I really loved the McMahon/Cena/Bret segment on the 2-8-10 edition of Raw. All three parties made the segment work but I feel McMahon especially shined. When it comes to WWE, there are few things more entertaining then Mr. McMahon in full on heel mode. When I hear him say things like "When God created the heavens and the earth, it wasn't Adam he had in mind. It was me." I am reminded that few performers have such an amazing ability to draw such instant heat.
WWE is doing a fine job building up the McMahon/Bret feud. I eagerly await the Wrestlemania pay-off. The novelty of Bret's return has yet to wear off on me. I know many are indifferent to Bret being back, but for my own part I think it's fanatic. I wasn't watching wrestling back in Bret's prime but I have seen enough old footage to develop a love for the Hitman. As McMahan vs. Bret approaches I am reminded of hype that surrounded McMahon vs. Hulk Hogan from Wrestlemania 19. And as special as that was, I feel McMahon vs. Bret eclipses it. Hogan return so often the novelty has worn off. When the Hulkster made his recent jump to TNA I was underwhelmed by his entrance because I had seen him return about a hundred ga-gillian times.
Bret is a different story. He was done with wrestling, both physically and emotional. A year ago I would have settled with just seeing Bret stand in a WWE ring. That alone would have been astounding. But no here we are, ready to see Bret compete at Wrestlemania. Yes I know that he won't really be "wrestling". His bout with McMahon will likely be labeled "No DQ" or "A Street Fight". Regardless of the match stipulation it will be a brawl. But I'm more then okay with that.
I love a heel Vince McMahon. I love that Bret is back. It is going to be a grand Wrestlemania
