Raw Preview 01/03/11

On tonight's episode of WWE Raw, John Morrison will attempt to start the year off with gold. That's because Morrison gets his shot at The Miz and the WWE Championship in a Falls Count Anywhere match. The two former tag team partners and tag champs will do battle with Morrison looking to score big and bring home his first major title. However, The Miz seems to have a slight edge due to the fact he's got Alex Riley and possibly Michael Cole helping him out! Who will prevail in tonight's big battle over the WWE Championship belt?

Also, with the WWE Royal Rumble 2011 approaching fast, many of the Raw superstars are looking to gain entry into the big match. Last year's winner was Edge as he made his return from injury to shock everyone and win the event, eventually getting himself a main event match at Wrestlemania 27. Competitors like Randy Orton, John Cena and Sheamus would all like to win that match, so they will be looking for momentum as they start off the new year.

Speaking of John Cena, it's very likely that he'll want answers from CM Punk, as will the WWE Universe. Last week it was learned that Punk is in fact in charge of The Nexus now. After Nexus attacked John Cena (without Wade Barrett as leader), their new management arrived to the ring, CM Punk. It appears Punk has taken issue with WWE's top star and is going to make Cena's life hell on Raw. What's in store next for Punk and Nexus? Will Punk reveal his plans and why he decided to join The Nexus?
