Between last Friday's SmackDown and last night's Raw, the slow but steady changes in storytelling and presentation are starting to become more evident in the Triple H era of WWE  It's not an entirely new landscape, but there are certainly positives and a more organic feel to everything  I thought how Dexter Lumis' return was handled last night was[...]
