August 29 , 2011 Monday Night RAW results The August 29 , 2011 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on August 29 , 2011 at BOK Center in Tulsa , Oklahoma . Summary . Friendship can be a lot of work , especially if you ’ re friends with Kevin Nash . After making a major announcement that moving forward the Superstars of both Raw and SmackDown will appear on Monday Night Raw , WWE COO Triple H demanded that his longtime pal offer him an apology in front of the WWE Universe for lying to him last week . The former WWE Champion emerged and admitted that , yes , he had his driver tell Mr . John Laurinitais he ’ d been in a car accident to get Triple H out of the arena . He did so , he said , in order to payback CM Punk for embarrassing him earlier in the night . Although Nash confessed to the deception , he continued to maintain that he did not know who had sent him a text message instructing him to attack Punk two weeks earlier . For his part , The Second City Saint wasn ’ t biting . Instead , he accused The Game and Nash of being in cahoots . Despite their fervent differences , however , Punk and Nash did agree on one thing . Both were exceedingly in favor of the WWE COO arranging a match between them at Night of Champions . After giving the proposal some thought , Triple H agreed and arranged for the two to face off in three weeks . As part of Monday night ’ s groundbreaking Raw Supershow , a new initiative combining Superstars from Raw and SmackDown , World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton clashed with U . S . Champion Dolph Ziggler in a non - title match . The SmackDown Superstar appeared surprisingly evenly matched against his Raw counterpart as Ziggler ’ s outspoken manager , Vickie Guerrero , looked on . Although the U . S . Champion failed to best The Viper , one Raw Superstar looked pleased – Vickie ’ s potential new client , Jack Swagger , who watched the bout from a monitor in the locker room area . Integrating SmackDown Superstars on Raw is a boon for the WWE Universe . For John Cena , though ? Not so much . The Cenation Commander - in - Chief demanded that WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio face him after Del Rio ’ s cowardly ambush the week before . Instead , Mark Henry emerged and threatened to add Cena to his “ Hall of Pain . ” Then it was Christian ’ s turn . Captain Charisma took the mic to discuss how he will soon be the new face of the WWE after he overcomes World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton tomorrow night in a Steel Cage Title Match on SuperSmackDown . Just as he and Henry began to size up Cena as a punching bag , Sheamus flew into the ring to thwart his SmackDown adversaries , who reluctantly fled the squared circle . The downside of speaking your mind is that you make a lot of enemies . CM Punk learned that the hard way when he battled The Miz . The blunt Superstar admirably kept pace with his opponent until R - Truth tipped the scales . Miz ’ s co - conspiracy theorist attacked The Second City Saint in an effort to make a statement and allowing Punk the win by disqualification . As if that weren ’ t enough abuse , Kevin Nash joined the party and rendered his tormentor motionless with a powerbomb in the center of the ring . Jealousy once again reared its ugly head – and took a bite out of Jack Swagger . In his ongoing attempt to woo Vickie Guerrero to manage him , Swagger took on Sin Cara . As Vickie observed from ringside , her current associate , U . S . Champion Dolph Ziggler berated her and belittled her new potential client . Ziggler even went so far as to distract The All - American American . The interruption allowed Sin Cara to capitalize for an easy victory . Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne are for real . The new WWE Tag Team Champions – officially named Air Boom , thanks to suggestions from the WWE Universe – were forced to defend their championships against David Otunga & Michael McGillicutty in a title rematch . Air Boom rained down their aerial assault on the former champions and managed to retain in their first - ever title defense . After the match , Otunga took issue with announcer Jerry Lawler , ripping off his headphones , after the WWE Hall of Famer had mocked the losing team as " boring . " Brie Bella – so beautiful , so talented , so completely devious . As her sister Nikki hovered ringside , the Bella twin battled WWE Divas Champion Kelly Kelly , who was cheered on by Eve . In the non - title bout , Brie and her sister used Twin Magic to fool the referee and score a cheap victory . In an unprecedented pairing , John Cena teamed up with Sheamus to take on Christian & Mark Henry in the night ’ s main event . Mr . John Laurinaitis thought he ' d arranged the match , but he was sternly reminded by WWE COO Triple H that not only had he already arranged the match , he is also still the boss . Nonetheless , with four of WWE ’ s most potent Superstars clashing inside the ring , the bout rocked the BOK Center to its foundation . With The World ’ s Strongest ( and possibly scariest ) Man inducting more Superstars in his “ Hall of Pain , ” punishment was sure to be doled out . Although Henry did not disappoint , his overwhelming strength would not be enough . Cena managed to lead his team across the finish line by pinning former World Heavyweight Champion Christian . If you want something done right , you have to do it yourself . WWE COO Triple H informed CM Punk at the end of the night that he had spoken with WWE ’ s Board of Directors – CM Punk ’ s match against Kevin Nash at Night of Champions had been canceled . Instead , Punk will be facing a different opponent , Triple H himself !
