RAW FALLOUTFollowing the assault at the hands of Drew McIntyre, all WWE doctors have been able to conclude thus far is that Fandano will be out indefinitely. One can safely assume that one of the injuries which Fandango will have suffered is a concussion following the Future Shock DDT onto the steel chair. There has been no word on what disciplinary actions will be taken against Drew McIntyre but with the General Manager position currently being up in the air, it is a good bet that both Booker T and Brad Maddox will be swift in punishing Drew McIntyre.Speaking of Drew McIntyre, he sent out a very specific message to everyone in the locker room following his assault on Fandango. Drew made it clear that what he did to Fandango will continue to happen until he receives a shot at, presumably, the Intercontinental Championship. Whether he gets the chance to do this or not remains to be seen. One thing is for sure though, everyone has been put on notice.The Shield have once again put WWE employees on notice with the message that they sent out on RAW this week. However, this time it was not the locker room they put on notice, it was the Co-General Managaer's. The Shield have made it clear that win or lose at Summerslam, their next targets are both Booker T and Brad Maddox. These men may not even be General Managers following Summerslam, will this make The Shield change their minds? Only time will tell.Mr McMahon has already put both Booker T and Brad Maddox on notice but he will be present once again on RAW next week to oversee the final show going into Summerslam. This may be the last chance for Booker T and Brad Maddox to convince Mr McMahon to keep them on as General Manager so we are sure to be in for one hell of a show going into Summerslam.Following his interview with Josh Mathews on RAW, suspicion has been rife on Chris Jericho's future here in the WWE. Chris Jericho stated that Summerslam is his chance to see 'if [he has] still got what it takes to beat the future of the WWE'. This choice of words has got many believing that if Chris Jericho loses at Summerslam then he will be retiring from wrestling. At this point everything is merely suspicion but one has to admit that this is suspicion that has believable evidence.It was revealed on RAW this week that a new "talk show" will be debuting next week on RAW. 'Sandow's Intellectual Insight' will premiere on RAW when Damien Sandow hosts WWE Champion John Cena in the lead up to his Escape Only Steel Cage Match with Mark Henry at Summerslam.During their appearance on MizTV, John Cena and Mark Henry upped the ante for their WWE Championship Match at Summerslam. Following a lot of goading on the part of Mark Henry, John Cena challenged Henry to an Escape Only Steel Cage Match at Summerslam. Of course, Mark Henry accepted this challenge and as host of Summerslam The Miz made the match official. This could come back to bite John Cena in the ass but only time will tell if Henry's talk paid off.The arena erupted this week on RAW when Undertaker made his long awaited return to the WWE when he came to the rescue of Kane and Rob Van Dam. He helped these two men in preventing an attack at the hands of The Wyatt Family. Bray Wyatt, however, appeared to have seen this coming and made a challenge to Undertaker, Kane and Rob Van Dam. Bray Wyatt challenged these three men to a Six Man Tag Team Match at Summerslam, which they accepted. In this match we will see the in ring debut of Bray Wyatt and the in ring return of Undertaker. Which one of these intimidating men will be on top following this blockbuster match at Summerslam?CM Punk, Paul Heyman and Ryback were once again in a heated confrontation this week on RAW. Once again Paul Heyman set Ryback on CM Punk but what was different this week was that Punk fought back and caused Ryback to retreat. This is the first time we have seen CM Punk fend off the beast in Ryback, is this a sign of things to come at Summerslam?WEEKLY POLL
WITH THE FINAL MATCH CARD SET FOR SUMMERSLAM, WHAT MATCH ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO? A) B) C) D) E) F) G) H)

“Then. Now. Forever.”August 12th 2013TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!RAW comes on the air with pyro exploding all over the stage. The Sacramento, California fans jump to their feet in cheers, holding up multiple signs; a lot of which are showing their support for CM Punk this Sunday. The majority of the signs, however, are directed at the return of Undertaker last week. The camera cuts to the commentary booth where Michael Cole sits with JBL on one side and Jerry ‘The ’ Lawler on the other. The three of them welcome us to the show before the camera whips round to the ring for the show getting underway.NO CHANCE!The crowd jump to their feet in cheers as the familiar music of the boss – Vincent Kennedy McMahon – hits and the man himself struts out onto the stage. Vince stands on the stage and spreads his arms out while standing with a massive grin on his face. He then continues to strut down the ramp in his famous manner. He reaches the ring and walks up the steps, entering the ring and grabbing a microphone.Vince McMahon: “Ladies and Gentlemen last week I announced that the General Manager position for Monday Night RAW would be made permanent for one man this Sunday at Summerslam. What this means is that tonight will be the last chance for both Booker T and Brad Maddox to prove to me why they should be made the permanent General Manager for RAW.”A massive “Booker T” chant emanates from the crowd.Vince McMahon: “I am going to give each of these gentleman one announcement for tonight. One announcement that could either make or break their chance at becoming the permanent General Manager of RAW. So, without further ado, please welcome current Co-General Manager’s of RAW, Brad Maddox and Booker T!”CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKA?!A massive cheer goes up from the crowd as Booker T walks out onto the stage, waving around to the crowd. Booker makes his way down the ramp as Brad Maddox walks out onto the stage to a large reception of boos from the crowd. Booker gets inside the ring and shakes hands with Mr McMahon before Brad gets in and does the same.Vince McMahon: “Gentlemen you heard what I said so now is your chance to prove to me why you should be the General Manager of RAW. Booker, you first.”Mr McMahon hands over the microphone to Booker, who grins out to the cheering crowd.Booker T: “Well playa – I mean sir – last week Fandango was injured in an attack at the hands of Drew McIntyre. Behaviour like this cannot be tolerated and that is why I have chosen to suspend Drew McIntyre indefinitely for his actions.”Booker hands the microphone back to Mr McMahon as the crowd cheer in agreement with this announcement.Vince McMahon: “Okay, if that’s your announcement then so be it. Brad, what have you got for us tonight?”Mr McMahon hands over the microphone to a very smug looking Brad Maddox.Brad McMahon: “Mr McMahon, sir, I have decided on a blockbuster Main Event that will be as good, if not better, than the Champion vs Champion match last week. Tonight’s Main Event will see WWE Champion John Cena take on the man who will face Daniel Bryan at Summerslam, Chris Jericho!”There is a big pop from the crowd at this announcement, bringing a smirk to the face of Brad as he hands the microphone over to Mr McMahon.Vince McMahon: “Wow! Now that’s what I call an announcement! You heard it folks, tonight we will see John Cena take on Chris Jericho in the Main Event and Drew McIntyre is suspended indefinitely!”Mr McMahon hands the microphone over to Lilian Garcia outside of the ring before leaving the ring as Booker and Brad stand inside glaring at each other.~We open up in the backstage area with Ryback and Paul Heyman standing in front of a crate with Josh Mathews standing by their side.Josh Mathews: “Ryback this Sunday you take on CM Punk in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. For weeks following Money In The Bank you completely dominated CM Punk in vicious attack after vicious attack. That was the case up until last week. Last week on RAW we saw CM Punk fight back and even make you retreat. Does this mean that your match this Sunday may not be as easy as you first thought?”Josh looks extremely nervous as he lifts the microphone to Ryback’s mouth. Ryback looks down at Josh and glares at him as Heyman grabs Josh’s wrist and moves it so that the microphone is positioned in front of him.Paul Heyman: “CM Punk fought back last week, just like he fought back the week before that and the week before that. CM Punk is a fighter, he has made that clear since day one but Ryback is a dominator. CM Punk can fight and claw his way back all he wants but no matter how much he fights back, Ryback will always dominate him. Last week I called Ryback off because I want CM Punk as close to 100% as he can be this Sunday so that when Ryback destroys him and makes him leave the arena on a stretcher he has no excuses.”Heyman nods at Ryback before the two men walk off away from Josh.~Christian makes his way out to the ring to big cheers from this crowd. He walks down the ramp, slapping hands with a few fans before getting in the ring. Ryback makes his way out with Paul Heyman next to massive boos from the crowd. The two men make their way down the ramp before Ryback slides in the ring.Christian .versus. Ryback w/ Paul Heyman//CLOSING MOMENTS\\Christian crouches in the corner, trying to catch his breath as Ryback climbs to his feet in the opposite corner. Ryback is soon to his feet and begins making his way over to Christian, just as Christian comes charging out of the corner for a Spear. Christian seemingly hits the move but Ryback grabs hold of Christian’s head when he connects, barely budging from the Spear. Ryback leans over and grabs hold of Christian’s leg before lifting him into the air and getting him up on his shoulders. Ryback begins marching around the ring with Christian still on his shoulders when CM Punk comes running down the ramp and hops up onto the apron. Ryback drops Christian and runs over to hit Punk with a clothesline, only for Punk to drop down to the ground. Ryback bounces off of the ropes and glares after Punk when Christian comes from behind and rolls up Ryback for the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Christian is quick in leaving the ring as the bell rings so as to avoid the wrath of Ryback. Christian backs up the ramp with his arm in the air as Heyman gets in the ring to calm down Ryback. Punk stands outside of the ring, grinning in at Ryback as the scene fades.John Cena sits on a steel chair in the locker room, wrapping tape around his wrists. Cena abruptly stands up and looks over towards the door as Chris Jericho walks in wearing his ring gear. Jericho walks over to Cena and the two men look at each other for a moment before Jericho speaks.Chris Jericho: “Listen John, you and I have had our differences in the past and we have both defeated each other multiple times. This Sunday you defend your WWE Championship against Mark Henry while I take on Daniel Bryan, a man who could cash in on you at any moment. Tonight I am going to beat you John and maybe Daniel Bryan will decide to cash in tonight after our match. You know what, I hope he does because then at Summerslam I am going to beat Daniel Bryan and it will be for the WWE Championship. See you out there John.”Jericho laughs as he slaps Cena over the shoulder and leaves the locker room.~Naomi makes her way out to the ring when we come back, sporting new ring gear now that there is no more “Funkadactyls”. She makes her way down the ramp with a massive grin on her face, slapping hands with the crowd before she jumps in the ring. AJ Lee is out next with her Divas Championship wrapped around her waist. AJ skips down the ramp to boos from the crowd before jumping in and handing over her Championship.Naomi .versus. AJ//CLOSING MOMENTS\\Naomi stands in the opposite corner from the dazed AJ, pointing out to the crowd and feeding off of their energy. Naomi then turns and charges across the ring, doing a cartwheel as she gets closer to AJ then transitioning that into a handstand backflip, hitting AJ with an elbow to the jaw when she bounces back up. Naomi gains a pop from the crowd at this sequence of moves before she grabs the head of AJ and holds onto it as she charges across the ring. Naomi goes for the bulldog but AJ gets free and causes Naomi to hit the mat on her own. The impact appears to have hurt Naomi as she is slow in her attempt to rise. Naomi gets up to one knee and is about to climb the rest of the way up when AJ comes out of nowhere with the Shining Wizard for the 1..2..3!DING! DING DING!AJ gets back to her feet with a wide grin on her face as Lilian Garcia announces her as the winner. AJ snatches her Divas Championship from the referee and raises it in the air with both hands as Naomi sits up in the corner looking disappointed at her loss – while Michael Cole notes that Naomi proved tonight that she is much more than just a dancer.~We open up backstage as Randy Orton slowly walks down the corridor as we can hear massive boos coming from the crowd in the arena. Josh Mathews comes running up to Orton, causing him to stop in his path and look off in the distance with a bored look on his face.Josh Mathews: “Randy, I’m glad I finally found you. All week every member of the WWE Universe has had one question on their minds; why did you attack Dolph Ziggler last week after saving him from an assault at the hands of Alberto Del Rio?”Randy looks down at Josh and stares at him for a moment before beginning to laugh.Randy Orton: “Josh, whether the crowd like Dolph Ziggler or not I did what I did last week because it gives me an advantage going into my match on Sunday. I didn’t save Dolph Ziggler from an assault from Alberto Del Rio, I saw both of my Summerslam opponents in the same place at the same time and I struck. If the same thing happened this week then I would sure as hell do the exact same thing.”Orton smirks at Josh before barging passed him and continuing down the corridor.~Vince McMahon and The Miz stand backstage in the midst of a conversation concerning Summerslam. Vince tells Miz that he better be prepared for the best MizTV ever at Summerslam, to which Miz replies telling Vince that he is always prepared for the best.~Rob Van Dam and Kane make their way out to massive cheers from the crowd as we come back live. The two men walk down the ramp and get in the ring before Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro walk out to massive boos. The two men make their way down the ramp before getting in the ring and standing opposite their opponents.
Rob Van Dam & Kane .versus. Colter’s Militia
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
RVD runs off of the ropes before coming back and nailing the Rolling Thunder on Swagger to a massive pop from the crowd. RVD hooks the leg of Swagger but only gets a two count before Cesaro breaks it up. Cesaro begins to kick away at RVD and doesn’t stop until Kane gets in the ring. Kane charges over and nails Cesaro with a big boot to the face that sends him to the outside. Kane then turns as Swagger goes to hit him with a right hand. Kane manages to block it before grabbing him by the throat and lifting him into the air before nailing the Chokeslam. Kane then drops to the mat and rolls to the outside as RVD hops up onto the top rope. RVD looks down at Swagger before diving down and nailing the Five Star Frog Splash for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
RVD gets back to his feet and raises his arms in the air to cheers from the crowd. Kane gets back in the ring and the two men begin to celebrate when the lights in the arena go out.
WE’RE HERE!
A massive cheer goes up from the crowd as Bray Wyatt walks out onto the stage with a lantern in his hand, with Erick Rowan and Luke Harper behind him. The three men slowly make their way down the ramp before stopping at the bottom. Wyatt blows out the lantern and leaves the arena in complete darkness. When the lights come back on all three members of The Wyatt Family are in the ring and they all pounce on Kane and RVD. The three men begin to beat down on two of their Summerslam opponents, hitting them with blow after blow. They get Kane and RVD grounded but before they can do anything else the lights in the arena go out for a second time. A massive cheer goes up from the crowd as they know what is coming next. The lights come back on and Undertaker is standing near the centre of the ring. Harper goes after Undertaker first and is met with a big boot to the face for his troubles. Harper hits the mat before Rowan goes after Undertaker, only to run into a big right hand to the jaw. Both men roll out of harm’s way and Undertaker stares across at Wyatt with a crazed look in his eyes. Wyatt grins back at Undertaker and begins to laugh maniacally as the dead man looks set to go for Wyatt. Kane and RVD both get back to their feet and stand by the side of Undertaker but Wyatt still doesn’t appear to care. Wyatt doesn’t leave the ring until both Harper and Rowan grab him by the arms and drag him out of the ring. Wyatt gets free of Harper and Rowan’s grasp on the outside and runs over his seat and sits down, rocking back and forth. Wyatt continues to laugh at the three men in the ring while Harper and Rowan stand behind his chair.

