Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for March 16th, 2015!

All segments courtesy of Prince Watercress!

The Authority (Kane, Big Show, Seth Rollins, Joey Mercury, Jamie Noble) start the show. Rollins feels betrayed after Orton's actions last week. He goes on to say his betrayal of The Shield (Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns) was a sound business decision while Orton's betrayal of him was nothing more than disgusting and psychopathic. Big Show apologizes to Seth Rollins, saying he feels personally responsible. Kane says that Orton will betraying them, and Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury are distraught, and Mercury can't even speak. Rollins then accepts Orton's challenge to a match at WrestleMania 31, on the condition that Orton face him tonight on Raw. As Rollins badmouths Orton again, Orton shows up and accepts his part of the bargain, saying he doesn't mind a 5-on-1 match as it will still be worth it to strike Rollins down. He tells Rollins to finish the job, because if he doesn't, he'll finish him at WrestleMania.

Nikki Bella beats AJ Lee, much thanks to a distraction by a melee between Brie Bella and Paige at ringside.


Renee Young interviews Kane and Big Show. Kane states that Big Show will be in Seth Rollins' corner tonight, but Show tells him that this is the first they've heard of him and yells at him to at least give him the option of making that decision himself. As Kane and Show bicker, Seth Rollins shows up and yells at them, telling them that this is what got them sent home and that they need to see the big picture. Kane tells Rollins to watch his tongue and tells him that he and Show enjoyed Orton humbling him like he did last week, and Kane tells him that he's been an entitled, spoiled brat ever since he helped him win the Money in the Bank Briefcase. Kane tells Rollins he won't be in his corner tonight, and extends that courtesy to Big Show...who also decides not to side with Rollins, either.

Ryback beats The Miz. Miz hits the Skull-crushing Finale while Mizdow was helping him up and storms out afterwards.


Michael Cole hosts the contract signing for the United States title match between John Cena and Rusev at WrestleMania 31. John Cena shows up first, and says that the contract that he is about to sign is the most important one of all due to all that is at stake, and says that while Rusev is United States champ, he represents everyone in the crowd, and says that's not a good thing. He plans to fix that by beating Rusev at WrestleMania. He then signs the contract. Cole then introduces Rusev, who is without Lana and is dressed in a suit for once. Another representative takes Lana's place, and they both walk down the ring so Rusev can sign the contract, which he almost does. The guy who accompanied Rusev, however, is his attorney, who says that Rusev will not sign, saying that Rusev did not agree to this match in any way. However, he says that Rusev will sign if Cena curbs his "American barbaric behavior" and lets Rusev read his written statement, where he proceeds to bash America. Cena wants to jump Rusev, but the attorney gets in the way. After Rusev is done, he signs the contract, then topples the table, almost hitting Cena with it before fleeing.


Tyson Kidd & Cesaro beats The New Day (Big e. & Kofi Kingston). After the match, Los Matadores (Fernando & Diego), who were at ringside during the match, brawled with The New Day. Xavier Woods is thrown in the ring by Los Matadores, only to be Neutralized by Cesaro. El Torito gets involved, sneak attacking Cesaro from behind. Cesaro tries to come back, but is ultimately tossed out of the ring by Torito.



Seth Rollins tells J&J Security (Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble) to stay on their game and be in his corner, but Noble is at odds with Rollins for not trusting him concerning Orton and telling him and Mercury to leave last week. Both of them argue, and Noble quits after Rollins slaps him in the face and Mercury has to stop him from fighting each other. Mercury walks away along with Noble soon after this.

Brock Lesnar speaks about his current situation regarding his WrestleMania match against Roman Reigns in a pre-taped interview.


Big Show viciously assaults Erick Rowan before their match can even begin.


"The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko is announced as the next inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2015.

Paul Heyman is in the ring. He states that Brock Lesnar will destroy Roman Reigns and walk away with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31. As Heyman keeps saying that Roman Reigns can't beat Lesnar, Roman Reigns shows up and says that he may get carried out, but he'll be carried out with the WWE World Heavyweight title.


Renee Young interviews Paul Heyman, who annouces that Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar will say their last statements towards each other before WrestleMania 31.

R-Truth guest on commentary for the next match.

Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler and Daniel Bryan beats Luke Harper, Stardust and Bad News Barrett. After the match, Luke Harper blindsides Ambrose before going after the I.C, Title, which is in R-Truth's possession. While trying to get the title, Ambrose attacks Harper from behind. Stardust is able to retrieve the title momentarily, but he and Ambrose brawl in the audience. R-Truth gets the title again, but this time, he is not as successful as Luke Harper grasps the title. Ambrose attacks him yet again. In the ring, Bryan has the title, but before he can go off with it, Bad News Barrett steps in the ring and hits three consecutive Bullhammers, and one to R-Truth on the outside of the ring.


Seth Rollins ends up making Triple H and Stephanie McMahon mad when he blames them for the chain of events that led to him, in the words of Stephanie, alienating everyone in the Authority. Stephanie tells him to man up, while Triple H tells him to get out of the office before his situation goes from bad to worse. Rollins, having now alienated HHH and Stephanie, gets out of the room.



Bray Wyatt says that The Undertaker failed to intimidate him, and that at WrestleMania, he will become the new face of fear.



Next week on Raw: Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar face-to-face; Snoop Dogg and ESPN analyst Bill Simmons will guest star on Raw next week.

Seth Rollins tells Randy Orton before their match that he has made a fool out of him in three hours after Orton fooled him for three weeks, as he reveals that The Authority (Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Kane, Big Show, Joey Mercury, Jamie Noble) turned against him on purpose to mess with him. Orton grabs a steel chair, and before he can fight anyone, the lights turn off, then come back on. Sting is in the ring, and they both fight off The Authority together. Orton and Sting stand tall together in the ring.



In a WWE Network exclusive, Randy Orton tells Sting he didn't need him to have his back, but he does admit that cool and shakes hands with him. Sting also speaks for the first time ever in WWE, saying he's been waiting 14 years to get in this ring, and he plans to take Triple H down at WrestleMania 31.
