With the RAW after Mania being hyped through the roof, it did not disappoint. One of the reasons is because Finn Balor made his return to WWE RAW and made an immediate impact. With Brock Lesnar as champion, there are going to be a lot of guys right below him wanting an opportunity and none more popular than Balor. His return showed him team with Seth Rollins to take on Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens. If WWE wants to do this right, you gotta build him up slower than last time. Putting the title on him less than two months on WWE RAW was a risk that did not take. Yes, he is popular. Yes, he is talented. No, he should NOT be the guy that beats Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship.

He did not come back from injury, but Kurt Angle did come back to WWE RAW as the new General Manager. His comedic timing is already paying off, with a funny backstage bit with Enzo and Cass. Kurt Angle is going to succeed as a General Manager because his humor and intensity is not forced like the person before him. Interactions between him, Stephanie and Triple H will be really beneficial for him if he wants to get back into the ring. I can see this happening at SummerSlam as well and giving him one more run before retiring in a year or two. If he can still go, I am all for it.

How about that return of Erick Rowan? The only notable thing is his mask was different and Bray Wyatt quickly remembered that he did not need the massive red bearded goat.