HALLELUJAH!
RAW comes back on the air with Damien Sandow standing in the centre of the ring wearing a sharp suit and with a massive grin on his face. The camera zooms out to show the luxurious setting in the ring, with the mat, turnbuckles and ropes all now being white. There is a black leather couch to Damien’s right and a one person leather chair to his left. Situated in the corner of the ring to the front left of the chair is a plasma screen on a metal stand. Sandow motions for the music to stop before raising his hand in the air to silence the crowd; with it having the opposite effect.
Damien Sandow: “Good evening inferior beings and welcome to the inaugural Sandow’s Intellectual Insight. Tonight will not end how MizTV ended last week as this is a platform to discover what is going through the minds of WWE Superstars – not to give Neanderthals a chance to fight. With that being said, please allow me to welcome my guest for this evening, the WWE Champion, John Cena!”
YOU CAN’T SEE ME, MY TIME IS NOW!
A massive ovation of both cheers and boos goes up from the crowd as John Cena runs out onto the stage with his WWE Championship wrapped around his waist. Cena stands on the stage and looks into the camera before commenting on how Sandow picked a great first guest. Cena turns and salutes the crowd before running down the ramp and jumping in the ring. Cena gets to his feet and walks over to Sandow, who has his arm outstretched for the WWE Champion. Cena accepts Sandow’s hand in a shake before Sandow hands him a microphone. Sandow motions for Cena to take a seat on the couch, which he does, before Sandow himself takes a seat on the leather chair.
Damien Sandow: “Thank you for joining me this evening John. Before we begin I would just like to remind everyone of what transpired in your match with Mark Henry at Money In The Bank.”
Sandow motions towards the screen in the corner as a replay of John Cena versus Mark Henry for the WWE Championship from Money In The Bank begins playing. The video ends with Cena rolling up Henry to retain the Championship. When the video ends a massive “you got lucky” chant breaks out from the crowd.
Damien Sandow: “John as you can hear from many of these people here this evening, they too echo the words of Mark Henry from last week where he claimed that you were lucky in your victory over him. Despite such a large number of people claiming this you continue to deny such claims. John I would be remiss in my duties if I did not ask; do you truly believe, with all certainty, that you can get a defiant victory over Mark Henry at Summerslam?”
Cena takes off his cap and runs his hand over his head before looking up at Sandow.
John Cena: “I will beat Mark Henry at Summerslam and I can guarantee that it will not be by roll up.”
Damien Sandow: “We shan’t dwell on that matter long, I am sure the discussion has been had long enough. Another pressing matter which must be of concern to you is Daniel Bryan.”
The moment Sandow utters Bryan’s name, a massive “YES” chant goes up from the crowd.
Damien Sandow: “Daniel Bryan has stated that he will inform the world of when he will cash in his Money In The Bank briefcase this Sunday at Summerslam. John, are you worried that this may indicate that Daniel Bryan will cash in his briefcase following your match with Mark Henry this Sunday?”
John Cena: “No Damien, I am not the least bit worried that Daniel Bryan will cash in at Summerslam. Curious, yes but I am far from worried. The last time Daniel Bryan cashed in his Money In The Bank briefcase to win the World Heavyweight Championship, he was only successful due to the fact that Mark Henry incapacitated Big Show beforehand. Mark Henry will never have the chance to incapacitate me so when the day comes that Daniel Bryan attempts to cash in the Money In The Bank briefcase on me, he will lose.”
Cena stares confidently at Sandow as the crowd begin to boo him for his statement.
Damien Sandow: “A very bold statement John. What makes you so confident that Daniel Bryan couldn’t defeat you, even if it was following you being in a brutal match?”
John Cena: “Damien, take one look at me and then one look at Daniel Bryan. Daniel Bryan is nothing but a tooth pick to me and if the day comes when I have to defend my WWE Championship against him I am going to prove to everyone why there was once a weight limit on guys who can challenge for World Championships.”
There are massive boos coming from the crowd now as Cena places his cap back on his head.
Damien Sandow: “On that note I believe we shall move on to the next subject. Do you want your match with Mark Henry at Summerslam to be the last between the two of you?”
John Cena: “Yes. Mark has had too many chances at the WWE Championship and following his loss to me at Summerslam he won’t be getting another chance. I am moving on to other challenges as of Night Of Champions. Mark Henry will be a thing of the past.”
Damien Sandow: “Well John thank you for such an intellectually insightful interview. Good luck this Sunday in your match.”
Sandow gets to his feet and extends his hand to Cena. Cena climbs to his feet and accepts the handshake before Sandow motions for him to leave. Cena does so as Sandow turns and looks into the camera.
Damien Sandow: “Pease join us again next week when I will be hosting Mr Money In The Bank – and possibly WWE Champion – Daniel Bryan. Until then – you’re welcome.”
Sandow grins into the camera as the scene fades.

RAW comes back on the air with Cody Rhodes making his way out with his Money In The Bank briefcase in his hand. Rhodes makes his way down the ramp and hops in the ring before the familiar music of The Shield hits. All three members of The Shield walk out to the top of a flight of stairs in the crowd with their respective Championships over their shoulders. Ambrose bumps fists with his companions before making his way down the flight of stairs himself. Ambrose hops the barricade and rolls in the ring before handing over his Championship.
Cody Rhodes .versus. Dean Ambrose
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Ambrose grabs Rhodes by the head and looks set to go for the Headlock Driver but Rhodes manages to get free and pushes Ambrose away. Ambrose goes straight back after Rhodes but Rhodes once again avoids the attack and follows up with a hard right hand across the jaw of Ambrose. Ambrose falls back into the ropes and Rhodes grabs his arm before whipping him across the ring. Rhodes runs after Ambrose but it is Ambrose who goes for the clothesline on Rhodes, only for Rhodes to avoid it once again. This time, Rhodes springboards off of the ropes and comes back for a Disaster Kick but Ambrose ducks underneath before rolling up Rhodes for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
Ambrose gets back to his feet with a smirk on his face as the referee raises his arm in the air. Rhodes rolls outside of the ring and kicks the barricade in frustration before picking up his briefcase. Rhodes heads backstage as Ambrose grabs his United States Championship and raises it in the air with his right hand.

