Happy 25th anniversary, Monday Night Raw! For 25 long years you have dazzled and entertained millions of people, including myself. Last night's episode opened with Stephanie and Shane McMahon bringing out their father — Vince McMahon — to thank him, and give him a plaque for his fortitude and service.
Stop, smell the 🌹🌹🌹, and enjoy the plaque! #RAW25 pic.twitter.com/eJwiKDzKMv

Unimpressed, Vince began to berate his kids and fans. To be completely honest, Vince still cuts great promos. He is a natural on the mic, and his faux anger is hilarious. Things got real cold real fast, though, when an old friend showed up.

Stone Cold Steve Austin had only one thing on his mind, and no amount of Vince telling him comedy gems like "I'm an AARP member now," or even this…
