What's the best Raw-after-Mania in history?
>>21466008Easily in 98 after Mania 14. You had the start of Austin's first reign as WWF champion and things beginning with him and Vince with Austin getting arrested. You had the Rock step up into the role of the leader of the Nation and have the rest of the turn on Faarooq. You had the first vignette for Val Venis. You had X-Pac's return and Triple H's formation of the new D-X during the cage main event against Cactus and Funk. It pretty much set the standard for what the 'Raw after Mania' would become long before it was really a thing

>>21466254>Show so awful that the crowd completely ignores it and just shits all over itThat's 2013 main roster WWE alright
>>21466254No amount of revisionism in recent years will change how fucking dogshit post 2010 Cena was.

>>21466275This part. I used to look back on 2007-2009 not that great but even those years I've found nostalgia for. There is no part of me be it 5 years, 10 years, 15 years, or however long that will ever find 2012-2015 Raw Supershow and recap era Smackdown to be watchable

>>21466204>You had the first vignette for Val VenisNothing topped this, best part of the show.
>>21466275Even in 360p AJ is still incredibly fuckable.
>>21466280>2002>Kurt Angle, veteranBoth RVD and Edge had been wrestling longer than him.
>>21466275Why specify “post 2010” John Cena? I could easily understand not liking Cena at all. I certainly think he’s very overrated. But he got way better once he stopped larping as a rapper or a marine. Mid/late 2000s Cena was the worst
>>21466008The one I went to >2017Goldberg came out at the end and was getting the What treatment, so he told them outright ''hey faggots, this isn't a part of the show, give me my flowers you fucking retards'' and we/they all stopped immediately. Lel.
>>21466445He wasn't great before this but 2010 was around the time he went all in on the neon shirts and comedy/super cena era, which created godawful segments like the intro in that raw anon linked or thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EA5YzUMYoE
>>21466280that was awesome anon