CM Punk stands in his locker room with his hands clasped together while he repeatedly twists his wrists around. Punk stops as Josh Mathews walks in with a microphone in his hand.
Josh Mathews: “CM Punk, earlier this evening Paul Heyman stated that the only reason you appeared to be the man on top last week was because he called off Ryback. What do you have to say in response to these claims?”
CM Punk: “Josh there is a reason that Paul Heyman said this and that reason is simple; he can’t let Ryback look weak in the lead up to our match at Summerslam. Paul Heyman called off Ryback because he knew I was ready to take control over him. In Ryback’s match tonight all it took was me to walk down to the ring for him to get distracted enough to lose to Christian. How do you think he will cope with Paul Heyman screaming in his ear throughout our match on Sunday? He won’t Josh and I will use that to my advantage so that I can leave LA with a win under my belt.”
Punk gives Josh a grin before leaving the locker room.
~
We open up in a corridor backstage with Paul Heyman standing by the side of Curtis Axel, who is wearing his Intercontinental Championship over his shoulder.
Curtis Axel: “Paul, as Intercontinental Champion and one of your clients I expected certain perks of the job. One of these perks was a spot on the Summerslam card. You haven’t even paid me any attention the last month Paul because you’ve been too busy concentrating on Ryback. If you can’t handle having more than one active client at once then say the word and I am out.”
Paul Heyman: “Curtis, I know you are frustrated with not being able to compete at Summerslam and I am the exact same. Don’t worry though Curtis because I have a promise that I am going to make you right now. Next month you will compete at Night Of Champions when you defend your Intercontinental Championship. However, this time next year I swear to you on the lives of my children that you will be preparing for the match of a lifetime at Wrestlemania.”
Curtis Axel: “I better Paul because if I think that we are going in the wrong direction then I’m out.”
The scene fades with Axel and Heyman both looking slightly pissed off.
~
Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez make their way out onto the stage to massive boos from the crowd. Del Rio shows off his World Heavyweight Championship around his waist as the two men make their way down the ramp before Del Rio hops in the ring. CM Punk is out next to a huge ovation from the crowd. He is quick in making his way down the ramp before getting in the ring and warming up.
Alberto Del Rio w/ Ricardo Rodriguez .versus. CM Punk
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Del Rio and Punk trade kicks to the side and legs, with the crowd cheering for every kick from Punk and booing for every kick from Del Rio. Punk takes control and unloads on Del Rio with kicks from both legs and finishes off his attack with a hard kick to the head. Del Rio begins falling and Punk snatches him up onto his shoulders, ready for the GTS. Punk throws Del Rio up for the move but Del Rio uses this to flip over Punk’s back into a sunset flip for the 1..2..REVERSAL! Punk turns it around and pushes himself up so that Del Rio’s shoulders are down on the mat for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
There is a massive pop from the crowd the moment the referee counts the three. Punk gets to his feet and raises his arms in the air as the crowd continue to cheer for him.
MEAT ON THE TABLE!
The crowd go crazy with boos as Ryback storms out onto the stage. Punk looks up the ramp, ready for a fight, but Del Rio comes from behind and kicks Punk hard in the back of the head. Punk falls down to one knee and Del Rio quickly ducks out of the ring as Ryback gets in. Ryback wastes no time and pulls Punk up onto his shoulders before marching around the ring and nailing the Shell Shocked. Ryback gets back to his feet as Paul Heyman comes rushing down the ramp and getting in the ring. Heyman runs over to Ryback and tells him to calm down as Punk writhes in pain on the mat. Heyman manages to convince Ryback to leave the ring and the two back up the ramp as Punk lies on the mat, seething after them.
~
Daniel Bryan is standing backstage with Christian and the two seem to be laughing about something. Christian stops laughing abruptly and backs off as Mark Henry walks into shot and stops behind Bryan. Bryan turns and Henry looks him up and down before laughing at him and walking off. Bryan stares after Henry and narrows his eyes as the scene fades.
~
Chris Jericho walks out onto the stage to massive cheers from the crowd. He looks around at them all with a massive grin on his face as he slowly makes his way down the ramp. He gets in the ring before John Cena makes his way out to massive boos from the crowd. A little highlight package of Cena on Sandow’s Intellectual Insight earlier this evening is played on the titantron as Cena walks down the ramp. When the video ends, Cena is standing in the ring ready to compete.
Chris Jericho .versus. John Cena
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Cena takes down Jericho with a big shoulder block to massive jeers from the crowd. Cena stands over Jericho’s head and raises his arm in the air before doing his “you can’t see me” taunt to Jericho and running off the ropes – presumably coming back for the Five Knuckle Shuffle – but Jericho springs up and nails the Codebreaker out of nowhere. A massive pop goes up from the crowd as both men are down in the middle of the ring. After a minute or so of neither man moving, they both slowly begin rising to their feet.
SOMEBODY’S GONNA GET THEIR ASS KICKED!
A massive amount of cheers go up from the crowd as Mark Henry slowly walks out onto the stage. Henry slowly stalks down the stage as both of the men in the ring get to their feet. Henry slides in the ring and gets to his feet before taking down both men with a double clothesline.
DING! DING! DING!
The referee calls for the bell the moment Henry takes down both men and quickly leaves the ring afterwards. Henry grabs Jericho by the head and lifts him to his feet before tossing him to the outside. Henry then turns as Cena begins rising to his feet, stalking the WWE Champion.
FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES!
Daniel Bryan runs out onto the stage to massive “YES” chants from the crowd. Bryan charges down the ramp and jumps up onto the apron as Henry turns his attention to him. Bryan jumps up onto the top rope and springboards over, taking down the much larger man with a dropkick to the head. Henry rolls out of the ring after the impact and Bryan gets back to his feet as Cena leans in the corner. Cena walks over to Bryan with his hand extended but the moment Cena gets close, Bryan takes him down with a massive kick to the side of the head. Bryan screams down at Cena that he will regret what he said earlier before turning and screaming “YES” along with the crowd. Bryan repeatedly thrusts his arms in the air as the camera shows the three bodies in and around the ring, while RAW goes off the air.

Then. Now. Forever.Summerslam comes on the air with ‘Reach For The Stars’ blaring through the speakers. Pyro begins to explode on the stage, getting the crowd on their feet. Spotlights flash through the crowd and the camera pans through them, showing the variety of signs; most of which are for the likes of Undertaker and Daniel Bryan. The camera moves over to the commentary booth where we have Michael Cole, JBL and Jerry ‘The ’ Lawler. The three men welcome us to the show and quickly run through the card before the camera spins around to the ring.Justin Roberts: “The following match is set for one fall!”BREAK DOWN THE WALLS!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and weighing 231lb, Chris Jericho!”Pyro explodes on the stage before all of the lights dim as Chris Jericho’s music hits. Jericho walks out onto the stage with a massive grin on his face as the crowd give him massive cheers. Jericho stops at the top of the ramp and shouts out to the crowd before strutting down the ramp. Jericho reaches the ringside area and slaps hands with a few fans before running up the steps and getting up on the apron. Jericho holds onto the top rope with one hand while pointing out to the crowd with his other. Jericho then steps into the ring and hypes up the crowd as he awaits his opponent.FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES!Justin Roberts: “Introducing his opponent from Aberdeen, Washington and weighing 210lb, he is the holder of the WWE Championship Money In The Bank briefcase, Daniel Bryan!”The fans erupt into a flurry of “YES” chants as Daniel Bryan walks out onto the stage with his Money In The Bank briefcase in his hand. Bryan stops on the stage and looks out to the crowd before thrusting his arms into the air and screaming “YES” along with the crowd. Bryan proceeds to sidestep down the ramp, repeatedly doing this over and over again in the process. Bryan stops this when he reaches the ring, instead sliding inside. Bryan gets up and places his briefcase in the corner opposite Jericho.Chris Jericho .versus. Daniel BryanThe two men walk over to the centre of the ring and lock eyes for a couple of seconds before shaking hands. After this they quickly transition into a traditional lock up, which Jericho is able to win. Jericho gets Bryan into a headlock but Bryan uses this to his advantage, easily slipping out of Jericho’s grip before shoving him away from him. Jericho turns and stares at Bryan as the two men begin to circle each other. The two go to lock up again but this time Jericho sidesteps Byran before running off the ropes and coming back with an elbow to the jaw that sends Bryan to the mat. Jericho then proceeds to run off the ropes once again but Bryan stays down on the mat, causing Jericho to have to hop over Bryan. Bryan then gets back to his feet and waits to tackle the oncoming Jericho, only for Jericho to leapfrog over Bryan. Jericho then runs off the ropes and comes back with a one handed bulldog to Bryan to a pop from the crowd.

Jericho slumps down onto his back and Bryan drops down for the cover but Jericho gets his shoulder up at the count of two. Bryan gets to his feet, looking even more annoyed now.

Both men are quick back to their feet and Jericho is the first to make a move, grabbing Bryan’s legs and tripping him over onto his back. Jericho stands with Bryan’s legs in his hands and the crowd begin to cheer him on as he turns Bryan onto his back and locks in the Walls Of Jericho. Jericho gets the hold locked in tight and the pain instantly shows on Bryan’s face as he flails his arms out to try and reach the ropes. Bryan is too far away and it is clear he is not going to be able to move with Jericho’s weight on top of him so Bryan instead opts to twist his body to the side and throw Jericho off of him. Jericho is quick in getting back to his feet, much quicker than the weakened Bryan. Bryan eventually gets back up and turns as Jericho jumps up for the Codebreaker. Bryan manages to get his hands up and catches Jericho as he jumps up before running over to the corner and throwing Jericho down hard against the top turnbuckle.

I’ve got to be honest, that match just now was much better than our match back in NXT! Anyway, I didn’t get a microphone to stand here and talk about my match. I promised all of you an announcement tonight regarding me cashing in my Money In The Bank briefcase and that is exactly what I am going to give you.”The crowd begin to chant “YES” but quieten down as Bryan signals for them to do so.Daniel Bryan: “In 2011 when I won the Smackdown Money In The Bank briefcase I stated straight away that I would not cash in that briefcase until Wrestlemania XXVIII but I let my greed for gold cloud my judgement and I didn’t stick to my word. I cashed in at TLC and I walked out as World Heavyweight Champion so I’m not going to apologise for going back on my word because, come on, I won a World Championship.”The fans give Bryan a cheer as he chuckles a little.Daniel Bryan: “This time, I’m going to say the same. Right now I am giving all of you in the WWE Universe my word when I say I will not cash in my WWE Championship Money In The Bank briefcase until Wrestlemania XXX.”There is a massive pop from the crowd followed by a flurry of “YES” chants.Daniel Bryan: “Let me make one thing clear though; this isn’t me making a match for Wrestlemania. This isn’t Rob Van Dam at One Night Stand 2006. This isn’t John Cena on the 1000th episode of RAW. This is Daniel Bryan at the 30th anniversary of Wrestlemania. I’m not telling whoever the WWE Champion is going into Wrestlemania that they are fighting me because they might not. At Wrestlemania the WWE Champion will defend his Championship against whoever the challenger might be and when all is said and done in that match I am going to walk out there, hand over my briefcase to the referee, pin whoever the WWE Champion is and end Wrestlemania with me standing tall with the WWE Championship in my hands.”Bryan has a massive grin on his face as the crowd continue to go crazy with “YES” chants.Daniel Bryan: “I was actually doing some maths backstage before I came out for my match and I realised that John Cena won the WWE Championship on April 7th at Wrestlemania XXIX. Wrestlemania XXX is on April 6th 2014 so I am going on record right now and saying that I want John Cena to still be WWE Champion come Wrestlemania so I can end his title reign right before he reaches one year! YES! YES! YES!”Bryan drops the microphone and begins to repeatedly thrust his arms in the air while screaming “YES” along with the crowd. Bryan turns around as Jericho walks over to him with his arm extended. Bryan nods his head at Jericho and accepts his hand, shaking it as the crowd cheer for both men in the ring. Bryan goes to walk away from Jericho but Jericho doesn’t release his grip on Bryan’s hand, preventing him from walking away.

