Standing behind a wall of fire, Kane made it clear that he?s disgusted by Cena?s ?Rise Above Hate? T-shirt slogan, because humans are hateful by nature. The twisted demon then said he?s going to help the powerful Superstar understand this by leading WWE fans in a chant of ?Cena sucks! Cena sucks!? Some members of the WWE Universe followed Kane, others didn't, but the outcry seemed to shake the confident competitor.

That?s when Laurinaitis announced his idea for the evening ? Punk will face three opponents in a Gauntlet Match and if any of those competitors beat the champion, they will receive a WWE Title Match next week on the first Raw of the New Year!?
The Straight Edge Superstar was game, but he wanted to up the ante. If the tattooed Superstar beat all three Superstars, he proposed that he get a fourth match with none other than John Laurinaitis himself.
