RAW Five-Point Review:

With the huge announcement that Batista is returning to WWE, 2014 is already shaping up to be an exciting year. But let’s not forget about 2013 just yet. In fact, here are five things to look forward to on the year’s final Raw, tonight at 8/7 CT on USA Network.​

1. Intercontinental Title up for grabs

​

After winning a Christmas Present on a Pole Match against Dolph Ziggler, Fandango two-stepped himself into a title opportunity against Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston. Will the dancing Superstar kick off the New Year with his first title win in WWE, or will Big E’s raw power put a Big Ending on Fandango’s dreams?​

2. World's Largest New Year's baby

​

The New Year means a fresh new start for everyone in the WWE Universe. Ring in 2014 with WWE's 7-foot, 450-pound New Year's “baby,” Big Show. What will unfold when The World’s Largest Athlete dons a diaper to say goodbye to 2013?​

3. The Animal to hunt again

​

The WWE Universe received major news on a special Raw Christmas — Batista is returning to WWE! With the entire locker room instantly put on notice, who or what will The Animal have in his sights when he comes to Raw on Jan. 20? In the meantime, what might The Authority and other Superstars have to say about his imminent return?​

4. What's next for John Cena?

​

Although John Cena failed to be crowned The Champion of Champions at WWE TLC, it’s a safe bet the Cenation leader will not let this devastating defeat keep him down for long. Will Cena make a bid for a rematch with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton? What’s next for the 14-time World Champ?​

5. What is The Authority planning for 2014?

​

Together, Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Kane really shook up WWE in 2013. Can the trio top their groundbreaking decision to crown one Champion of Champions at WWE TLC? They’ve already shown they are willing to put WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton to the test. With high expectations for The Viper, will they also look to test the mettle of Divas Champion AJ Lee, young Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston, and WWE Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Goldust?

Usher in the New Year tonight at 8/7 CT on USA Network.​

There's a house show in Toronto tonight, so a few big names may be missing.

Lol @ Big Show going from main-eventing a "big 4" PPV to fucking about in a diaper in the space of a month. Fucking fat cunt.

 

[CM Punk]

^ Shit, thanks for telling me. I'll check if they still got tickets.

 

[Rogue]

So, Cody Rhodes and Antonio Cesaro won't be on this show tonight as they're gonna be working that house show. I also heard something about Orton working the house show as well.

 

[WarMachine1]

I heard something about Brock Lesnar returning. If it happens, it makes sense. They need a part timer if so many of the big talent are working the Toronto show.

It's at Ricoh where the Marlies play.

 

[CM Punk]

You buy tickets? I only found one that's for $113 which is like Row 3. Pretty good deal, but then there's parking, gas, etc.
I think I'll pass.

 

[Roi]

Bork might be back

Nah, impossible to go out on a work night for me. Just take the subway, you can walk underground from union station.

[Kairi HoHo]

Imagine if Fandango wins the IC title tonight, he'll dance till his legs fall off.

 

[Senhor Perfect]

It might be the straw that breaks the camels back as far as me watching wrestling actively.

 

[Testify]

:testify: is in tha house!

 

[THG?]

Result of the IC Title match:

Spoiler

Big E wins

 

[WarMachine1]

I see all these sources confirming that Brock is back tonight. And I'm kind of buying it considering the SmackDown spoilers. With all these top guys missing Raw to work the Toronto live event, all that is left is Punk and Bryan. I mean really, what other choice do they have but to bring Lesnar back a month early?
