WWE RAW 23 May 2016 - 5 points to note
WWE Raw arrives on the heels of a fantastic, much-awaited return of Seth Rollins, who presented himself, minus his part blonde streak of hair, to pedigree Roman Reigns and revel in the spotlight being the last man standing all the while getting an already wild New Jersey crowd on its feet.
On Raw, we were subjected to another delightful return and a few great matches for the Money In The Bank Ladder match qualifier. A lot happened on this show that will make you look forward to the upcoming few episodes towards the build up to MITB
Here are the 5 points to note from tonight’s edition:
Didn’t miss you
The audience missed Rollins immensely, that much has been clear in the past 24 hours since his spectacular return. But Rollins, well, he’s back as a heel and as is customary did not waste a single moment to reveal that he did not in fact miss any of them and he never really needed their support to become successful.
After all, didn’t they call him a ‘sell-out’ after breaking up The Shield and weak for not standing up to challenges while he was champion? He is back to reclaim the title he never lost and this rant went on until Reigns interrupted and Rollins scooted off when the champion got into the ring.
He did not want to waste his energy with this confrontation. Shane McMahon made his way out to clear the air a bit and while he was right that this is a WrestleMania caliber match, we’re going to get these two to face each other for the title at MITB. Rollins was pumped up after getting what he wanted.
