A long main event, but a very entertaining match. Sometimes, the end of Raw can be just pure wrestling, pure talent and an overall understanding of the business. Promote your younger guys and one of these men as the potential next world champion in waiting. With that all being said, should Styles/Cena have ended the night? Potentially, yes. I think there is more of a cliffhanger there to end the night with than this, but I cannot complain that WWE is giving these guys plenty of time and plenty of exposure in the main event. Also, who gets the last spot? My bet is Randy Orton.
