Raw Results: Ready, Willing and Table

Jerry “The King” Lawler wasn’t in the mood. After Michael Cole interfered in his match last week against WWE Champion The Miz – and likely cost him the title – Lawler sat impatiently through an apology from his announce partner. Before “The King” could let his fists do the talking, though, the anonymous Raw General Manager informed the two that if either of them got physical, they would be fired. Not only that, the two were forced to shake hands in the ring – and were then joined by a surprise guest.

Randy Orton used the occasion to send a message to The Miz: He vowed that he would reclaim his title. The WWE Champion informed The Viper, however, that, according to the Raw GM, he is not required to defend his title for another two weeks at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs. Miz’s assistant, Alex Riley, on the other hand, was fair game. The “Cleveland Screamer’s” associate challenged Orton to a match, which The Viper readily accepted despite nursing a knee injury he suffered on the night he lost he title to Miz. To prove that, regardless of his knee, he can still punish opponents, Orton leveled Cole with a crushing RKO. Full results.
