Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for November 23, 2015

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon show up to start the show. They make fun of Roman Reigns, as if to say "I told you so" for turning Triple H's opportunity down like he did and Spearing him at Survivor Series. He then says that life is defined the opportunities you take and the opportunities you make, and introduces us to someone who knows when to take an opportunity: the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Sheamus, who shows up and makes light of how he decimated Roman Reigns last night, comparing it to "Brutus stabbing Caesar." He then says he warned us that this would happen, then asks the WWE Universe one question: "Who looks stupid now?" Triple H and Stephanie McMahon then put Sheamus on a pedestal, saying he doesn't look stupid and instead looks like a WWE champion. 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. The two of them then stare down, then HHH tells him he'll get his rematch when he says he'll get it, "which sure as hell won't be tonight." Suddenly, Reigns is kicked in the head from behind by...Rusev. Sheamus then Brogue Kicks Reigns. Rusev has returned, and he and Sheamus both join Triple H and Stephanie at the entrance ramp. HHH then announces that Roman's rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship will be at TLC in a TLC Match. Stephanie then puts Reigns in a match against the returning Rusev tonight.

The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper) beat The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) after the distraction by Erick Rowan. After the match, Erick Rowan and Braun Strowman join and lay waste to the Dudleys.

Sasha Banks beats Becky Lynch with the assist from Naomi and Tamina.

Paige interrupts Michael Cole after the match, saying Charlotte cheated by having one of her hands underneath the bottom rope during the Figure Eight. She calls Charlotte "a dirty player just like her daddy."

The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) show up to celebrate their one-year anniversary by making fun of Nashville, Tennessee and country music...as well as for a country music jamboree and a Tag Team Title open challenge. The challenge is answered by The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto), but The New Day try to renege only for The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) to stop them. Sin Cara and Kalisto are okay with this being a Triple Threat tag team match, but The New Day complain about their jamboree being ruined and cancel the open challenge. The Usos and The Lucha Dragons respond by decimating The New Day.

Renee Young interviews Charlotte, who is not surprised by Paige's behavior. She knows it's not over between her and Paige.

Goldust and The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) beat Stardust and The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor).

Zeb Colter and Alberto Del Rio show up for the State of Mexamerica Address. Colter says that Mexamerica is not failing and is just suffering from "growing pains." Zeb then talks about how America is in trouble, and that Mexamerica was not taken very well when everyone "became a bunch of haters." Colter and Del Rio then turn on the fans for not giving Mexamerica a chance, and declare its borders closed forever. As Zeb continues to talk, Jack Swagger shows up. He tells Zeb he used to put his hand over his heart and stand for something, and now he has turned his back on America. Zeb and Del Rio get upset, and dares them to do something about it if they don't like it. Swagger then gets in the ring with Del Rio, but Del Rio slinks away along with Zeb Colter. Swagger then leads the WWE Universe in putting their hand over their hearts and saying "We, the people."

Paige and Charlotte wrestle to a double count-out. Charlotte retains the WWE Divas Championship. After the match, Paige puts Charlotte in a PTO on the announce table.

Jack Swagger takes on Alberto Del Rio this Thursday on SmackDown!

Heath Slater is in the ring with a mic stand and a guitar, ready to sing "what real country music sounds like." Before he can sing, however, Ryback shows up. Slater smashes the guitar into Ryback's back, which does nothing but make Ryback hurt him.

Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose beat Kevin Owens and Tyler Breeze.

JBL, El Torito and Mark Henry have a weird Tex-Mex driven, JBL-Torito dream to shill a Hardee's/Carl's Jr. Tex-Mex burger. (I'm not making this up.)

Roman Reigns vs. Rusev ends after King Barrett interferes. Barrett throws a chair to Rusev, but Reigns gets the chair and smacks Barrett, Rusev and Sheamus (who was tossed out of the match by the referee) with it.
