    Cole and Lawler welcome us to the show. They discuss what happened with Punk last week, and King heads to the ring. Lawler grabs a mic, and Lawler says this is not the way the show usually starts. He needs to discuss what has happened recently. At Raw 1000 he made a remark that CM Punk did not like, and Lawler says he may have misspoken. So last week when Punk wanted an apology, he would do so in respect of the WWE Title. And then, he got kicked in the head from behind. So this week, he wants an apology from CM Punk.

    Punk's music hits and here comes the Champ. Punk questions the fact that Lawler wants an apology. Punk reminds us that Lawler says he turned his back on the WWE Universe for justifiably attacking the Rock for his lack of respect. Lawler then sat in his little chair and make out Punk to be the bad guy. Punk says Lawler slandered the WWE Champion, and attacked him due to a lack of respect. Punk will put down anyone that shows his a lack of respect. Punk is sorry, sorry that all it takes to get into the WWE HOF is to beat nobodies in Memphis, slap a Hollywood actor and to act like a juvenile. He knows Lawler is jealous because he was never WWE Champion, and sorry he couldn't beat Michael Cole in his big WrestleMania moment. He calls Lawler a circus seal, and then says he is sorry about the man Lawler has become. Punk asks if he is upset, and wants to know if Lawler wants to fight. He says Lawler is just a commentator, they paid to see Punk and everyone knows Punk would embarrass him. Lawler says he wanted an apology, not a fight. He knows Lawler wants to bow up, but what would happen? Punk asks if Lawler thinks he is the best, and Punk says he will fight him. By the end of tonight, Lawler will leave embarrassed. He will either leave a coward or leave embarrassed because Punk beat him down. Punk bails and yells respect at the crowd. Lawler says he will think about it.

    Jack Swagger vs. Ryback

    And here we go. Lock up and knees by Swagger. Knees by Ryback, off the ropes and a big boot by Ryback. Slams Swagger to the mat repeatedly, and is in control until Swager trips him into the ropes. A big slam by Swagger, and then the Vader splash countered, but Swagger tries an ankle lock. Ryback slams Swagger to the corner, and then dumps Swagger on his head. Some punches by Ryback, and then a vicious clothesline by Ryback follows. Fisherman's buster by Ryback and that is all.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: Ryback @ 2:00 via pin

    -Swagger sits on the floor yelling, "That is it!"

    -Cole and King speculate that Triple H's career maybe over. We will hear from Triple H tonight.

    -Vickie is in for her announcement and tells Layla to leave. Vickie says that she has something to say. Last week, AJ made a match between Ziggler and Jericho. Ziggler won and Chris Jericho is now gone from WWE. She feels that it was an abuse of power, and she will speak up to AJ. If the board of directors are watching, she is begging that it is time for Raw to be controlled by an adult like her. And not a mentally deranged child like AJ. AJ now comes skipping out to the ring, and does her little cute routine and asks for the mic. She then slaps Vickie and attacks her. CAAAAAAAAAAT FIIIIIIIIIIGHT! Vickie bails and AJ looks deranged, yet happy. Crowd replies with YES chants.

    -Cole discusses Triple H's accomplishments in WWE, and we get a DX themed video package about Triple H.

    -Daniel Bryan and Kane will be attending Anger Management Therapy. We see clips of them in group therapy, and we see Daniel Bryan refusing to admit that he has issues, like the losers there. The leader says they are waiting on one more person. A little kid in a goat mask shows up, and Daniel gets pissed. He asked who did this, and he says he is handsome. Daniel yells at the kid, and the leader says it is his kid, who is playing a goat in a play at school. The poor little guy was upset.

    -Punk has Tweeted that he is offering the first punch to Lawler if he accepts their match tonight. Lawler grabs a mic and says Punk accused him of beating nobodies in Memphis. Lawler says he beat Briscoe, Venture, Superstar Graham and more. Lawler says he may act like a fun loving child and that he beat up a comedian in Memphis. Lawler says he respected Andy Kaufman. But Punk said Lawler was a WWE Hall of Famer, and that was true. Lawler says he has to stand up for himself, even if Punk is younger and in the prime of his life. Lawler admits he is not the best, but says Punk isn't either. So tonight, he will not back down, and he agrees to fight Punk tonight. Lawler heads to the back to prepare.

