 Legends Come To RawMarch 10, 2014
Get your inner 10-year-old ready, because not one, but two legends of the squared circle are returning to WWE’s flagship show this Monday. The impending arrivals of both The Undertaker and Hulk Hogan are sure to carry major implications for WrestleMania 30, especially since both Superstars will be on hand to address their respective tasks at The Show of Shows – Undertaker’s match against Brock Lesnar, and Hogan’s duties as host.
Speaking of WrestleMania, Daniel Bryan’s bid for a “Game”-changing match on The Grandest Stage of Them All faces more resistance than ever before; can the “YES!” man overcome his latest humiliation at The Authority’s hands? Here’s WWE.com’s Five-Point Preview for Raw, and be sure to check out WWE Network’s live Raw Pre-Show at 7:30 ET for further insight, and Backstage Pass to see Raw’s aftermath at 11:00 ET.
1. Dead man's tale
Brock Lesnar is champing at the bit to face The Undertaker at WrestleMania, but as Paul Heyman outlined last week, the mad scientist has his own reasons for tempting The Streak a second time. According to Heyman, it was The Phenom’s defeat of CM Punk at last year’s Show of Shows that drove The Straight Edge Superstar to abandon Heyman altogether in late 2013. The Deadman has been confirmed to appear on Raw, likely with a response for both The Anomaly and his handler. What will he have to say?
2. A crack in The Shield
Things are … well, they’re not looking great for The Shield these days. WWE’s formerly inseparable trio are on shakier ground than ever before, thanks to Seth Rollins’ abandonment of the group in the middle of their second match with The Wyatt Family last week. The stunt that cost Dean Ambrose & Roman Reigns the match was done, according to Rollins, in order to make a point. However, can “the architect” of The Shield be taken at his word? Or has the glue finally come undone?
3. Outlaws' revenge
The New Age Outlaws’ improbable run back to the WWE Tag Team Titles came to a crashing halt courtesy of The Usos, who finally fulfilled their destiny and captured their very first tandem title. Road Dogg & Billy Gunn are playing their chips very carefully when it comes to cashing in on their rematch clause, though. WWE Main Event and SmackDown came and went without The Outlaws throwing down for the WWE Tag Team Championship once again; might they roll the dice on Raw?
4. Breaking news, brother
The host with the most is coming back Monday night, and he has big news in store for the WWE Universe. Hulk Hogan, fresh off his big homecoming two weeks ago, is headed back to Raw for a follow-up, and word is he’s packing a huge announcement for WrestleMania 30. What does The Immortal One have up his sleeve, or lack thereof? (It is Hogan, after all; the man never met a tanktop he didn’t like.)
5. Live that fantasy
WWE COO Triple H claimed he was sick of dealing with Daniel Bryan’s “fantasy” after the “YES!” man reiterated his WrestleMania challenge to The King of Kings. True to form, Daniel Bryan then kicked The Game square in the head. Needless to say, Bryan is adamant as ever about facing Triple H at The Show of Shows; The Authority and Batista’s joint beatdown of the fan favorite left him lower than ever at the conclusion of last Monday’s Raw. Bryan has always overcome the odds, though he’s racking up enemies faster than ever now. Can he defy those odds and get The Game to play ball? Find out this Monday at 8/7 CT, when Raw goes live on USA Network, and be sure to check out WWE Network’s live Raw Pre-Show at 7:30 ET and Backstage Pass at 11:00 ET!-WWE.com |

I do not need to see the Usos vs the Outlaws ever again.
They are ruining my happiness at the Usos title win by putting them in these lame not fun re matches with the Outlaws.

Still can't see Batista vs Orton happening tbh. Bryan or Punk need to be added to the match. Anyways should be a good RAW, last weeks show was impressive. Plus we got Taker, Hogan, more Bryan/HHH, Heel Batista, a good Memphis crowd and hopefully some more undercard WM matches to be made official.

This Shield drama is gold. Feuding Shield is so much better than united Shield.

If CM Punk was going to return in time for Wrestlemania, it would have been last week where viewship was high and the pop of the crowd would have been overwhelming. At this point, I see his return to the ring in time for a high profile match at Mania, highly unlikely. As far as Hogan's announcement goes, I see it being something as underwhelming as announcing the Wrestlemania I main event going into the Hall of Fame.

I hope this episode picks up right where last week left off. Cause last weeks RAW is how it should always be.
Hopefully Hogan doesn't "Dixie Carter" his announcement.

I don't care if I'm 18 whenever that gong goes off, I'll mark out.

I see two triple threat matches coming together tonight- All 3 members of the Shield against one another for the U.S. Title and Swagger vs. Big E vs. Cesaro for fhe Intercontinental Title. I can also see Bryan vs. HHH being confirmed tonight.

Lol at people still thinking Punk might return. Give it up, folks.
Hopefully Hogan's announcement is that in his contract, he has the power to make matches for Mania, and makes HHH vs Bryan with the stip that if Bryan wins, he gets inserted into the title match.

i expect Hogan's announcement to be hugely disappointing or not that huge at all.

I didn't watch Main Event last week. I watched a few minutes of Smackdown. I'm not DVRing Raw this week. Call me when Big Nose stops being a blight on the programming.

Download our App like 90,000,000,000,000 other people! and watch every single week the greatest match we have ever witnessed in the 100+ year history of professional wrestling What would make you say that?! |

I hope people don't get too hyped for Hogan's announcement. I'm sure it'll ultimately be something we really don't care about. A new show on the network about Wrestlemania? He'll ref a match at Mania? It'll just be something we roll our eyes at I'm sure.

The Official 'dolph 'doghouse' ziggler should drop a pipe bomb on Linda McMahon inducting warrior & Sandow should win another MITB only to fail at his second cash in attempt because that would be absolutely hilarious & Miz still looks like a naked mole rat & oh..Big E (strogen) was beat out in the needing a bra department by Magic Johnson's son by a hickory smoked mile son' officially official Monday thread
