Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW Recap for March 9, 2015!

Randy Orton shows up to Kane, Big Show, J&J Security (Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble) and Seth Rollins giving him a standing ovation. Kane officially welcomes Orton back into The Authority. Big Show sings Orton's praises, but Jamie Noble still can't trust him. Seth Rollins makes fun of Noble for his opinion, then assures to the WWE Universe that Orton is part of The Authority again before welcoming him back with open arms. The warm welcome makes Orton suspicious, and he both insults everyone else in the ring and tells Seth Rollins he will make him his bitch...then reveals he was playing around. Good times were had by all, even though Kane looked like he didn't know how to take a joke afterward.

R-Truth guest on commentary for the next two matches.

Daniel Bryan beats Bad News Barrett with the running knee. Barrett hits the Bullhammer on Bryan while he was celebrating his victory. As Barrett was exiting, Dean Ambrose comes from the ramp and lays him out.

Dean Ambrose beats Stardust with the Dirty Deeds... and looks to take the Intercontinental Championship. Bad News Barrett attacks him front behind, followed by the other competitors for the IC Title Ladder Match joining in the brawl. R-Truth, who has a small bag, puts the title belt into the bag and sits back at commentary. Barrettm who realizes that his title is gone... goes to R-Truth for the belt. Truth lies about not having the title, and gives him the bag. When Barrett opens the bag, a replica of the title is revealed, and Truth has the real title belt.

WWE recognizes the late Connor "The Crusher" Michalek as the inaugural winner of the Warrior Award.

`
Paul Heyman is in the ring. We see a video package of Roman Reigns' road to where he is now, then Heyman brings out Brock Lesnar, whom he then puts on a pedestal as only Paul Heyman can.

Bray Wyatt wants Undertaker to come and find him.

Erick Rowan & Ryback beats Kane & Big Show following a miscommunication by Big Show and Kane, when Kane is knocked out by Show. Big Show and Kane go at it after the match, when Stephanie McMahon comes out and stop the arguing, and goes off at them for arguing like "little children"; and maybe Randy Orton was right about how The Authority members have been whining as of late... and kicks them out of the ring, then tells them to pack up and leave the arena.

The Miz is envisioning himself working on a collabo album with multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated recording artist Wiz Khalifa, but Khalifa already has an A-Lister as a partner... and it's Wizdow (Damien Mizdow), who spits a rhyme on The Miz, revealing that he's in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at Wrestlemania 31.

The Celtic Warrior returns...

Wiz Khalifa performs three of his hits. Wizdow shows up afterwards.

The Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki), the featured Divas on the new DVD The Flintstone & WWE: Stone Age Smackdown, continue to taunt AJ Lee and Paige.

AJ Lee beats Summer Rae with the Black Widow.

We hear from Sting for the first time. He says WCW fell under the watchful eye of a broken authority, and that he tried to save it but failed. He knows the pain of loss, and will make Triple H feel it as well at WrestleMania 31.

Rusev and Lana run into John Cena backstage. Cena tells Rusev to be proud of Mother Russia, but to watch it when it comes to talking about America, lest he be ready to suffer the consequences. He may not have a WrestleMania match this year, but he has no problem shutting Rusev up tonight if he has to.

Randy Orton returns to SmackDown for the first time since being injured.

Rusev quickly beats Curtis Axel with The Accolade. After whispers from Lana, Rusev grabs the mic and does his routine trashing of America, saying that the country continues to live in the past; and says that he would spit on the American flag. Cena charges down to the ring and attacks Rusev and hits the STF on Rusev, and chokes Rusev out with the submission. Rusev's out! When the referees check on Rusev, cena slides back in and pour water on Rusev and places hims back into the STF, and this time, Rusev taps. Lana, who cannot stand another minute of it, begs Cena to let him go and they will give him the United States title match at Wrestlemania 31.

Bray Wyatt says that he cannot wait much longer, and he wants to be found... tonight.

Rusev and Lana argue with each other in rapid Russian, clearly over Lana giving Cena the United States title match at Wrestlemania.

The New Day (Big E. & Xavier Woods) beats Tyson Kidd & Cesaro. The Usos (Jimmy & Jey) come out with Naomi, who is in action against Natalya... next!

Naomi beats Natalya following the distraction of the melee The Usos and Kidd & Cesaro. Los Matadores (Fernando, Diego and El Torito) come out, continuing the string of matches.

Los Matadores (Fernando & Diego) beats The Usos (Jimmy & Jey) following the distraction by El Torito.

J&J Security (Jamie Noble & Joey Mercury) still agree that Randy Orton is not to be trusted, but Seth Rollins insists that all is good between him and The Authority, and that their main focus tonight should be Roman Reigns.

Bray Wyatt is in the ring. He tries to bring The Undertaker back to life with the urn. The urn smokes, and Bray Wyatt is laughing when the arena goes dark and thunder can be seen and heard. The arena goes dark, and the table and urn is replaced with Bray Wyatt's rocking chair, astonishing Bray Wyatt. A message can be seen on the TitanTron: "The Man Comes Around." The rocking chair is struck by a bolt of lightning, and bursts into flame.

Roman Reigns beats Seth Rollins & Randy Orton when Randy Orton refuses to tag into the match when Rollins refuses. Orton gets in the ring and yells and attacks Rollins and throws him outside of the ring. Orton smashes his head into the steel steps, obviously getting revenge for what Rollins did to him several months ago. Randy Orton continues to punish Rollins near the ringside area and throughout the arena, all culminating with the patented RKO through the announce table.
