Well, that ending was awesome with Sting lol crowd went nuts.
Not a bad RAW, a good 6 man tag match. Just another build show to Wrestlemania, what else could we expect.

Not sure I like the idea of Undertaker passing the torch off to Wyatt though.
After RAW:
As Raw went off the air, we were told that Randy Orton and Sting would be interviewed.
Michael Cole is in the ring with Randy Orton and Sting.
Cole asks Randy to comment on being in the ring with Sting to fight off The Authority. Randy says you are not used to how things work around here Sting, but he is not the type of guy who needs someone to have his back. But, it was pretty damn cool.
Orton shakes Sting’s hand.
Cole asks Sting to talk about this moment.
Sting says that he has been waiting fourteen years to get inside this ring. It feels smoking good by the way. Triple H, he meant what he said when he said that someone had to take you down. That is exactly what he is going to do at Wrestlemania.
Dark Match:
After Raw ended, John Cena and Roman Reigns beat Seth Rollins and Rusev.
Guest star for next weeks RAW:
Snoop Dogg will return to WWE as a guest star for the Wrestlemania go-home episode of Monday Night Raw at the Staples Center in Los Angeles next week.
WWE issued the following:

Snoop Dogg’s new album, BUSH, produced entirely by Pharrell Williams on Columbia Records is out on May 12th. The first single off BUSH, “Peaches N Cream” featuring Charlie Wilson, is available now with the entire album available for pre-sale.

Fans at RAW last night in the front row asked to take off costumes of past WWE stars
A group of front row fans at last night's Raw taping were asked to remove costumes after they appeared in the opening segment dressed up as a number of 1980s-1990s era WWE characters.
One of the group wrote on Twitter that they were told to take the costumes off or be removed from their seats. The group were walked out and given new WWE shirts before returning. The live crowd in Des Moines booed them when they returned.
WWE policy is to not dissuade fans from dressing up if they want, but to not have them sitting across from the hard camera due to potential distractions to the viewer. I understand that but I think WWE had a strategic error here. In a lot of ways, this was akin to penalizing a football fan who shows up all painted up to support his team because he's paid to sit in the best seats in the house. Anything that shows passion for your product is a good thing. If fans are showing up dressed as characters (something WWE has showcased for years in videos they've produced and aired) and showing how excited they are for WWE, this is a bad thing or distracting, how? Heck, call an audible and have Michael Cole talk about the WWE Hall of Fame while standing in front of the fans and talk about the ravenous nature of the audience for WWE's grand history and how you can see it all on the WWE Network, or something, but don't stamp out fans' passion. The top ticket price is over $100 for Raw.

Michael Cole Botch on RAW
Michael Cole botching the WrestleMania 31 start times early on last night's WWE RAW was apparently a big deal backstage among Vince McMahon and likely Kevin Dunn. Apparently Vince gave Cole a "hard time" in his headset and it sounded like he told JBL to join in.
-----------------
I do not think Vince had to go to nuts, there is still 2 weeks to go till Wrestlemania 31 and they push it every chance they get. One little botch should not matter and considering how much Cole talks ... gawd, give the man a break Vince.
