RAW this week starts with a video recap from last week. Batista talked about how Kane got involved in Batista’s match with Punk at GAB. He made one match so he could face Punk. He also wanted to get his hands on Kane out back. Before the match Kane comes out. Punk rescues Batista. Batista had been slammed around but wanted to fight. He was not right through the whole match and Punk had the upper hand. Then Batista caught Punk in the air and hit a spinebuster. It looked like Batista would win, but JBL got involved. Then Cena rushed in to attack JBL but clocked Batista by accident. They end up fighting until they were pulled apart.

Music and pyro.

Cena’s music and he comes stomping out looking pissed wearing his new Cenation shirt (it’s ugly). He grabs a mic and glares around to the mixed reaction that gets to be more heat as he stands there. He says he can tell by the mixed reaction that some of them know what he’s about to tell them, that he’s not perfect. The way he was raised if you make a mistake you stand up, admit it and make things right. Last week he socked Batista straight in the mouth. He knows it has some consequences. He can’t believe he’s about to do this, but he’s not on the stage or hiding out back. He’s in the ring telling Batista they can settle this right now.
Batista’s music hits and he comes stomping out to the ring. Batista climbs in slowly and they watch each other intently. He says no one knows more than him that things happen in the heat of the moment. He saw the video footage and knows Cena didn’t mean to hit him. They’re cool. Cena knows Batista likes him and respects him. After he beats Punk for the title at SS, Cena’s the first he wants to defend it against.
Cena says he doesn’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but Batista lost twice. There’s lots of guys who are up for shots and Cena’s not sure it should be Batista.
Batista says he’s not sure he should argue with his logic. The reason he’s not champion is because people keep getting involved. Punk can’t beat him. And neither can Cena.
Cena says he knows Batista’s happy to be home. The fans go wild. That’s why he knew Batista would try to sneak something like that in. There’s no law and order around these days. Batista and Cena shoulde headline WM, everyone knows that - mixed review from the crowd. Why not have WM tonight? The fans go wild. Cena says they should find out who the better man is.
Batista says they’ve never face each other one on one. He’s home and there’s lots of friends and family who’d love to see him whip Cena’s ass, so he’s on.
Shane-O-Mac’s music and he comes out to the stage. He says he and Steph have appointed a new GM of RAW. They will announce him later. He’s been busy. He hit the ground running making matches for tonight. Punk will be fighting tonight (they never say who) who’s very technically sound. While everyone would like to see Cena and Batista - Cena will be facing the tag team JBL and Kane. Cena will tag with Batista.

Y2J’s music and he comes out in a full suit and tie. Cade is in tow. This is supposed to be his final Highlight Reel. The broken Jeritron 3000 is hanging in the set. He says once again last week he came out and told the truth and was vilified for it. None of us have grown up the way he has. He’s matured and taken his career and life to a whole other level. He had to do it because of us. He wasn’t seen as an athlete but an entertainer. He did what he thought we wanted for his career, not what he wanted for his career. Even though he was the first Undisputed champion he pandered to us doing his talk Show. Instead of reaching for the brass ring he played the funny guy. So this is the last Highlight Reel. He’ll put together a tribute to a man he guarantees we’ll never see in the ring again. It’s not HBK. He’s talking about Y2J. Video of Y2J as Doink putting Regal in the walls. Showing Steph’s boob job. Y2J talking down Orton. “Brutal, bottom feeding, trash bag whore” at Steph.
He asks if we liked that because he doesn’t. He doesn’t like any of that. No matter what he does or did we wouldn’t idolize him like HBK and that’s not fair. He had to do something about it. He put HBK’s head through the tron, beat HBK down, ruined his sight and ended his career. Those are the highlights he likes. In his head he did it to all of us as well.
Cade reaches for the mic. He says it’s obvious that the fans don’t appreciate him. Before Y2J took him under his week he was floundering, stuck with a singing cowboy. Unlike HBK, Y2J saved him. He’ll be forever grateful. He appreciates Y2J.
Y2J says he appreciates Cade too. He wants HBK to listen to Y2J. He tells HBK to stay home and move on with his life. Hold onto his wife, raise his precious children. The rest is drowned out by “HBK” chants. By putting the end to HBK there’s no one more dominant than Y2J. No one deserves to face Punk at SS more than Y2J.
