The Champ visits Tinker Air Force Base

Monday morning, WWE Champion John Cena made a special guest appearance at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City. Cena was greeted by 250 fans and did not leave until he had signed autographs for everyone.

“It was great,” Cena said after the visit. “Coming off a pretty grueling international tour in Canada and Mexico, it was actually pretty fun to get up a little early and go over to Tinker Air Force Base.”

When Cena took the stage, he hoisted his WWE Championship above his head and the crowd erupted. Many of the 250 fans had shown up about two hours early to catch a glimpse of the champ.

At the end of the event, Special Agent Kevin Bland from the Office of Special Investigation presented Cena with a special coin on behalf of the Air Force Base as a token of their appreciation.

“Believe it or not that is not the first one of those coins that I’ve gotten,” Cena admitted. “I’ve gotten a lot of coins from service men and women from Iraq, Afghanistan and various military bases. They are not kidding when they say it’s a big deal. It is a very big deal. I have a nice collection of those at my house and I hold that honor very close to me and it was a very cool thing that they did.”

The honor was a last minute surprise. While it was a highlight for the champ, it was not the best part of the trip.

“Anytime you can interact with the armed services and see how fired up they are, that makes everything else go away.”

Yes

There are three burning questions in the minds of the RAW fans as RAW heads to Oklahoma City this week.

Who will Coachman choose?
In Oklahoma City, D-Generation X will face three teams of Executive Assistant Jonathan Coachman's choice in a Gauntlet Match. DX must face all three teams in a row, and with all the Superstars at the Executive Assistant's disposal, who will Coachman choose to battle Triple H and Shawn Michaels?

Who will succeed Trish?
Trish Stratus won the Women’s Championship at Unforgiven, but her retirement forced the championship to be vacated. Every Diva wants to become champion; eight of them will have their chance, as RAW will see the beginning of an 8-Diva tournament to determine a new Women's Champion. The first match of the tournament will kick off RAW right at 9/8 CT. Who will take the first step towards being the one to succeed Trish?

Can Nitro withstand the Big Red Monster?
Also in Oklahoma City, Johnny Nitro will defend the Intercontinental Championship against Kane. Weeks ago, Kane's first chance at Nitro's gold was interrupted by Umaga, who came to the ring to attack the Big Red Monster. This time, however, Umaga has been banned from ringside. An opportunistic Nitro was able to retain his gold in a Six-Pack Challenge last week; can he do it two weeks in a row, or will Oklahoma City see a Big Red Champion crowned?

To find out the answers to these questions and more, tune into RAW Monday night at 9/8 CT on the USA Network.
