What lies in store when Monday’s hottest show rolls through the iconic O2 Arena?

Spoiler results for tonight since it was taped earlier:
SPOILER: show
Bad News Barrett vs. WWE United States Champion John Cena kicks off RAW. Cena won a great match that went just over 10 minutes. Rusev attacked Cena after the match and lays him out with a chain. Their match at Extreme Rules will now be a Russian Chain Match.

* We get replays from last week's RAW.

* Cesaro vs. Randy Orton and Dolph Ziggler vs. Seth Rollins are announced for tonight.

* Paige wins a quick Divas Battle Royal to become the new #1 contender for Nikki Bella. Paige cut a promo after the match but Naomi turned on her and laid her out. Brie Bella was on commentary and was not in the match.

* Bray Wyatt comes out for another cryptic promo in the ring. He got a big ovation.

* The Lucha Dragons got a big pop and defeated The Ascension in a quick match.

* Roman Reigns comes out to a nice pop and is interviewed in the ring by Booker T. Reigns was met with Suplex City chants and then interrupted by Big Show, who chokeslammed him on top of one of the taxis on the stage. Reigns was stretchered to the back.

* Randy Orton vs. Cesaro is next. Orton came out to a huge pop. Tyson Kidd and Natalya are at ringside. Orton wins by DQ in around 2 minutes when Kidd interferes. Kane comes out and re-starts the match.

* Orton vs. Cesaro and Kidd in a handicap match starts. If Orton loses, he's no longer #1 contender but if he wins, he gets to pick the stipulation for Extreme Rules against Rollins. Orton wins with a huge RKO out of nowhere on Kidd.

* Adam Rose vs. Dean Ambrose is next. Ambrose wins a quick match with Dirty Deeds.

* Backstage segment with Kane and Big Show. Rollins doesn't want to face Ziggler so it's now Kane vs. Rollins.

* Stardust vs. Fandango is next. Stardust won another quick match but Fandango dances to his old theme song and fans danced along with him for a huge pop, the biggest of the night so far.

* Seth Rollins vs. Kane is next. Kane delivered a chokeslam but laid down for Rollins to get the win.

* Damien Sandow defeated The Miz with a roll up.

* A Prime Time Players video package airs.

* Ryback defeats Luke Harper by disqualification. Dean Ambrose chased Harper off through the crowd.

* Dolph Ziggler defeated Neville in a must see match. Sheamus attacked and laid Ziggler out after the match.

* The main event segment is Rollins and Orton choosing their stipulations for Extreme Rules. Rollins is in the ring sitting in a La-Z-Boy recliner. Orton picks his stipulation - a cage match. Rollins picks his stipulation - the RKO is banned. Orton reacts and attacks Rollins but Mercury and Noble help him escape as RAW ends.

"Late game player"

Isn't that what they used to call Christian?

RVDmark 04-13-2015 08:20 PM
So when John Cena puts on the STF, are the other wrestler's tapping out from desperation at how badly he puts it on?

Dark One 04-13-2015 08:23 PM
I'm starting to feel like John Cena's US Title run's sole purpose is to see what midcarders can work a "main event" with the man for program(s) in the future.

All three of the matches are very much a PPV main-event type of match with finisher kickouts, false finishes, and the whole deal. Even when he had surprisingly back-and-forth matches with midcard guys before, they didn't go as all-in as they have in all three of his US Championship Open Memorial Invitational matches.

What is the difference between a Russian Chain and a Chain from somewhere else? Asking for a friend.

Russian chain is made of iron and cheap, but unbreakable. Also reeks of vodka and despair.

Regular chain match is shiny like chrome but weak like paper.

Obviously.

Seeing this is funny after he spent the like four months before feuding with Taker beating Dean Ambrose at every turn in their feud.

He's lost one feud. Against the Undertaker. At Wrestlemania.

Come on.

We're heading into garbage time rapidly here. Don't get me wrong, I love Ambrose and Stardust, but I feel like the feed got crossed up with the Superstars taping.

Haven't read spoilers, so I'm hoping Rollins wins and we get some weird ass combination of stipulations, like a TLC Punjabi Prison match.

CHW is going to steal that, aren't they?

Seth Rollins likes complicated when he's thinking of a stipulation? He must have called the TNA creative team. Time for a falls count anywhere steel cage match, where both men have to escape, and then the first one to pin the other outside wins.

Neville is sweet. I like Seth Rollins more and more each week. Even without Lesnar, Heyman should be on tv. Why does Sandown still dress like Miz, call himself mizdow, etc? Love that Orton went over clean. Lol at the Russian chain match

Banning the RKO?

EXTREME

No RKO wtf. Hope Randy pulls out the punt. Networks free this month to new subscribers because of no RKOs at Xtreme Rules. Randy will probably just RKO him for the hell of it anyway.

I don't care who it is. John Cena? DDT. Daniel Bryan? DDT. Stardust? DDT. Fandango? DDT.

Hornswoggle? DDT.

Dark One 04-14-2015 12:07 AM
Also, hey, we've got a new guy that can oversell everything and make everybody look incredible for the next five to ten years, so now we can let Ziggler be a main eventer instead of a main event enhancement talent.

Right? Guys?

the US title defended on a show in the UK. way to keep things legit #thanksvkm

Tom Guycott 04-14-2015 07:32 AM
Was busy last night. As such, I'm late to the party. Just started watching RAW. Looks like Barrett pulled off a random Cactus Jack tribute? ("Bang Bang!" then an elbow dive off the apron to the outside to Cena)

Also, is that "off the rope stunner" the "Throwback v2"?

drave 04-14-2015 07:39 AM
"Throwback v2" sounds really dumb..... so yes, that is what they will start naming it.

Tom Guycott 04-14-2015 08:39 AM
Damn. Tell 'em how you REALLY feel, Naomi!

I would say that was a potentially career altering promo... if she didn't have a uterus. This likely will end with a wholely unresolved angle, a single loss to the current champ, then disappearing from TV like so much "crazy" Alicia Fox. Sad. For all this #givedivasachance, they already started back into old habits with a clusterfuck Divas battle royal for the "everyone gets a turn" butterfly belt.

Also, Ziggler/Neville... almost as magicical as Ziggler/Kingston. Almost.

Which is why I had the radical idea of having Cameron or Eva Marie get the Divas Title. They are more hated than the Bellas. Or at the very least form a evil diva stable.at least there will be some splintering rivalries coming from it.

What's the deal with Neville.... is he being jobbed out as "punishment" for NXT being "over"?

Like bring one of their top guys up and just have him lose a bunch just to show that he "is good but not good enough to hang with the big dogs"

This would involve Eva Marie getting more screen and ring time. No thanks.

Interesting that both former Funkadactyls are presumably heel now. Could open a door to an alliance. Also, could re-enter Miz's path and take him up on his "job offer for better opportunity". But again, not holding out hope, because the company is too busy putting over Total Divas to sustain focused female wrestling angles independent of said show.

he's looked really good against top talent. i would hardly say that's punishment. he has not looked weak in his losses.

#1-norm-fan 04-15-2015 06:29 PM
Yeah, I don't think it's the worst thing to say "The top guy from our farm system still has some work to do to be a big fish on the main roster". Especially when he's actually taking being competitive against top guys.

Emperor Smeat 04-15-2015 07:51 PM
Creative likely trying to figure out what should be his first real feud but Neville should be ok even with the losing as long as the end goal benefits him.

Worst case is him becoming like Ambrose who isn't benefiting as much from his wins while also piling on the bad losses like his winless ppv record since the Shield split. Or someone like Barrett with the on/off pushes and title reigns that have done him nothing the past couple of years.
