Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for February 29, 2016

JUST A HEADS UP: No videos for this week. I know. I need to get better on these blogs. Meanwhile, enjoy the rest of the posts that I have set up for the week of 2/29-3/5/16!!!


Triple H makes his appearance to start tonight's show. Triple H says only few have it, and the rest bow down to it. That "it" is authority, and he plays to the people's fear to being destroyed by authority in order to know their place in life. He says that Roman should have known his place, as challenging and disrespecting him has led him to sitting at home breathing through his mouth. All of a sudden, Dean Ambrose shows up. He says he just got off the phone with Roman Reigns, and says that Roman told him he's coming for Triple H. Ambrose said he wanted to talk to him Triple H last week, but all the craziness from last week put a stop to that. Ambrose wants to know who Triple H wanted to see - or not see - win the Triple Threat match at Fastlane. Triple H says he didn't see Ambrose winning, but Ambrose asks if Triple H can see him now. Triple H is convinced Ambrose is legitimately crazy, and that Triple H is smart enough not to get in the ring with someone like him because - according to Ambrose - Triple H doesn't think he can beat him. Ambrose then challenges Triple H to a match tonight for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Triple H says he's the authority figure around here, but he says he'll think about it and give him an answer by the end of the night. Ambrose says he has other things to do, and Triple H says he's right, because Ambrose is going up against Alberto Del Rio tonight in an attempt to teach him what authority is.


Charlotte watches from ringside for the next match.

Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks to determine a #1 contender for the WWE Divas Championship ends with both women's shoulders down on the mat after Sasha Banks hits a Sunset Flip on Becky. Becky is on top of Sasha, but since all four shoulders were down, this match is a draw.



The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) appears. Bray thinks he is either insane or that his mind is key to saving the entire world. He asks the WWE Universe to take his hand and join him.



The Miz quickly beats Dolph Ziggler.



Stephanie McMahon shows up to accept the Vincent J. McMahon Legacy of Excellence Award as she intended to last week. She says that Shane McMahon isn't here tonight, and won't be after The Undertaker beats him at WrestleMania 32. She then tries to recite her speech for the award, but everyone keeps booing her and chanting for Shane. Stephanie McMahon finally snaps on the WWE Universe, ticked off with Shane for his actions last week and calling him a regular backstabber. She says it eats Shane alive that she wields power and that she's married to Triple H, and that the thought of working for Shane makes her want to vomit. She hopes that The Undertaker will decimate Shane and force everyone to bow down to her and Triple H.



The League of Nations (Sheamus and Rusev) beat The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) with a distraction from Alberto Del Rio. Del Rio attacks Kalisto after the match.

WWE has surpassed 10 million subscribers on YouTube.



Ryback, now re-focused on going solo, destroys Adam Rose.



Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) say they're successful because they're a brotherhood. They say they're the greatest three-man team in history and will fight anyone who says otherwise. As they talk about how they go together like other great teams (like Sonic and Tails), Chris Jericho's entrance stops them.



Chris Jericho and AJ Styles beats The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E) after Jericho turns a Trouble In Paradise into the Walls of Jericho. After the match, AJ Styles and Chris Jericho make it clear that "Y2AJ" is a thing and challenge The New Day to a match for the tag team titles next week.



Todd Chrisley of Chrisley Knows Best is in the front row with his youngest son.

Vince McMahon shows up. He doesn't like the idea of his son Shane McMahon running the show, and implies that he would ruin everything. He says it will never happen, and that it would take a miracle for Shane to beat The Undertaker. He loves Shane enough to teach him a lesson he'll never, ever forget, and introduces his "implement of destruction," The Undertaker. 'Taker shows up. He puts his hand on Vince's neck and tells him "You know what will happen when the door shuts behind me at WrestleMania...but the blood of your son is gonna be on your hands, not mine." 'Taker leaves. Vince says Shane has not only lost the match, but also his inheritance, which will all go to Stephanie. He even goes so far as to disown and renounce Shane as his son.



