We get a video package of last week's tag title change.

Raw starts now!

Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler are our commentators for this evening.

John Cena is out to kick off the show. 2 weeks ago, the new General Manager made a match for Summerslam, Cena vs. Batista. He says he has never had an issue with Batista, but now he has a match with him, and last week they became tag team champions. He says Adamle is all about hype. Adamle asked him earlier what they could do to hype this match more. Cena had to explain to him that he does not know what he's done. He's put John Cena and Dave Batista in a match for the first time ever. You don't need a photo op or pose down, you just need John Cena and Batista in this very ring right now.

Batista is out now. Batista says here he is. Cena says last week they went in as allies not enemies and the good news is, they won the titles. The bad news is, tonight, they have a rematch and if they don't co-exist, they'll both suffer defeat. That's not going to be the case at Summerslam, because they'll be enemies. This is a match that has been six years in the making. Cena says he's been watching Dave. He saw him get hand-picked by Flair and Triple H, and he was put in the position where he was taught everything that the business can throw at you. Cena never had that but every week he turned critics into believers and now every Monday, he stands before a nation that goes to battle with him. Their resumes are both impressive, but between Cena and Batista, who's better? On Sunday, we answer that question, and it's going to be [Cena].

Batista says he's been watching Cena too, and they're two different sides to the same coin. They've both won Rumble matches, Mania main events, heavyweight championship and tag championships. Through all that, Cena never changed and he respects that. But he wouldn't be caught dead doing some of the things he does and some people over the age of 15 would want to see him beat Cena senseless, and he will do just that. Sunday, Batista will answer the question, and the answer is him.

They stare down now. Cena offers his hand… and Batista takes it.

Kelly Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix with Santino Marella

Beth backs her into the corner so Kelly slaps and mounts her, but Beth tosses her off. Kelly kicks Beth in the head and hits a head scissors takeover and rolls her up for 2. Forearms by Kelly, but she runs into a slam. Beth bends Kelly Kelly around the bottom rope and chokes her, then gets a cover for 2. Kelly Kelly counters a press slam into a sunset flip for 2, but Beth comes back with rights only to run into a boot. Kelly Kelly's top slipped off and her entire bare nipples were revealed. Holy hell. We've got 2 screenshots at the link below. Chickenwing facebuster by Beth though, and that's that.