    -John Cena makes his way to the ring.

Cody Rhodes. Cody has a mic and thanks Sandow. He says this match is perfect, since Clay has the girth of the people of Milwaukee, and Sin Cara has their hideous looks. But at least he is considerate enough to wear a mask…for now.

When asked about what makes him angry, and is asked about his childhood. Bryan says this is a bad idea. Kane then says that he grew up locked in a basement and had emotional scarring when his brother burnt his parents to death. He went to medical institutions, and buried his brother alive, twice. He had a girlfriend named Katie, but that didn't work out so well. His put his father in a freezer, has an unhealthy obsession with torturing Pete Rose and once electrocuted another man's testicles.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: R Truth @ 3:00 via countout

    -Bryan throws a fit after the match.

    -Triple H appears next.

    -Here comes the H's. He has a cast on the "broken" left arm thanks to that dastardly Brock Lesnar. Cole and Matthews stand in silence to honor Triple H. Yup. Triple H stays silent to soak in the cheers a bit, and says that he will cut to the chase. Everyone wants to know if he will retire. They chant NO for him, and he says that there is one thing you learn is to never say never. At the beginning, he wanted to do two simple things. Step foot in the ring and create something no one would forget. The other was to retire from all of this before it retired him. That being said, everyone comes to a cross road in their career, and you have to ask yourself, is it time. Because you cannot fight time, it will always win. He never wanted to be the guy that was just hanging out, never hanging on too long, the guy that was waiting for the nostalgia pop. T not just get into the ring for a check, to be the guy that was too beat up and crippled inside to hold his own kids. He never wanted to be the punch-drunk fighter that couldn't have a life when it was done. But he is at that cross road, and Lesnar has made him ask the question, is he done? He just doesn't know. He is beat up, tired, and broken again. But he wanted to come into the ring and wanted to be the Game, the King of Kings, to be Triple H. He wants to say he will kick Lesnar's ass because that is what he does. But he can't say that. The truth is because he doesn't know if he can. Brock Lesnar has forced him to look into himself and ask, "Am I done?" If he cannot say that he can come back and beat Lesnar and to come back and be better than before, then maybe he has answered his own question. Crowd chants, "YOU CAN DO IT!" Maybe the crowd is right, but while he is out here, he can take a minute to say something. He can say thank you. Whether you love or hate the guys that step into the ring, they do so for one reason. They sacrifice it all for the entertainment of the fans. Everyone in the back stands there and waits for the music to hit, when they are alone, they question if anyone will care. For his career, when he walked out, he knew they cared. That always got him through it. When muscles were torn, bones broken, what got him trough it, was the fans. He thanks them again and says thanks for letting him play the game. He says he will not forget the fans, and hopefully, if he has succeeded, they will never forget him. "Thank You." The crowd chants "Thank You Hunter" as he sheds a tear.

    -Jericho's entrance music hits, and it is just Dolph Ziggler playing with the crowd. Ziggler asks if we were expecting someone else, and then says we will not see Jericho because he cost Jericho his WWE contract. And we will never, EVER, see Jericho again.

    Dolph Ziggler and Alberto Del Rio vs. Randy Orton and Sheamus

    And here we go with Ziggler and Orton to begin. Lock up, off the ropes and a shoulder block by Orton. Counters, and a clothesline by Orton. Slingshot suplex by Orton, and Del Rio in and Orton tosses him to the floor. Sheamus off the apron with a shoulder block to Del Rio, and a powerslam by Orton to Ziggler. We head to a commercial @ 1:00.

    We are back from commercial @ 4:00, with Del Rio beating down Orton on the floor. Back into the ring, tag to Ziggler and they lays the boots to Orton. Elbow drop by Orton and a cover gets 2. Ziggler works the chinlock, Orton gets to his feet and elbows out. Ziggler battles back and covers Orton for 2. Tag to Del Rio, kicks to Orton and a cover for 1.

Ziggler escapes white noise, but hits the Irish curse for 2 as Del Rio makes a save. Ricardo slide sin the MITB case, Orton makes the save, Brogue kick to Ziggler and that is all.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: Sheamus and Randy Orton @ 9:00 via pin
