So, what I'm getting out of this is that Sting, in his first match for the highest prize of the one major company he NEVER worked for, was a one month bridge for Rollins before starting his feud with...Kane?
The f***?

Do you mind if I use your post to mention something? I don't get the whole "Who the f*** wants to see ___" idea when it comes to wrestling. Aside from maybe John Cena since fans openly boo him weekly, it's weird to assume that nobody wants to see someone. See that's why I'm always going on about why they need to bring back Haku. Hell, it's common sense to go on about that just for your own safety. You don't want to see what happens to people who DON'T want Haku back...

I liked the main event. Rollins/Kane should be an interesting match going forward.

I hope Kane returns tomorrow night as Corporate Kane and acts as if nothing happened. Even funnier if he ignores having beaten up Seth and acts like he's still Director of Operations, despite nobody suggesting that he is.

You don't want to see what happens to people who DON'T want Haku back... I don't want Haku back... unless he wants to come back. I don't want him to feel like I'm pressuring him.

Kane might have a world title shot and Tatiana Maslany lost the Emmy for Best Actress in a series to Viola Davis but at least Team Ultimate Surrender got their blimp back. 1 of 3 ain't that bad, right? Tatiana losing is tonight's biggest travesty. Jonothan Banks losing sucked too. I mean, I like Dinklage, but Banks deserved it.

Haku coming out and wrecking shit would've kinda been badass actually. Sheamus just hands him the briefcase with a "please don't hurt me Fella."

If Haku was Ambreigns' third man, he probably would've wrecked the Wyatt Family by himself without Dean or Roman. Bigass McStrongman would've been Weakass McWeakman thanks to Haku.

So the 5 or so months of Kane/Seth Rollins maybe gonna fight after Wrestlemania may or may not have been enough? Not sure if you're ready for more? You might be after tomorrow's episode of Soap Raw Do you mind if I use your post to mention something? I don't get the whole "Who the f*** wants to see ___" idea when it comes to wrestling. Aside from maybe John Cena since fans openly boo him weekly, it's weird to assume that nobody wants to see someone. The problem with this theory is that Kane doesn't generate reactions anymore. He got a pop tonight simply because nobody wants Sheamus as champion.

passed out until literally the outro during that Cena match. Gonna watch from where I was and update:
That finish was the drizzling shits. Less selling than a TNA merch stand.
Cena attacking Rollins after the bell because for some reason he's a prick.
Noticing there's somehow 20 minutes left when a gassed Rollins is facing a 56 year old man. Shit is going down isn't it?
I did love the moment of Rollins trying to blatantly cheat, like a good evil genius asshole should
OH MY. Rare we see someone go through an announce table without taking the stuff off.
Barricade spot looked painful
Sting needing a doctor a work or no?
Literally the worst Scorpion ever
Oh, a rollup finish. Guess it was a rush job. Not sure this is over.
Local Demon ruins cash in?
And that's all folks I guess.
Somehow I liked the Sting match better than the Cena one

I had no problem with a short Sting title reign but I'm delighted that Seth has retained clean and looked so strong coming out of it. Great booking. I'm also pleased about Owens and Charlotte.
I'm devastated about Jericho as the third man, though. And I'm actually a big Jericho fan. What a waste of an opportunity.

Somehow I liked the Sting match better than the Cena one Me too. All because of one word "psychology". Both men told a great story in that match. Rollins desperate to do what he had to do to survive. He knew he had been through hell and he knew that Sting was a legend and a vet who would exploit that. So he worked that match showing that he had to outsmart Sting and lead him into a trap. Sting worked it as an aging star knowing that eventually age would catch up. He worked a style that to me showed that he knew his best days were behind him but if he could catch Rollins just right he could win. I thought it was really good storytelling. The injury simply added to that.

What an odd show, old school Raw was more consistent than this "let's all meet up in the year 2000" themed PPV that seemed slightly off all night.
Owens vs Ryback was pretty good but Ryback essentially no sold all the work Kevin did on his arm/shoulder. I mean shoulder blocks? You don't need a book to tell you that's not a good idea, it's not exactly a secret.
Ziggler vs Rusev happened.
New Day vs Dudleyz - Stupid crowd! Do a Rocky chant! Could have had a more creative ending but it was still good with the only sensible outcome.
Charlotte has clearly learned from Paige the secret to getting beat down all match before somehow winning the title with your only three offensive moves. She could have got some offence in before the never-ending beat-down or maybe a couple of hope spots, there's no point in the divas getting more time if they don't compensate for it. Oh well hopefully it will lead to better things and there was some good selling from Charlotte.
Team Tatiana would be a good stable.
Why is Danny Burch in the Shield? Jericho what are you doing? Why is big Wyatt's submission so rubbish? Kept up the serviceable but odd trend.
Why are the panel outside in the cold? Missing the pre-show also means I don't know why the Authority have booked their boy in back-to-back matches.
Seth vs Cena - Usual good stuff from these two, interesting double-turn.
Seth vs Sting - Well that was a short-lived face turn from Seth as Sting quickly got me back on side, what a pleasant surprise that match was, really good stuff.
Sheamus? Kane? Oh FFS! At least they're not bickering I suppose.
