March 19, 2012
Chris Jericho got extra personal with CM Punk
PHILADELPHIA – Can you believe we're less than two weeks away from WrestleMania XXVIII? As the weather heats up, so does the intense rivalries that will culminate in Miami on April 1. On Monday's Raw SuperShow, Undertaker, Triple H and Shawn Michaels met in a heated confrontation and offered their predictions for the "End of an Era" Hell in a Cell Match. Also, Chris Jericho crossed the line into personal territory again with CM Punk, and The Rock one-upped John Cena in their latest fiery encounter.
Chris Jericho made a shocking claim about CM Punk's sister
WWE Champion CM Punk opened the show and angrily called out Jericho for bringing up his father's alcohol issues. Saying Jericho crossed the line, The Straight Edge Superstar went on to state the seriousness of alcoholism and why Jericho is really the "pathetic" one for making light of a grave condition.

Jericho didn't heed Punk's message, however, as he appeared on the TitanTron just as he did last week – this time making a stunning allegation that Punk's sister had substance-abuse problems. Punk immediately told Jericho to shut up, called him a liar and vowed to beat the lies out of him at WrestleMania.
Kane def. Big Show
Kane surprisingly made quick work of Big Show, courtesy of Cody Rhodes' distraction at ringside. The World's Largest Athlete felt the pain of Kane's chokeslam, but the post-match humiliation was what really made Big Show's temper boil. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
After giving Big Show a brutal Disaster Kick, Rhodes handcuffed him to the ropes and unleashed a flurry of punches while wearing boxing gloves, making light of when Floyd Mayweather knocked out Big Show at WrestleMania XXIV. The World's Largest Athlete was clearly fuming after the insulting beatdown from the Intercontinental Champion.
David Otunga def. United States Champion Santino Marella in a Non-Title Match
Sporting an airbrushed-on six-pack, Santino Marella came out with a fistful of confidence – and the humor to match – against David Otunga. But unfortunately for the U.S. Champion, this only provided Otunga the motivation to pull off an upset in this Non-Title Match. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
After the contest, Interim Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis mocked Santino by doing the trombone dance. SmackDown General Manager Teddy Long wouldn't idly stand by and watch him mock the U.S. Champion, though, and smacked Laurinaitis across the face, then busted a move with Santino on the entrance way as Laurinaitis was left steaming.

John Cena def. Mark Henry; The Rock assaulted Henry
Mark Henry showed no mercy against John Cena, battering the leader of Cenation inside and out of the ring. Cena, however, would not be overpowered, even as he fought The World's Strongest Man just hours after being involved in a car accident earlier Monday. Cena kicked out of pin attempt following a World's Strongest Slam and bounced back to defeat Henry with a monster Attitude Adjustment. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
After the match, the one-upmanship between Cena and The Rock continued as The Great One came out to lay out Henry with a Rock Bottom. The two rivals engaged in a piercing staredown before Cena turned his eyed to the WrestleMania XXVIII logo hanging above the Wells Fargo Center.
Sheamus def. The Miz
The Miz did plenty of talking before his match against Sheamus, as The Awesome One told the Philadelphia crowd that it's a travesty he won't have a match at WrestleMania. The Miz said he would prove to John Laurinaitis why he deserves to have a spot on Team Johnny in Miami. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
Sheamus proved The Miz was full of hot air, though, when The Great White needed just a few minutes to hand the reeling Superstar another loss following a vicious Brogue Kick.
Randy Orton called out Kane in the center of the ring
Randy Orton made it clear that he doesn't care about Kane's "identity crisis." Orton said that while Kane might have a problem coming to terms with who he really is, The Viper has no such dilemma flashing his dangerous side at every opportunity. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger def. R-Truth and Kofi Kingston
Hours after being named as members of Team Johnny, Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger did nothing to make John Laurinaitis question his all-important decision. Ziggler and Swagger isolated Kingston in the corner and pummeled him with double-team maneuvers. R-Truth fared better in the ring, but some crafty assistance from Vickie Guerrero helped secure a victory for Ziggler and Swagger. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
After the match, Aksana shoved Guerrero to the floor, sending the tempestuous manager into a rage as the two had to be separated by Superstars from both sides.
The Undertaker, Triple H and Shawn Michaels met in the ring for a heated confrontation
Shawn Michaels said that even though he's the special guest referee, he's the real star everyone's talking about heading into the "End of an Era" Hell in a Cell Match at WrestleMania. While HBK refused to offer a prediction for the match, he made a promise that he'll once again steal the show. ( PHOTOS | VIDEO)
Undertaker came out next and advised HBK to keep quiet before Triple H joined the heated discussion. The Game said he knows exactly what it takes to end Undertaker's career inside Hell in a Cell. The Deadman questioned whether Triple H is willing to put his entire life on the line to get the job done.
As their face-off reached a boiling point, a final parting shot from Undertaker was the one that rang the loudest:
"Remember when I said Shawn was better than you? … He is."
