Color me curious but with Vince in the hospital and out of the loop it looked like Raw was an enjoyable product. Matches were given a good length of time and both the crowd and the wrestlers seemed to enjoy it more. If Smackdown Live follows the same could Vince possibly see the writing on the wall and finally let his kids run the business or still be like Queen Elizabeth and hold everyone back?

Whether Vince McMahon was there or not, everything was still approved by him.  Vince physically being there or not has no bearing on the product.

If the WWE is so concerned about talent bleeding and trying to avoid concussions, why book the Lesnar/Orton finish as it went down? (I know, I know, that's what Vince wanted.)   I understand the storyline need for blood, but the concussion risk seemed absolutely unnecessary. This has got to be a case where an old school blading would have gotten the color they wanted, the reaction to Brock they wanted, the sympathy for Orton they wanted, with much less risk of injury to Orton. Thoughts?

I agree with you 100%.  Only WWE knows what the long term plan here is, but I agree that it was a worthless risk.

I missed the fight due to being at work, I'm curious what song CM Punk came out to during his UFC 203 entrance?

"Cult of Personality" by the legendary Living Colour.

Now that the Usos have turned heel, do you think the Usos need a manager who can cut promos for them? Somebody like Tony Atlas would be a great example in my opinion.

No, I think they can cut promos on their own just fine.  TONY ATLAS?

What is Johnny Gargano's official status with WWE? I see that he is still accepting outside bookings from looking at his Twitter.

Gargano starts full-time with NXT and the Cruiserweight division on Raw later this month.