The Shield © ~ Winner Takes All Match for the United States Championship and the WWE Tag Team ChampionshipsThe two teams decide in themselves who is going to start this one off and it appears as though we will be starting off with Kofi and Rollins. The two men lock up in the centre of the ring and, after a few moments, Kofi is able to overpower Rollins and transition him into a headlock. Kofi flips Rollins over onto his back on the mat and continues to apply pressure to the head of Rollins. Rollins eventually manages to clamber free of Kofi and gets to his feet before hastily making the tag to Reigns. The moment Reigns steps into the ring the momentum completely changes and Kofi retreats against the ropes as the bigger man stands in the corner of the ring, waiting for him to come at him. Kofi eventually decides to go on the offensive and charges across at Reigns. Kofi jumps up to go for a leaping clothesline but Reigns catches Kofi out of the air before slamming him back down to the mat. Reigns roars out as he flexes his muscles, showing off to the crowd.

Both Bourne and Christian stretch over the top rope with their hands extended for Kofi to tag one of them in. Ambrose comes from behind and grabs the leg of Kofi, trying to drag him away. Kofi turns over onto his back and kicks Ambrose repeatedly with his free leg and the moment he is free he springs over to his corner and gets the tag to Bourne. Bourne jumps up onto the top rope and waits for Ambrose to look over at him before springboarding across the ring and taking down Ambrose by catching him with both knees to the face. Ambrose hits the mat and Bourne charges over to The Shield’s corner, taking down both men on the apron with a double dropkick to their knees. Bourne gets back to his feet and watches Ambrose as he rises to his feet before running over and catching him with a knee square on the jaw of Ambrose. Ambrose falls into the corner and Bourne holds him in place by holding his foot against the throat of Ambrose while he tags in Christian. Christian gets in the ring and begins to stomp away at Ambrose while Bourne continues to hold him against the turnbuckles. The referee begins the five count for Bourne to leave the ring but before he has even reached two Rollins and Reigns come from out of nowhere and hit both Christian and Bourne with clubbing blows to the back of the head. Rollins and Reigns ground the two men before kicking Bourne out of the ring. Rollins drags Christian over to the centre of the ring while Reigns helps Ambrose across the ring to their corner. Reigns then steps out onto the apron before tagging himself in and getting back in the ring.

Randy if you win tonight then it will be the first time in two years that you have held the World Championship. What will it mean to you to finally hold gold once again?”Randy Orton: “Josh if someone tells you that winning the World Championship doesn’t mean much to them then they are lying. The last two years have been hell for me because I haven’t been at the top of the food chain. Tonight that all changes. I don’t care if I have to go through Alberto Del Rio or Dolph Ziggler because either way I will leave here tonight with the World Heavyweight Championship around my waist. Anyone who is unhappy with that... well I just don’t give a shit.”There are massive boos from the crowd stemming from the harsh words of Orton.Randy Orton: “Now get out of my locker room; I have a match to prepare for.”Orton glares at Josh for a moment as Josh retreats out of the locker room, looking frightened at the attitude of Orton.~Justin Roberts: “The following Fatal Four Way Match set for one fall is for the WWE Divas Championship!”NEW FOUNDATION!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Natalya!”Natalya receives a small amount of cheers from the crowd as she walks out onto the stage with a massive grin on her face.

The three divas unload all of their frustration on AJ and begin to kick away at her. Layla is the first to step away from AJ, standing against the ropes as Natalya and Tamina continue to assault the Divas Champion. Natalya is next to cease the attack and walks over to the opposite side of the ring from Layla, the two of them now watching Tamina as she drops down to her knees and begins to hit AJ over and over again with forearm shots. Tamina eventually stops her attack on AJ when she realises the damage is done. Tamina climbs back to her feet before turning into a double clothesline from Natalya and Layla. Tamina hits the mat and rolls to the outside as both Natalya and Layla turn and look at one another. The two divas shake hands before locking up, with Natalya easily taking control.

Both divas get back to their feet, at the same time as Layla. Natalya positions herself so that AJ is stuck in the middle between herself and Layla. AJ slowly begins to move away from the two divas but is blocked as Tamina rolls back inside the ring in the path of where AJ was heading. The three divas begin to close on in AJ until she is finally able to run free of danger and slides out of the ring. The three divas stare after AJ for a moment before Tamina sees her opportunity and grabs both Layla and Natalya by the hair and smashing their heads together. Both divas fall to the mat, clutching at their heads, as Tamina locks eyes with AJ. However, Tamina doesn’t go after the Divas Champion and instead turns her attention to the weaker of the two divas on the mat, Layla. Tamina pulls Layla to her feet and gets her to her feet before pulling her up onto her shoulders. Tamina nails the Samoan Drop before getting back to her feet as Natalya begins to rise.

As Tamina is in mid-air, AJ throws herself off of the other two divas and moves out of the way as Tamina nails the move on Natalya and Layla. Tamina moves up to her knees, presumably with the attention of getting to her feet, before AJ comes from out of nowhere and takes out Tamina with the Shining Wizard.

She gets to her feet on the ring apron as Tamina runs over to hit her across the head. Kharma catches her arm before grabbing her by the head with her other hand and using just one hand to lift her off of her feet and throw her to the outside. Kharma then steps into the ring as Layla and Natalya climb back to their feet. Both divas rush at Kharma but she nonchalantly takes out both with a double clothesline. With all three of the challengers taken care of, Kharma locks eyes on AJ standing against the ropes with her Divas Championship in hand. AJ turns to scurry out of the ring but Kharma runs over and grabs her by the hair before pulling her back across to the centre of the ring. AJ drops her Divas Championship as Kharma hits her hard in the midsection. AJ doubles over and Kharma gets her head between her legs and hooks her arms before lifting her into the air and slamming her back down with a big Implant Buster. Kharma kneels at the head of AJ’s motionless body with an emotionless look on her face. After a few moments of silence from Kharma, with the only sound being the crowd chanting her name, she suddenly begins to laugh maniacally. As sudden as this laugh started, it stops. Kharma then gets to her feet and walks over to where the Divas Championship is laying on the mat. Kharma looks down at it for a few moments before stepping out onto the apron and dropping down to the ground. Kharma kneels down on the ground and searches under the ring for a few moments, trying to find something. Eventually she comes back out from underneath it and gets to her feet, holding some form of metal snips in her hand. Kharma slides back in the ring and gets to her feet with the snips in her hand. Kharma stands over the Divas Championship and leans over before picking it up in her free hand. Kharma stands over AJ’s body with these two items in her hands. After a few moments of standing still, Kharma lifts the Divas Championship in the air to massive cheers from the crowd. She then lifts up the snips and begins to cut through the middle of the belt. The moment the belt is in two it falls to the mat with a thud to even louder cheers from the crowd.

Sandow spots Rhodes’ attempted escape and runs over to him, grabbing his ankle and dragging him over to the centre of the ring.

However, Rhodes senses the danger coming and charges into the corner, squashing Sandow against the turnbuckles.

