WWE RAW REPORT: MATCHES ANNOUNCED FOR TLC; DANIEL BRYAN IS BACK; A 'TRADITIONAL WRESTLING' CONTRACT SIGNING; AN UPSET IN THE RING; AND MORE

We are in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and your announcers are John â€˜At least we have Jack Swagger to give the home town treatmentâ€™ Layfield, Michael â€˜Switzerâ€™ Cole, and Jerry â€˜UWFâ€™ Lawler.

CM Punk makes his way to the ring because his music is playing.

We see what happened on last weekâ€™s Raw when Roman Reigns speared CM Punk and then Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins joined Reigns to give Punk the Cerberus Bomb.

Punk says for one entire week he has been thinking about why The Shield attacked him. Then tonight in Oklahoma City, he realized that he is in denial. He knows deep down why he was attacked, but he wants to be wrong this one time. He made the cardinal sin of criticizing Triple H on Raw.

It was one of those comments. He said that Hunter lacked creativity, or something else. Later in the show, he is attacked by The Shield. Who is he to question the mighty King of Kings. Punk says that he hopes it is a coincidence. If not, he knows what is behind that door.

Punk says that he likes living in his own universe. Hunter isnâ€™t that dense to kick a living hornetâ€™s nest. He isnâ€™t that dense to pick a fight with someone who prides himself in being one of the biggest anti-authority figures in the WWE.

If Punk is right, the Authority are the biggest group of sorry, ignorant, douchebags he has ever encountered in his life.

Stephanie McMahon, one of the principal owners of WWE, makes her way onto the stage. Stephanie tells Punk that she hopes him and everyone else had a good Thanksgiving. She says that there are no bigger advocates of free speech than her family. Her husband is one of the founding members of Degeneration X.

Are they in kindergarten to have Triple H send the Shield out if Punk says something about him.

Stephanie says that they will not want to impose their standards and beliefs on Punk. They were just as upset as Punk was when the Shield attacked him last week.

Punk says that he does not believe Stephanie.

Stephanie says that notwithstanding Punkâ€™s ego, there are bigger things to deal with like the contract signing for the monumental Title versus Title match at TLC. If Punk has any grievances, he can address them to their Director of Operations, Kane.

Kane says that he is here to make sure that WWE runs smoothly. The findings of Punkâ€™s accusations support Stephanieâ€™s claims that they did nothing wrong and the Authority is absolved.

He asks Kane if he has any questions.

Punk wants to know when Kane became the Big Red Ass Kisser.

Kane tells Punk not to take this lightly and Punk tells Kane not to patronize him. Kane tells Punk that they are not the enemy and he advises Punk not to go down this path.

Punk says that we will go down a different path. Since Kane sold out and hung up his mask for a cheap suit. Why not come to the ring so he can be knocked out. He says that he can knock out Kane or make him go to sleep.

Stephanie keeps Kane from going to the ring.

The Shieldâ€™s music plays and Stephanie is shocked at their appearance.

Stephanie stops the Shield and she says that we will not have a repeat of what happened last week. CM Punk is to be respected and admired.

Stephanie leaves and then Kane says that he is also to be challenged. CM Punk will be in a handicap match at TLC against all three members of the Shield.

Michael Cole reads a note that there will be one champion at the end of TLC. It is time to go to the WWE App to vote for the â€˜titleâ€™ of the new champion.

We go to commercial.
