Raw - featured an opening segment in which CM Punk, with a megaphone, interrupted the show intro, took a mic, and briefly put on a headset to say something to the producer; Punk then sat in the ring, recapped his comments from two weeks earlier, and noted he brought the megaphone just in case his microphone gets cut off; after the crowd chanted "CM Punk," Punk said Vince McMahon was trying to sign him to a long-term lucrative contract but all Punk ever wanted was a microphone; Punk then said he made WWE socially relevant because someone died (Chris Benoit) and because of his comments, noting ESPN and Jimmy Kimmel wanted to hear what he had to say; moments later, he said Vince will want to meet with him personally in his office to discuss the contract but he wanted Vince to join him in the ring to do it, and that Vince could join the "CM Punk Kiss My Ass Club;" WWE World Champion John Cena then came out, with Punk mocking him on the megaphone by saying Cena's music was too loud; Punk then thanked Cena for getting him reinstated to a job he didn't really want and said he would be sure to change the title belt once he takes it from him; fans then chanted "Let's go, Cena" and "Cena sucks" as Punk said he knew Cena wouldn't really be fired because it didn't take when he was fired last year; Cena replied to Punk's comments, saying Triple H, Kurt Angle, Shawn Michaels, JBL, Eddie Guerrero, Edge, and Batista once thought they were the best wrestler and all found out that Cena could more than hang with them and that he was coming to Chicago to beat Punk's ass; Michael Cole then received an e-mail from the Raw GM that read McMahon was en route to negotiate with Punk and Cena would be in the opening bout; included a vignette on Mark Henry to promote his match against Big Show at Money in the Bank; featured a backstage segment in which WWE US Champion Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero discussed wanting to get both Punk and Cena fired by McMahon, with Vickie then doing a McMahon impression; moments later, Drew McIntyre walked in and did his own impression; the three then made fun of Vince until he walked in and said Ziggler & McIntyre would face Show later in the show; after the three left, Scott Stanford asked Vince about the contract negotiation with Punk, with Vince saying those who were interested could go to hell; included an ad promoting 'Rey Mysterio: The Life of a Masked Man;' featured an in-ring promo by Mike Mizanin, sitting atop a ladder in the middle of the ring beside the Money in the Bank briefcase; Miz, with several other ladders positioned around the ring, said he would win Money in the Bank because he was the future and had already gone further than all his opponents; Jack Swagger then interrupted, noting he did the same thing Miz did to win the world title; after Miz made fun of Swagger, Evan Bourne interrupted and said he would steal the show by winning Money in the Bank; Kofi Kingston then appeared and noted Edge had to retire due to injuries sustained in matches like Money in the Bank, with R-Truth then appearing and noting the conspiracy was still against him and that he was afraid of heights and spiders; Alex Riley then ran out to go after Miz, with Alberto Del Rio then driving into the arena, standing on his car, and saying he already beat Mysterio to become the #1 contender yet wasn't getting his title shot; Del Rio then said Cena was afraid of him and that he would re-earn his title shot; moments later, Cole received an e-mail from the Raw GM that said Miz, Swagger, & Truth would face Riley, Kingston, & Bourne; included a look at Show appearing on 'Burn Notice' Thursday; featured a video package recapping the history of the Money in the Bank ladder match; included a "Did you know?" graphic which read Smackdown was SyFy's most watched regularly scheduled program for the 40th consecutive week; featured a closing segment in which Vince repeatedly walked out until he got the ovation he wanted, greeted Cena's father at ringside (who was not mentioned by the commentary team), and said contracts should not be negotiated in public but said he would give in to Punk's demand; Punk then walked out to the ring mocking Vince's strut and refused to shake Vince's hand; after Vince said all Punk's demands were accounted for, and referred to Punk as "Phil;" Punk then said he looked over the new contract, didn't like it, and had his lawyers come up with a new one that basically said he could kick Vince in the nuts and Vince had to like it or he would shred it and take the title elsewhere after winning it; Punk then said he wanted his face on everything, wanted Vince to bring back the WWE ice cream bars, and wanted to be in the Chaperone 2, but it would be good this time; Punk then said whatever match he competes in at WrestleMania will be the main event, regardless of Cena vs. the Rock; Punk then said his last provision would be for Vince to apologize to him, and the people, for being a hypocrite for running the anti-bullying campaign but being a bully himself, resulting in a loud "CM Punk" chant; Punk then said Vince didn't know what makes a superstar in 2011 and that was why his friends like Colt Cabana and Luke Gallows were fired; moments later, Punk told Vince to sign the contract and save his company more embarassment, then flipping the table over; after the crowd chanted "We want wrestling," Vince said he didn't give a damn what they wanted and Punk said that was the problem; Punk followed by saying he didn't wear a white hat but he was in touch with the fans; Vince eventually said he was sorry, with Punk repeatedly asking "What?" like Steve Austin before saying hearing that was better than winning the world title three times; moments later, the crowd chanted "Colt Cabana" before Cena came out to a mixed reaction, said they both needed to shut up and that Punk too was a hypocrite for wanting to win the title and walk out on the fans; Punk then brought up being beside Cena's gangster car at WrestleMania 22, noted Cena's wife and father were in attendance, and that he was no longer the underdog but was instead the dynasty; Punk then said Cena wasn't the Red Sox, he was the New York Yankees; Cena then knocked Punk down, with Punk sliding out to the floor and yelling "I'm the underdog" as he went up to the entrance stage; Punk then cut off Cena's music before sitting down at the entrance stage and saying he was tired of Cena and would be taking the title and leaving the WWE with it, then tearing up the contract Vince signed moments earlier; Punk then yelled "I'll be the best in the world somewhere else":
