Last night, an era ended with CM Punk failing to leave a building with the WWE Championship for the first time since the day before the Survivor Series in 2011. Now that The Rock has won the WWE Title, what is next for him? All signs (especially the Wrestlemania sign hanging above the ring) point to the Rock facing John Cena at the biggest show of the year in the once in a lifetime (if your lifetime started on April 2, 2012) match for the WWE Title. What will happen with the World Title? What other fun toys does Ricardo have in his bucket? What will happen when Paul Heyman is given a performance review by Vince McMahon? What is the fallout from the Royal Rumble match for the twenty nine people who do not have a date with destiny with The Rock?

We are in Las Vegas, Nevada and your announcers are Jerry ‘Is there a show tonight’ Lawler, Michael ‘Hey Dave Scherer, good luck in year ten’ Cole, and John ‘We repeat ourselves on Friday Night’ Layfield.

The wheel is spinning and Vickie welcomes everyone to Las Vegas and the Raw Roulette. It will be in the hands of lady luck. There are three wheels. The wheel of superstars, the wheel of stipulations, and wheel of Vickie

The first match will be Antonio Cesaro versus Randy Orton and the stipulation is Guest Referee.

Before we have any wrestling, CM Punk is on his way to the ring and he has Paul Heyman following behind him as fast as he can.

Punk is not in a good mood and he wants his music turned off. He says that this is Day 435 of his title reign. He beat the Rock last night and he retained his title. He became the new People’s Champion last night. He says that he did not lose while kicking the ropes.

Punk asks everyone if they want to put a cheater on the pedestal. They want a person who cannot win without help from someone else. Punk calls everyone no good thieves, just like Vince McMahon and the Rock.

Punk says that he never needed anyone to restart a match illegally. He got screwed over worse than Bret Hart in Montreal. Last night will be known as the Phoenix Screwjob. Punk says that he got screwed.

Punk asks everyone if they want to party and celebrate with the Rock? In his world, you don’t get restarts or water breaks. Punk says that he got screwed. He is the champion and the people’s champion. He is here to crash the party.

Vince McMahon’s music plays and he makes his way into the arena and Punk calls Vince a thief and a swindler.

Vince says that he can crash Punk’s party. There will be a video tape showing that Punk was complicit along with Paul Heyman as it relates to the Shield.

Vince tells Paul to shut up because he has had enough of his crap. There will be a personal performance review later tonight. Things could lead to Paul’s termination later tonight.

Darren Young and Titus O’Neil join Ryback in the ring for the ‘Make Me Laugh’ Challenge. Your host is Matt Striker. The person who makes you laugh the most wins.

Titus and Darren go first. Titus says that they have a joke on Matt Striker. What did the woman say to Matt Striker when he asked her on a date. Anybody got time for that. The crowd does not appreciate it and Titus blows his whistle.

It is time for Ryback to bring the funny.

We go to commercial.

We are back and it is time to spin the wheel of stipulations. It is Player’s Choice.

Wade Barrett chooses his opponent tonight.

Wade is in the ring and he says he knows exactly who he wants to fight tonight. He wants to fight that long haired, flash in the pan, Bo Dallas. Last night was the greatest night in Bo’s career when he eliminated Barrett. Tonight, his career ends with the Barrett Barrage.

http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2013/01/cena_cody_1crop.jpg

Winner: John Cena

After the match, Cena looks to the Wrestlemania sign for some guidance. He says that it sounds like some of the people did not pick him to win the Royal Rumble. Any of the other 29 superstars could come here and tell you how they should have won the Royal Rumble. There is one man . . . this man, that can stand in this ring that last night they won the Royal Rumble.

No doubt throwing Ryback over the top rope was an unpredictable and enormous step. It is only the first step. The next step is to issue the challenge to the champion of their choosing for the main event at Wrestlemania. Cena points to the Wrestlemania sign.

