United States Championship Match
Antonio Cesaro (c) vs. R-Truth

- We get a recap of Vickie Guerrero playing AJ's messages to Cena this past week on Raw.

In the Arena:

AJ Lee makes her way out to the ring and immediately heads over to grab a mic. She says she's sorry she has to do this, but she feels like she's left with no choice. Vickie Guerrero has tried to make her life a living hell. She thought that Vickie was just being a vindictive witch, or a word that rhymes with witch, but then she realized that when you have a secret, the best thing to do is accuse someone else. And that's what Vickie is doing. Vickie makes her way out screaming 'how dare you', and reminding AJ of her position. AJ says she's a seeker of the truth, and she was at home when she was sent this photo. A photo a Ricardo Rodriguez and Vickie is shown where they're eating burritos. Then a photo of her with JR with BBQ sauce all over her face.

Vickie is screaming that this is all untrue, and she's not happy. AJ shows a photo of Vickie in a bathing suit dancing alongside Brodus Clay. Vickie says this is ridiculous. AJ says Vickie's evidence, and this so called scandal is ridiculous. AJ wanted reality to slap her in the face. Vickie says it's not going to be reality, but Vickie who will slap AJ in the face. AJ stares down Vickie, backing her up. She says she doesn't want to fight, and neither does Vickie. If AJ puts her hands on Vickie, AJ will lose her job, but the same applies to Vickie. Out of nowhere, Tamina attacks AJ from behind, and puts her down with a Samoan drop before heading to the top for a superfly splash.

Vickie laughs as she stands over AJ before dropping the mic and heading off to the back.

Backstage:

Josh Matthews is backstage with Paul Heyman. Heyman is mad when Matthews talks about Punk's tricks. Heyman says no one gives Punk the credit he deserves. Punk is the 8th longest reigning champion of all time. While Cena is busy chasing AJ, Cena has lost to Punk more times than Heyman can count. While Ryback has been bringing us back to the caveman era, Punk made history by beating Ryback. Punk is prepared to survive and thrive in the triple threat tonight because Punk is hands down the best of the three. Punk is not only the reigning World Champion, but he's the best in the world.

- We get a video recap of Big Show and Sheamus over the last few weeks.

WWE Championship
Triple Threat Match
CM Punk (c) vs. John Cena vs. Ryback

John Cena is the first man out to the ring, and he gets a mixed reaction that seems more on the negative side initially, but at least the crowd is reacting to something, so I guess that's a good thing.

My Points:

High ones:

Zigglers selling
The majority of the Show v Sheamus match
Both 5 v 5 matches
Triple threat.

Low points:

The heart attack references
Tamina
Divas match
Cole + Kings commentary ( Cole just sucked n king wasnt needed)


Things I wanna see happen in the near future:

The WWE not screw up with the NXT guys
A Street Fight at TLC for Sheamus v Show ( not a chairs match...)
Kidd v Cesaro (as it would be fun and Kidd deserves it after his showing last night)
Cena v Punk in a TLC match.
Cole to get more real world knowledge

Debuting by interrupting the main event at one of WWEs main PPVs, yeah I'm happy with that.
WWE, don't muck this up now!

I really hope they give Ambrose the security guard gimmick full time. I mean its always a sure fire winner of a gimmick!

So Ambrose finally makes his full debut, hopefully will be followed up with a really good promo on raw tonight so he can show the world exactly why he is so special!

Seeing as after all your hype all Ambrose did was interfere in a match, I'm disappointed. I was expecting him to walk on water at least.

Now Roman Reigns debut that's big news.

Match of the Night is really tough imo

Show v Sheamus was decent once again but the ending kinda cut the edge off for me.

Team Foley v Team Ziggler was decent, teasing turns and excellent chemistry (apart from Otunga)

Cena v Punk v Ryback was good as well, Ryback held his own well and the ending was a suprise.

Triple threat match wins but all the matches were good for a PPV

Still overrated.

Bull you just beat to the drum of what everyone else tells you to, a few weeks back you thought he was the savior too but then when others backlashed you fell in line.

because his not as good as you making him out to be!

And how do you know how good he will be?
It's very much in the hands of how creative book him and how the fans react, the same as every other wrestler going.
He has big backers in HHH & Punk and both him and Rollins have been held off a debut due to them wanting to get the right story introduction for him, hopefully this is it though I can concerned he may be fed to Ryback tonight and Vince sticks 2 fingers up to the IWC.

I was thinking the exact same thing, I can see all three men in the middle of te ring cutting a promo on why they did what they did, stating that they wanted to make an impact and who better to make an impact on than the most dominate superstar on the roster. Then ryback comes out squashes all three within 30 seconds.

How about the pre-show?
What a match!
I think that's the best pre-show match I've seen

I didn't really like the ending to the triple threat. Punk reign is getting really dull now and having random nobodies save him every match isn't helping

Survivor Series and no title changes?!?!?!?!

Random nobodies????

