Think about who is hosting Raw tonight. Could somehow they go back in time and change the match rules between taker and hbk? or will it be a blast from the past going out for HBK with all of his greatest matches redone by todays superstars?

March 29, 2010: Rob Corddry and Clark Duke from Hot Tub Time Machine
The night after WrestleMania, step into the whirlpool for what is sure to be a hysterical night as Rob Corddry and Clark Duke from the film Hot Tub Time Machine guest host Monday Night Raw. In the aftermath of the biggest event of the year, Corddry and Duke will surely keep everyone laughing and step back in time to revisit the events of the previous night at WrestleMania.

With all due respect, both of those ideas sound horrible.

they really do.

Last night was the best way to end it. I'm sure you'll see some matches be announced for Extreme Rules and such, but anything that has to do with HBK and anything more than his giant send off needs to be nixed and now

that will happen, or I could see them having Swagger cash in the MITB quickly.... I doubt they want him holding the breifcase very long

They will probably have Swagger cash it in in the next 2 months or so with there being another MITB coming up in the summer.

As far as time travel, that's pretty dumb and even WWE wouldn't do something that nuts. HBK will get his big sendoff tonight, which he deserves.

Even though I've never really been a big fan of HBK, they need to do a reunion like they did for Ric Flair.

HHH just gave a shout out to the clique, before his butt buddy Shamus was shoved down our throats again.

Very well done tonight on Raw to send Shawn off properly. I'm sure more went on after the show (HBK did super kick Jericho following the show) ala Flair from 2 years ago.

Haven't watched wresting in a while but I tuned in for this. I loved HBK back when he was a Rocker with Marty Jannetty. I'll never forget how shocked I was to see him give Jannetty the sweet chin music during an interview with Brutus the Barber Beefcake and end The Rockers. Twas a cool send off. The Hitman is lookin pretty rough these days. I know it was an emotional moment but I would've loved one more "suck it" before he left the stage.

He'll be back in a few months...Maybe not as a wrestler, but as GM or something...which will eventually lead to him getting back into the ring...He's got good matches left in the tank.

I think he's gonna stick to his word... at least I hope he does... it really was a great way to end things for him last night.

Overall the rest of Raw was ok.... Swagger is just dumb, leave him on the mid-card with his lisp and forget this HUGE push he's going to get.

Also a fan of the New Hart Dynasty... they looked like they're pretty good wrestlers, and Natalya isn't bad looking either :)

I have been waiting for a long time to see the Hart's get a big push.

I hope last night was the start.

I remember Shawn Michaels when he was a jobber in the old Mid-South Wrestling days. Here is a funny link I found on Youtube

When ESPN ran old AWA shows, he was on almost every night.

Is that JR doing the ring announcing?

It was...The Harts looked very impressive. They have great in-ring ability...I wonder how their mic skills are?

I think HBK will be back to push Summerslam...He'll be a guest ref...or GM or something.

If HBK has one more match in him, it will come at Mania next year, after being inducted into the HOF the night before, and it will be against HHH. They have never fought at Mania and it would probably be a great way to really send him off into the sunset.

Swagger is very good in the ring (if you doubt it, look up his match with Cean on Raw from last year). Yea he has the lisp, but if you hate him that much then he is doing his job as a heel.

The sendoff for Shawn was perfect.

I didnt think he would get a huge one like Flair because I honestly didnt think he would want one.

Did anyone else catch the little shot he sent to Flair about honoring his word? Atleast that is how I saw it.

Those guest hosts were just awful. Right up there with the worst since this thing started.

I saw it as well. Told my Fiance that he was calling out Flair right there.

The guest host is fine, at times. I'd prefer it be people somewhat involved with wrestling, like the Pete Rose one was nice because of the past with Kane.

But the random celebs are pretty boring. Would love to see Paul Heyman come back, but he seems happy where he's at now.
