-We start the show with Chris Jericho in the parking lot with a megaphone begging fans to sign his petition to get him back on Raw. When fans refuse he says he feels scared for the children of America.
-We start things off with a rapper, but not the one you were expecting. John Cena heads to the ring for a few words to kick things off. Cena goes under the ring, and gets a table which he brings into the ring. Cena sits on the far right corner, and says two weeks ago this is where WWE Champion. He points at the table, and says that right there is how Sheamus champion. He says tonight on the final Raw of 2009 he gets his rematch. He suggests we go ahead and have the rematch right now, and we can't just have a regular match. He wants a tables match. Sheamus comes out and asks if Cena is for real. He says Cena is the challenger and he is the one with something to prove. He doesn't have to prove anything because he is the Champion. He says that means Raw belongs to him. Cena corrects him saying that Raw belongs to the fans WWE Universe. Sheamus says the match will be on his terms, so the match will not be a tables match. Sheamus says he's going to beat Cena straight up, one on one, in the main event later tonight. He says the last image on Raw of 2009 is him standing over Cena's bruised and battered body holding his WWE Championship. Sheamus starts to walk away, but Cena goes after him and delivers an Attitude Adjustment through the table.
-We head back to Timbaland's party where he is joined by the Bella's and Gail Kim. Josh Mathews stops by for a few questions, and he wants to know the status of tonight's WWE Championship. Timbaland says he's the captain of the ship, and why would he postpone "the biggest match of the century." He asks the fans if they want to see Sheamus and Cena get it on for the title. The fans of course respond in the affirmative, so he says its official.
-Cody and Ted head through the locker room discussing Ted's movie when they run into Orton. Randy thinks it's time to break up Legacy. He says he's wasted the last year and a half of his life with them. He says last week three men who have nothing in common beat them, and wants to know how that happens. They ask if he's serious, but he says he's not WWE Champion and they're not Tag Team Champions. He doesn't associate with failures. They say they shouldn't be called failures, because they've saved his ass so many times. He does arrange for them to prove themselves tonight by facing the men who beat them last week. Dibiase faces Evan Bourne while Cody faces Mark Henry. If they lose they're out of Legacy, and he's going to "beat the living hell out of them."
