Things are really starting to heat up on the "Road to WrestleMania." April 7 is just around the corner and WWE is starting to fill out the match card for "WrestleMania 29" in East Rutherford, NJ. On "Monday Night Raw" last night (March 18) from Pittsburgh, PA a new wrestler was added to the Hall of Fame, Triple H and Brock Lesnar had a contract signing, and CM Punk continued to disrespect Paul Bearer's legacy.

John Cena started off "Raw" with a typical promo, only to be interrupted by the Prime Time Players Darren Young and Titus O'Neill. Titus is wearing an Afro wig and calling him self Rufus, Titus' uncle. This segment kind of missed the mark and it was surprising Vince McMahon would lead off the show with it. John Cena ended up facing Young in a match and beat him handily.

Ryback faced David Otunga in the next match. As expected Ryback beats Otunga easily. Mark Henry starts to come out, but he is stopped by Teddy Long and Vickie Guerrero who change the "WrestleMania 29" six man tag match involving The Shield. They announce Ryback is out of the six man tag and he will now be facing Mark Henry in a singles match at the big event.

Fandango is up next and he is supposed to face The Great Khali. Fandango tries to get Natalya to say his name, but she instead instructs Khali to attack Fandango. Once again we don't see Fandango wrestle as he escapes and leaves. He did; however, approach Chris Jericho during a backstage interview later in the night possibly setting up a match at "WrestleMania 29."

R-Truth beat Damien Sandow by count out in the next match. Sandow decides to just walk out and leave after Truth started getting the upper hand. Backstage Cody Rhodes is with the Bella Twins. Kaitlyn tells Rhodes she can't meet up later and then gets a dig on the Bella Twins by telling Cody he can have their mustaches.

The Undertaker comes out and cuts a promo on CM Punk, who interrupts him on the jumbo-tron. Punk is talking like the late Paul Bearer then he "accidentally" drops the urn. Jerry the King Lawler and Micahel Cole are playing up how disrespectful Punk is being and how he made this feud personal.

Team Hell No, Kane and Daniel Bryan, beat Primo and Epico in a tag match. AJ came down and skipped around the ring trying to distract Kane and Bryan, but it didn't work.

Alberto Del Rio defeats Cody Rhodes via submission with his cross arm breaker in a good match. Swagger and Colter attack Del Rio after the match. Swagger puts Ricardo Rodriguez in the ankle lock and they make it seem like he may have broken Ricardo's ankle.

Next up is a video package announcing Booker T as the newest inductee to the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame. Congratulations to Booker T.

Sheamus and Randy Orton beat 3MB pretty handily. The Shield come down after the match and surround the ring cornering Orton and Sheamus. However, Big Show runs out and enters the ring to join them. The Shield never get into the ring and instead have a stare down and leave. It looks like we will be seeing The Shield versus Sheamus, Orton, and the Big Show at WrestleMania.

Dolph Ziggler defeats Kofi Kingston in the night's next match. Bryan and Kane come out and challenge Ziggler and Big E Langston to a tag match at "WrestleMania 29." We now officially have a tag team match for the tag team titles between Team Hell No and Ziggler and Big E.

In the final match of the night Wade Barret rolled up The Miz to retain his Intercontinental title in a triple threat match against Miz and Chris Jericho.

The final segment of "Monday Night Raw" was the Brock Lesnar and Triple H contract signing. Triple H is present, but Paul Heyman comes out with security and no Lesnar. They go back and forth, but eventually Heyman makes a crack about the loser of the match getting Stephanie McMahon, which leads to Triple H beating up Heyman's security team, then basically beating the crap out of Heyman. Triple H signs the contract and Lesnar comes out with a chair. Triple H of course has his sledgehammer under the table, but Heyman stops Lesnar from getting in the ring. Heyman and Lesnar are very happy as they announce to end the show the match will be No Holds Barred and Triple H's career will be on the line at "WrestleMani 29." End of show.