Punk slowly walks up the steps before climbing to the second rope, placing one foot on the top rope, and screaming out to the crowd. Punk then jumps down into the ring and warms up in the corner while Heyman whispers something in Ryback’s ear.Ryback w/ Paul Heyman .versus. CM Punk ~ Falls Count AnywhereAs soon as the referee rings the bell Punk charges over at Ryback and Heyman, catching Heyman with a kick to the face and Ryback with an elbow. The elbow barely catches Ryback due to Punk’s primary target being Heyman so Ryback is quick to reply to Punk with a massive right hand. Punk falls down to the mat, holding at his jaw, and Ryback gives him no time to breathe as he straddles his fallen opponent and begins to unload with right hand after right hand. Heyman leaves the ring with an extremely angry look on his face and storms over to the ring keeper’s area before picking up two folded up steel chairs. Heyman marches back over to the ring and throws the two chairs in the ring before rolling back in after them. Ryback stops his attack on Punk and gets to his feet as Heyman passes him one of the chairs. Ryback turns to Punk and brings the chair crashing down over his side, causing Punk to scramble away in pain. Ryback steps down hard on Punk’s ankle and holds him in place as Heyman picks up the second chair and walks over to stand above Punk. Heyman has a crazed look in his eyes as he lifts the chair high in the air before bringing it down over the back of Punk with a massive smash. The crowd are heavily booing both Ryback and Heyman as Punk squirms in pain on the mat. Ryback goes to make the cover but Heyman tells him no and says to Ryback that he hasn’t suffered enough yet. Heyman tells Ryback to get Punk up and as he does this Heyman leaves the ring. Heyman walks over to the announce table and takes off the cover before tossing it aside. Heyman then lifts the three monitors built into the announce table and tosses them aside before instructing Ryback to bring Punk out. Ryback does as Heyman says and hoists Punk over his shoulder before tossing him over the top rope and down to the ground with a thud. Ryback then proceeds to leave the ring himself and joins Heyman outside of the ring with Punk trying to pull himself to his feet using the ring apron. Heyman nods at Ryback and Ryback instantly picks up Punk and gets him up on his shoulders. Ryback walks over to the announce table and looks ready to go for Shell Shocked but Punk hits Ryback with elbow after elbow to the jaw until he gets free from Ryback and drops down behind him, standing on the announce table. Punk grabs Ryback from behind and hooks his arm to lock in the Anaconda Vice from behind to massive cheers from the crowd. Punk uses the pressure of this hold to half drag, half make Ryback push himself up onto the announce table. As soon as Punk has Ryback up on the announce table he releases his grip on Ryback before hopping off of the table. Heyman runs off round the corner of the ring and Punk reaches inside the ring, grabbing a chair and pulling it out of the ring and into his hands. Punk turns as Ryback begins to sit up on the table and instantly nails him over the head with a massive chair shot to a big pop from the crowd. Punk throws the chair aside as Ryback slumps down on the announce table. The camera focuses in on Heyman at the other side of the ring, who is currently looking extremely worried. Punk looks around at the cheering crowd with a steely determination in his eyes before hopping up onto the apron and climbing to the top rope. Punk stands up tall and points to the Heavens before diving down and nailing the elbow drop to Ryback, sending both men through the announce table. A massive pop goes up from the crowd for this, followed by a chant of “HOLY SHIT” as both men are checked on by the ringside doctors and referee. Heyman runs over and checks on Ryback and begins trying to pull him to his feet but the dead weight of Ryback is too heavy for Heyman. After minutes of getting checked on, Punk finally crawls over and puts an arm over the chest of Ryback for the 1..2..BROKE UP! Heyman sees that Ryback is in trouble and runs over, kicking Punk in the side to get him off of Ryback. Heyman receives a lot of boos from the crowd as he prevents Punk from picking up the victory. Heyman once again tries pulling Ryback to his feet and this time Ryback comes to enough to push himself up. Punk also gets to his feet using the barricade for support. Punk gets to his feet and instantly Ryback charges over and sends him over the barricade with a Meat Hook. Punk hits the ground at the other side of the barricade and the fans in the front row jump to their feet to avoid getting hit. Ryback shakes off the cobwebs a little before hopping the barricade and going back on the attack, stomping away at the grounded Punk. Heyman shouts at Ryback to help him over the barricade, which he promptly does. While Ryback is distracted, Punk signals for the fans in the seats in front of him to move – which they do. Ryback then turns to go back after Punk but Punk surprises him with a kick to the leg of Ryback that causes him to trip over and fall head first into the chairs. Punk slowly climbs back to his feet and looks down at Ryback for a moment before looking over his shoulder at Heyman with an extremely evil look on his face. The colour drains out of Heyman’s face as he begins to plead with Punk to leave him but Punk just turns and begins to walk towards Heyman. Heyman realises that Punk isn’t going to leave him so instead goes for the next option, run. Heyman runs as fast as he has ever run before through the crowd and Punk is hot on his tail. Heyman runs up the stairs as fast as he possibly can before bursting through the curtain to the backstage area. Heyman looks up and down the corridor for the best route of escape but realises Punk is just behind him so runs up the right as it was the least crowded route. Heyman pushes fans aside as he runs up the corridor before cutting through a fire escape door. Heyman nearly falls as he runs down the steps with Punk closing in. Heyman reaches the bottom of the steps and bursts out the door to the street outside of the arena. Heyman rushes onto the road and narrowly avoids getting hit by a car as he reaches the other side. Heyman finally stops to catch his breath and looks across the road as Punk bursts out of the door. There is heavy traffic now, preventing Punk from getting across the road. Heyman begins to laugh at Punk’s inability to get to him when suddenly Punk steps out in front of a car, causing the traffic to screech to a halt. Punk bounds across the road and Heyman quickly takes off yet again, albeit at a slower pace. Heyman waits for an opening in the traffic to run across the road, now at the entrance to the arena. Punk is quick in also getting across the road so Heyman doesn’t have time to catch his breath before running inside the arena. Heyman runs straight for an open elevator and gets to it just before the doors close. Punk reaches the elevator and kicks the closed door as the elevator makes it ascent. Punk wastes no time and runs up the stairs at the side of the elevator. Punk gets up a few flights when Ryback bursts through a door and instantly grabs Punk by the throat. Ryback uses his strength to throw Punk at the door, taking it off of its hinges as Punk pummels through it. Ryback storms through the door as Punk begins crawling away from him with the referee standing close by. Ryback grabs Punk by the head and drags him through the curtain and back into the crowd. Ryback goes to throw Punk down the flight of stairs but Punk turns it around and uses Ryback’s momentum to send him stumbling down the stairs to the next landing. Punk then hops up onto the railing and slides down it before catching Ryback with a knee to the jaw at the bottom – much to the delight of the crowd. Ryback nearly falls down the next flight of stairs but Punk grabs hold of his arm and pulls him up onto his shoulders instead. Punk looks up the stairs as Heyman emerges from behind the curtain and gives him a sly grin before nailing Ryback with the GTS. Ryback hits the ground and Punk instantly makes the cover as the referee counts the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “Here is your winner, CM Punk!”The crowd give a massive pop as Punk finally picks up the victory. Punk slowly gets to his feet but is clearly hurt from the brutality of this match before having the referee raise his arm in the air. Punk then turns and looks over at an extremely worried looking Heyman. Heyman knows what is coming and turns, taking off through the curtain. Punk runs up the stairs after him and emerges in time to see Heyman go into the stairwell that leads to the parking lot. Punk takes after Heyman and chases him down with Heyman having a good lead on Punk. Punk finally reaches the bottom and bursts into the parking lot with no sign of Heyman. Punk looks around, searching for his former friend and manager. Suddenly an engine is heard turning on and Punk sprints around the corner in time to see Heyman pull out of his parking space and take off out of the exit. Punk curses after Heyman as his car disappears off into the distance.Justin Roberts: “The following Triple Threat Match set for one fall is for the World Heavyweight Championship!”I’M HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD! I’M HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first from Hollywood, Florida and weighing 213lb, Dolph Ziggler!”The crowd jump to their feet in cheers as Dolph Ziggler struts out onto the stage sporting his wrestling trunks and a torn pink vest with “SHOW OFF” on the back. Ziggler grins out to the crowd before dramatically turning around on the stage and spreading his arms out while he twists his body around, showing off his vest. Ziggler turns around and flicks his hair back before throwing it forward and proceeding down the ramp. He shouts out to the crowd the entire time before reaching the ring and sliding inside.I HEAR VOICES IN MY HEAD!Justin Roberts: “Introducing next from St Louis, Missouri and weighing 235lb, Randy Orton!”There are heavy boos coming from the crowd, mixed with some cheers, as Randy Orton slowly walks out onto the stage with an emotionless look on his face. He looks down the ramp at Ziggler in the ring and a tiny grin creeps onto his face before he proceeds down the ramp. Orton ignores the crowd on his way before walking up the steps and entering the ring, standing opposite Ziggler and not taking his eyes off of him.Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome at this time, Alberto Del Rio’s personal ring announcer, Ricardo Rodriguez!”Ricardo Rodriguez: “Señoras y señores, por favor baje el culo sin valor y demos la bienvenida al campeón de peso pesado del mundo, el gran Albertooooooo Del Rioooooooooo!”REALEZA!The loudest boos of this match thus far are heard from the crowd as Alberto Del Rio slowly walks out onto the stage with his World Heavyweight Championship around his waist and a scarf with his initials on each end around his neck. Del Rio stands on the stage and shakes hands with Ricardo before making his way down the ramp. Del Rio stops at the bottom of the ramp and looks around at the crowd with a grin on his face before running up the steps and entering the ring. Del Rio hands over his Championship before taking off his towel and throwing it to the outside.Dolph Ziggler .versus. Randy Orton .versus. Alberto Del Rio © w/ Ricardo Rodriguez ~ World Heavyweight ChampionshipThe three men stand in their respective corners, looking from one to the other with nobody yet making the first move. Orton and Ziggler make eye contact and Ziggler cocks his head towards Del Rio and Orton gives a little smirk before nodding in response. Ziggler and Orton then slowly begin to close in on Del Rio, who backs right into the corner and pleads with the two of them to leave him alone. The two men finally corner Del Rio fully and both begin to kick and punch away at the current World Champion. The two men get Del Rio grounded before beginning to stomp at his face and chest. Ricardo runs round to the corner of Del Rio and grabs his leg before pulling him to the outside, out of harm’s way. Ziggler makes to go out after Del Rio but Orton snatches him from behind and rolls him up for the 1..2.KICKOUT! Ziggler kicks out of the roll up and jumps to his feet at the same time as Orton. Ziggler looks at Orton in annoyance and asks him what the hell he is doing, to which Orton merely laughs. Ziggler, clearly frustrated, lashes out at Orton and slaps him hard across the cheek. Orton takes a step back after the blow and puts a hand up to his cheek. Orton seems to just see red as his expression changes to complete anger and he lunges at Ziggler, unloading with a flurry of rights and lefts to the jaw and then to the abdomen. Orton backs Ziggler up against the ropes before whipping him across the ring and catching him on the rebound with the snap scoop powerslam. Orton climbs back to his feet and seethes down at Ziggler as Del Rio comes in the ring and catches Orton with a swift kick to the side of the leg. Orton’s leg buckles and he falls to one knee, allowing Del Rio to take him down with a kick to the side of the head. Orton hits the mat and Del Rio makes the cover on him for just a one count. Del Rio gets back up and kicks away at Orton before turning his attention to the rising Ziggler. Del Rio catches Ziggler with a boot to the side that sends him back down to the mat. Del Rio drops to his knees and begins to pound away t Ziggler with repeated forearm shots. Del Rio eventually gives in and stops his attack, getting to his feet and looking at his two downed opponents. Del Rio leaves the ring and reaches under the ring, coming back up with a pipe in his hand. Del Rio looks satisfied with what he has found as he gets back in the ring and stalks both men, waiting to see who will be the first to rise. Orton is the first of the two to begin rising but Ziggler is not long in rising after him. Orton gets upright and Del Rio charges at him with the pipe but Orton ducks underneath the blow and turns, waiting for Del Rio to turn back to him. The moment Del Rio turns around Orton nails him with the RKO to a big pop from the crowd. Orton climbs back to his feet after hitting the move but he gets hit with the Zig Zag from Ziggler out of nowhere to an even bigger pop from the crowd. Orton hits the mat and Ziggler wastes no time in hooking his leg for the 1..2..BREAK UP! The crowd are going crazy with boos as Ricardo gets in the ring and breaks up Ziggler’s pinfall attempt before the referee counts the three. Ziggler gets to his feet looking extremely pissed off and turns on Ricardo who is standing very defiantly in the middle of the ring. Ziggler walks over to Ricardo and grabs him by the hair, shouting in his face. Ricardo looks to be extremely frightened as Ziggler threatens him over and over again. Del Rio can be seen slowly rising to his feet at the ropes in the corner behind Ziggler, seemingly unbeknownst to Ziggler himself. Del Rio finally gets up and he charges over for a superkick to the back of Ziggler’s head but Ziggler senses it coming and moves out of the way at the last second, causing Del Rio to take out Ricardo instead. Del Rio looks down at Ricardo in shock before Ziggler comes from behind for the Zig Zag but Del Rio is able to block it and causes Ziggler to fall down to the mat himself. Del Rio turns and Orton comes out of nowhere for the RKO but Del Rio is able to get free of that as well and pushes Orton away from him. Orton rebounds off of the ropes and stumbles back a little when Ziggler jumps up from the mat and takes out Orton with the Zig Zag. Ziggler gets up to his knees and goes to make the cover on Orton but Del Rio comes from the side and takes out Ziggler with a massive kick to the side of the head. Ziggler slumps down to the mat and Del Rio is slow in making the cover on him – clearly still dazed from the RKO – for the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “Here is your winner and STILL the World Heavyweight Champion, Alberto Del Rio!”The boos coming from the crowd are deafening as Del Rio picks up the pinfall on Ziggler. Del Rio gets up to his feet and snatches the World Heavyweight Championship from the referee and raising it in the air with both hands. Del Rio falls against the ropes and clutches the Championship to his chest while looking at the three bodies down in the ring.LET ME GO, THE BLOOD DRIPS FROM YOUR CAMERA!Every single member of this LA crowd are on their feet going crazy as Cody Rhodes walks out onto the stage with a referee in tow. Rhodes looks down at the ring and locks eyes with Del Rio, who is shaking his head and screaming “NO” over and over again at Rhodes. Rhodes laughs a little to himself before running down the ramp and sliding in the ring, with the referee quick behind him. Rhodes hands his briefcase over to the referee, who walks over to the side of the ring and hands it over to Justin Roberts – giving him instructions as he does so.Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen Cody Rhodes is cashing in his Money In The Bank contract for the World Heavyweight Championship!”Alberto Del Rio © .versus. Cody Rhodes ~ World Heavyweight ChampionshipThe referee rings the bell and Rhodes instantly goes after Del Rio, catching him with multiple right hands over the jaw before kicking him in the midsection and hitting him with a DDT. Rhodes gets back to his feet and looks around at the screaming fans with a massive grin on his face before signalling for Cross Rhodes. The crowd cheer even louder as Rhodes lifts a groggy Del Rio up and grabs his head before getting him in position. Rhodes takes one last look into the camera before nailing the Cross Rhodes on Del Rio for the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winner of this match and NEWWWWW World Heavyweight Champion, Cody Rhodes!”The crowd are going crazy on their feet as Justin announces Rhodes as the winner. He gets up to his knees and clearly has tears in his eyes as the referee walks over and hands him the World Heavyweight Championship. Rhodes takes the Championship from him before getting to his feet and raising it in the air with one hand while the referee raises his other. Rhodes drops backs to his knees and holds the Championship with both hands. Rhodes gets back to his feet and climbs to the second rope and holds his Championship in the air with both hands while saying how he has finally made it. Rhodes continues to celebrate his big victory as we slowly fade to black.AWESOME! I CAME TO PLAY!Massive cheers go up from this LA crowd as we come back to the ring with the entire MizTV set rigged up. The Miz stands in the centre of the ring with a massive grin on his face, staring at the camera as his music slowly fades.The Miz: “Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the most must see WWE talk show in history; MizTV!”Another cheer goes up from the crowd as Miz introduces us to the show.The Miz: “So far tonight we have seen some great moments! We have seen Daniel Bryan make Chris Jericho tap out (closely followed by Chris Jericho taking out Daniel Bryan), we have seen The Shield retain their gold in emphatic fashion against Christian and Air Boom, we have seen the return of the dominant Kharma who just took out four of the best divas here in the WWE, we have seen CM Punk defeat Ryback in a hellacious Falls Count Anywhere Match and we have even just seen Cody Rhodes cash in his Money In The Bank contract to win his FIRST EVER WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!”There are massive cheers from the crowd for each of these moments mentioned by Miz but there is no louder pop from the crowd than when Miz makes reference to Cody Rhodes cashing in.The Miz: “We have had some great moments already tonight and there are more to come but right now we are about to see a moment that won’t just affect tonight but a moment that may change the immediate future of the WWE. Right now we are about to find out the future of the General Manager position on RAW!”The crowd continue to cheer Miz as he hypes them up for what is to come.The Miz: “The night after Money In The Bank saw the end of the brand extension as RAW and Smackdown once again became one. Instead of having to choose between two men, Mr McMahon decided that then RAW General Manager Brad Maddox and then Smackdown General Manager Booker T would combine to become the Co-General Managers of Monday Night RAW. After tonight, this will be no more.”The crowd start up a “Booker T” chant, clearly showing who they are supporting to get that spot.The Miz: “Tonight we find out who will be the sole General Manager of RAW for the immediate future. So without further ado, please welcome the Chairman of the WWE, Mr McMahon!”NO CHANCE!Massive cheers go up from the crowd as Mr McMahon struts out onto the stage with a massive grin on his face. McMahon looks out to the crowd as he struts down the ramp in his usual manner. McMahon reaches the bottom of the ramp and walks up the steps before entering the ring. McMahon shakes hands with Miz before picking up a microphone from a stool.The Miz: “Welcome to MizTV Mr McMahon, shall we get down to business?”Mr McMahon: “Thank you Miz and yes, let’s get right down to business. First of all I’d like Brad Maddox to come out.”TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!The fans instantly begin to boo as Brad Maddox walks out onto the stage to the RAW theme music. Brad looks extremely nervous as he makes his way down the ramp and gets in the ring. Brad goes to shake McMahon’s hand but McMahon merely tells Brad to take a seat on the couch.Mr McMahon: “Booker, get out here.”CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKA?!A massive pop goes up from the crowd as Booker T walks out onto the stage and waves out to them. Booker walks down the ramp with a massive grin on his face before getting in the ring and taking a seat next to Brad. Miz hands both gentlemen on the couch a microphone before taking a seat on the stool in a corner as the camera focuses in on Mr McMahon standing in the centre of the ring.Mr McMahon: “Gentlemen you both know why I brought you out here so let’s not waste anymore time. I have thought long and hard about who I would choose to take over as General Manager of RAW but it has proven harder than I had anticipated. That is why I have come to a compromise and if somebody wants to be General Manager then they are sure as hell going to earn it.”A pop goes up from the crowd as McMahon continues.Mr McMahon: “That is why tomorrow night on RAW there is going to be an Open Battle Royal. Anyone who is backstage at tomorrow’s show – whether they are currently signed to the WWE or not – will be eligible to compete in this Battle Royal with the winner becoming the new General Manager of RAW.”There is a much larger cheer from the crowd at this shock announcement.Mr McMahon: “When I say any-”SIERRA! HOTEL! INDIA! ECHO! LIMA! DELTA! SHIELD!A massive pop goes up from the crowd as the music of The Shield hits. The camera focuses in on the top of a flight of stairs in the crowd. Standing at the top of said stairs is all three members of The Shield with their respective Championships over their shoulders. The three men slowly begin to descend the stairs as the four gentlemen in the ring get to their feet and stare up at them. The Shield reach the barricade and hop over before beginning to surround their ring, with the exception of the side of the ring which is situated at the bottom of the ramp. The three men climb up onto the apron and look in at the four in the ring before Brad sees his opportunity and runs out of the ring before making a beeline up the ramp. The three members of The Shield take this distraction to their advantage and get in the ring before instantly going after their prey. Meanwhile, Brad reaches the top of the ramp and looks back at the ring laughing – thinking he has escaped – but suddenly someone runs out from behind the curtain and tackles Brad to the mat. The man begins to unload on Brad as The Shield continue their assault on the three men in the ring. The man climbs to his feet and the camera zooms in on his face to reveal him as NXT Superstar Kassius Ohno – clad in The Shield’s patented ‘uniform’. Ohno picks Brad up and marches down the ramp with him before rolling him in the ring. Ohno slides in the ring after him and kicks him hard in the side of the head before walking over and helping his seemingly new friends in disposing Miz outside of the ring. Ohno lifts McMahon up to his feet before hitting him with a stiff elbow to the jaw and tossing him to the outside. Ohno turns and watches along with his cohorts as Booker begins to rise back to his feet. Ohno walks over and joins Ambrose and Rollins and lifting Booker into the air before placing him on the shoulders of Reigns, who hastily him with the Powerbomb. They then turn their attention to Brad and repeats this action, leaving both men out cold in the centre of the ring. The three official members of The Shield close their right hand into a fist and touch them together in front of them. They then turn their heads to a grinning Ohno, who walks over and joins his fist to theirs to a pop from some of his fans in the crowd. The camera shows the carnage in and around the ring as The Shield continue to stand over their fallen prey.Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen the following Six Man Tag Team Match is set for one fall!”ONE OF A KIND!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first from Battle Creek, Michigan and weighing 235lb, Rob Van Dam!”The crowd burst into cheers as Rob Van Dam runs out onto the stage to one, short explosion of pyro. RVD stands on the stage, looking out to the crowd with a massive grin on his face. RVD does his signature thumb taunt as the crowd chant his name before he makes his way down the ramp. He slaps hands with a few fans on the way before rolling in the ring and getting to his feet. He jumps around in a circle before walking over to the ropes and leaning against them as he awaits his partners.VEIL OF FIRE!Justin Roberts: “Introducing his partners, first, weighing 323lb, Kane!”The lights in the arena go out before Kane’s titantron and music hit, sparking massive cheers from the crowd. Fire begins to bellow out on the stage, giving the only light inside the arena. When that stops a faint red glow begins to spread throughout the arena as Kane walks out onto the stage wearing his entrance mask. Kane storms down the ramp as the cheers continue to pour out of the crowd before he gets up on the apron and enters over the top rope. Kane stands in the centre of the ring and slowly raises his arms into the air before bringing them crashing down as fire explodes from the turnbuckles and the lights in the arena come back on. Kane then proceeds to take off his entrance mask and throw it outside the ring as he joins RVD against the ropes.GONG! GONG! GONG! GONG!Justin Roberts: “Introducing their partner from Death Valley and weighing 299lb, The Undertaker!”The crowd explode into cheers, giving the biggest pop of the evening, as every light in the arena goes out at the sound of those four familiar gongs. Once the gongs end there is a moment of silence before Undertaker’s music hits and smoke begins to bellow out around the ringside area. Thunder and lightning begins to be heard around the arena as balls of fire are repeatedly blown up along the stage. The camera eventually zooms in on the smoke filled stage as Undertaker slowly emerges wearing a large hooded leather cloak that is fastened up. Undertaker stops on the stage and stands with his head bowed and his hands clasped before slowly making his way down the ramp. Undertaker reaches the bottom of the ramp and looks up at the ring before slowly making his way up the steps. Undertaker enters the ring and walks over to the centre before throwing his hood down and rolling his eyes back as the lights in the arena come back on. Undertaker takes off his cloak and throws it to the outside before nodding his head at his two partners.WE’RE HERE!Justin Roberts: “Introducing their opponents at a combined weight of 865lb, Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, The Wyatt Family!”There are a large mixture of cheers and boos coming from the crowd as every light in the arena goes out once again. A light appears on the stage and the camera zooms in to reveal Bray Wyatt holding a lantern in his right hand which illuminates his face along with a man wearing a lamb mask over his right shoulder – presumably Erick Rowan – along with a faint illumination of Luke Harper over his left shoulder. The three men slowly make their way down the ramp with just the light from the lantern lighting their way. They eventually reach the bottom of the ramp at which point Wyatt blows out the lantern, leaving the arena in complete darkness. After a few moments of complete darkness the lights come back on to reveal The Wyatt Family all standing in the corner of the ring.Rob Van Dam & The Brothers Of Destruction .versus. The Wyatt FamilyAll six men remain standing in the ring, clearly wanting an all out brawl in this match. The referee stands in the middle of the ring between the two teams, telling them to pick someone to start. Kane looks at both Undertaker and RVD and they can tell from the look in his eyes that he wants to start so they both step out onto the apron leaving Kane inside. Wyatt spreads out his arms and uses them to push back Harper and Rowan a little, telling them that he wants to start this one. Harper and Rowan reluctantly step out of the ring, leaving Wyatt standing opposite Kane. The two men walk over to the centre of the ring and lock eyes before Kane makes the first move by hitting Wyatt with the uppercut. Wyatt stumbles back and begins to laugh, which only angers Kane even more. Kane throws a wild right hand at Wyatt but Wyatt avoids it and waits for Kane to turn around before slapping him hard across the face. Kane glares at Wyatt, who merely grins at him. Kane goes to hit Wyatt again but for a second time Wyatt avoids the blow and this time gets the tag to Harper. Harper gets in the ring and waits for Kane to turn around before throwing himself forward and taking down Kane with a wild clothesline. Kane hits the mat but is back up almost instantly, despite being slightly dazed. Harper wastes no time and tackles Kane down to the mat, where he proceeds to hit Kane with blow after blow in a very ugly fashion. Harper continues to beat away at Kane and shows no signs of letting up until Wyatt shouts over to him and tells him to stop. Harper gets to his feet and leaves Kane on the mat as he walks over and tags in Rowan. Rowan gets in the ring and begins pulling Kane to his feet but Kane is quick to take control by sending Rowan back with a big uppercut. Rowan charges back over at Kane but Kane takes him down with a massive boot to the face. Kane adjusts his mask into the correct position before grabbing Rowan by the arm and dragging him into the corner, getting the tag to RVD. RVD wastes no time in throwing himself over the top rope and coming down with a leg drop to the head of Rowan. RVD makes the cover but only gets a one count before Rowan powers out. RVD gets back to his feet and waits for Rowan to begin rising back to his feet before going for a kick to the head. Rowan sees it coming and catches RVD’s boot before lifting him up into the air and slamming him back down hard to the mat. Rowan looks over to his corner where a grinning Wyatt extends his hand for the tag. Rowan walks over and tags in Wyatt, who goes straight on the offensive with RVD. He unloads on the grounded opponent with boots all over. Wyatt eventually stops his attack and allows the referee to check on RVD, which in turn gives RVD a little time to recuperate. RVD tells the referee he is fine before grabbing onto the ropes and trying to pull him up to his feet. Wyatt stands back, allowing RVD to do this, and waits for him to get up standing before charging over and hitting a running crossbody. Wyatt gets to his feet and stands above a squashed RVD before turning to Kane and Undertaker in the corner and mockingly laughing at them. Wyatt turns his back on the two men and grabs RVD by the head, pulling him back to his feet. Wyatt grabs him in position for Sister Abigail and laughs out as he goes to hit the move. RVD , however, is able to get free at the last minute and sends Wyatt down to the mat with a swift kick to the head. Wyatt hits the mat and RVD instantly jumps over to his corner, getting the tag to Undertaker to a massive roar from the crowd. Undertaker steps into the ring and goes straight after the rising Wyatt, hitting him with multiple blows to the midsection that sends him into the corner. Undertaker begins to unload on both Wyatt’s midsection and his face to massive cheers from this capacity crowd. Undertaker stops throwing punches and allows Wyatt to slump forward a little before grabbing his arm and switching positions with Wyatt. Undertaker climbs up to the top rope and the crowd are on their feet as he begins to walk along the top rope. Before Undertaker is able to go for Old School, Wyatt tugs on his arm and causes Undertaker to lose his balance and land hard on the top rope on his groin. There are massive boos from the crowd as Wyatt laughs at the deadman as he falls off the top rope and back into the ring. Wyatt kicks Undertaker in the head before walking over to his corner and tagging in Harper. Harper steps into the ring and slowly stalks over to Undertaker as he begins getting to his feet. Harper catches him with a stiff knee to the head that grounds the phenom once again. Harper drops to his knees and grabs hold of Undertaker’s head with one hand and then begins to hit him in the face with repeated blows with his other hand. Harper eventually lets up and get to his feet before walking over to Undertaker’s corner. Kane instantly goes to punch Harper but Harper catches it before grabbing hold of Kane’s hair and dragging him over the top rope into the ring. By this point, Rowan is also in the ring and he charges over to the corner and takes out RVD with a massive boot to the head. Rowan turns and helps Harper in pulling Kane to his feet. The two men get the big red machine to his feet before both grabbing him by the throat. There are a mixture of cheers and boos at the irony as both Rowan and Harper lift Kane into the air and nail a Double Chokeslam to Kane that sends him crashing down to the ground on the outside. The referee finally steps in and tells Rowan to leave the ring, which he slowly does. Harper turns into a massive right hand from Undertaker, who backs him into the ropes with a flurry of punches. Undertaker then grabs the arm of Harper and whips him across the ring. As Harper rebounds off of the ropes, Wyatt leans over and tags himself in. Harper bounces off of the ropes and runs straight into a big boot from Undertaker. Rowan runs in the ring and catches Undertaker by surprise with a big clothesline that sends him down to the mat. Undertaker lands on his back so Rowan quickly runs off of the ropes and comes back with a big splash, much to the displeasure of the crowd. Rowan rolls out of the ring as Undertaker lies in the centre of the ring, not moving. Wyatt is slow in stepping into the ring and has a massive grin on his face as he is the only men out of the six of them who is standing. Wyatt has a slight swagger to his step as he makes his way over to the deadman. Wyatt gives out a laugh as he places his foot on the chest of Undertaker for the 1..2..KICKOUT! Wyatt looks slightly shocked as Undertaker suddenly sits up, forcing Wyatt’s foot off of him. Wyatt takes a few steps back as Undertaker climbs to his feet with a crazed look in his eyes. Undertaker begins to go after Wyatt when Harper comes from behind and hits Undertaker in the back of the head, sending him down to one knee. Rowan soon comes back in the ring and joins Harper in beating down Undertaker until Wyatt tells them to stop. Wyatt then signals for them to lift Undertaker to his feet, which they promptly do. Wyatt then grabs hold of Undertaker and hooks his head before laughing into the camera and nailing Sister Abigail. There are massive boos from the crowd as Wyatt hooks the leg of Undertaker with Harper and Rowan supplying extra pressure by pushing down on top of him for the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winners of this match, The Wyatt Family!”The boos in the arena are deafening as Wyatt picks up the pinfall on Undertaker. Wyatt climbs back to his feet and grabs the wrist of both Harper and Rowan before raising their arms in the air. The three men stand with their arms in the air as Justin announces them as the victors. The three men celebrate their victory in the ring as RVD and Kane begin to come to at ringside.Justin Roberts: “The following Escape Only Steel Cage Match is for the WWE Championship!”SOMEBODY’S GONNA GET THEIR ASS KICKED!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first, the challenger, from Silsbee, Texas and weighing 412lb, he is the World’s Strongest Man, Mark Henry!”There are massive boos coming from the crowd as Mark Henry slowly stalks out onto the stage. Henry stands in the entranceway with his head bowed for a few moments before slowly looking up and staring out to the crowd. Henry slowly begins walking down the ramp, ignoring the jeering crowd. Henry reaches the ring and looks to the crowd for a moment before walking up the steps and entering the ring.YOU CAN’T SEE ME, MY TIME IS NOW!Justin Roberts: “Introducing his opponent from West Newbury, Massachusetts and weighing 251lb, he is the current WWE Champion, John Cena!”John Cena runs out onto the stage to his usual mixed reaction from the crowd, with the boos managing to outweigh the cheers. Cena has a massive grin on his face as he looks out to the crowd from the stage. He turns to the camera and states that “a lot of The Rock’s fans must be in the building tonight”. Cena then turns back to the crowd and salutes them before charging down the ramp and jumping in the ring. Cena gets to his feet and raises his WWE Championship in the air with both hands before turning and handing it over to the referee. Cena stands in the corner opposite Henry as the referee raises the WWE Championship in the air with both hands. The referee then leaves the ring with the WWE Championship, leaving Henry and Cena alone in the ring as the Steel Cage begins to lower. The moment the cage is secured in position around the ring, a referee padlocks the cage door shut and signals for the bell to be rang.Mark Henry .versus. John Cena © ~ Escape Only Steel Cage WWE Championship MatchHenry charges across at Cena the moment the cell is in place and takes him down with a massive clothesline. Henry stands over Cena as he rolls aside and rises back to his feet, slightly dazed after the attack. Henry goes after Cena again but this time Cena is ready for him and catches him with a right hand to the jaw the moment he gets close to him. Henry answers with a right hand of his own that causes Cena to stumble a little. This slight stumble is the opening Henry needed and he quickly grabs Cena by the head and throws him aside into the cage. The crowd give a pop as the cage comes into play for the first time and Cena bounces off of the steel before stumbling back into a clubbing blow over the back of the head from Henry. Cena hits the mat and Henry roars out to the crowd. Henry leans over and grabs Cena by the head before pulling him up to his feet. Henry talks smack to Cena before shoving him into the corner. Henry proceeds to charge over at the corner for a squash but Cena is able to move out of the way, causing Henry to collide with the turnbuckles. Henry walks backwards out of the corner and Cena waits for him to get a good bit away from the corner before coming from behind for the one handed bulldog, only for Henry to stay on his feet and send Cena flying down to the mat himself. Cena gets tangled up in the bottom rope and Henry turns, shouting for the referee to open the cage door. The referee unlocks the padlock on the door and opens it, ready for Henry to leave. Henry walks over to the corner and goes to step out through the ropes but is stopped as Cena comes from behind and grabs Henry’s foot, pulling him back into the ring and taking him down to the mat in the process. The referee now closes the door, locking it shut once again. Henry begins rising to his feet as Cena jumps to the top rope in the corner. Cena waits for Henry to get in a leaned over position before diving down and catching the bigger man with a leg drop to the back of the head. Henry hits the mat and Cena jumps to his feet and instantly begins to scale the cage. Cena gets up around halfway before Henry gets to his feet and grabs hold of Cena’s foot, pulling him down to the mat before taking him down with a big shoulder block. Henry looks down at Cena with a grin on his face before grabbing him by the head and pulling him back up once again. Henry hits Cena with a big elbow to the head that causes him to stumble back into the ropes. Henry then charges at Cena and goes for a clothesline but Cena ducks underneath before using Henry’s momentum to lift him up and cause him to hit the cage head first. Henry stumbles back after hitting the cage and Cena instantly hits him with a big shoulder block that takes the World’s Strongest Man down to the mat. Cena gets back to his feet and stands at the head of Henry before raising his arm in the air. Cena leans over and does his “YOU CAN’T SEE ME” taunt to Henry before running off the ropes and coming back for the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Cena gets back to his feet after nailing the move and begins to stalk Henry as he slowly begins to rise to his feet. Henry finally gets up and Cena grabs hold of him before pulling him up onto his shoulders. The crowd are up on their feet as Cena looks set for the AA but Henry’s weight proves too much as Cena falls down to the mat with Henry on top of him. Henry slowly gets to his feet and shakes off the cobwebs before looking from the grounded Cena to the top of the cage. Henry walks over to the ropes and begins to climb them before grabbing onto the cage and slowly scaling it. Henry is almost at the top when Cena gets to his feet and runs over, also climbing the cage. Cena is much quicker compared to Henry and soon reaches him before Henry gets to the top. Cena begins to hit Henry repeatedly with punches to the midsection, trying to cause him to fall from the cage. Henry begins to fight back with punches of his own and, after a few moments of trading blows, both men lose their balance and fall from near the top of the cage to the mat below. The entire ring shudders as the two men hit the mat and the crowd sit in a tense atmosphere, expecting the ring to break. The ring proves stronger than they think and stays in perfect condition as both men roll towards the ropes. Both men grab hold of the ropes and begin to pull themselves to their feet. After a couple of minutes both men get to their feet and Henry instantly charges across at Cena. Cena sees the big man coming and ducks underneath before using Henry’s momentum to get him up on his shoulders and instantly hit the Attitude Adjustment to massive cheers from the crowd. Both men are down on the mat after Cena hits the move but Cena seems to be coming to pretty quickly. Cena grabs hold of the ropes and drags himself up before grabbing onto the cage and trying to pull himself up. Cena gets halfway up the cage when Henry rolls over onto his side and motions for the referee to open the door. Cena is completely unaware of this development as the referee opens up the door. Cena reaches the top of the cage and pauses before trying to haul himself over. By this point Henry has made it to the ring apron and is trying to crawl out of the ring as the entire crowd are on their feet. Cena gets over the cage and begins to climb down but it proves to be too slow as Henry throws himself out of the ring and lands on the ground with a thud.DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winner of this match and the NEWWWWW WWE Champion, Mark Henry!”There is a massive amount of cheers coming from the crowd as Henry finally wins the WWE Championship for the first time in his career. Cena drops down from the side of the cage and sits on the ground with his head in his hands, in complete shock that he didn’t see Henry escaping. Henry is slow in getting to his feet on the outside and has to use the steps as leverage to stay upright as the referee hands him his newly won WWE Championship. Henry has a massive grin on his face as he holds the WWE Championship with both hands and looks down at it. Henry turns and walks up the steps, getting back inside the ring. The cage begins to rise as Henry holds the Championship in the air with both hands. The crowd continue to cheer Henry as he takes in this moment with Summerslam going off the air.

