What happened after Raw, Questions on Jericho, Del Rio, Punk, Claire, and Mania, Interviews with Jericho/Nash/Rhodes/Rollins, new FCW signing, and Raw viewership

John Cena, HHH, C.M. Punk. Vince McMahon, and The Undertaker all got mic time putting over Shawn Michaels after Raw. He got a plaque for his contributions to the business. John Laurinaitis ate two superkicks, and the night ended with HHH, Taker, and HBK standing tall.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Thank goodness people are getting what Jericho's doing and not focusing on how predictable it is that he's losing to up-and-comers. He knows that he'll still be super-over if/when he comes back despite his losses.

2. That's just a rumor I believe. He did attack Sheamus pretty good not too long ago, though. I like Del Rio, but don't think he's at JBL's level yet. He could use some help from Creative in making him more hateable and less monotonous.

3. Punk might have been out-of-character talking about that on Twitter, while his character now feels that he should be on last.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break!

4. They must just have a really good boss/employee relationship!

5. Of the 3, I want to see Rock vs. Lesnar and Cena vs. Taker, but the latter doesn't make much sense with both of them face (and they shouldn't turn either of them).

Chris Jericho talked about balancing wrestling and Fozzy. Looks like his match with Ziggler could be before Summerslam.

WWE has signed French wrestler and Lance Storm student Tom La Ruffa to a developmental deal.

Raw viewership dropped to 4.37 million. Hour 1 continues to drag the others down (though overall the rating would have dropped anyway just from 9-11). This should be concerning WWE and USA.

Kevin Nash spoke to Grantland. Very controversial guy, and this interview won't make things easier for him.

Cody Rhodes talked.

Seth Rollins talked ahead of an NXT taping. Nothing much said.

More news tomorrow!
