Raw Five-Point preview: July 30, 2012
We were shocked – shocked, we say – when CM Punk seemingly snapped on Raw 1,000 and GTS-ed The Rock into a catatonic state after The Great One interfered following Punk’s WWE Title Match against John Cena to close the show. The Second City Saint left without another word as boos rained down upon him for the first time since the “pipe bomb,” with Rock splayed in ruin across the canvas and a thousand questions echoing in the WWE Universe’s collective mind. Elsewhere, Cena found himself on the wrong side of history, and Raw got itself the unlikeliest of General Managers by appointment of Mr. McMahon himself. Here are five things to look out for on Raw 1,001.
Will AJ follow path blazed by WWE's past powerful women in charge?
You could make a thousand guesses on the type of General Manager that AJ will be – and you still might be wrong on every single one. The H.D.I.C. – or Head Diva in Charge – has kept both WWEperformers and members of the WWE Universe constantly on their toes, wondering what she'll do or say next.
The 1,000th episode of Raw was no exception, as AJ stranded Daniel Bryan at the altar and instead said "YES!" to Mr. McMahon's proposal to become the permanent Raw General Manager. Is she as unstable as some believe? Or did each of her unconventional moves over the past couple of months have a distinct purpose, ultimately guiding her ascent up WWE's ranks?
While AJ prepares to take the helm of the red brand, WWE.com takes a closer look at her predecessors – four female authority figures who made their mark on sports-entertainment with their bold attitudes, savvy decision-making and outside-the-box methods. (WATCH PLAYLIST)
