Monday night Raw after WrestleMania might be termed a major flop by the WWE universe, but the viewership numbers paint a different story. There is no denial of the fact that the show was pretty blunt to watch, missing out on expected surprises, thrills, and flawless execution. Also, several controversial events, including the poor handling of the Women’s segment, several rewrites before and after the show, and Rollins’ potential segment cut, made it even more infamous to the fans.
Given that Vince McMahon has reportedly been back with WWE’s creative, fans majorly blamed him for every mishap that happened in the show. But as per the business statistics, the show was widely successful.

The top five WWE Raw videos on YouTube include four Brock Lesnar vs Cody Rhodes feud-related clips while Triple H’s clip claiming WWE will remain the same even after merging with UFC as part of the latest deal ranked the 5th highest. The star attractions of the show paved the way for a widely successful night of programming.
Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Brock Lesnar showed up during the show
The Beast Incarnate and the American Nightmare came face to face at Raw last night. The segment saw Rhodes being brutally demolished by Lesnar, who betrayed him during the show. While the reason for the betrayal is still unknown, it seems like a new feud between them is gaining momentum. It might head into Backlash. However, we have to wait to know more about that.

The match had its roots in Cody Rhodes’s confrontation with Reigns and demand for a rematch, which has later accepted in the form of a tag team match. Lesnar joined hands with Rhodes against the Bloodline, only to deceive him later.
Speaking of the record-breaking viewership, it seems like Raw didn’t go as much bad as it has been termed. Now, we are yet to see how WWE moves forward with the new owner at the helm.
