10 Burning Questions For WWE Raw (March 28)

Can anything save WrestleMania on the go-home Raw, or is this as good as it gets?

by Scott Carlson

It€™s been a long and winding Road to WrestleMania to get to this point, but we are just days away from WWE€™s signature event, and anticipation is runnin€™ mild. Seriously, is anyone seriously really looking forward to the current card? Sure, there will undoubtedly be good matches and it could be a very passable PPV, but this certainly is not €œthe biggest WrestleMania of all time.€

In some ways, WWE has been snakebitten this year when it comes to performers. We€™ve seen a WrestleMania season decimated by injuries (John Cena, Randy Orton, Seth Rollins, Daniel Bryan, Sting, Cesaro). But we€™ve also seen really poor and confusing booking, such as the Intercontinental Championship ladder match (which admittedly might be a good match) and the Shane McMahon/Undertaker bout.

All of that leaves us at the last stop on the Road to WrestleMania, WWE€™s last-ditch effort to sell people on the PPV (and by extension, the WWE Network). How hard of a sell will the company put on for fans on Monday Night Raw? The card is pretty well established by now €“ for better or worse €“ so unless there€™s a new wrinkle to throw into one of the bouts, this could be a sound-and-fury, status-quo episode of Raw. Sure, there might be a lot of stuff happening, but not much will be different at 11pm EST than it was at 8pm.

With that said, let€™s take a look at the big questions that remain on the table and hopefully will be answered in some fashion on Monday night€
