The Post Rumble Raw.... What will we learn?

[TheRev]

Everyone is asking who attacked the Rock when the lights went out. Vince wants everyone to believe it was the Shield.

Tomorrow night on Raw, I believe they will shed some evidence on the matter and prove it wasn't the Shield.

Based on the Maddox and Heyman conversation, I still believe that Maddox is the one who attacked the Rock. Some of you are wondering how we can know the truth though. What keeps Maddox from just coming out and saying he did it?

Remember that Maddox always has a camera crew with him? It would make sense that his camera guy catches everything from backstage to when he runs out to when he comes back after the attack.

This could put the belt back on Punk and make the Rock want to participate in the Elimination Chamber to go for the title again.

I then predict that Cena some how costs Punk the title at EC and the Rock wins meaning Cena goes against Rock for the title at WM. I still think Punk tries to interfere with their match and cost Cena the title. While that goes on, then the Shield comes out and gets the attention of the Rock. Cena then AA's the Rock, only to reveal that Cena has been behind the Shield the whole time! If you recall, the Shield only had one minor run-in with Cena when they first started out. He could reveal that he was scared of Ryback and didn't want the title on him. It could lead to Ryback and Punk (and maybe the Rock) chasing Cena for the title for a few months.

All that being said, tonight's possible swerve would make sense and really could set the table for a great EC and WM with some nice swerves.

Looks like the IWC is done with WWE. Their internet darling lost. Lets see if TNA gets a rating spike. Lol

Punk should have won and just have the Rock win it at EC. Either way Rock would have one it one way or another. WWE is about money and marketing. WWE gains more having Rock as champion for now. WWE does not gain really anything from the IWC.

IWC have fun watching the Aces and Eights take over!

Call it a very long shot, but to me it sounded like Mankind attacking The Rock, If you listen while Rock is being attacked it sounds like the Old Mankind screaming and attacking. Im watching the replay now and plan to turn the sound way up.

Hey, like they say anything can happen in The WWE!

Rock being stripped tomorrow on Raw because the attack ends up not the Shield can certainly be possible.

However, Micheal Cole really stressed that Punk's knee was really injured again. Which can also mean he will get his remach when he has the doctors medical clearing, let's say around Wrestlemania

Look for a triple threat at Mania

Really?!?!? Brad Maddox singlehandedly put the Rock through the announcers table. That's so stupid.
I can't even fathom how anyone can think this is a possibility.
Could he play a part in it? Sure. But by himself, give me a break.

Wouldn't surprise me if this was a way to write Brock Lesnar back into the show. After all, he was associated with Heyman before he left. Not sure how likely this is. I haven't really been following reports or dirt sheets regarding Lesnar's contract status recently but I hardly ever believe what they say anyway. Not sure where it would go though.

I just really don't think it was the Shield that attacked Rock.

[VinnieSunshine]

I'd say Lesnar, but he would never need the lights to go off...he'd just come out and attack.

What if it WAS Lesnar though. What if Heyman brought Lesnar back to scre Punk. I see people throwing Maddox out there, maybe he got Maddox to go as well. Heyman set up Punk to make it look like Shield came out. Punk finds out it was Lesnar with Heyman's help and gets pissed. Now instead of the rumored Taker/Punk or Lesnar/Triple H matches we have Lesnar vs Punk with Heyman and Maddox in Lesnar's corner.

Yeah it would be a face turn for Punk, but can you imagine the possibilities of having Punk and Heyman on opposite sides? Punk and Lesnar battling, Punk and Maddox on the mic? Plus this sets up for AFTER WM when Lesnar leaves again, you still have Heyman and Maddox against Punk.

So Wrestlezone is reporting that a picture of The Shield "attacking" Rock was taken ringside.

I say this is just WWE needing a few guys to put Rock through the table and not necessarily saying Shield DID attack.

I mean, come on...was Rock going to throw himself through the table?

[Kong]

There will be no swerve. Rock v. Cena @ WM End of Story.

Brock Lesnar will not be written into the angle. It makes no sense. Conjecture is simply fantasy.

[Pedigree1]

I really dont think it was the shield that attacked the rock at all. I think it was Brock that attacked the rock. Brock was and is Heymans pride and joy. I have begun to think punk was just filler until Brock comes back. Heyman would literally crap his pants when brock is wrestling just get so overjoyed. It be a good way to turn Punk face he is such an awesome heel though it be hard just to do that to him.

If we do find out it was Brock or someone else other than the shield then does Vinnie mac give punk the title back with his streak intact? Be the right thing to do. The match was restarted under the pretense it was the shield that attacked the rock. Punk vs Lesnar at WM a guy can dream right? Two of heymans guys going at it
