10 Best Post-WrestleMania WWE Raw Moments

10. Rock And Cena Set A Date (2011)

There are plenty of valid criticisms to be made about the two-year feud shared by The Rock and John Cena. It was too long, for one thing, and it probably shouldn't have closed out WrestleMania a second time (and certainly not for the WWE Title).

But, cynicism aside, it was a history-making encounter. The former was the biggest star of his generation and the latter the leading in his, making their coming together a clash of wrestling ideologies, a match fans simply needed to see.

Laying the seeds a year in advance felt weird in terms of a wrestling storyline: if they really hated each other, why would they agree to hold off on their blow-off match for so long (well, besides the huge WrestleMania payoff)? But it undeniably helped generate anticipation ahead of the show.

The moment they set their date was also useful in putting the the events of the previous night into context. WrestleMania XXVII's go-home bout was far from a classic - in part because this dynamic had left The Miz completely sidelined - and it only began to make a modicum of sense after Raw.
