Rock vs. Brock Lesnar Wrestlemania 29 RAW Thoughts

Rock vs. Brock Lesnar at WWE Wrestlemania 29

This past Monday on Raw the Rock vowed to once again become WWE Champion.

The crowd was super hot for this show with Daniel Bryan being incredible over.

The spot with Brodus Clay confronting Jack Swagger and Dolph Ziggler was great. The headbeat to Dolph was awesome and it will be great to see what the Funkasaurus becomes.

It was interesting to see WWE mentioning wrestling in Japan and I thought the Lord Tensai debut was pretty cool.

Extreme Rules in Chicago should be cool with the Punk-Jericho match. The spot where Jericho smashed the bottle over Punk’s head was effective and the build should be good for this match.

Brock Lesnar’s return was over huge and it will be interesting to see if the build into WM 28 is the Rock challenging Lesnar for the WWE title.

Lesnar reportedly got a monster deal and has had notoriously been very hard to deal with which should make for interesting stories throughout the year. Lesnar is well off moneywise coming off his UFC run so does not have that desire and he seems to be a very hard-headed individual. During Lesnar’s run in New Japan he was paid 50K per match and didn’t try that hard making it hard for him to get over in Japan. How hard will he work in this role?

This was a great RAW especially with the crowd so it will be interesting to see how things progress.
