CM PUNK'S HOMECOMING
When Raw rolls into Chicago, hometown boy CM Punk will no doubt be looking for some retribution. With Paul Heyman finally in Punk’s clutches at Night of Champions, Ryback interrupted Punk’s cathartic thrashing of his former best friend. With Ryback and Heyman now buddies, will The Straight Edge Superstar have to get through the “Human Wrecking Ball” if he wants another chance at the ECW founder?

IS A REBELLION IMMINENT?
A group of Superstars decided to take action last week on Raw and save Daniel Bryan from getting pummeled by Randy Orton and The Shield. The “active protest” did not sit well with COO Triple H, who lined up some fair and honest competition on SmackDown. But Michael Cole was quick to question just how fair the night was for some. Could the COO be soon faced with an all-out rebellion from some Superstars?

"TRUE" DIVA VS. "TOTAL DIVAS"
Divas Champion AJ Lee declared that she will single-handedly defeat all of E!’s “Total Divas,” starting with Naomi on SmackDown. The spitfire Diva backed up her words by making Naomi tap out to the Black Widow, as third-generation Diva Natalya looked on from the announce table. Which Diva will AJ look to tangle with next?

DEADLIER VIPER
Randy Orton has shed his skin and revealed the dormant, sadistic side of WWE’s Apex Predator — as The Miz experienced firsthand on last week’s Raw. On SmackDown, The Viper issued a painful promise: He won’t just reclaim the WWE Championship at the first-ever WWE Battleground pay-per-view, but he’ll also massacre his opponent, Daniel Bryan, along the way.

RVD'S SECOND CHANCE
Triple H might not be on the top of some Superstars’ current favorite lists, but Rob Van Dam has to be thankful to some degree. On SmackDown, the COO offered the highflier another opportunity at Alberto Del Rio’s World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Battleground. But after the big news, Del Rio carried out a vicious sneak attack on his No. 1 contender. Will RVD be out for retribution tonight on Raw?
