The Champ vs. The Chairman
It will be The Champ vs. The Chairman when RAW rolls into Omaha , Neb.
Last week, Cena & Shawn Michaels faced Triple H & Shane McMahon in a tag team match. However, Mr. McMahon quickly disqualified Cena for using a closed fist, banishing the WWE Champion to the back and making a Handicap Match instead. Later, after Cena returned to help HBK in the Handicap Match, Mr. McMahon punished Cena by announcing that the WWE Champion would face him next week. Will the Chairman have something up his sleeve?
Also last week, Mickie James struck again, this time laying out Trish Stratus and kissing her after producing a bound-and-gagged Ashley as Trish’s surprise gift. Will the Women’s Champion have something to say about it this week?
Plus, Big Show will participate in the Master Lock Challenge Monday on RAW. Since starting the challenge nearly one year ago, Chris Masters has yet to have anybody break his finisher. Will the mighty Big Show be the first one to do it?
Find out all this and more Monday night at 9/8 CT on the USA Network.
