RAW AFTER WRESTLEMANIA didn’t give us the big surprise returns…

…but it gave us something way more important.

👉 direction.

⸻

Oba Femi didn’t celebrate… he arrived.

CM Punk delivered one of the most real promos we’ve seen in a long time… and Cody Rhodes stepped into it with a completely different energy.

The Intercontinental scene didn’t reset — it continued, and that matters.

Sol Ruca didn’t feel like a call-up… she felt like she belongs.

Brock Lesnar?

That didn’t feel like a send-off.

That felt like the end.

⸻

And by the end of the night…

you could actually see the board being set.

Rollins vs Breakker. Roman vs Jacob. The Vision vs The Street Profits.

⸻

👉 Backlash is already starting to take shape…

…and it might be a banger show.

🚨 COMMERCIALMANIA. 🚨

That’s what WrestleMania 42 felt like.

Not because the matches were bad…

but because WWE forgot what WrestleMania is supposed to BE.

Night 1?

👉 Rushed 👉 Cut short 👉 Completely stripped of that WrestleMania feel

Night 2?

👉 Better 👉 More complete 👉 Still dealing with the SAME problems

We’re breaking down:

👉 Why the matches felt rushed 👉 How the commercials KILLED the flow of the show 👉 Why the biggest feuds didn’t get the time they deserved 👉 And what this version of WrestleMania says about where WWE is going

We’re talking:

👉 Brock Lesnar vs Oba Femi — and a SUPERSTAR being MADE 👉 The ladder match that blew Night 1 out of the water 👉 Sami vs Trick and how they wasted a perfect opportunity 👉 Demon Balor vs Dom — and why it felt pointless 👉 Jade vs Rhea — the ONE match that got the length right 👉 Cody vs Orton — and the confusing double-turn energy 👉 Punk vs Roman — a real WrestleMania main event

And the bigger question:

👉 Has WWE lost the feel of WrestleMania?
