RAW REBOUND: We get a recap of the opening segment from Raw. I actually really liked this segment. I enjoyed how Stephanie and Vince heeled it up while being completely justified. They shoot to the McMahon family argument in which Triple H begged Vince and Stephanie to let him wrestle before getting denied. Again, I like how this is playing out so far.
