If you wanted fireworks on the Raw following WrestleMania 39, you likely awoke this morning disappointed.
Outside of the beginning and end of the show, which were both exceptional, the famed Raw following ’Mania was largely a letdown.
The highlights featured Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar. Rhodes interrupted Reigns’s interview in the ring, challenging him to a rematch. Reigns and Paul Heyman were quick to reject that offer, but they did accept a tag match between Rhodes and a partner against Reigns and Solo Sikoa. Rhodes’s partner was revealed to be Lesnar, and the match was scheduled to be the main event for the show. Except that it never took place—Lesnar turned on Rhodes before the match, then pummeled him throughout the final segment of Raw.