Bubba Ray Dudley beats Jey Uso thanks to the interference attempt from D-Von Dudley.



Goldust runs into R-Truth, who tells him that Golden Truth isn't going to happen. Goldust just walks away.



Country singer Randy Houser is in the front row tonight.

Big Show beats Kevin Owens after knocking him off the top rope.



Renee Young interviews Brie Bella. As Brie talks about how her family is doing, Lana shows up and makes fun of her life as of right now. Brie tells Lana to go back to her cave.

As Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch argue over who could have won, Charlotte shows up and says they have one more opportunity on SmackDown to decide who will be #1 contender to the Divas title. Charlotte then tells them they'll both lose regardless.



Next week: Chris Jericho and AJ Styles vs. The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) for the WWE Tag Team Championships! Shane McMahon also makes an appearance!

Dean Ambrose vs. Alberto Del Rio ends when Triple H shows up and sics The League of Nations (Sheamus, Del Rio, Rusev, King Barrett) on him. Triple H tells Dean he should know that he can never win against The Authority, which causes Dean Ambrose to throw punches at Triple H until he gets hit with a Pedigree. Triple H tells him he has his championship match, and as he leaves the ring, Dean Ambrose thanks Triple H through the microphone. Triple H then returns to the ring to do even more damage to Ambrose, and officials have to pull him off of Ambrose.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for February 1, 2016

During the Raw pre-show, Jojo interviews Dolph Ziggler. He says there are far worse ways to spend an evening that riding along with The Miz. Kevin Owens shows up and says there is, like watching Ziggler doing stand-up. Owens then makes fun of the fact that Ziggler was once world champ, and says that drama may be in his future. Ziggler knows they've got one more match, and that it's going to end with him super kicking Owens' face off.

The show begins with Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar. Heyman insists that Triple H and Stephanie McMahon concocted a conspiracy to remove him from the WWE World Heavyweight Championship picture, but have failed. Last week, Stephanie did what was "beast" for business by making "brother vs. brother vs. beast" at Fastlane with Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar, with the winner taking on Triple H for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 32, and promises Lesnar will conquer both Fastlane and WrestleMania 32. Heyman then makes fun of Dean Ambrose, calling him a "nutjob," before Ambrose himself shows up. Ambrose says he may look crazy, but he's not stupid and he's not scared of Lesnar. He respects Lesnar, but he wants the title, and he'll fight Lesnar and Reigns for it. Ambrose knows full well what he's in for, but he says he will still find a way to win. He then leaves the ring.



Alberto Del Rio guests on commentary for the next match. It is announced that Del Rio will get his championship rematch for the WWE United States Championship against Kalisto at Kalisto.

Kalisto beats Rusev by count-out.



Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns are taking a look at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship when Stephanie McMahon appears. Roman says that either him or Dean will be #1 contender after Fastlane, and that Stephanie and Triple H's days with the title are numbered. Stephanie tells Dean he doesn't exactly want to go to Suplex City, reminds him and Roman of the time Seth Rollins turned on them, and tries to drive a wedge between Roman and Dean while trying to shake their confidence before putting them in a tag team match tonight against The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods).



Renee Young interviews Brie Bella. She says the doctors are confident that Nikki Bella will get better soon. Charlotte shows up, talks about how she beat Nikki for the Divas Championship, then gloats about how she beat Nikki and how Nikki will start the next chapter of her life "sitting at home and enjoying online shopping" before walking away.

Before the next match, The Social Outcasts (Heath Slater, Curtis Axel, Adam Rose) cut a promo where they call themselves "the tightest group of brothers in the WWE," but realize Bo Dallas is missing. Slater says "Bo Rida" is in the studio cutting an album, then say they're going to beat The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso). Also, Lilian Garcia accidentally botches The Usos' introduction, saying they are Grammy Award winners and not Slammy Award winners.

The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) beat The Social Outcasts (Curtis Axel and Adam Rose).



