Gettin' RAW: Monday Night RAW Recap for January 26, 2015

Gonna be honest with ya folks. Did not tune in to this episode of RAW, because it was basically going to be full of stuff I know was going to happen. Instead, I engulfed myself  into free Indy wrestling streams such as: FWE's ReFueled Night 2, Smash Wrestling's Challenge Accepted, and CHIKARA streams as well.

Tonight's live show in Hartford, Connecticut is cancelled due to extreme winter storm weather. The show is now a Royal Rumble recap show.

JBL performs a hilarious weather forecast from the top of Titan Towers.



We look back at John Cena vs. Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match from Royal Rumble.


Michael Cole interviews Seth Rollins, who says he deserved to be in the Triple Threat match at Royal Rumble and did everything he could in his attempt to walk out as WWE World Heavyweight Champion. He says even Brock Lesnar underestimated him, as he still has the Money In The Bank Briefcase. He also says he's not budging out of his seat for Brock Lesnar's interview after the break, and says he'll have to kick him out of the seat.


Daniel Bryan takes on Kane in a Casket Match this Thursday on SmackDown.

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up. Seth Rollins taunts Lesnar by toppling the chair over when he shows up, then leaves. Lesnar says he suffered a broken rib, but he was able to overcome it. Heyman says that Lesnar is for hire if Triple H and Stephanie McMahon need an answer for anything. Lesnar says he respects nobody, as he is "The Beast." He also hopes Roman Reigns is up for the challenge at WrestleMania 31, because he is.


We look back at the Royal Rumble match.

Byron Saxton interviews Roman Reigns. He compares his career with learning to swim: he's been thrown in the deep end and he's had to claw his way up. He also says he's bred for this business much like a lot of his family.


After Royal Rumble, Rusev interrupted Cena during an interview and got in his face. This lead to a very tense staredown between the two, and now they face each other at Fast Lane.

Triple H has called out Sting for a face-to-face confrontation at Fast Lane.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is the next inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2015.



Dean Ambrose has somehow made it into the studio.

Dean Ambrose tells Byron Saxton he hitchhiked to WWE Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut after he found out Raw was live over there.


Renee Young interviews Daniel Bryan. We hear about Daniel Bryan's road from last Royal Rumble to now. Bryan feels he has let the fans down by being eliminated early, but says that if Roman Reigns can make the same sacrifices that he's made, he could win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31.

Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar are in the same room. Paul Heyman takes over on the interview, and states that he's known Roman's family longer than Roman himself, but says Roman has no idea what he's up against. Roman tells Lesnar he'll beat him at WrestleMania 31, and if he can't, he'll take a piece of Lesnar down with him. Lesnar and Roman stare down and shake hands, then Lesnar tells Roman that unlike Heyman, he doesn't respect him. Roman says he will.