John says that this is one of his toughest decisions. The person who holds the WWE title at Wrestlemania will be CM Punk or the Rock. CM Punk is a man who for the last two years has been impossible for him to beat. Say what you want about CM Punk, a true champion finds a way to win. The past six times he has faced Punk, he has won or Cena has not gotten the job done. Then there is the Rock. A man he openly spoke about before his return to the WWE. When he did return, he wanted to make sure that Rock challenged him. Rock came back and made that challenge. Cena says that he opened up about how he had to win that match for a year.

He jousted with the Rock and proved that he was in Rock’s league and there were times that Rock could not hold his jockstrap. Things were perfect until April 1st when his Once in a Lifetime moment was stolen. Everything in that year meant nothing because people only remember who won and lost that match.

Cena says that he has a big choice and this is a city built on making odds. Does he choose the World Title, a title he has a better chance of winning or does he face one of the WWE Champions against whom he has no chance to win.

John says that he is going to choose right here and right now.

John says that he challenges . . . the WWE Champion.

He tells Rock and CM Punk that they are now marked men by him. We are all on the Road to Wrestlemania . . .

The Shield interrupt and they make their way to the ring.

Cena waits for them to get to the ring. Cena fights off all three men for a moment but eventually Reigns, Ambrose, and Rollins are too much for Cena.

Sheamus’ music plays and he goes after the Shield but the Shield take control of the situation.

Who will help a downed Sheamus and Cena? Ryback takes his time to get to the ring and Ryback sends Ambrose over the top rope. Rollins is next to go to the floor. Ambrose sends Ryback into the ring steps. Reigns sends Sheamus into the ring post.

Cena recovers but The Shield are able to work over Cena and they hit the Cerberus Power Bomb. The Shield leave the ringside area and we see the carnage.

We are back and it is time to take a look back at The Shield’s attack on John Cena and Sheamus and Ryback’s inability to help John.

We go to Vickie’s office for the next spin on the Wheel of Gimmickry. It ends up on a Lingerie Pillow Fight and Tensai is in the match against Brodus Clay.

Tensai refuses and he says that he is a monster.

Vickie says that he won’t put them in lingerie. He tells Brodus to spin the Vickie Vegas Challenge Wheel. It lands on Dance Off.

We take a look at what WWE did in Phoenix during Royal Rumble week.

It is time for the Lingerie Free Dance Off between Brodus Clay (with the Funkettes) and Tensai.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Jerry Lawler is the Don Cornelius for this segment. Tensai is in a robe and he tells King to get this over with. Tensai reveals his lingerie but Jerry tells Tensai this is a dance off. Brodus reveals that he never told Tensai.

Brodus dances first, but Tensai refuses to dance. Jerry tells Tensai that this is Las Vegas and ‘what happens in Vegas . . . stays in Vegas’ (even though it is being aired all over the world on USA Network). Tensai wants to make sure that Lawler is serious.

Tensai starts to dance and he does the robot along with some other moves. Brodus and the Funkettes join in.

Ron Simmons is in the back and it is time for that DAMN moment.

Tensai covers his head in shame as he goes to the back.

Alberto Del Rio spins the Wheel of Gimmickry on a Body Slam Match. Vickie tells Alberto that seeing him slam Show is the biggest trick we will ever see in Las Vegas.

Alberto says that anything can happen in Vegas.

We go to commercial.

Match Number Four: Big Show versus Alberto Del Rio (with Ricardo Rodriguez) in a Body Slam Challenge

Tamina sends Kaitlyn to the mat and then kicks her to the floor. Some of the showgirljacks attack Kaitlyn but Kaitlyn fights back. Kaitlyn with a shoulder to Tamina and then she uses the headdress on Tamina. Kaitlyn with a flying forearm and she punches Tamina.

All of the Divas get into the ring and the referee lets them battle and Tamina watches from the steps. The referees send the Divas out of the ring and it looks like this is over.

http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2013/01/rock_promo4crop.jpg

It is time to hear from the WWE Champion and he makes his way to the ring.

There is only one word that can describe the spirit of tonight. One word that symbolizes their entire journey and that word is . . . Finally. FINALLY, the Rock has come back to Las Vegas.

