I kind of disagree. The crowd was hot at RAW, but I thought last years post-Mania crowd was the best crowd I've ever heard. RAW was okay, but not spectacular in my opinion. Where as, Mania was probably the best in a very long time even with its set backs.

Most often, RAW after Mania is better than Mania itself, but I just don't think that was the case this year. It started with a damn good match between Bryan and HHH. The tag match fillers were conveniently short. The battle royal was pretty solid for a cluster fuck with Cesaro establishing himself as a major player. Cena vs Bray Wyatt was even good. And I despise John Cena. Even with the loss, Wyatt proved himself to be one of the top guys in the WWE. Taker v Brock was not that great of a match but it was a hell of a fight. Taker going down at Mania stunned me and just about every wrestling fan on the planet. Evidenced by complete silence in a crowd of a little more than 75,000. Bryan conquering the odds for his Mania moment was exactly why we are fans of the game.

Overall, excellent WrestleMania.

RAW had its bright spots, no doubt. But, in my own view it was not far away from a typical RAW. I might be the hardest guy in the world to impress. Mania impressed me. RAW did not. And we all know what happens next. WWE writers will now phone it in until January.
