In case you were wondering how tonight’s Raw might open up, it was with a big video package on last night’s defeat of the Undertaker. We moved to the live crowd chanting “Undertaker” in the arena.
That chant lasted for a really long time, but was gradually replaced with a chorus of “Roman sucks.” Then, naturally, the Big Dog–who had just retired Undertaker–made his entrance to one of the loudest choruses of boos I’ve ever heard.
The chants that followed weren’t fit for TV, but they obviously happened anyway. “You suck,” “f*** you Roman,” and “shut the f*** up” just to name a few. Roman held a microphone the entire time, but was booed to silence every time he moved to speak.
Then, finally, Roman said “this is my yard now” and left the arena.

I dunno, guys, there might be something to this whole “Roman is already a heel” idea. He certainly was for the crowd tonight. I expect that’s all we’ll see of Roman tonight, so we’ll see how the story develops in the future.
Let us know what you think of Roman’s statement (if it can be called one) in the comments below, or over on Facebook!
