October 10 , 2011 Monday Night RAW results The October 10 , 2011 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on October 10 , 2011 at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City , Oklahoma . Summary . Defiant in the face of the chaos that has taken over the Raw SuperShow , Triple H vowed that he would not step down as WWE COO and that the night ’ s event would continue as planned in spite of the Superstar “ Solidarity Rally ” that was taking place in the parking lot of Oklahoma City ’ s Chesapeake Energy Arena . The Game was not alone , though . Soon joined by John Cena , Sheamus and CM Punk , Triple H and this group of Superstars made it clear that they believe in sports - entertainment ’ s oldest adage — the show must go on . Determined to put on a show , Cena and Sheamus locked up in the ring while Triple H officiated and Punk handled commentary . It was an entertaining , makeshift match that was soon interrupted by an unexpected presence — Mr . McMahon . Calling an end to the bout , the intimidating magnate addressed his son - in - law directly , telling Triple H that he liked his style , but the WWE Board of Directors has labeled him as a possible financial catastrophe and has relieved him of his duties on Raw . Furthermore , the Board declared that no member of the McMahon family could run the Raw SuperShow due to a conflict of interest , leading Mr . McMahon to announce a new Interim General Manager of Raw — WWE Executive Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis . Immediately stepping into his new role , Mr . Laurinaitis welcomed the embattled Superstars back into the arena and sent Christian and John Morrison directly to the ring in their street clothes . Already unhappy with the new General Manager , Captain Charisma took his anger out on The Shaman of Sexy , beating JoMo and then encouraging Cody Rhodes , Jack Swagger and Dolph Ziggler to smash the fallen competitor . This bout was just the beginning of the Laurinatis - led Raw Supershow . In short order , the GM scheduled two main events for the night — World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry vs . Randy Orton and WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio vs . CM Punk . Less than two weeks before he faces Big Show at Vengeance , Mark Henry clashed with Randy Orton and came very close to falling to WWE ’ s Apex Predator . After getting nailed with a devastating RKO , The World ' s Strongest Man was down for the count before a malicious Cody Rhodes attacked Orton for the second time in the bout . The Intercontinental Champion and Mark Henry brutalized the vulnerable Viper before Rhodes sent a humiliating message of contempt to his former mentor by putting a paper bag on his head . Still fired up following her brutal beat down of Beth Phoenix on last Monday ’ s Raw , Kelly Kelly came to fight with her good friend Eve by her side . Tempering the blonde beauty ’ s aggressiveness with her ring smarts , Eve capitalized on the punishment Kelly dished out by pinning Tamina for the win . Somewhere in the locker room , Beth & Natalya were watching this match very closely . Less than an hour into his tenure as Interim Raw General Manager , John Laurinaitis dropped two bombshells . First , he announced that WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio will defend his title against John Cena at Vengeance . Then , in a move that shocked the WWE Universe , Mr . Laurinaitis beckoned Jim Ross into the ring and called the WWE Hall of Famer an ingrate for walking out on Triple H last week . The EVP of Talent Relations then fired the legendary announcer . Two weeks after he returned to the ring and smashed both Jack Swagger & United States Champion Dolph Ziggler , the massive Mason Ryan joined forces with the WWE Tag Team Champions to do it again . Throwing his considerable weight around , the powerhouse from Wales stomped through his three opponents before planting the United States Champion into the canvas . It ’ s clear this big man means business . What started off as a showdown between the WWE Champion and The Straight Edge Superstar soon exploded into tag team warfare when Interim Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis reinstated the controversial duo of Miz & Truth and set this match on the spot . Quickly abandoned by his spineless partner , Punk was forced to go it alone against his devious opponents . But when The Awesome Truth began to double - team The Voice of the Voiceless , The Game rushed to the ring to defend his former rival in a show of solidarity the WWE Universe could actually get behind . Following the match , the Interim Raw General Manager proposed yet another idea to bring to the Board — a bout pitting CM Punk & Triple H against The Miz & R - Truth at Vengeance .
