6 Ups And 4 Downs From Last Night's Raw (April 17)

1. House Of Bore-ors

Well into the third hour of Raw, we got a pre-taped promo with Bray Wyatt. It was hyped as a special message for Randy Orton, but really, it could have been any message for Randy Orton at any time in the past few weeks... or last year... or really, any video Bray Wyatt ever made for anybody.

It was basically just Wyatt waxing not so poetic about fear and what he was going to do Randy Orton, all while "disturbing" imagery like wolves and empty hallways flashed on the screen. Wyatt didn't say exactly what a House of Horrors match entails, but he did mention that the burning would start where it began. If that means they're going to have a match in the burned-out Wyatt compound, that has the potential to be an absolute disaster.

Thankfully, this immediately followed a backstage Chris Jericho promo that was much better, and saw Y2J call Mike Rome "Mike Tom" and add Elias Samson to The List of Jericho. That one was a long time coming.
