Last week, Triple H returned to WWE and handed down perhaps the worst beating Brock Lesnar has ever suffered in WWE. What will unfold when The Game comes to Raw in Buffalo, N.Y.?
Also coming to Raw is WWE Champion The Rock. Will he cross paths with his WrestleMania 29 opponent, John Cena?
Where does CM Punk go from here?
For more than a year, CM Punk stood atop the mountain as WWE Champion. He held onto the prestigious title for 434 days, making him the longest-reigning WWE Champion of the last 25 years. (CHARTING PUNK’S REIGN). Last week, Punk lost a WrestleMania No. 1 Contender’s Match to John Cena. With just a month to go, can the former WWE Champion find a way to showcase his talents on The Grandest Stage of Them All?
What will Zeb Colter say next?
Ever since Jack Swagger returned to WWE with Zeb Colter at his side, controversy has surrounded the outspoken duo. Their views even caught the attention of media personality Glenn Beck. But Beck hid from WWE when offered a chance to respond on Raw. What will Colter have to say next?
Will The Shield strike back against The Viper?
Last week, The Shield dismissed the recent efforts of Ryback, Sheamus, Chris Jericho, John Cena and Team Hell No — who had thus far tried and failed to stop their reign of terror. When The Celtic Warrior delivered an open challenge to the men in black, Randy Orton lashed out with an RKO on an unsuspecting Seth Rollins.

“The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase, Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes and “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan will be among the WWE Legends to appear on a special “Old School” edition of Raw, WWE.com has learned.
It remains to be seen what these WWE Hall of Famers will have in store when Raw turns back the clock Monday night, but it’s clear the WWE Universe is in for excitement as ring icons mingle with today’s Superstars on one of the most unpredictable and nostalgia-laden stops on The Road to WrestleMania.
Who else will drop in on the festivities when WWE goes “Old School” on Monday Night Raw? To find out, tune in at 8/7 CT, only on USA Network.
Expecting:
Long Hunter promo, maybe with Heyman
Taker interrupting Punk
Cena/Rock meh
Ambrose will eat a Brogue Kick or possibly a Codebreaker if Jericho is there
Legends that we have probably seen since RAW 1000
and might even hear some 'Woooooooo' :flair
I'm hoping that Hacksaw comes out , shouting Hooooooooooooo. Then promptly gets piledriven off the stage by Punk (whose still mad at Vince for letting Swagger off the hook!!) and Duggan is never ever able to be on an old school RAW again
Apart from that: Undertaker/Punk, the old skool sets, and Di Biase's laugh.
Also, since Brock isn't supposed to be there, will Trips lay out the challenge, only to delay the making the match official until next week, or will Brock show up via satelite or have Heyman answer for him?
If they don't book at least two or three matches each on Raw and Smackdown for Mania, then I don't know what their problem.
At the least, WWE is making a case for the sorriest booking ever.
New Age Outlaws on Raw will be fun to see. But wonder what "old school" is, cause seems like old school to WWE is just anything that happened before 2013 lol. We'll have guys like Flair,Duggan and stuff, NAO as well, and probably even people who haven't been in WWE in like 5-10 years counting as "old school"
--Of the names that were listed last night and advertised for Raw tomorrow, we do know that Ric Flair was flying today into Buffalo so he is booked on the show. Our understanding is Jim Ross is not booked on the show even though he was listed in some cable guides. We got reports that Honky Tonk Man, Gene Okerlund, Sgt. Slaughter and Mae Young flew in. Okerlund was always scheduled. We don't have confirmation on Honky and Young.
Pipers Pit with Punk, him screaming at Punk saying how he couldn't get the job done, how he isn't the best in the world, pushing all of Punks buttons, Punk is about to snap and take it out on Piper only for the arena to go dark, GONG... IT'S THE UNDERTAKER.
I'm more excited from a nostalgic point of view. This is going to be early-mid 90s which is when I started watching wrestling, it would be absolutely epic to see the ropes, the stage set up, hopefully the darker lighting etc.