Wash your mouth out with soap!

Went to bed after the divas match, glad I did.

Disappointed to read the results, Ziggler surviving was a bit safe/boring but needed due to his poor booking with the briefcase.

I'm completely uninterested in the title picture.

Just hope they pull the trigger on these guys, have them do something of interest over the next few weeks, first match at tlc, team work at rumble rather than cut a promo tonight and fade into nothing like nexus.

I was thinking the exact same thing, I can see all three men in the middle of te ring cutting a promo on why they did what they did, stating that they wanted to make an impact and who better to make an impact on than the most dominate superstar on the roster. Then ryback comes out squashes all three within 30 seconds.

On a similar note, I predict a 3 on 1 match at TLC, Ambrose, Rollins and the other guy v Ryback. Ryback to win, of course.

Hopefully he won't bury them and his revenge can be eliminating them in the rumble

relieved to see that cena was able to walk it off at the end there

infact he almost ran it off

3 on 1 Tables match could be fun!!!

Now want to see the stable of Heyman guys be a dominant force. Maybe have them help Punk beat Cena at TLC after Cena demands one more match. Punk says he's beaten Cena all year but he'll give him one more shot on his terms. It'll be a TLC match. On the night, Punk announces it was on his terms and brings out a special guest timekeeper - Dean Ambrose, a special guest ring anouncer - Seth Rollins, a special guest cameraman - Roman Reigns, and a special guest referee - Brad Maddox. This confirms that Punk and Heyman were behind Maddox screwing Ryback at HIAC. After a gallant effort the numbers game is too much for Cena and Punk retains.

He'll face The Rock at the Rumble but Vince announces that if anyone of Heyman's guys interferes then Punk will lose the title. At the Rumble, Brock Lesnar jumps the rail and F5s the hell out of The Rock. Punk retains. Vince cant do anything about it as Brock wasnt there at the time.

The stable is dominant. We see Heyman lead them out to the ring every week. Followed by Ambrose, Rollins, Reigns, Brock Lesnar is in tow, they all get in the ring and out comes CM Punk simply holding his title in the air as he enters.

I'd have Cena trying to rally the locker room to take them on but no one wants to, they say no one can take the title away from Punk.

Cena promo one week and he confronts Heymans guys. He says he's found someone willing to fight from the front, and out comes a returning Triple H.

At EC its Cena and HHH v Punk and Lesnar. The faces get the win after HHH beats Lesnar.

Mania - Cena beats Punk in a triple threat with The Rock.

Just to pose a question, anyone else worry for Rollins, Ambrose (both of whom I really really rate, particuarly Ambrose who is the real deal if handled correctly) and Reigns (whos average at best from what ive seen).

Sure they were debued in a spectacular fashion in the main event, but it was a main event that didn't exist 3 weeks ago, which suggest that this is not some carefully laid out grand plan, and two of the 3 guys were NXT's face champion (and given NXT is recorded in 3 week blocks it will be interesting to see how they get over that) and a guy who only debuted at the end of October. Plus they have postioned themselves in the position of cheif Ryback feed.

Early signs to me suggest WWE have really shot themselves in the foot here, playing two of their brightest stars (and Reigns) in a story with no long term thought and a role that suggests that they'll be squashed by Ryback.

But I am excited to see Ambrose and Rollins, particuarly Ambrose, finally on the big stage, and hopefully under the protective wings of Punk and Heyamn they can be nurtured, so I'll be tuning into Raw tonight and see what happens.

On the subject of the actual PPV, I missed the middle hour live but have caught up with WHC match, entertaining PPV all in all.

I'm actually hoping that they haven't aligned themselves with Punk and this attack was just a demonstration that they can interrupt as and when they please. Yes it smacks of Outsiders/nWo/Nexus/Radicals but I'd prefer them to be their own voice rather than having to be Punk's stooges and not get the time to showcase their mic work.

Like Aces and Eights?

I thought the PPV was very good. I have said this a lot which is getting pleasing again.

The 2 5 on 5 elimination matches were very good and showed us what Survivor Series is all about. Tyson Kidd had a great performance he usually seems well up for the PPV's as shown at Money in the bank this year. Think this should be noticed and a chance at the US title should be on the cards for him. Dolph Ziggler did steal the show with a good performance. The Miz i thought did well. I think in the next few weeks we will see something
that will get the miz to become a real fan Favorite as we saw none of the superstars wanted to tag him in due to "lack of trust

The Big Show vs Sheamus was good but not as good as there Hell in the cell match, but i think that was more down to lack of expectations for the match then and this time will expected a lot. The finish wasn't actually to bad for me but i just felt as if the match could of done with another 5-10 minns or so. Guessing we will get a chairs match at TLC judging by the ending.

Finally the triple threat match was good. Reminded me of the main event on Wrestle Mania 20 at times. So every PPV since Summer Slam Punk has won/kept his title in a lucky way. Be interesting to see what Ambrose, Rollins and Regins can bring to the WWE. Good start by taking out Ryback. Hopefully the WWE dont mess them up. As said before Ambrose has a lot of pressure on him already due to a lot of hype on the internet.

