The following is a summary of all the big news, notes, and happenings from tonight's WWE Raw TV show following the Over the Limit PPV last night.

-- WWE champion John Cena vs. Randy Orton vs. Edge vs. Sheamus was established as the main event for the Fatal Four-Way PPV in June. (READ MORE DETAILS.)

-- R-Truth became the new U.S. champion after defeating The Miz to capture the vacant U.S. Title. WWE announced that Bret Hart vacated the U.S. Title after capturing the title from The Miz on last week's Raw. (.)

-- Bret Hart was named the new Raw General Manager at the beginning of the show, which is why the storyline unfolded with Hart dropping the U.S. Title.

-- Randy Orton's sole TV appearance was at the end of Raw when he appeared on stage to stare down the other three wrestlers in the Fatal Four-Way main event match. Orton didn't have to move much, but he was not selling any effects from last night's injury at the Over the Limit PPV.

-- At the top of the show, Batista was written off WWE TV when he "quit WWE." New Raw GM Bret Hart offered him a qualifying match for the Fatal Four-Way main event, but Batista turned it down and "quit" in a highly-entertaining performance.

-- Jimmy & Jules Uso debuted in an angle attacking Unified tag champions Hart Dynasty. The Usos have been working in WWE's developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling. They were joined by their female manager from FCW, Tamina.

The Uso Brothers are the sons of former WWE wrestler Rikishi. Tamina, real-name Sarona Snuka, is the daughter of "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka. WWE did not formally give the trio a "WWE name" after their surprise attack on Hart Dynasty.

-- Raw guest host Jon Lovitz's main segment on the show was hosting a "WWE Talent Contest" that ended with Ted DiBiase, Jr. dropping Santino with Dream Street. DiBiase reportedly suffered a concussion on last night's PPV and did not wrestle on the show.

-- WWE officially announced Ashton Kutcher is the guest host for next week's Raw from Austin, Tex. on Memorial Day.
