Major Heel Turn on Raw 1,000; Who is WWE Champion?

In the main event of tonight's 1,000th episode of Monday Night Raw, the Big Show forced a disqualification after attacking John Cena in his WWE Championship match against CM Punk.

After the match, CM Punk teased a heel turn when he walked out on John Cena and allowed the Big Show to continue assaulting him. This prompted the Rock to run down to the ring and make the save. As the Rock attempted to hit the People's Elbow, the WWE Champion rushed the ring once more to take him out. Punk delivered the GTS to the Rock and left the ring to a chorus of boo's from the St. Louis crowd.

If there were any doubt that Punk had in fact turned "heel", Jerry Lawler took us off the air by saying "CM Punk has turned his back on the WWE Universe."

Miami Herald Article Hints At Undertaker's Return at Raw 1,000

The Miami Herald has posted a new interview with WWE Hall of Famer Jerry "The King" Lawler, during which both Lawler and the article tease the return of The Undertaker on Raw 1,000 next week. The following is an excerpt from the article:

The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels wrestled on episode 1, a one-hour show emanating from the Grand Ballroom at Manhattan Center Studios, a small New York City theater. Both are expected to be involved in episode 1,000.

It goes without saying,” Lawler said. “Undertaker is literally a piece of work. This guy is amazing. There’s never been anyone like him and probably never will be again.

“So many words come to mind — dedication, perseverance and a love for this business. You really have to have those kind of things to last anywhere near as long as the Undertaker has lasted and to still be on top and relevant in this business today after 1,000 episodes of a weekly TV show is hard to imagine.”
