(↑) 4. Wade Barrett ~ Barrett's week started off on RAW where he took on the WWE Champion CM Punk. Following a distraction from Jericho, Barrett managed to get Punk up on his shoulders and hit the Wasteland for the three count. Barrett decided not to cash in on this night but made sure we all had the image of him standing over the fallen WWE Champion with his Money In The Bank briefcase in his hand firmly in our minds. This firm show of power was enough to propel him up in this week's Power 25. [5]

(↓) 5. CM Punk ~ Punk made the mistake this week of getting on the wrong side of RAW General Manger, Erick Bischoff; something which Punk has a knack of. Punk would then go on to face Wade Barrett in the Main Event and, after a distraction from Chris Jericho, he fell prey to the Wasteland and was defeated by the current Money In The Bank holder. Barrett left a firm image in our minds of him standing over the fallen WWE Champion with his briefcase in hand but it was the image of Jericho celebrating with the WWE Championship over Punk's fallen body which was left with us as the show went off the air. After such a bad week, it was iminent that Punk would fall in the ranks of the Power 25. [4]

(↑) 6. Undertaker ~ After being interrupted by Goldberg two weeks ago, Undertaker returned the favour this week and interrupted Goldberg before he even had the chance to speak. However, it was Goldberg who would once again surprise Undertaker this week as Goldberg hit Undertaker with a Spear, minutes after the Deadman got in the ring. Undertaker managed to make it on our Power 25 this week due to the fact that he was still able to sit up following the Spear but he better be careful in the following weeks not to drop in our estimations. [N/A]

(↓) 7. Chris Jericho ~ Jericho started off this week by getting on the good side of RAW General Manager, Eric Bischoff, and making sure he had his side in this current war between Jericho and WWE Champion CM Punk. After a quick, emphatic victory over R-Truth, Jericho took a back seat and waited until it was time for Punk's match later on in the night. Jericho got on the apron and distracted Punk to give Barrett the victory and then proceeded to celebrate over Punk's fallen body with the WWE Championship in his grasp. However, due to other bigger events in the week Jericho still managed to fall down the Power 25 this week. [6]

(↓) 8. John Cena ~ John Cena was set to have a match against JTG this week but due to a sneak attack from Dolph Ziggler which incapacited the CeNation leader, Cena was replaced in this match by Tyler Reks. Following the match Cena came back down to the ring and took out JTG before addressing Ziggler, calling him out. It looked like Ziggler accepted the call as his music hit but Cena's eyes were fixed on the stage and Ziggler slipped in from the crowd and locked in the Sleeper Hold on Cena, keeping it locked in until the point where Cena was rendered unconscious. Cena needs to gain an advantage over Ziggler, and sooner rather than later. [2]

(↓) 9. Randy Orton ~ Due to the fact that Orton was not in the action this week, he was sure to fall in the ranks but he would fallen further had it not been for his show of dominance over Kane this week. After Kane easily defeated Ezekiel Jackson, Orton made a beeline for the line only to be taken out by Kane. Kane could have left on top but instead went to add insult to injury but before he could hit Orton with the Tombstone, Orton slipped out and took out Kane with an RKO. Orton was close to punting Kane's brain out but Kane smartly got out of harm's way but surely an act like this can only anger the Big Red Machine? [8]

(↑) 10. Alberto Del Rio ~ Del Rio may not have been in action this week but he still made an impact and thus is moving up in our ranks, just making it into the Top 10. As The Miz took on Zack Ryder, trying to show up Alberto Del Rio, Del Rio would arrive in a Rolls Royce which served as a worthy distraction and gave Santino Marella the chance to get a huge victory over The Miz. Del Rio may have had the chance to move up further had he not too cocky and got a Cobra from Santino Marella for his troubles. [10]

(↓) 11. The Miz ~ The Miz was on top of his game at the start of RAW this week, proclaiming that he was going to defeat Santino Marella and then find a tag partner to challenge for the WWE Tag Team Championships. However, things would take a turn for the worse during his match and, after a distraction from Alberto Del Rio, Miz was taken out by a Rough Ryder from Zack Ryder which allowed Santino Marella to make the cover and get the victory. It would appear Del Rio isn't finished with The Miz and if Miz can get back at Del Rio next week then he may stand a chance at moving back up in the Power 25 ranks. [7]

(↓) 12. Daniel Bryan ~ Daniel Bryan kicked things off this week on Smackdown, talking about his match with Sheamus at Backlash. However, Sheamus didn't want to hear him talk, he wanted to fight. Sheamus went to attack Bryan but AJ stood in Sheamus' way and gave the chance for Bryan to flee. Bryan took the rest of the night off and it is for this reason that Bryan moves down this week's Power 25. [9]

