As Raw heads into North Carolina’s Crown Coliseum in Fayetteville, it is clear that Randy Orton will do anything to weaken John Cena before their showdown over the WWE Championship at SummerSlam. Just a little more than a week before the Biggest Party of the Summer, the Legend Killer sent Cena and all WWE a message when he attacked The Champ from behind on Saturday Night’s Main Event and flattened him with a thunderous RKO on a steel chair.
What is Cena’s condition going into Raw, with SummerSlam less than a week away? And will Orton send the WWE Champion yet another painful message?
The identity of the WWE Superstar who is Mr. McMahon’s illegitimate child remains unknown as Jonathan Coachman appeared unable to get to the bottom of the mystery on Saturday Night’s Main Event. The Chairman has rejected Eugene, Melina and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin as his potential love children. Will there be new developments this Monday in the billionaire’s quest to find out which Superstar could be the fruit of the McMahon family tree?
Also, with the matchup for kingly supremacy announced, how will King Booker prepare to face the returning 10-time World Champion, Triple H, at SummerSlam? Can Booker and Queen Sharmell scheme a way to hold onto their royal Raw kingdom?
Finally, with the big Dating Game date between Ron Simmons and Maria scheduled, will the jealous Santino Marella find a way to throw an Italian-sized kink in the game-show machinations of Raw General Manager William Regal?
We’ll find out Monday night in the Tarheel State, live at 9/8 CT on USA Network Or join us for our LIVE coverage right here on the night.

We begin with Randy Orton in the ring and he has a mic. He tells everyone to take a good look because this is the last time that they are going to see him in the ring without the WWE Title around his waist. Two nights ago, there was a defining moment . . . a turning point. It was the beginning of the end. We go to footage from Saturday Night’s Main Event when Randy Orton gave John Cena an RKO onto a steel chair. Orton says that footage was important so he wants to see it in slow motion and from different angles. The people in the truck comply with Orton’s wishes. Orton says that footage is going to replace Hogan slamming Andre, Austin 3:16, or the ‘Montreal Screwjob’. He says that will be the most aired clip in WWE history and will air when he is inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. That move will end the championship reign of John Cena. Orton says that it is safe to say that John Cena is not 100 percent. Orton understands if John Cena couldn’t make it to SummerSlam. There is a rumor that John Cena is not even in the building. Orton says that this is the time for Cena to come to the ring to save him from embarrassment to forfeit his WWE Title.
Instead of John Cena, Vince McMahon comes to the ring as only Vince McMahon can. McMahon says that Orton’s match at SummerSlam is important but some ingrate has filed a paternity suit against him. Vince says that his offspring is male so that narrows things down. Vince says that some WWE Superstar on the roster is his son. It must be someone of superior genetic makeup. He says that he hopes it is someone like Randy Orton. Vince says that he would have been proud to call Randy his son if that was the case. Vince says that he hopes his new son is nothing like his two offspring, his Son Shane or his Daughter Stephanie because they are only in it for the money. He hopes it is someone generous who does not care about the money. Vince says that he thinks we will find out who it is tonight. Vince wants everyone to welcome his son with open arms. Vince says that everyone in the crowd enjoys the misfortunes of others. He calls everyone sick. Vince restates that he hopes his son has the same qualities as Randy Orton, but not like John Cena.
We see John Cena walking through the back while Vince runs Cena down. Vince says that John has decided to show up after all. Vince wonders if Cena is going to confront Orton after all.
John Cena’s music plays and he comes to the ring. Vince has them stop Cena’s music while Orton goes into the crowd. Cena says that these people don’t like Vince. Vince says that he does not like Vince. Cena calls Vince arrogant, pompous, and disrespectful. Vince reminds Cena that he is rich. Cena says that he would be embarrassed to be Vince’s son. Vince asks Cena how his face is. Cena says that it was quite a statement and he got the message. Cena has a message of his own. He says that he will be at SummerSlam on Sunday and he will retain the WWE Championship. Vince says that Cena might not be there. Vince says that if Cena is not there on Sunday, he will strip Cena of the WWE Title. Vince says that speaking of striping, he wants to talk about Cena’s mother. Vince says that he spent a lot of time in New England in his early days and he might have done Cena’s mom. Cena slaps Vince and sends Vince to his knees. Vince leaves the ring and Orton checks on Vince.
Vince asks Cena if he wants action tonight, then he has it. Vince says that Cena will wrestle ‘the undefeated’ Gene Snitsky. Vince walks up the Rawest Ramp in Sports Entertainment as we go to commercial.
Before the first match begins, Raw General Manager William Regal comes out and says that despite the rumor that British men are sexually repressed, there will be a Diva’s Battle Royale where everyone but Candice will be in the match and the winner will get a future WWE Women’s Title Match.
