10 Live Observations From WWE Raw Live From Detroit

9. Detroit Brock City

They promoted Lesnar's UFC win over the weekend. The WWE is loving the fact that they get to promote a victory instead of quietly burying a loss. Steph said it was a risk and she was right. But he won, so I guess it's all good now.

The UFC/WWE relationship is a tenuous one. Better now than before, but with cross talent like Lesnar, their relationship may be more inevitable than completely avoidable. Now they get to promote him for Randy Orton at Summerslam, while maintaining the beast status. The guy to be feared more than any other wrestler on the roster.

There are no hints of weakness, and that's exactly what they want. He's still the beast. Can't believe he'll lose at SummerSlam.

Also, there was a weird CM Punk chant between segments. I love him. I'm from Chicago. But he's gone and not coming back. Time to move on.