(↓) 13. Kane ~ Kane's week started off with a big victory over Ezekiel Jackson on Smackdown and it looked to get even better as he took out Randy Orton as he attempted to attack him post-match. However, Kane had the chance to leave but instead chose to attempt to injure Orton even more. He got him up for the Tombstone but Orton got out of the hold and took down the Big Red Machine with an RKO. Kane was left staring up at the rafters as he fell down the rankings. [12]

(↓) 14. Mark Henry ~ Mark Henry had a relatively easy week with just a rematch from Wrestlemania XXVII, taking on The Great Khali. Henry beat him with relative ease but decided to add even more injury to Khali after the match by hitting him with a second World's Strongest Slam. Henry may have shown great power and dominance here but it was not enough to move up in the rankings. [13]

(↓) 15. Cody Rhodes ~ Cody Rhodes kicked off his week with a match against WWE Tag Team Champion Santino Marella and when he came out wearing a Sin Cara mask, it was obvious that he was attempting to mock his Backlash opponent. In hinesight this was a costly mistake on the part of Rhodes as Sin Cara came down during the match and distracted the referee so that Zack Ryder could take out Rhodes leaving his tag team partner with the opportunity to pin the Intercontinental Champion. Cara then threw Rhodes out of the ring post match and Rhodes was left looking like an idiot, forcing us to push him down in the rankings. [11]

(↓) 16. Beth Phoenix ~ Beth's first appearance of the week when she appeared on the titantron to inform Natalya that she would face The Bella Twins in her Pick The Poison Match on Tuesday. This came back to bite her however as Natalya defeated the two divas with ease. However, as Divas Champion, Beth can back her words with actions in the ring and she dominated Alicia Fox in the Main Event and defeated her following a big Glam Slam. Natalya attempted to attack Beth after the match but Beth had her number and knocked out her Backlash challenger with a shot from the Divas Championship and ended the show on top. Unfortunately for Beth, there were more impressive going ons in this week. [14]

(↓) 17. Santino Marella & Zack Ryder ~ Santino and Zack have had an incredible week which started off with Zack Ryder picking up a big victory over The Miz thanks to a distraction from Alberto Del Rio. They then went onto Smackdown where Santino Marella picked up a victory over Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes. Had the two of them beaten their opponents without outside interference they may have moved up this week but, once again, due to other outsanding moments/matches this week they were forced down the board. [15]

(↓) 18. David Otunga ~ Otunga had yet another outstanding week which started off with a big victory over Kofi Kingston, after which United States Champion Evan Bourne came out and accepted Otunga's challenge at a United States Championship match. Otunga then made an appearance on Superstars, aiding Primo & Epico in their victory over Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston. Otunga then laid out Bourne after the match and ended the night celebrating with the United States Championship. Unfortunately for Otunga, his circumstances for this weeks Power 25 were the same as many others this week. [17]

(↓) 19. Evan Bourne ~ Evan Bourne had a rather unfortunate week where he lost in a Tag Team Match to Primo & Epico thanks to interference from David Otunga. Otunga then laid Bourne out after the match and Bourne slipped down in the ranks. [16]

(↓) 20. Christian ~ Christian had a phenomenal match this week when he faced off against Big Show in a No Holds Barred Match. Both men put all they had into the match and, after knocking out Show, Christian picked up the victory. Despite this huge victory, which has put Show out on the injury shelf, Christian fell victim to not being on as grand a stage as others this week and also fell down the board. [19]

(↓) 21. Eve ~ Eve was not present at all this week and was lucky to stay on the board. [18]

(↓) 22. Rey Mysterio ~ Mysterio faced a big challenge this week in the form of Mason Ryan and many felt that he may lose but after hitting a 619 he picked up a victory but still managed to fall down the board this week. [20]

(↓) 23. Natalya ~ Natalya's week started off with a big victory over The Bella Twins before she chose Beth Phoenix's opponent to be Alicia Fox. After Beth defeated Alicia, Natalya attempted to blindside Beth but was taken out by a Divas Championship shot and fell down to the mat and down the board. [21]

(↔) 24. Primo & Epico ~ Primo & Epico picked up a cheap win over Evan Bourne & Kofi Kingston on Superstars after David Otunga provided the interference. Despite this cheap victory, it was still a victory and they managed to retain their spot on the board. [24]

(↑) 25. Curt Hawkisn & Tyler Reks ~ Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks have been extremely impressive as of late and that was no exception this week. JTG was meant to face John Cena this week but instead ended up facing Tyler Reks. Reks was very impressive in this match and ended it after nailing him with the Burning Hammer. Hawkins would then face Justin Gabriel on Superstars where he won after hitting Gabriel with a back-suplex off the top rope. We would then go on to Smackdown where the two teamed up and defeated The Usos after Reks took out Jey with the Burning Hammer. They have made it onto the board this week and if they are successful again next week they could climb even higher. [N\A]

This weeks Farewells:

Hunico
Kelly Kelly
Tamina

Next week's Hopefuls:

