Monday Night RAW after WrestleMania 39 took a promising start as WWE announced a star-studded main event. Cody Rhodes, alongside Brock Lesnar, was set to face Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa in a tag team match. At that point, it appeared WWE had some big plans for the RAW after WrestleMania 39. However, the show was nothing but an average edition of Red Brand. As a matter of fact, fans could even see the main event that was made official earlier.
After any WrestleMania, the following RAW episode is significant, as WWE books some returns and starts new storylines from there. However, this year, the biggest return on the show seemed Vince McMahon back into WWE creative.
Multiple dirt sheets reported WWE made a few last-minute changes on the RAW after WrestleMania 39 episode. It was stated that the man behind those changes was none other than Mr. McMahon. However, disappointed over the booking, fans jammed WWE’s Twitter post with their angry views.

It’s what we all wished for years…and yet he is backstage laughing at us as we continue to want him gone and he continues to stick around… I have been saying this for the longest…as long as Vince McMahon continues to be around, this company will never be free.

Through tonight’s main event, WWE might have killed two birds with one stone
Everyone wanted Cody Rhodes to finish his story at The Grandest Stage of Them All. However, he was booked to fall prey to Roman Reigns’ championship reign. Now, it seems WWE, with the help of tonight’s main event, has written him off the title picture for now.
As noted above, the tag team match planned for the main event didn’t even start. Instead, Brock Lesnar turned heel and destroyed The American Nightmare.

It seems as if WWE has killed two birds with one stone. They turned The Beast Incarnate into a heel and at the same time, wrote Cody off the title picture.
Nevertheless, this year’s RAW after WrestleMania could have been a lot better but WWE missed the chance. Let’s see how the creative team books this week’s SmackDown Live.
