Says he the decision to suspend Punk sucks and he respects what Punk did. He asks where the WWE stops and brings up the Daniel Bryan firing and signs being confiscated. First Amendment chant. Says he can be suspended for speaking his mind and he wants answers from Vince McMahon tonight. Says he wants to face CM Punk at Money in the Bank. GREAT promo. Probably Cena's best of the year.

-Miz backstage. Says he wasn't picked to be in the triple threat match due to Alex Riley and has set him off his course. Says he will take Riley out tonight and he's the Miz and he's awesome.
-Backstage Evan Bourne is with Sgt. Slaughter. Slaughter says he wants to lead the crowd in the pledge of allegiance. Swagger walks in. Says he's the one who should lead the pledge of allegiance and makes a reference to Slaughter's Iraqi gimmick.

-Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler out for Dolph's birthday celebration. EXCUSE ME~! Vickie says it's the birthday celebration for America and for Dolph because he's the US Champion.

Dolph says the people are witnessing the greatest WWE sports entertainer in his prime and says there will never be another Dolph Ziggler. Says he is the only thing they need for RAW to be perfection. Kofi Kingston out now. Kofi says without Vickie he cannot beat him. Dolph says he left Kofi in the dust and tells him to beat it. Kofi pushes Dolph and he pushes Vickie onto the cake. A brawl breaks out. He kicks Dolph into Vickie and she lands on th cake. Kofi chases Dolph to the back and Vickie is left in the ring covered in cake. This was really good.

Miz pushing Riley's head into the steps and yelling at him. Riley's head rammed into the announce table. Miz kicks Riley in the head as he's sitting on the table and Riley is on the othe side. Miz then takes off the table cover and tosses it at him. This was really good. This was Miz's best work in WWE to date besides the Daniel Bryan storyline.
-John Cena/Vince McMahon confrontation. Recap of last week's AWESOME ending. Vince says Punk deserved to be suspended. Says the fans would do the same thing in his shoes and says Punk's contract almost is over. Talks about what Punk wanted in his contract and Punk is a punk. Cena out now. Says Punk spoke his mind which Vince endorses and talks about Vince being a fighter. He questions VInce about going soft and is out here to tell him that he wants to fight Punk. Says Vince might want to hang it up since he doesn't want to fight anymore. Vince says he really suspended Punk so he didn't have to take a risk on Cena and says he doesn't want to be embarassed. Says he's afraid of Cena not beating Punk. Cena wants the match with Punk and says it sounds like the match of the year in his book. Cena keeps pushing for the match. Vince says he doesn't care what these people want and it's his company and he does what's right for the company. Cena says he busts his ass for Vince and the WWE and if he's so worried about Punk taking the belt then he's already made the title meaningless. Cena hands him the belt and walks to the back. Vince is yelling about him walking out on him. Vince tells him to wait and grabs the belt before walking to the stage where Cena is. Vince finally gives him his match and says if Punk leaves Chicago with the title then he's going to fire Cena. Vince hands Cena the belt and tosses his mic down before leaving to end the show.
-Overall this was a very good edition of RAW. None of the matches were horrible and all of the segments were great. Very good show.