Mason Ryan
Rosa Mendes
Sin Cara
Ted DiBiase
Vickie Guerrero
Yoshi Tatsu

WWE Monday night Raw (4/16/12) "Clap Your Hands if You Believe"

The Monday Night Raw video plays, and we’re brought into the arena with a big fireworks display. Jim Ross and Jerry “The King” Lawler welcome us to the show. Tonight the WWE Universe will be confronted by HBK Shawn Michaels. Dolph Ziggler's music hits and Dolph makes his way down to the ring. Ziggler says that after WrestleMania people were calling him a loser because he tapped out to CM Punk at WrestleMania, but now after knocking out John Cena for three weeks in a row no one dares to call him a loser. Ziggler says that he is the best thing going right now in the WWE and he will humilate and embarrass John Cena at Backlash. John Cena comes out to the ramp and he congratulates Dolph on making an impact for the last three weeks. He says that he understands where Ziggler's coming from. Years ago Cena was in the same place as Ziggler is. He was searching for a top dog so he can make a name for himself. He brings out the names of Brock Lesnar, Kurt Angle and the Undertaker and says they all crashed him. It took him long time until he finally got his big victory and became the man he is right now. He admits that Ziggler is extremely talented and an a lot promising superstar but he has decided to jump on the wrong top dog. Cena says that at Backlash all those cheap shots and attacks from behind that Ziggler did will come back to hunt him. Ziggler says that at Backlash he will prove that he is better than Cena in any way possible. Ziggler then demands that Cena gets in the ring and shakes his hand. Cena mockinly says that's all he ever wanted, he gets in the ring but Ziggler quickly takes him down with the leg-drop bulldog. Ziggler taunts Cena and mocks him. Cena gets up and Ziggler quickly leaves the ring. Cena looks angry at first but then he smiles at Ziggler.

We see HBK Shawn Michaels making his way towards the arena.

A promo for the WrestleMania XXVIII DVD & Blue-Ray airs.

Shawn Michaels comes out to a big pop from the crowd. HBK gets in the ring and he says that the reason he wanted to be out here tonight is because of what transpired at WrestleMania. He says that he allowed his ego and his pride to get into his head and he did eveything he could to make sure that Triple H would end the Undertaker's streak inside Hell in a Cell. HBK apologizes for his actions at WrestleMania. He apologizes to the Undertaker, to Triple H and to the entire world. He says that when he saw the Undertaker hitting that Tombstone to Triple H he knew it was all over that's why he made the final count.

IF YA SMEEEEEL!

The Rock comes out to a huge crowd reaction. Rock makes his way down to the ring and gets a mic. He says that finally the Rock has come back to Washington, D.C. The Rock says that he needed some time to regroup after that match with John Cena at WrestleMania but he is finally here and if anyone thought that he would leave again they were wrong. He says that at WrestleMania he and Cena gave a hell of a match and it's no secret that after that battle they have nothing but respect for each other. He then says that he and Cena will meet in the ring again someday and the result will be different. HBK says that he is glad to see the Rock and all but he doesn't get why the Rock decided to come out here right now and say all that. Rock says that he is out here for two reasons. First to let the people know that he is not gone and secondly because he wants to talk to Shawn Michaels. He says that over the years HBK has earned the right to be called the greatest in ring performer in the history of the WWE. HBK is the Icon, Mr. WrestleMania. But he says that there is one thing that Shawn Michaels has never done and one thing that the Rock himself has never done. Shawn Michaels has never faced the Rock and the Rock has never faced Shawn Michaels. Rock asks Shawn Michaels to come out of retirement for one last match at next year's WrestleMania, WrestleMania 29. The Rock vs Shawn Michaels at the grandest stage of them all, Icon vs Icon! The crowd chants "One more match". Michaels takes a moment and then he says that he has nothing but respect for the Rock and he would love to get in the ring with him and give the world a dream match that they would talk about for years to come. But it's over. He says that he retired after wrestling the greatest WrestleMania match against the Undertaker and now he is done. Rock says that Shawn's matches against the Undertaker at WrestleMania were epic but the greatest WrestleMania match has yet to be seen. It's not the Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels, it's not The Rock vs John Cena, it's The Rock vs Shawn Michaels. So he once again asks HBK for one more match. Michaels says that he is sorry but he can't. HBK leaves the ring as the crowd boos. Rock tells HBK to come back and think about it but Michaels leaves. Rock stays in the ring disapointed as the crowd chants "one more match".

Yeah actually about the Draft, I changed My mind.

I was going to announce that there will not be a Draft this year and instead, Bischoff's team would face Teddy's team at Vengeance with the winning brand getting 5 superstars from the other roster but that idea has been dropped.

Instead, there will be an actual WWE Draft on the June 11 edition of Monday night Raw. That's 24 hours after the Vengeance PPV.
