— CM Punk is being advertised to face John Cena in a Street Fight at next week’s Monday Night RAW event at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The official website of the TD Garden writes: “DON’T MISS BOSTON’S OWN JOHN CENA TAKE ON CM PUNK IN A STREET FIGHT MATCH. AS CM PUNK’S LAST MATCH IN BOSTON, COULD THIS ALSO BE JOHN CENA’S LAST APPEARANCE ON MONDAY NIGHT RAW?!” Of course, this is likely a dark match.
— Despite lower overall numbers due to the holiday weekend, the two hours of RAW ranked first and second in total viewers for the day.
