Seth Rollins is still the WWE World Heavyweight Championship following "WWE Elimination Chamber" on Sunday, but the night ended with Dean Ambrose taking the title, and Triple H is not pleased.
The unofficial season premiere of "Monday Night Raw" starts tonight following a star-studded and memorable “WrestleMania 31” from Levis Stadium with a capacity crowd of 76,976 fans from all 50 states and 40 countries. Many of those fans will be present tonight for perhaps one of the best shows of the year: "The Raw After WrestleMania" show.
"The showcase of the immortals" has arrived for its 31st year, and the WWE's "WrestleMania" card is proving to be a show-stealer. Even the "Kickoff" show is proving to have its own substantive card. From Levis Stadium, "WrestleMania 31" is essentially a showcase of NXT alumni as most of the card features at least one WWE Superstar who entered NXT, the developmental training grounds created by Triple H.
From the Staples Center in Los Angeles, the final WWE "Monday Night Raw" before "WrestleMania 31" arrives on Monday, March 23 as WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar is scheduled to confront his WrestleMania challenger, Roman Reigns.

CM Punk went on Colt Cabana's "Art of Wrestling" podcast last Wednesday to explain his departure from WWE, saying that he was fired on the day of his wedding to AJ Lee and accusing WWE of misdiagnosing several injuries he suffered during his tenure with the company. Also, The Undertake may not be able to make "WrestleMania 31" in 2015 to battle Sting and WWE makes signing Uhaa Nation a "top priority."