“Then. Now. Forever.”August 19th 2013TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!RAW comes on the air with pyro exploding all over the stage. The Anaheim, California fans jump to their feet in cheers, holding up multiple signs; a lot of which are congratulating Cody Rhodes on his World Heavyweight Championship victory last night. The majority of the signs, however, are expressing their surprise at Mark Henry winning the WWE Championship last night. The camera cuts to the commentary booth where Michael Cole sits with JBL on one side and Jerry ‘The ’ Lawler on the other. The three of them welcome us to the show before the camera whips round to the ring for the show getting underway.Lilian Garcia: “Ladies and Gentlemen the following is an Open Battle Royal Match! The winner of this match will be made the permanent General Manager of Monday night RAW!”There are already a number of participants in the ring.

Piper makes his way down the ramp, shouting out to the crowd, and gets in the ring with the now growing mass of bodies.WOOOOOOOO!There is an even louder pop as Ric Flair walks out onto the stage with a large golden robe wrapped rightly around him. Flair struts down the ramp with a massive grin on his face as the crowd repeatedly shout out “WOOOO”. Flair takes off his rope and is wearing his wrestling trunks and a custom top before getting in the ring.I THINK I’M CUTE!The loudest pop of the night so far comes from the crowd as Shawn Michaels dances out onto the stage in his ring gear. Michaels stands on the stage and does a little dance before making his way down the ramp, shouting out to the crowd on his way. Michaels slaps hands with the fans on his way before getting in the ring, making the final number of competitors 25.Open Battle Royal Match ~ Permanent RAW General Manager Position//CLOSING MOMENTS\\MICHAELS ELIMINATES PIPER! A massive pop goes up from the crowd as Michaels flips Piper over the top rope to the outside. This leaves us with our final five being Michaels, Flair, Miz, JBL and Heyman. The five men get up and stare at one another, nobody making a move yet. Suddenly, CM Punk comes charging down the ramp and jumps in the ring. Punk goes straight after Heyman and kicks him in the midsection. Heyman doubles over and Punk instantly grabs him by the head and waist before throwing him over the top rope – much to the delight of the crowd. Punk leaves the ring and chases Heyman up the ramp as the four guys still in the ring begin to brawl. JBL shoves Miz over to the ropes before charging over and nailing him with a Clothesline From Hell that sends him over the top rope and to the outside. A massive pop goes up from the crowd as JBL turns and Michaels runs across at him, only for JBL to sidestep it and throw Michaels over the top rope to the outside – getting a mixed reaction from the crowd. JBL turns and looks over at Flair, who is clearly tired out from the match. The two men meet in the centre of the ring and shake hands before Flair gets the cheap shot on JBL, poking him in the eyes. JBL stumbles back against the ropes and Flair walks over, trying to lift JBL over the top rope. JBL is able to use his power to hit Flair with a big right hand to the jaw before grabbing his head and throwing him to the outside to a massive pop from the crowd.DING! DING! DING!The crowd continue to cheer as JBL is announced as the new General Manager by Lilian Garcia. JBL raises his arms in the air as a massive grin spreads over his face. JBL turns and steps out of the ring, walking over to the announce table where Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler congratulate JBL on his victory. JBL shakes both of their hands before picking up his blazer and hat and heading up the ramp.~We open up in the parking lot as a car with tinted out windows pulls up inside. After a few moments, the driver door opens and Chris Jericho steps out to massive boos from the crowd inside the arena. Jericho walks over to his trunkl and opens it before pulling out his bags. Jericho closes the trunk and turns around, heading inside the arena.~Lilian Garcia: “Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome at this time...
LET ME GO, THE BLOOD DRIPS FROM YOUR CAMERA!
Lilian Garcia: “... the new World Heavyweight Champion, Cody Rhodes!”
The crowd go crazy with cheers as Cody Rhodes walks out onto the stage wearing the suit and with his newly won World Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder. Rhodes stands on the stage and looks out to the crowd with a massive grin on his face before walking down the ramp. Rhodes reaches the ring and runs up the steps before entering the ring and grabbing a microphone. He pauses for a few moments, basking in the cheers from the crowd, before finally beginning to speak.
Cody Rhodes: “Your NEWWWW World Heavyweight Champion!”
Rhodes chuckles to himself as the crowd give him a massive pop.
Cody Rhodes: “Last night was by far the biggest night of my career! When I defeated Damien Sandow I thought that I’d gone out there and accomplished everything I wanted that night and then I could rest up and wait for the best opportunity to cash in my Money In The Bank contract. I did not expect that – an hour later – I would be making my way down to the ring and cashing on Alberto Del Rio. Last night really did prove to me that anything can happen at any time here in the WWE. I saw my opportunity to prey on a weak Alberto Del Rio and I took it. It paid off.”
As Rhodes makes that last statement, he holds the World Heavyweight Championship in the air with one hand to cheers from the crowd.
Cody Rhodes: “I am honestly still in shock that I am actually World Heavyweight Champion. When I was growing up around guys like my father Dusty Rhodes, “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase and Andre The Giant I didn’t once believe that I would achieve World Champion status here in the WWE. Yet here I am, finally at the top of the mountain!”
The crowd give a loud pop for Rhodes as he says this.
Cody Rhodes: “I honestly can’t wait for the challenges ahead, especially my first Championship defence at Night Of Champions. I don’t know who I will face yet but whoever it i-”
REALEZA!
The fans begin to boo extremely loudly as Alberto Del Rio interrupts Rhodes. Del Rio storms out onto the stage with an extremely pissed off look on his face. Del Rio makes his way down the ramp, not taking his eyes off of Rhodes the entire time. Del Rio walks up the steps and gets into the ring before grabbing a microphone and getting right in Rhodes’ face.
Alberto Del Rio: “You made a big mistake on Sunday, amigo! You do not mess with me! You got lucky at Summerslam Cody and it will not happen again! I want my rematch Cody and I want it esta noche, tonight!”
The crowd give a cheer at the prospect of a World Championship Match tonight.
Cody Rhodes: “Alberto there is a difference between luck and timing. I did not get lucky when I beat you at Summerslam, I just got the timing right. If you want your rematch tonight then you got it Alberto but when I beat you I don’t want any excuses. After our match tonight I am facing a different opponent at Night Of Champions, got it?”
Alberto Del Rio: “Lo tengo!”
Del Rio drops his microphone to the mat and stares into Rhodes’ eyes for a few moments. After a few moments, Del Rio slaps Rhodes hard across the face. Rhodes puts his hand up to his cheek but only responds with a laugh. Rhodes tells Del Rio to save it for later before barging passed him and leaving the ring. Del Rio continues to fume after Rhodes as he heads up the ramp with his Championship over his shoulder.

