As we reported on Monday, WWE wrote two scripts for Monday’s RAW, one in which Cena was built up as Punk’s challenger and the other with Ryback as Punk’s challenger. Ryback also faced Punk at this past weekend’s WWE house show events. That was done to prepare him in case he got the call for Hell in a Cell.
— John Cena posted the following to Twitter today regarding his status for the upcoming European tour, considering his recovery from elbow surgery:
