At WrestleMania XXIV, Randy Orton shocked the world by pinning John Cena and retaining his coveted WWE Championship at the Citrus Bowl.

Now that Orton has proven his dominance against not one, but two of Raw’s most powerful and skilled Superstars, who could possibly step forth to oppose him? And how will Triple H and Cena react after having been foiled in their attempts to recapture the WWE Championship? We'll find out as Raw rolls across town to Orlando's Amway Arena.

Unfortunately, Orton’s win wasn’t the only disappointment for WWE fans last night. After a legendary 36-year career, the "Nature Boy" Ric Flair was defeated by Shawn Michaels, and given a standing ovation by the 74,365 at the Citrus Bowl.

How will The Showstopper deal with the emotions involved in ending the career of his friend and 16-time World Champion? Will he be present as Flair returns to Raw tonight for his farewell address to our fans worldwide?

Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho was two rungs away from claiming the Money in the Bank briefcase at WrestleMania before slipping, and CM Punk outraced him to the case to win the match. Y2J faces the new “Mr. Money in the Bank” tonight on Raw in a non-title match, looking to even the score with the Straightedge Superstar.

And after Maria was on the losing end of the BunnyMania Lumberjack Match at WrestleMania, the latest Playboy cover girl will look to put an end to the meddling of her former beau, Santino Marella, by facing him in the ring tonight.
