I saw him about 2 years ago. It was an amazing show. When you can actually get him to appear, you get your money's worth

Years back they had Vader and Goldust appear on RAW but in the meeting where the idea was suggested McMahon broke down at the mention of Vader. Vince isn't familiar with the Vader that dominated Japan.

That much? I'm pretty sure it was more than 80,000. There's a good episode of OSW Review where they discuss it.

Oddly, Vince McMahon notably dislikes Vader. He thinks Vader is a joke and can't see why people take him seriously

Roman was so interesting at Mania because he took his cocky smugness up to 11. He should continue doing that because it's so god damn interesting. Reigns going back to normal is much less entertaining.

WM3 figures are inflated. The true attendance record for WWE was a Summerslam in London during the late 80s-early 90s. They don't want to admit it because it's not really that special outside of the first PPV WWE ever did in the UK. The attendance for that was about 96,000 if I remember correctly.

I completely forgot that Bray wasn't on tonight. I bet he'll be back next week to lament his loss. Many people were saying that his career credibility resided on him beating Taker at Mania and I think that's flat out wrong mostly because it's Taker.

I kinda want a actual storyline between Nudeador and Hulk Hogan now.

It was a very interesting episode of RAW in that the first hour was a solid 10/10 in my books. The 2nd hour was maybe an 8/10 which is still fantastic; an 8/10 is a solid rating for me to give any TV show.

This is making me very depressed for the possible April 1st Happy Endings announcement

Favorite Big Black song? Mine has always been Kasimir S. Pulaski Day

Why hasn't this hit the main page yet?

I recommend you check the AVC RAW reviews and you'll discover that a great many people enjoy watching wrestling

It's been so long since I've seen Freida Pinto in something (last film of hers I watched was Slumdog) I can't remember if she's a good actress or not

We can hope for the best. By the best I mean we get people who either train hard and prove they can wrestle well (like Michelle McCool) or are heavily devoted to this business (like Maria).

I wonder, even if we cut out the Kid Ink music bit, would we have had time for a tag match that we would have been happy with?

WrestleMania did what I didn't expect it could. I marked out and cheered in my living room just like I did 12 years ago when I started watching wrestling. It was such a magical moment. If there weren't other people in my living room at the time I probably would have cheered even more.

LaToya, these reviews are nothing short of fantastic. I hope the AV Club realizes how much we appreciate these reviews.

It's the RAW after Wrestlemania, the most anticipated RAW of the year! What will happen?

Many, many people