It's time for Miz TV. Tonight's guest is AJ Styles. After a tale about how AJ Styles made it in high school football before moving on to wrestling, and recapping what AJ Styles has done in WWE as of late, he wonders where AJ Styles will go from here. He then says that AJ Styles reminds him of Daniel Bryan, who he took under his own wing and guided to greatness, and wants to become AJ's mentor. All the while, Miz refuses to hand the microphone over to AJ Styles. As the crowd boos, The Miz says that AJ Styles will fail if he continues to listen to the WWE Universe. When Miz says Styles has no chance in hell of succeeding without him, AJ Styles gets up and proceeds to beat him up for implying he is a rookie, forcing Miz to retreat.



WWE celebrates Black History Month.

WBC World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder is in the crowd tonight.

Brie Bella beats Charlotte despite the distraction attempt by Ric Flair after reversing the Figure Eight into a roll-up.



It is announced that Bret "The Hit Man" Hart has revealed that he is currently battling prostate cancer.

Titus O'Neil beats Tyler Breeze.



Triple H meets Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar in the locker room and tells Heyman to get out. Triple H is surprised that Brock Lesnar didn't demolish Dean Ambrose at the top of the show. Lesnar responds by saying "We'll see at WrestleMania, won't we?"



Dolph Ziggler beats Kevin Owens. After the match, Kevin Owens throws Michael Cole's notes at Cole and pushes JBL's hat off the table.



WWE celebrates the career of Mark Henry as part of Black History Month.



Before the next match, Sasha Banks says she's back on her own terms, and that she's tired of waiting for her turn. She is officially on her own and is no longer part of Team BAD with Naomi and Tamina. Naomi and Tamina show up and say there are no hard feelings as they knew she would strike out on her own and make her own mark. Naomi says they can be competitors and still be sisters. The three of them have one more moment of unity together.



Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch when Sasha Banks tells Naomi and Tamina she doesn't want their help in the match. Sasha pushes Naomi and tells the two of them to back off, then Naomi and Tamina attack Sasha. Becky jumps in and fights them off alongside Sasha, and the brawl ends with Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch standing tall.



Renee Young interviews Chris Jericho. He says AJ Styles is in it for the long haul, and will be watching his match on SmackDown later this week.



Goldust meets up with R-Truth in awkward fashion yet again, this time in the bathroom. Once again, Goldust's attempt to start a tag team with him doesn't go as planned.



Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) shame The Rock for his actions and foul language last week. After they make fun of tumblr and WWE fanfiction, they plan to beat Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose tonight.



Paul Heyman guests on commentary for the next match.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for January 25, 2016

Vince McMahon and Stephanie McMahon start off tonight's show. Vince claims that his family has officially broken Roman Reigns in half, and that when the McMahon family does that to someone, they stay that way. Vince then makes a confession: he enjoys watching the miseries and misfortunes of others (which we've known all along). Stephanie says she had us eating from the palm of her hands, as Triple H surprised everyone last night and that nobody can hold a candle to him. She then introduces Triple H, who shows up in the suit and tie while wearing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship around his waist. Triple H calls Roman Reigns one of the most awesome athletes he's seen, but he's not as good as him. He says that Roman is cocky and disrespectful towards Vince, and says Vince might as well be God, and that he will be damned if Roman Reigns disrespects him. He then makes it clear that he's not done yet and that his time has not yet passed, and that he wants to and will be WWE World Heavyweight Champion for as long as the locker room learns some respect. He says that Roman Reigns doesn't deserve the title. Triple H, Stephanie and Vince decide to tighten the iron fist, as everyone in a match tonight during this "action packed Raw" will be evaluated as an opponent for Triple H at Fastlane will be determined.


Flo Rida is in the audience tonight.

Kevin Owens beats Dolph Ziggler.


Jojo interviews Roman Reigns, who has just arrived. Roman isn't impressed with Vince McMahon's words at the top of the show, and he's sticking around to hear the huge announcement for later on.

