WWE Changed the Raw Line-Up Mid-Show Due to RawActive Voting
– WWE had to change the match line-up for Raw midway through the show due to the poll results for CM Punk’s opponent. Chris Jericho won the poll, but WWE had expected Orton to win and ended up switching opponents as a result. This meant that Jericho lost his second match in a row since coming back in order to make Punk look strong while Orton beat Barrett once again.
The original plan had Jericho beating Barrett and Punk beating Orton.
