WWE RAW started off with a major surprise during Monday night's broadcast, as Shane McMahon made his return to WWE television after an absence of several years. Shane interrupted the opening segment, which consisted of Vince McMahon awarding the Vincent J. McMahon Legacy of Excellence Award to his daughter, Stephanie McMahon. A few minutes into the segment, "Here Comes The Money" played through the arena PA for the first time in seemingly forever as Shane-O-Mac made his way down the ramp. He received a massive ovation from the crowd in Detroit (who chanted "holy sh**"), causing Shane's eyes to visibly tear up as the crowd chanted his name. Shane got on the microphone and said this award was the "straw that broke the camel's back." He said his sister didn't deserve the award, and he spoke about all of the problems WWE has had under the leadership of herself and Triple H (he mentioned falling stock prices, tv ratings and several injuries). Vince pleaded with Shane to not do this in public, and Shane asked his dad "she doesn't know, does she?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzDP3ltd8tA Shane spoke about how Vince messed up on a deal years ago and he was there to make the save. He said he cut a deal with his dad that allowed him to leave the company and experiment in other business ventures, but he said his absence didn't mean he lost his place in line (to take over the WWE one day). Stephanie asked her father if it was true. Vince said some of it is true, but he asked Stephanie to leave the ring so he and Shane could talk. He said he would finish presenting her with the Legacy of Excellence Award later. Stephanie told Shane "I will never forgive you for this" as she left the ring. When it was down to Shane and Vince in the ring, Shane ended up telling Vince that he wants to make sure the company is still around by the time his three boys become fifth generation McMahons running the show. He said that right now, he's not sure the company will exist the way things are going. He told his Dad he wants a chance to run RAW. Vince agreed, but he said Shane would have to do something. He would have to win one match, with Vince choosing the opponent. Shane agreed and Vince announced that at WrestleMania 32, Shane McMahon will have to defeat The Undertaker in a Hell In A Cell match. If he can do so, Shane McMahon will obtain control over RAW. If The Undertaker wins, Vince gets Shane's "lock box" so he can't hold any of these business agreements from the past over his head ever again. What do you think? Are you excited to see Shane McMahon wrestle The Undertaker at WrestleMania? Let us know in the comments section below.
