By Josh Isenberg

Triple H In-Ring Interview

wwe raw reactionThe Game comes out and talks about Daniel Bryan. He says his hand was forced when fighting with Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania. Triple H says the reality is that he will end the Yes Movement. Triple H says he is going to start the "Reality Era." Triple H says that he has the power to make everything happen. He says that the reality is that Triple H is going to walk out WrestleMania XXX as WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

Reaction: I love this version of Triple H. This might be some of his best heel work in a very long time. Say what you want, but facing him at WrestleMania is just as important than any other match. This segment felt real and almost felt like a shoot. He talks about how he has the power to make things happen. He pushes the blurred line of reality to the right point. To make this better, I would have had Bryan come out from the crowd and try to attack him. He did not, but this may not be the end of Triple H tonight.

Score: 7.5/10

Hulk Hogan with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Joe Manganiello

Hogan talks about WrestleMania XXX and then welcomes the two guest stars of Sabotage. Arnold says it is wonderful to be back again in the WWE. He talks about Bruno Sammartino and then says he is happy to stand in the ring with Hulk Hogan. Joe says he is pumped to be here in Brooklyn. They talk about "Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal." Arnold asks if they have room for two more guys, hinting to themselves. Out comes The Miz, who talks about his movies and the match at WrestleMania. He says he is going to win the battle royal and Hogan says he is standing in Hogan Country. Joe tells Miz to try and make them leave. All three end up getting a shot in and Hogan tosses him out of the ring.

Reaction: Not the best segment ever, but it gave Miz more importance and a bigger spotlight than normal. Whoever gets in the ring with Hogan will get better exposure and The Miz is a guy who is much better as a heel. I liked it. Also, Joe Manganiello could easily be a WWE Superstar. He has a great look and held himself well on the mic.

Score: 5.5/10
