After all, he was responsible for him being out for so long. The response from Triple H was to pedigree him through a table.<\/p>\n<p>The first match was the return of high flying Evan Bourne as he fought King Sheamus. The losing streak would continue as Sheamus would lose to the high flying superstar.<\/p>\n<p>Next up was Michael Cole coming into the ring and saying he accepts Jerry \u201cThe King\u201d Lawler\u2019s challenge with two conditions. The first is Michael Cole was to name a special guest referee of his choosing for the match. The second is that he would be trained and have Jack Swagger in his corner.<\/p>\n<p>Lawler accepted and then was attacked by Jack Swagger and trapped in an ankle lock.<\/p>\n<p>The next announcement was a big one: the \u2018\u2019Texas Rattlesnake\u2019\u2019 Stone Cold Steve Austin would be returning to RAW next week.

Mixed feelings in that Undertaker retired him and if his friend were to win, he would be upset that he didn\u2019t get the opportunity to end the Undertaker\u2019s streak of 18-0 at Wrestlemania. But he said ultimately he won\u2019t know how he feels until the match starts.<\/p>\n<p>There was another interview with The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) where he talked about how Cena\u2019s comments about him upset him because he came from a wrestling family.