The Social Outcasts (Heath Slater, Adam Rose, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel) are here, and their focus is suddenly squared on Flo Rida. Heath tells Flo Rida to sit there and not make him mad after what happened in their last encounter, but Bo Dallas challenges him to get into the ring and face the four of them. Slater then proposes a rap battle between Flo Rida...and Bo Rida. Flo Rida easily wins it...by sicking The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) on them.

The Rock tells The Miz to park his truck, chats with Wale and Rick Ross, makes Big Show regret he didn't win the Royal Rumble in 2000 and not star in movies, and then meets up with Lana and Rusev. After high-fiving Pat Patterson, he finally heads to the gorilla position and goes through the curtains to hit the ring. The Rock is ready for WrestleMania 32, as is everyone else, then chats a bit with some guys in the front row dressed as Hulk Hogan, "The Macho Man" Randy Savage and The Undertaker as well as someone with a replica WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Suddenly, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) show up and make fun of his family on the roster before talking about all the gold they have, as even Francesca II is made out of gold. They then make fun of The Rock. The Rock then makes fun of them, then tells them to get in the ring with them, but they refuse, and The Rock brings out The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso).

We are introduced to new announcer Mauro Ranallo.

John Cena shows up to start the show. After stating it's a brand new year on a brand new network with the show now on USA Network, he immediately focuses on Alberto Del Rio and calls him out. Del Rio shows up, and says he's not in the mood to give him another shot at the WWE United States Championship. However, he will fight anyone tonight, right here, right now in Laredo, Texas; however, it will not be for the United States title and Cena is not eligible. Cena says that if he's out of the picture and it's not for the title, then it should be a title shot for someone else, and introduces an opponent for him: Kalisto, who shows up. Del Rio mocks Kalisto, and the match begins.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for November 30, 2015

During the pre-show, Becky Lynch runs into Paige, and Paige tries to drive a wedge between her and Charlotte. Becky Lynch seems to be having none of it.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) start off the show as confetti flies around the arena. Big E takes a Terrible Towel and desecrates it in front of the Pittsburgh crowd by wiping his armpits with it before using it to blow his nose. They then reveal what they're celebrating: Sheamus becoming the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Sheamus shows up in a suit and tie with the title around his waist, and proceeds to make fun of the crowd before crediting Triple H and Stephanie McMahon with his recent success. He then thanks the man he claims made it all possible: Roman Reigns. Sheamus and The New Day celebrate, and make fun of Roman Reigns for falling victim to the Brogue Kick at Survivor Series. Sheamus then declares that "Sheamus 5:15 just said I just kicked your arse!" As The New Day leave and Sheamus celebrates some more in the ring, Sheamus is suddenly laid out with a Superman Punch out of nowhere by Roman Reigns, who then runs off with the WWE World Heavyweight title.



The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso), Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns - still carrying the WWE World Heavyweight Championship - are confronted by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, who want the championship back. Roman hands it back to them, but tells them that in two weeks' time, he's taking it back. Triple H then says that he has just talked with Sheamus, who has decided not to wait until TLC to defend the title and has opted instead to defend it tonight. Roman is game, and the match is one, but Stephanie McMahon says there is a caveat: if Roman does not beat Sheamus in five minutes and fifteen minutes, he doesn't win the title.



Dolph Ziggler beats Tyler Breeze.



It's time for Miz TV. Tonight's guests are Rusev and Lana, who are now back together and engaged. Rusev says nobody cared about him while he was injured, except for one person...Lana, who is now engaged to Rusev in real life. She appears for the first time since her recent injury. The Miz celebrates the happy couple, and Miz gets a glare for accidentally mentioning Summer Rae. Lana says she and Rusev patched everything up when he proposed to her, and that they never went all the way with Dolph Ziggler and Summer Rae, respectively. After they kiss again, Ryback suddenly appears. He says that the WWE Universe is tired of all this garbage, and that Ziggler actually did go all the way. Ryback then declares it's feeding time. This starts a match.



