So did Cena say anything of note on that Network exclusive interview? I can't find it on there.

Thoughts:
Of the 3 people who haven't been consistently there, 1 shows up tonight, and doesn't do anything. Which is fine I suppose. Brock is pure presence. Paul killed it yet again, but no Reigns to confront him when he's hardly ever there to begin with and WM is weeks away...I don't get it.
A really lame "Vigilante vs. The King" video plays hyping me for their match not one bit. A really stupid Sting video plays with his voice changed for zero reason.
I've already ranted about the Undertaker thing in the thread devoted to it.
I said it there, I'll say it again I swear this is them knowing that no one is going to pay full price for Wrestlemania and will get it regardless on the Network so they're saying "f*** it, we'll do what we want, and how we want to do it". We = Vince.
I'm reaching astounded levels of disbelief at what on paper could still be a solid card with good build. It's not the line-up the majority of us would pick of course, but it's still pretty easy to see feuds that could write themselves even with what we're given.
The IC Title and Orton/Rollins have more momentum going into 'Mania (and they even did that stupid bluff thing with Orton for weeks) than UT/Bray HHH/Sting and the Championship Match which is being kept alive on life support weekly by Paul Heyman.
Cena proving (in my words) why he's consistently one of the greatest heels of all time.
The clusterf*** of the IC Title is fun, Truth is killing it out there, but Ziggler, Bryan, Stardust, Goldust could be doing two singles matches. They're still chanting "Cody" at Stardust, there is interest in that feud. Bryan and Ziggler would be a beautiful match to watch.
I'm running out of f***s to give. All of it seems totally on purpose at this point. Like this much apathy towards booking the biggest event can't be an accident. Can it?

That's probably because they're the two angles that are, by the numbers, getting the most TV time devoted to it if you include SmackDown (I know, "Nobody watches SmackDown LOL"... seriously, two thirds of the RAW audience is not "nobody", so let's accept that already). Half the guys in those top three matches wouldn't even give SmackDown a single thought, so the only guys showing up to build those matches on SmackDown are Reigns and Wyatt, one of which is not really considered to be a ring or mic expert at this stage (so not a lot of time is spent there) and the other is only cutting promos at the moment. The actual job of filling out the TV shows with matches and the like have gone to the IC ladder guys and Orton/Rollins, which gives them the time to... go around in circles somewhat building their angles via 24/7 rule and selective amnesia, but it's still building, so... *shrug*.
