RAW Five-Point Preview:

There's still no WWE Champion and fired Superstar Big Show continues to wreak havoc in WWE. Yet, WWE COO Triple H has promised to deal with The World’s Largest Athlete on Raw, and a WWE Champion will finally be crowned at WWE Hell in a Cell. What will unfold on the final Raw before the big pay-per-view? Here are five things to look for this Monday at 8/7 CT on USA Network.

1. Hell in a Cell contract signing

Let’s face it, contract signings in WWE rarely go smoothly. It's a safe bet that Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton's Hell in a Cell Match signing will involve much more than simply putting pen to paper. With both Superstars hungry to claim the vacant WWE Title, who might strike last to gain momentum heading into the pay-per-view?

2. Punishment for the Rhodes family and Big Show?

In his latest sit-down interview with Michael Cole, Triple H promised to deal with the fired Big Show and the Rhodes family on Raw. However, the WWE COO would not go into specific detail about his plans, instead storming off the set of an interview that became increasingly tense. Apparently unfazed by the COO’s warning, Big Show decided it was a good idea to knock out Raw General Manager Brad Maddox on SmackDown. Will Big Show and newly crowned WWE Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Goldust live to regret crossing The King of Kings?

3. You decide the WrestleMania match simulation

Just how realistic is the brand-new “30 Years of WrestleMania” mode in “WWE 2K14”? Find out with exclusive footage created by the developers at 2K. Be sure to vote now for which WrestleMania match simulation you’d like to see the 2K team recreate. The match with the most votes will be shown live on Raw!

4. Is Cena ready for WWE Hell in a Cell?

Love him or hate him, you have to give John Cena credit for his much quicker-than-expected return after triceps surgery. Wasting no time after the procedure, he immediately jumped into a rigorous rehabilitation routine. At Hell in a Cell, Cena will attempt to dethrone Alberto Del Rio to capture his third World Heavyweight Championship. Will the Cenation leader succeed, or will one of WWE’s most lethal submission specialists target Cena’s freshly repaired arm with the Cross Armbreaker and instantly crush his big return?

5. Can Heyman survive Hell?

For months, CM Punk has been itching for a chance to put a severe hurting on his former friend Paul Heyman, and there’s no better place than Hell in a Cell, where rivalries are settled once and for all.The pay-per-view will mark a huge turning point for both men. If Punk fails, it could tarnish his historic WWE Title reign. How could he possibly live with himself for losing to the “walrus” yet again? While a loss would certainly hurt Punk’s ego, a defeat for Heyman could be much more painful: Locked inside Hell in a Cell with nowhere to run — if Punk manages to take care of Ryback — the ECW founder is in for a world of pain. And legions of WWE Universe members are hoping for exactly that. Don’t miss the final Raw before WWE Hell in a Cell! Tune in at 8/7 CT on USA Network.

I'll be watching this tomorrow morning.

Hmm seems interesting. I like the 2K14 show off bit but is it worthy of a preview slot?

 

[Mustafar Reginald]

Out of all the Rock/Austin Mania Matches, the one you can chose to vote to see them recreate is WrestleMania XV? That seems rather odd.

 

[Shadie T]

I voted Taker/Punk because I want to see more of the Mania 29 arena and how the match is in 2K14, We have already seen Austin Vs Rock Mania 15 in WWE 13

I voted for Michaels/Ramon myself as I didn't care for Taker/Punk though I get that reasoning. I was just surprised that out of all the Mania matches between Rock & Austin, they went with XV as an option instead of the highly acclaimed X-Seven bout or even XIX (which is my personal favorite out of the trilogy).
