I thought it was a decent RAW.

Loved the Cena/Lesnar stuff and the Jericho/Henry/Punk thing.

Lesnar's persona is interesting as he is acting like a heel but as is the uniqueness of Cena even the worst heels will have some fans and because he is a returning massive talent he is getting a face kinda reaction. Hearing him praise Laurenitius is obviously WWE way of making him a bit more heel, so i expect to see more of that.

The initial scrap was brilliant and reminded me of the Tyson/Austin thing. Wrestlings star vs a world fighting star. Austin gave the finger, Cena slapped Lesnar and then chaos.... and blood (hows that for legitimacy). Though that Cena smilling through the blood was a great moment... like he enjoyed it. My only gripe with this was did we really need big name wrestlers out there? refs, backroom staff, security and other workers i can understand but guys like Bryan, Sheamus, Del Rio. Why would they care?

The ending was good too (if not predictable) with Lesnar coming through the crowd to attack Cena and give him the 2nd F5 in as many weeks. The match was announced for Extreme Rules which Lesnar will undoubtedly win but hopefully the feud will then continue through to the next PPV.

Oh yeah also love seeing Tensai back as a legitimate worker and have to say really impressed with Rhodes and Ziggler again and Santino is just awesome.