Also the pre show result

Yes but

a) It's decent as there's no stupid 'who might they be' angle
b) It makes more sense
c) It doesn't have Devon
d) It's not in TNA
e) It has Dean frickin Ambrose in it!

Seriously though, it's an invading stable angle, I'm not kidding myself that it's breaking new ground but it is introducing 3 highly rated (well 2 and Roman Reigns - seriously WWE that should have been Cassius Ohno and I'd have possibly markgasmed) immediately into the big picture.

It was only yesterday I said I hoped they don't rush these guys for the sake of it, point still stands

5 years ago the Major Brothers interrupted a World Title Triple threat match to help Edge, it done them no good

Reading some comments above, there is no pleasing some people.
How is Ziggler being the sole survivor safe or boring, he hasnt been booked to badly recently either. It makes perfect logical sense to have the up coming soon to be world champ to go over an established star like Orton, I was concerned Orton was going to be the one left standing.

How long was Cena laid out then still got counted for the 3. There seems to be some kind of change happening imo

I havent seen anything of nxt or of these guys but it reminded me of the radicalz and i am excited to see what they can bring and offer.

I concur with you Bret.
Everyone on the site likes to think of themselves as not being like the IWC because they're not on the Ambrose Express and falling for the hype.
Yet they immediately turn into the IWC and slate what's happened or what they think will happen based on a run in at the end of the PPV.
How about actually just enjoy it and see where it goes? We like to think that guys we want to see get a rough deal yet we have Punk as a year long champ, DB getting constant huge exposure and has been WHC in the past year, Sandow growing in stature, Cesaro getting a lengthy reign as US champ, tag teams coming back into the picture, divas getting less airtime.
Yet still we moan.

I agree some people are never pleased.

I gave up watching a few months back cause I was growing bored and disinterested. But, I kept reading just in case something changed or got better. I have to say on recent stuff I have read I might actually start watching again.

Although I'm not sure CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler alone can get me through 3 hours of watching Raw. Are the improvements elsewhere (Daniel Bryan aside) that much of an improvement ie Sandow/Tag Teams/Cesaro etc?

I think that was a top class PPV, WWE continue to manage Ryback really well. Showed him as so strong as that Cena n Punk had to team on him, and they popped that ending.

So many things expected, that was not one. Been waiting for Ambrose and Rollins to be given their chance. Rollins worries me a little as hes been mr babyface on NXT and now hes a lackey heel. But still, whole thing was really exciting.

Only thing I didnt like was Ziggler not cashing in, mainly because it was such an obvious time to cash in with Show dismantled. A good tease I guess, but seemed to me a pointless attack by Sheamus if they were not gonna jump Dolph in.

Theres still stuff to make you wanna turn off, but I think some of the little things are getting better. Plus the Rumble to Mania bit is always a marked improvement so you can ease yourself in now.

3 hours each week is a little too long to watch it live though thats for sure

Really looking forward to RAW tonight...I have been critical of RAW & the booking as of late & as always expected them to finally have Punk lose the title last night....once again they surprised me by keeping the belt on Punk..

As has already been mentioned I think the product has been getting better each week & at least this current run is seeing plenty of logical booking.

Can anyone inform me of the standard of the Punk match (annoying fell asleep with about an hour left having forked out £15 for it)...was it good & how did they all come out looking at the end?

Raw has been sublime for a good few months now. Even at 3 hrs.
Agree with Wilks, I couldn't watch it live, but on TiVo with adverts, divas and recaps cut out, it's only about 90 mins long, so it's ideal.

Really looking forward to tonight's episode. See some stills from SS

Sublime

What a word that is for describing something

On the subject of Punk, I never seen him not retaining, I really couldn't see them not going with Punk/Rock after the RAW1000 and swapping the title between him and Ryback/Cena would have devalued the Rock/Punk match

Also it would have been harsh on Punk to drop the belt one day before the 1 year anniversary, imagine if the belt was your wife or girlfriend and how gutted you would be if they broke up with you.

Would have preferred Mason Ryan to Ambrose

Whilst it wasn't the greatest PPV it did what it need to do

CM Punk/Cesaro/Show stayed Champ
Ziggler/Sheamus looked Strong

Certainly interesting with the 3 new NXT guys not sure where it's heading. leads to lots of questions which is what a decent end should do

Why did they do it?
Are they working for Punk?
Is there any more of them?

First comment in months!

Can anyone see a Ziggler cash in tonight? I can imagine a scenario where Punk is celebrating his year long reign when Ryback and/or Cena come down and leave him knocked out, with the door open for Ziggler to become the new WWE champion, losing it at the Rumble.

Doesn't Ziggles have to cash in on the WHC since he won the SD MitB?

You're completely right, my imagination ran away with me there. Would like to see that scenario happen tonight if possible though.
