From WWE.COM - Raw Five Point Preview
With an injured John Cena vehemently declaring he will be at Hell in a Cell, and WWE Champion CM Punk now finding himself in Ryback’s sights, what will happen on Monday’s Raw? Here are five key things to look for as the month of October rolls in with Raw episode 1,010.
1. When WWE Champion CM Punk was still feeling the effects of being whacked with a lead pipe by John Cena, he took out his frustrations on Mick Foley. But before he could inflict more suffering on the WWE Legend, he was confronted by the hungry Ryback — a beast who has normally crushed every Superstar who has crossed his path. The stare-down lasted only moments before Raw went off the air.
How will the WWE Champion respond to this blatant challenge? Will Ryback come looking for more of Punk? Is a match between the two only a matter of time?
2. To most men, getting slapped in the face after asking a woman to marry you is a clear "no." But will Paul Heyman take AJ Lee’s slap to the face as a "no" to his marriage proposal? Just how determined is he in pursuing her?
As for AJ, technically she didn't say "no." Could she possibly be mulling over Heyman's offer? Certainly, they'd make quite the power couple.
3. Well, that didn’t take long. On Raw, Big Show returned and decimated big Brodus Clay and Tensai. On SmackDown, he knocked out Randy Orton to become the No. 1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship.
With his sights now set on World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus, what will The World's Largest Athlete do next? Will he be content knowing it's only a matter of time before he challenges for the World Title? Will he continue to destroy any and all who stand in his way?
4. Last week on Raw, the newly formed Team Rhodes Scholars attacked the WWE Tag Team Champions, Team Hell No. Then in a Tag Team Tournament that kicked off on SmackDown, Team Rhodes Scholars found themselves firmly in the championship hunt after claiming the first victory in the ongoing tournament.
Considering their anger issues, is Team Hell No's time at the top ticking? Will Dr. Shelby's treatment help them stick together? With a target now on their backs, how will the WWE Tag Team Champions respond?
5. After John Cena was attacked once already by WWE Champion CM Punk earlier this month in a Falls Count Anywhere Match against Alberto Del Rio, Cena came prepared last week, wielding a lead pipe ... and he didn't hesitate to use it against the WWE Champion.
Cena has already declared he will be at Hell in a Cell. But, is he only engaging in wishful thinking? Will he be ready to compete at Hell in a Cell? How will Punk respond to last week’s vicious attack?
1. The fact that Ryback is listed as their first bullet point apparently means that the WWE truly fears Cena won't be ready and they need someone they can fall back on, and they're willing to sacrifice Gold...er, Ryback just to keep this thing simmering. Not a good sign on any level.
2. This could in fact be intriguing. How demented and power hungry *is* AJ? Could she sell out to Heyman to ensure her position of power?
3. Big Slow redux #2544. Could someone set up a huge Acme Crossbow and shoot Rey Misterio through Big slow?
4. Peole in chat last week were talking up Rhodes Scholars. This bullet point shows the E is going to give them a push. Will it be to the moon, or to a job?
5. How will Punk respond? Or how SHOULD he respond? He should talk about B A *, John, the good guy attacking the bad guy with a lead pipe. Instead, we'll hear more blah blah blah respect me 300+ days as champ yakkity yakkity... I swear the E is making this charismatic guy sound like Kim Jong-il! And he's dead.
