Which is a shame. I'm a fan of McIntyre and he's def. improved over the years in his in-ring ability and in showing a personality with a lot of in-ring antics and stuff. He was def. not ready when he debuted, but he should get into the US Title fold sooner or later.

A million times better?BillRiccio said:
Really? REALLY?
Since the Money in the Bank PPV? Really?
Is commentary better? No.
Is Cena still his cheesy, stale, inconsistent self hogging every RAW main event? Yes.
Is match quality better? I would say no. Punk's only wrestled once on RAW since MITB. Rey has been the shining star of most of RAW's recent matches and he's on the shelf again.
Has anyone in the midcard gotten over from this? Possibly Beth but she just lost a title match to Kelly Kelly.
The only positive change I can see from RAW since MITB is that Ricardo is back and R-Truth hates spiders. Neither of those things has anything to do with CM Punk bringing "change". Smackdown has improved more over the same timespan than RAW has but that's due in large part to the undercard being built around sustained feuds.

I would say the commentary has gotten better every week. JR of still finding his way back but there has been improvement. Yeah the match quality has gotten better. Matches have been longer and guys are actually telling stories in the ring. lets see morrison and truth are having a good mid card fued. Dolph and A-ry and having a decent fued. It seems like tag teams might be getting pushed again. And all the girls not just beth and natty are being taken more seriously.
It not all going to change 100% in a month. They are putting on better shows that make you want to watch next week. There is no perfect wrestling show.

I enjoyed on Raw that Morrison said how much he wanted a falls count anywhere match then within a minute went for a roll up.
Bit of a messy Raw really, Nash didn't do anything for me, kind of stumbled through his promo.

random pins to me are one of the most annoying things in wwe. I know the gimmick is that they're trying to expend the other guys energy by making him kick out but it always comes off as lulzy.Jeff Albertson said:

Can't wait for the Main Event Mafia to starting taking over the E.
Drew McIntyre should have never been moved from Smackdown to Raw.
He was doing just fine being the #3/4 heel on Smackdown, and with the lack of depth on SD now, he could be a valuable part of that show.
Instead, he's stuck in dark matches and on Superstars for God knows what reason.

Superstars has a strange effect of making the guys on that shows IWC darlings if only for a week. Guarantee if Drew was back on SD next week no one would give a shit, just like Tyson Kidd being on SD for the past few weeks getting no buzz, despite a ton of praise for a lot of the matches he has done recently on NXT or Superstars.Guzim said:
