April 18 , 2011 Monday Night RAW results The April 18 , 2011 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on April 18 , 2011 at O2 Arena in London , England , UK . All of Britain is abuzz . No , not with news of the impending , historic royal nuptials of Prince William and Kate Middleton . Rather , England ’ s lads and lasses are chinwagging over the latest brilliant and barmey happenings on Raw less than two weeks before Extreme Rules . Summary . Warning : Smoking may cause loss of WWE Title opportunity . After securing a spot last week in the Triple Threat Steel Cage Match at Extreme Rules along with WWE Champion The Miz and John Cena , R - Truth came out in London ’ s O2 Arena to celebrate . He was greeted by John Morrison , however , who unveiled footage from last week ’ s match of the rapping Superstar chugging water , sucking wind and appearing out of shape . The Shaman of Sexy derided his former tag team partner for his smoking habit and challenged him for his position in the title match . Truth accepted – a decision he would regret when Morrison prevailed and the rapping Superstar watched his title hopes go up in smoke . Afterward , a bitter Truth mercilessly attacked his opponent and , at one point , even grabbed cigarettes from an audience member and blew smoke in Morrison ’ s face . Perhaps there ’ s validity to the old adage that “ hair makes the man . ” Debuting a “ new and improved ” look , Dolph Ziggler unveiled his freshly trimmed , brunette coif just before facing Evan Bourne . As his business associate , Vickie Guerrero , cheered him on , the updated Ziggler clipped Bourne ’ s wings and pinned him for the victory . It ' s one of the most highly anticipated nights of the year for the WWE Universe . And one of the most unsettling for Superstars . Next week , Monday Night Raw hosts the 2011 WWE Draft . Who will leave Monday nights and who will join the Raw roster ? Tune in to find out ! Even in England , The Miz continues to be the biggest of royal pains . The WWE Champion whined on and on about John Morrison replacing R - Truth in his Triple Threat Steel Cage Match at Extreme Rules . During the temper tantrum , WWE ’ s latest sensation , Sin Cara , approached the ring to prepare for his match with Miz ’ s lackey , Alex Riley . Soon after , John Cena joined the fray as Raw ’ s anonymous General Manager quickly interrupted and arranged a tag team match pitting Cena & Sin Cara against Miz & Riley . The Cenation Commander - in - Chief softened up his Extreme Rules rival as well as Riley . Sin Cara then used his acrobatic antics against Riley , who succumbed to the international wonder with a three - count . After Twin Magic cost her the Divas Championship last week , Eve appeared eager to make one of The Bellas disappear . As Nikki faced the Latina lovely , her sister and current Divas Champion , Brie Bella , looked on with great interest . This week , however , The Bellas lost their magic – and underhanded – touch . Instead , Eve toppled Nikki with ease and let it be known to Brie that she would be gunning to reclaim the butterfly title . Sir Michael Cole ? Sounds about as plausible as “ Grammy - winner R - Truth , ” right ? Well , the cheese - eating announcer had his Extreme Rules tag team partner , Jack Swagger , join him as a woman , who looked vaguely like the Queen of England , entered the ring and allegedly knighted him . Afterward , Cole and Swagger provoked their Extreme Rules opponents , Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross . “ Sir Cole ” commanded The All - American American to attack , prompting him to toss Lawler over the announce table and forcing Good Ol ’ J . R . to kiss Cole ’ s feet . Yes , his feet ! The last time Raw broadcast from London , Santino Marella had invited U . S . Champion Sheamus for tea and embarrassed The Celtic Warrior . This time , however , the Irishman was in no mood for a cup of Earl Grey . Instead , he forced the Italian to choke down a heaping helping of humility . One week before the WWE Draft , Sheamus showed his dominance for all of England and the world to see by making quick work of the recently ascendant Santino . Who knew The Viper could play possum so well ? As tensions continue to mount between Randy Orton and CM Punk , the two met head on in the night ’ s explosive main event . Fierce competitors , The Viper and The Second City Savior traded blows as well as momentum throughout the bout . In the end , Orton turned the tables on his preachy opponent and capitalized for the win . Unfortunately for Orton , The New Nexus crashed the victory party . Punk ’ s New Nexus disciples surrounded the ring and closed ranks around their prey . After pummeling Orton and leaving him seemingly unconscious on the canvas , The New Nexus cleared a path for Mason Ryan to deliver the final nail in the coffin . The Second City Savior waved him off , though , intent on punishing Orton himself . As he steamed toward the lifeless body , however , WWE ’ s Apex Predator snapped to life . He leveled Punk with a shocking RKO before slithering from the ring and leaving The New Nexus stunned and scrambling for answers .