Finally, the Rock is WWE Champion. There is no accolade on this Earth that is more deeply ingrained in his blood than this WWE Championship. From 1998 through 2003, he had the honor of winning 7 WWE Championships. After 10 long years, he can honestly say that this moment is the proudest moment of his career.

Rock says that he has already thanked his friends and family. Now he wants to thank everyone.

Rock says that for 434 days CM Punk has come out here and run his mouth. He says that the people did not count and did not matter. The people were nothing. Rock says that those crap days are over. No longer will CM Punk come out looking like a homeless tattooed freak followed by his fat manager.

Paul is coming out worried if he has a bra big enough to hold up his deep fried Twinkie Tits.

Tonight we usher in a new era. It is the People’s Era. They are going to celebrate. He says that everyone is getting pie.

CM Punk’s music plays and he makes his way to the stage. He tells everyone to shut their mouth and no one wants to hear their irrelevant opinions.

Punk says that Rock is embarrassing himself and embarrassing Punk. Rock is flushing everything that Punk did down the toilet. Rock never won the title, it was handed to him, just like everything in his spoon-fed life.

Punk tells everyone that in twenty years the people who are telling him that he sucks will be calling him a genius.

If Rock was a man, the third generation blood that courses through his veins, he would come up to Punk and hand him his title back because he did not earn it. He stole it from him and then he would congratulate Punk for being the best in the world and apologize for tarnishing what Punk made great.

Rock tells Punk that if he had an ounce of manhood, Punk would walk down the ramp and try to take it. Punk can go to the ring and face him like a man or stay on the stage and be a punk ass bitch.

Punk makes his way to the ring and he stops at the bottom of the ramp. Punk looks around and then he goes up to the stage and be a punk ass bitch because it is cool to swear. Punk does things when he wants to. Punk says that he might grant Rock a rematch. He will grant him a title match in three weeks.

Rock tells Punk that he will get his rematch in three weeks, but he will be kicking Punk’s ass. Rock tells Punk to smell what he is cooking.

Paul offers his hand to Vince and Vince looks at it before thinking otherwise but he does shake Paul’s hand. Vince tells Paul to hold his mic and Vince applies some hand sanitizer.

Vince asks Paul if he ever had or currently had the Shield or Brad Maddox under contract.

Paul thanks Vince for the opportunity to come out here and look Vince in the eye and settle this once and for all. The answer to Vince’s question is no. He has never had anything to do with Brad Maddox nor The Shield.

Vince asks Paul if he ever lied in his life.

Paul says a long time ago he heard Vince’s father say adversity defines a man’s character in his darkest hour. Paul says that he knows where this is going, he has lied every day of his stinking life because he is a promoter and that is what promoters do. They lie to survive tonight to get to tomorrow. He has lied through his teeth, lied swearing to God, and lied on the souls of his parent. That is what he needed to survive.

With his career on the line, he has lied every day of his life, but he is not lying now.

Vince asks Paul if he is an honorable man.

Paul says that he is trying to be an honorable man and he hopes to learn from Vince. He has never been a saint and he wants to be here. If it takes being an honorable man to stay here, he will.

Vince tells Paul that he wants to show Paul some footage and then he wants his comments.

When CM Punk and him plucked Brad from obscurity. They brought him in as the referee to keep the title on Punk. They paid him and he kept coming back for more.

We see the Shield come up behind Brad and Brad apologizes and says that he will leave. Paul tells Brad to take this like a man. Brad wants to apologize to Punk and let it go. Paul says that this is a learning experience. Paul leaves and the Shield beat up Maddox.

Paul says that he has a thick New York/Jewish accent that is easy to imitate. We are in Las Vegas, a town full of impersonators. That is an impersonator doing a poor impersonation of Paul Heyman. He says that he is being set up because of envy and jealousy. It is because of his success with ECW and CM Punk.

Vince asks if that was Brad Maddox and The Shield. Paul says that was them. Vince asks if that was Paul Heyman. Paul says that it wasn’t him. Vince asks everyone if Paul is lying and deserves to be fired.
