Raw Results - SPOILERS

- Jim Ross made a surprise TV return to confront Michael Cole as part of the hype for Cole's match vs. Jerry Lawler at Mania. Ross and Cole teased a fight before Jack Swagger attacked Lawler ringside, then attacked Ross in the ring. Cole finished the segment by placing Ross in an Anklelock.

Ross's surprise return was preceded by the return of Attitude Era star Brian Christopher, the son of Jerry Lawler. Christopher cut a scripted promo on Lawler playing up their strained relationship to promote the Cole-Lawler match.

- Sheamus captured the U.S. Title from Daniel Bryan in a nine minute match. In the storyline, Sheamus would have "quit" if he did not capture the title.

- Snooki & John Morrison & Trish Stratus vs. Dolph Ziggler & Lay-Cool in a six-person tag match was added to the WrestleMania line-up. The match was set up after Vickie Guerrero beat Trish Stratus to be "hired" to the Raw brand.


- The Rock appeared in the opening segment of Raw in a pre-taped segment from his home cutting a promo on "John Cena," who was in the form of a ten-year-old kid dressed in Cena gear.

- WWE announced Edge & Christian will challenge for the WWE Tag Titles on Friday's episode of Smackdown. WWE played up the E&C reunion on last Friday's episode before plugging their Tag Title challenge against The Corre's Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater this week.

- Triple H and The Undertaker did not appear on Raw. WWE aired Week 3 of Shawn Michaels's pre-taped comments on Taker-Hunter to promote the match at WrestleMania. Follow-up on the match was teased for Friday's Smackdown.

- WWE officially announced Drew Carey as the latest 2011 WWE Hall of Fame inductee. WWE did not announce who will induct Carey.

I think the obvious choice to induct Drew Carey is D'Lo Brown? seeing as Carey nicked his spot in the 2001 Royal Rumble.

My question following that comment is this: When will D'Lo Brown be inducted into the hall of fame?

2019 - to coincide with the 20 year anniversary of his Euro-Continental reign.

Like your thinking Y2D2. 2019, also known as "The year of Tatsu"

You heard it here first!

Nah you're wrong Y2. Hate to burst your bubble but he's returning next year to break "the Streak".
