Pyro goes off, and Jerry Lawler welcomes us to Monday Night Raw. He immediatly begins hyping John Laurinatis' job evaluation by Triple H, and the fact that today, there is no Michael Cole. As he mentions Michael Cole, he pops up onto the screen. He welcomes us all to Monday Night Raw. He want's to start by making a few apologies. He says sorry to Jerry Lawler for their whole feud, saying he just got caught in the moment. He also apologises to JR. He says 1 person, who he's not sorry for, is Daniel Bryan. As a result of this, he saw Triple H before the show, and sorted out a few things. 1st of, the Raw SuperShows are ending, they are going back into the usual format. Next, he is permantley moving to Smackdown, but not as a commentator, but as a manager. He says that he can't let Jerry Lawler commentate the whole show by himself, so here has suggested a new one. He is the former ECW announcer - Joey Styles
Joey comes down to the ring, but Jerry is moaning about having this person as his partner again. He also said that he doesn't accept Cole's apology. Joey offers a handshake, but Jerry refuses. Joey says it's nice to be back, and says that today couldn't be a better day to come back, as Johnny Ace will be getting fired today. Jerry says his name is John Laurinaitis, and show some respect. Their argument is paused when they see Brodus Clay and his dancers make their way to the ring

Backstage Interview with John Laurinaitis. He's asked if he's worried about losing his job tonight. He says that last night, he called the match right down the middle. If the Board of Directors didn't want him to be impartial, then he has reason to lose his job. But tonight, we will find out the 5 challengers, for CM Punk's world Title. Now, John says he doesn't want any alliances in the match, so for our 1st qualifier, it will be Dolph Ziggler vs Jack Swagger. Also tonight , it will be CM Punk vs John Cena, and if Punk wins - John Cena vs The Rock at Wrestlemania, will not be for the WWE Championship. However, if John wins, then on the day after Elimination Chamber, John Cena will recieve a WWE Championship Match against the winner of the Elimination Chamber, and has the right to carry it into his Wrestlemania Match.

At Wrestlemania, he has the chance to become a 6 time world champion. He knows that the Supershows has ended, but he, along with Epico and Primo, are eligible to appear on both shows, as they have a multi-brand title, and he, has a title oppotunity, for any title he wants, at the showcase of the immortals - Wrestlemania.

John Laurinaitis comes out to the ring, and Triple H begins by saying Mr Laurinaitis, at which John interrupts, and says that, as Mr Excitment, he needs a more exciting name, so call him Johnny Ace. Triple H begins again and says, Mr Ace, here I have 3 boxes, initative, unpredictability, and staff satusfaction. He needs all 3 of these boxes ticked, to be named the permantant General Manager of Raw. Earlier on, he asked all WWE roster members, asking if they supported the interim general manager, and the results were 51:49 in favour of yes. Next about unpredictability, he says that he still hasn't given up despite being universally hated, so that's good enough for him. At this point, Dolph Ziggler comes out and Zig-Zags Triple H.
