Unsolved MysterioSince returning to the Raw brand, Kane has come to the ring clutching a burlap sack at his side. For weeks, the WWE Universe puzzled over the bag’s contents, but Raw General Manager Mike Adamle attempted to sate our fans’ curiosity by forcing Kane to reveal what he has been hiding. The Big Red Monster claimed that there was a mask inside the bag, and that it belonged to someone who had been scarred and damaged before opening up the sack to reveal Rey Mysterio’s mask. What has Kane done to the Master of the 619, and what actions will be taken against him?
At SummerSlam, John Cena and Batista will face off against one another for the first time ever. In spite of the mounting tensions between the competitors, two weeks ago they managed to successfully compete as a pair to defeat Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase for the World Tag Team Championship. When the young Superstars exercised their rematch clause, though, the animosity between Cena & The Animal was so great that Rhodes & DiBiase were able to take back their gold. What will happen when the Chain Gang Commander & Batista compete at SummerSlam, and who will walk away “the man” of Monday Night Raw?
Ever since CM Punk became World Heavyweight Champion, he has been subjected to the mockery of JBL, who refers to him as nothing more than a “paper champion.” On Monday, that mockery continued as the self-proclaimed “wrestling-god” challenged the Straightedge Champion to a drinking contest, which goes against Punk’s principles. The champion’s response saw him throwing the drink in self-made millionaire’s face, and beating him to the ground. At SummerSlam, when the two meet in the ring with the World Heavyweight Title hanging in the balance, will CM Punk be able to prove that he is a worthy champion?
On Monday night, Santino Marella defeated WWE Women’s Champion Mickie James in an Intergender Match as Beth Phoenix looked on from Marella’s corner, and Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston from Mickie’s. At SummerSlam, however, all four competitors will be involved in the action as Santino Marella & Beth Phoenix take on Kofi Kingston & Mickie James in a Winner Takes All Match. With both the Intercontinental and Women’s gold up for grabs, which team will walk away with both championships on their waists?
For the answers to these questions and more, be sure to tune into Monday Night Raw at 9/8 CT only on USA Network. And don't miss the Biggest Blockbuster of the Summer, live, and only on pay-per-view, Aug. 17 at 8/7 CT.

Figured since it had not been made yet. I really don't care what happens in most of the matches, as long as Beth Phoenix walks out with the Womens title and/or the Intercontinental....haha. (Although I would like to see Punk win...for no real reason other than me not being able to stand JBL. )

Here's hoping for Orton to return and challenge Punk at Unforgiven. Michaels wants Jericho in street fight would be awesome, too.

We will probably see a rematch of JBL vs. Punk, hopefully with Orton returning. HBK challenging Y2J to a street fight or cage or something would be cool too.

I say HBK vs Chris Jericho at Unforgiven and the stipulation is if HBK loses to Jericho he must leave the WWE forever. Think about it how Jericho told HBK tonight at Summerslam tell the world and everyone the reason why you can not wrestle is cause of what he did to him at The Great American Bash. I can also see HBK's wife turning on him and going with Jericho. This can all be a setup. It is so obvious what other reason can I think of Jericho punching HBK's wife in the mouth lead up to. Yeah Shawn coming back to wrestle but there is something behind all of this.
C.M. Punk and JBL will have a rematch at Unforgiven and I can see Randy Orton coming back and get involved in the match which will lead up to a Punk and Orton feud and both of them having a match at NO MERCY.
The whole Kane and Rey storyline is really got my mind thinking. Kane and Rey will have a match at Unforgiven and another stipulation will be on the line if Rey loses he must unmask if Rey wins Kane must put his mask back on. I really don't know just took a wild guess here. I am just trying to figure out the storyline between the two.

I'm looking forward to seeing Santino as IC champion. And I guess to see where Kane goes from here.

JBL lost too clean for a rematch .it will be cm punk vs batista or randy orton will return tonight & ruin punks homecoming.

Looking forward to Raw tonight after last night's Summerslam. Weird that the main focus is Kane, especially after there was no mention made of it last night.
Looking forward to see where Cena/Batista and the World Title situation goes.
If I had to make predictions, I'd say Unforgiven will probably look something like...
Triple H vs. The Undertaker CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho John Cena vs. Batista Shelton Benjamin vs. Jeff Hardy vs. MVP Mark Henry vs. Matt Hardy
And likely something involving Kane, and Intercontinental title.

I think these matches will happen at Unforgiven from Raw:
Cena vs Punk vs JBL vs Batista Y2J vs HBK Beth vs Mickie vs Candice

It will be interesting to see where they go with John Cena after last night. I'm starting to think WWE is losing faith in his drawing ability, as the fans are definitely more on the side of Batista. I'd love to see a heel turn now that its fairly apparent that there is nothing else to do with him. His current character has run it's course, and he certainly doesn't belong in the World Title picture after two big losses on Pay-Per-View.

First person to come out will be Batista. Calling it now.
Hope JBL is not on tonight as there id nowhere he can go really, I don't want him to get anuva shot, it's pointless. I wouldn't mind seeing a battle royale for the number one contendership because it's not really clear who should get the shot at Unforgiven. I feel Batista will be in the title match at Unforgiven but can see more than one person in it.
