After a polarizing WrestleMania 41 filled with peculiar booking decisions and inconsistent quality in the ring, WWE got plenty of its juice back with an all-time episode of Monday Night Raw. The show ended in stunning fashion, with Bron Breakker flattening CM Punk and Roman Reigns and aligning himself with Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman.

Paul Heyman reaffirmed his commitment to making Seth Rollins the new top star in WWE, and he found backup with Bron Breakker helping take out Roman Reigns and CM Punk. John Cena appeared for the first time since capturing his 17th world championship, but he found resistance from longtime rival Randy Orton.
