WWE Raw Preview: The Undertaker, John Laurinaitis' Job, Cena/Kane and More

Tonight WWE presents a new episode of Monday Night Raw! Last week’s show was quite the great one, and tonight should be no different.

WWE has a tendency to not announce a single thing for their flagship show, and as of this writing, tonight’s show is now different.

Despite nothing being confirmed, with the events of last week’s Raw there are some events to consider going into the show.

Is There Any Competition for Divas Champion Beth Phoenix?

Beth Phoenix has had the WWE Divas Championship since October and has beaten just about every woman on the WWE roster.

While she was missing from WWE television for a few weeks, she returned at the Royal Rumble to lead her team to victory against Kelly Kelly, Eve, Alicia Fox and Tamina.

The next night on Raw she was booked to defend her title against Eve. It wasn’t much of a match, as Beth completely destroyed her and easily defended the title she has had for five months.

Beth Phoenix is out of competition in the WWE.

Who will step up to the challenge of the Glamazon and try to take the title away from her?

Is John Cena Embracing the Hate?

Since December, John Cena has been terrorized by the Big Red Monster Kane.

He returned to attack Cena and said that he did so to make him “embrace the hate.” The crowd is always split down the middle when it comes to the face of the WWE and Kane wanted him to embrace the half that constantly booed him.

As Kane’s attacks continued, and Cena continued to refuse to give him what he wanted, the Big Red Monster started to go after Cena’s best friend, Zack Ryder.

After chokeslamming him off the loading dock outside the arena, Ryder lost his United States Championship to Jack Swagger.

Cena wasn’t too happy about it and dismantled the All American American.

At the Royal Rumble the two fought to a no-contest and last week on Raw Cena beat the hell out of Kane with the steel steps.

Despite the beating that he took, is this exactly what Kane wanted?

What is the Status of John Laurinaitis?

Since John Laurinaitis was named as the interim general manager of Raw, he has made some good decisions but he has also made some very questionable decisions.

His final nail in the coffin was when CM Punk won the WWE Championship at Survivor Series.

Since that win, Mr. Excitement has tried everything he could to take the title away from the very vocal champion.

At the Royal Rumble, Laurinaitis made himself the special guest referee in the match and openly admitted before the event that he intended on screwing Punk out of the title.

That got the board of directors worried and they ordered a performance review by Triple H the night after the Rumble.

Johnny Ace didn’t screw Punk and he booked a hell of a show last week, but Triple H wasn’t buying any of his tactics.

The power had gotten to his head and it looked like Triple H was about to fire him before he was interrupted.

John Laurinaitis doesn’t think he’s fired but superstars on SmackDown mentioned on Friday that he was.

Is John Laurinaitis still the general manager of Raw or will find out his replacement tonight?

The Undertaker Wants Triple H at WrestleMania; Will the Game Accept the Challenge?

The last time WWE fans saw the Undertaker he was being carted out of WrestleMania XXVII after a hellacious no holds barred match with Triple H.

The WWE Universe have never seen the Deadman quite like that and wondered if they’d ever see him again.

With WrestleMania just two months away, it was time for the Demon of Death Valley to rise from the ashes once again.

As Triple H was about to fire John Laurinaitis last week, the bell tolled and the lights went out. The Undertaker was back and he made his intentions clear.

The Deadman wanted Triple H at WrestleMania but the Game just patted him on the shoulder and walked out.

While Triple H lost last year, he pushed the Undertaker to such a limit that he put him on the shelf for almost a year.

Did Triple H already prove the point he wanted to make last year or will he try to end the streak one last time?

Everything points to tonight being a great show!

Will it be? Tune in to find out!
