WWE RAW Preview: April 15, 2013

A fantastic crowd, a new feud for the WWE Championship, a money in the bank cash-in and a couple of title changes – last week’s RAW had it all. While it is difficult to top that show, this week’s RAW from Greensville, South Carolina has plenty in store for us. Here’s what we can look forward to on the show.

CM Punk returns to RAW to talk about his loss to the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 29

CM Punk returns!

After a week’s sabbatical following his defeat to the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 29, ‘The Voice of the voiceless’ CM Punk returns to RAW to discuss his defeat in that historic match, as per Paul Heyman’s announcement during last week’s show. It is a fact that Punk tried every trick in the book to get into the head of the Undertaker and break the streak. Now that he has failed in his endeavour, will he give us excuses for his defeat or drop some pipebombs and carry on? Expect Punk to surprise us.

Ryback sets his sight on John Cena

Ryback left the WWE universe ‘shell-shocked’ after attacking John Cena at the fag end of the show. While he is expected to explain the reason behind this attack on RAW, rumours suggest that Ryback has indeed turned heel and will go against John Cena at Extreme Rules. Yet to win the WWE title after multiple attempts, Ryback might have set his eyes on it again. RAW will give us a clear picture of the road ahead in this feud.

Dolph Ziggler’s double trouble

The new World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler has plenty on his plate with two challengers lurking behind him to get their hands on his title. Alberto Del Rio, the former champion, has a rematch for the title pending. And, Jack Swagger made an attempt on last week’s SmackDown to coax Ziggler into a title match. Hence, Ziggler may have to put his title on the line anytime soon. With Big E Langston by his side, Ziggler should be able to thwart any challenge that comes his way.

The Shield’s feud with Team Hell No

The Shield’s attempt to get noticed by attacking the Undertaker and Triple H were thwarted by Team Hell No on RAW and SmackDown. There is bound to be a reaction from the ‘hounds of justice’ in this regard. They might take out Kane and Daniel Bryan or even challenge their tag-team championships. The Shield’s plans will be revealed on RAW.

Fandango-ing to continue?

Fandango reached instant superstardom after last week’s show as the crowd had fun singing and dancing to his entrance theme. A new term ‘Fandango-ing’ has come into use following the antics of that awesome New Jersey crowd. It will be interesting to see whether the trend continues this week too. The South Carolina crowd has a huge task at hand to atleast try and match the bar set by the New Jersey crowd. Let us hope they add that extra spice to the show to make it exciting.
