Brock Lesnar Kicks Off Raw
Paul Heyman kicks off Raw with Brock Lesnar in Boston. He says all focus goes to Hell in a Cell. Heyman says this is a fight that The Undertaker cannot win. They show highlights of WrestleMania XXX. Footage from SummerSlam is shown and how The Undertaker won. He continues to talk about how Lesnar will conquer The Undertaker again and out comes Brock Lesnar. Big Show says he was close to wiping the grin off of his face and he says Brock is a beast. He puts over Brock and tries to shake his hand. Brock Lesnar laughs and walks out of the ring.
Big Show calls him arrogant and says he wants Brock Lesnar to lose…again. Lesnar gets back into the ring and hits a belly to belly on Big Show. He hits an F5 onto Show and stands tall.
This was your typical segment with Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar. It just feels more important when Brock Lesnar appears. Do I wish we saw more? Maybe some mind games from The Undertaker? Yes, but I do think there is plenty of time to do that. Also, with their history and a continued presence of each man through video packages, does it really make a difference? Hell in a Cell seems to sell itself and so does Brock Lesnar.

Yeah, maybe we have seen it time and time again. This was still wild, fun and entertaining. Randy pairs well with Reigns and Ambrose. Roman exploded offensively while Randy really got the crowd involved. Say what you want, but Randy Orton is still the biggest face in this match and the most popular BY FAR. The guy just has the excitement factor. Roman vs. Bray can be really good, if they give more creativity in the next three weeks. Do more.
