WATCH WWE Monday Night Raw Live Stream Online, 12/22/14 Edition Featuring Royal Rumble Build, John Cena, Hulk Hogan

The December 22, 2014 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from the Target Center in Minneapolis at 8 p.m. Eastern and will build toward the Royal Rumble pay-per-view in January.

The show will air on the USA Network but if you can't watch on TV, then you can try here or here, both of which broadcast free live streams of the show (this may require downloading a torrent).

John Cena is on a collision course with Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at the Royal Rumble, and this will mark the third time in six pay-per-views that the two will square off for the richest prize in the game. Lesnar demolished Cena for the title at SummerSlam, but Cena won the rematch (but not the title) by disqualification atNight of Champions when Seth Rollins interfered.

Lesnar made his return to WWE television on Raw last week. He attacked Chris Jericho to defend Paul Heyman, then returned in the lengthy back-and-forth main event. For the finish, Rollins tried to escape the cage, but Cena climbed up and stopped him. He delivered an Attitude Adjustment from the top rope and both men were down. Lesnar's music hit and he entered the cage. He delivered multiple German Suplexes to Cena as Heyman posed with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt outside the cage.

Lesnar planted Cena with an F5 and stared down Rollins. Heyman came in the ring and offered his hand to Rollins. Mr. Money in the Bank shook it, Curb Stomped Cena, and walked out of the cage with his briefcase.

Cena would likely be looking for some payback tonight, though it's never a guarantee that Lesnar would be in the house. Does this mean the 15-time champion will set his sights on Heyman?
