Inclement weather may have been blessing in disguise for WWE Monday Night Raw

On a financial front, the WWE may have suffered a bit from having to postpone its show in Hartford, Conn. Monday and cancel its show scheduled in Boston Tuesday.

But in hindsight, Mother Nature rearranging the company's travel plans may have been a blessing in disguise.

That's because instead of a full-fledged show with matches and bad comedy Monday, the WWE was forced to think on the fly and film the entire show from its world headquarters in Stamford, Conn.

Outside of re-airing the top two matches from the Royal Rumble, the show consisted of interviews from Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, Dean Ambrose and eventually Daniel Bryan.

After all of the anger and vitriol the WWE caught from fans after the Royal Rumble Sunday night, the WWE caught a break in not having to face a live crowd Monday.

Where that helped the WWE the most was during the final segment involving Reigns, Lesnar and Paul Heyman.

Heyman did most of the talking, as he should have, and did a masterful job of turning at least some of the angry mob of fans into believers that a match between Reigns and Lesnar was worthy of being in the WrestleMania main event.

At least on this night, there was a spark of excitement created for that match. Lesnar and Reigns did their jobs and good business was done.

As for the show itself, everything was done in a controlled environment and people got to see these performers in a more serious, realistic tone. It was a complete contrast to the usual shenanigans that take place on a typical episode of Monday Night Raw.

Thanks to a potential mountain of snow, the WWE more accomplished in its own studios than it has in front of a live audience in quite some time.