Ryback beats Rusev by count-out when he sends Rusev into the steps and accidentally smacks them into Lana's thigh. Rusev is not thrilled with this turn of events and blames it on Ryback, believing that this was not an accident.



Dean Ambrose meets with Triple H, who congratulates him on winning the triple threat to become #1 contender for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. He tells Ambrose that if Roman Reigns doesn't win the title in five minutes and fifteen seconds, not only does Roman Reigns lose his title opportunity, so does Ambrose. Triple H explains it away by saying he is doing this to drill into Roman's head that the choices he makes will also affect his friends.

The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) are in the ring. The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) have had them on the ropes as of late, and that they added insult to injury by putting them through tables. However, they didn't get the job done, according to Bubba Ray, and now they have put not just targets on their backs, but their names on four tables...literally. After D-Von says that The Wyatt Family has failed to remember the Dudley Boyz Commandments, Bubba Ray challenges the Wyatts to a match at TLC. Suddenly, the Family appears, and Bray Wyatt accepts the challenge, but tells the Dudleys that they may be in over their head. The Dudleys say that while the Wyatts may be a family, they have family, too. Suddenly, out comes Tommy Dreamer with a trash can full of weapons, and Dreamer and the Dudleys arm themselves. When the Wyatts try to get in the ring, Dreamer and the Dudleys start swinging, and the Wyatts are forced to retreat.



The Wyatt Family (Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) vs. The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) and Tommy Dreamer ends in a brawl that gets out of control. After the bell has rung, The Wyatts try to put somebody through a table, but Bubba Ray Dudley is able to get up and push Bray Wyatt off the apron, causing him to fall into a table already set up at ringside.



Zeb Colter and Alberto Del Rio make fun of not only the Pittsburgh crowd, but also Goldust. When Del Rio says that Goldust is out of date and full of hate, Goldust responds by slapping Del Rio in the face, prematurely starting their match.

He then says the title looks better on himself before continuing to make fun of Roman. Roman replies by daring Sheamus to come to the ring so he can show him what he can do to him in five minutes. Sheamus almost does it, but stops himself before he even goes down the ramp and proceeds to flaunt his superiority, saying that because he takes his time and opportunities, he's the champion.

He then says he warned us that this would happen, then asks the WWE Universe one question: "Who looks stupid now?"

Then, Roman Reigns shows up and gets straight down to business, demanding he wants his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship tonight. Stephanie says that won't happen because he Speared Triple H, and Roman immediately challenges Triple H's manhood for having her speak for him.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for November 2, 2015

During the pre-show, The Miz tries to help Cesaro by referring him to an agency that will help him from being forgotten. Not surprisingly, Cesaro then challenges him to a match, and the two men get verbally heated with each other.

Roman Reigns starts the show. He admits that Seth Rollins is good...at all the wrong things. However, Reigns thinks that Rollins' time as World Heavyweight Champion is running out, as nothing can stop him from beating Rollins. Suddenly, Rollins shows up and admits Reigns is good, too, but in the end, Reigns still lost at WrestleMania 31 and lost out on the title as Rollins took the title. Reigns then dares Rollins to come into the ring and prove he's a real man. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon show up and ask if the WWE Universe want the match to be official and for the World Heavyweight Championship.

He says a body is temporary, but the soul is forever unless it is consumed by a higher power. Bray considers himself that higher power, and he uses the souls of 'Taker and Kane to summon fire and lightning to unleash devastation. We then see an interesting video package of Kane and The Undertaker through the years, before Bray tells us to follow the buzzards.



We see a video package of The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) before the next match.

We look back at Survivor Series 2014, when Team Cena beat Team Authority to take Triple H and Stephanie McMahon out of power.



Renee Young interviews Charlotte, who says that she is just as unscrupulous as Paige and that she's not here just because she's Ric Flair's daughter. She says Paige will learn the hard way that she earned the Divas title the hard way at Survivor Series.



Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) have some wordplay with the word "survivor" before saying they will take Team Rollins to victory.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for August 31, 2015

Sting appears to begin tonight's show. He admits that Triple H pushed him to his limits at WrestleMania 31, but he did the same to Triple H, and for that he has respect for him. But that was then, and this is now, and he now has his sights set on Seth Rollins, who he says "is no Triple H" and is only a legend is own mind. He also says that Rollins isn't even half the man that Triple H is. Sting says that the WWE World Heavyweight Champion has eluded him until now, and he plans to write the last chapter in his career by taking it from Rollins, who he says is in "for one heck of a ride."



Meanwhile, Seth Rollins and Stephanie McMahon have watched Sting's promo from backstage. Rollins is incensed with what Sting just said about him, but Stephanie does agree with Sting when he said that Rollins isn't even half the man Triple H is, but says that one day, Rollins will get there. Rollins then asks about his statue, and if it's ready for Night of Champions. Stephanie tells him to go ask Sting.

Becky Lynch beats Alicia Fox with the Disarmher in a Beat The Clock Challenge to set the pace at three minutes, twenty-one seconds (3:21). The three members of Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte, Becky Lynch) are in a Beat The Clock Challenge, and the winner of the challenge gets a WWE Divas Championship match against Nikki Bella at Night of Championship.


Rich Brennan interviews Ryback. Ryback says a staph infection couldn't keep him down, and neither could The Miz. As he says that he plans to take down The Big Show tonight, we see and hear Summer Rae run away giggling, while Dolph Ziggler looks around in vain for Summer outside of the locker room with a towel around his waist.

The Miz guests on commentary for the next match.

During Big Show vs. Ryback, Show grabs the microphone and tells the WWE Universe that if they want him to retire, they'll need to find someone who can do it. Ryback tries to grab him after this, but Show's weight overpowers Ryback, who kicks out at two.

Charlotte beats Brie Bella in a Beat The Clock Challenge with one minute and forty-one seconds (1:41) left on the clock. The new time to beat is one minute and forty seconds (1:40).



Renee Young interviews The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley). They're here for two reasons: putting everyone through a table and to become 10-time WWE Tag Team Champions. They plan on putting The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) through a table instead of just knocking them off.

Kevin Owens beats Cesaro after knocking him ribs first into the commentary table.


Dolph Ziggler and Lana are backstage. Dolph tells Lana that Summer Rae was in the locker room for two seconds and that he grabbed a towel as soon as he saw her, but nothing happened. Lana, disappointed at the fact that Summer Rae saw him naked, silently walks away.



Before the next match, Bray Wyatt thanks Sister Abigail for her greatest gift: The Black Sheep, Braun Strowman. He tells Strowman this is his moment and to show what he stands for and why he exists. Wyatt says that after tonight, there will be no guessing when the end of the world will be, and that The Wyatt Family (Wyatt, Luke Harper, Strowman) will walk through undisguised. Strowman then gets the mic, and says that this isn't the beginning...this is the end.


Braun Strowman vs. Dean Ambrose ends after Roman Reigns fights Strowman in response to Strowman shoving Reigns. Not surprisngly, Strowman overpowers both men, and not even a steel chair to the back can stop him. Harper rushes in to kick Reigns, and Strowman chokes Ambrose out. Bray Wyatt then hits Sister Abigail on Reigns after thanking Sister Abigail for Strowman.



Renee Young interviews Seth Rollins, who is incensed that he can't find his bronze statue that was promised to him after SummerSlam. Later tonight, Rollins plans to call out Sting and demand that he return his statue to him. As for Sting's comments about him, he plans to remind Sting of why he's the man right now.

Paige fails to beat Sasha Banks in a Beat The Clock Challenge when Tamina and Naomi save Banks from being pinned. Charlotte is officially the new #1 contender for the WWE Divas Championship and will face Nikki Bella at Night of Champions.


Renee Young interviews Lana. During the commercial, Renee Young also interviewed Summer Rae, who claims that Ziggler invited her to the dressing room to bury the hatchet between their respective sides, and that when she did, he got naked and gave her "the look." She then said that she ran away due to her relationship with Rusev, but says she'll never forget Ziggler being naked in front of her. Lana is about to cry and just walks away.

Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) call The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) are a menace to society, culture, the Tag Team Championships...and furniture. For that last reason, they have decided to start the "Save The Tables Movement," and pull out a table from underneath the ring that is still in bubble wrap, stating that it is the last table there is, and say that The Dudley Boyz will do anything they can to break that table. They then start a "Save The Tables" chant.



The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) guest on commentary for the next match.

The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) beat The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E) in their first WWE match in a decade. Also, the table that was brought out before the match is nearly broken, but Xavier Woods saves Big E before the Dudleys can out him through it.


This Thursday on SmackDown: Miz TV with guests Dolph Ziggler and Lana!

Seth Rollins shows up. He says that he had no problem with Sting at all up until last week, and that he revered him as a legend in the ring...until Sting hijacked his statue and ruined the unveiling ceremony. Rollins proceeds to call himself a real man, and calls Sting out, demanding two things: to take back what he said about him at the top of the show, and to return his bronze statue. When he asks Sting to come out and tell him where he put his statue, Stephanie McMahon shows up instead. She knows that she asked him to call out Sting, but tells him to stop talking about Triple H and that Sting has gotten into his head. Rollins calls out Sting again, but this time he gets John Cena. He tells Rollins to remember this moment, as he is about to find out how expendable he is, and that Stephanie McMahon is the one who will make him miserable. After calling Rollins out on basically everything he's ever done since he turned his back on Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns, he tells Rollins that he's buying into their bullcrap, and if they really were their friends, he wouldn't be allowed to do what he's about to do: cash in his rematch clause for the WWE United States Championship at Night of Champions, forcing Rollins to defend two different titles in two different matches on the same night at that event. When Cena asks Stephanie is the match is on, she says yes. After Cena walks to the top of the ramp, Sting walks out and stands side by side with Cena.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for August 3, 2015

The show starts with a tribute to "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. Everyone wears a black "Hot Rod" shirt as everyone stands at the ramp as the ring bell tolls ten times. WWE then pays tribute to Piper via video package.

Seth Rollins shows up. He says that Seth Rollins is the only man who can slow him down, and says that he is too sympathetic for his own good, citing when he broke Cena's nose last week as a perfect example of that. He says he will never lose a match in the fashion that he lost against Cena last week ever again. He then makes a proposition to Cena: they go at it again with both titles on the line at SummerSlam. He then brags about this being the site of himself winning the WWE World Heavyweight Championship as well as John Cena's first ever United States Open Challenge, and decides to make an open challenge for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship...right now.

Seth Rollins tells Jojo his World Heavyweight Championship open challenge is legit, with only two caveats decided by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon: his opponent must be under 6 feet tall and under 200 pounds. So Jojo asks if his opponent is El Torito, and Rollins jokingly says yes. El Torito's music hits, but Torito does not appear. Instead, Rollins' opponent is none other than Neville.

Seth Rollins narrowly retains the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against Neville.

It's Miz TV time. The Miz calls his show the second-most must-watch show tonight in respect for "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, whom he says that without Piper's Pit, there would be no talk segments like Miz TV and others throughout the years. Miz tells Ryback to vacate the WWE Intercontinental Championship and says it should go to him if Ryback can't fight for it. He then introduces Kevin Owens, who tells Miz he's a big fan of his. As for Cesaro, Owens thinks he's jealous of him, then Cesaro shows up as if on cue. Cesaro says he's just here for a front row seat to hear what "Walk Owens Walk" has to say. Owens says Cesaro is jealous of him as he has succeeded where Cesaro has failed, and says Cesaro will never match up to him. Cesaro says he's not jealous; instead, he's ashamed and embarassed of him for being such a coward. Owens responds by saying he's done more in WWE in three months than Cesaro has in three years, and if he wants to go, let's go. Miz gets excited, and both Owens and Cesaro tell him to shut up.