The divas locker room is packed with every WWE Diva ranging from Summer Rae to Divas Champion AJ. AJ is sitting by herself in the corner with the broken Divas Championship on the bench next to her. The divas are all talking amongst themselves, repeatedly mentioning Kharma under their breath. Suddenly the door bursts open and Kharma walks in and looks around at all of the divas. Kharma looks over at AJ and slowly begins to walk over to her as the rest of the divas scurry out through the door. It quickly becomes just Kharma and AJ in the locker room, with AJ still cowering in the corner. Kharma walks right over to AJ and stares at her for a moment before reaching down and picking up both pieces of the Divas Championship. Kharma lets out a maniacal laugh for a few moments before abruptly stopping and turning to leave the locker room. AJ sits in the locker room, staring after Kharma as she leaves with her Championship.

Air Boom run out onto the stage to massive cheers when we come back to the ring. The two men run down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans on the way, before jumping in the ring. Zeb Colter comes out onto the stage on crutches next to massive boos from the crowd. Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro walk out behind him and slowly make their way down the ramp with Colter. Swagger and Cesaro get in the ring while Colter goes around the ring and takes a seat at the announce table – in what used to be JBL’s seat.

//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Kofi runs off the ropes and comes back for a big chop to Cesaro’s head, only for Cesaro to catch Kofi with a big elbow to the midsection. Kofi hits the mat hard and Cesaro signals that he is going for the Neutralizer. Cesaro picks Kofi up off the ground and gets Kofi in position for the move but Kofi gets free and quickly rolls up Cesaro for the 1..2..KICKOUT! Cesaro is able to power out just before the referee counts the three. Both men get to their feet and Kofi goes to jump over to his corner, only for Cesaro to grab Kofi’s tights and pull him back before hitting him over the back of the head with an elbow. Cesaro then turns and tags in Swagger before charging across the ring and knocking Bourne to the ground with a big shoulder block. Cesaro steps out of the ring and keeps Bourne grounded as Swagger lifts Kofi up by the waist and nails the Gutwrench Powerbomb for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
Swagger gets to his feet as the crowd begin to boo very loudly and Cesaro soon joins him in the ring before the two have their arms raised in the air. The two leave the ring and help Colter get to his feet before the three head backstage.

We open up backstage with CM Punk standing in street clothes and massive cheers can be heard emanating from the crowd. The camera pans out to show Josh Mathews standing by the side of Punk with a microphone in his hand.
Josh Mathews: “Punk last night you took on Ryback in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. Many people are saying that your match last night was the best of the night and it saw you pick up a big victory over Ryback. How did it feel to get that victory last night?”
CM Punk: “Josh I really enjoyed my match last night. What I was able to do to Ryback at Summerslam was take out all the frustrations I had built up over the past month against him and Paul Heyman. I took out as much frustration as I could on Ryback but I think it was pretty clear that he wasn’t my main target. I wanted to get Paul Heyman but I couldn’t.”
Josh Mathews: “That brings me to my next point. Punk, what do you have planned for the future for you to finally get your hands on Heyman?”
CM Punk: “Well Josh just because I beat Ryback last night, he will still be Paul’s client. Just like both Brock Lesnar and Curtis Axel are still Paul’s clients. That means that if I ever want to get my hands on Paul again I know when and where he will be; at ringside when one of his pets are competing. I managed to get my hands on Paul earlier tonight but he escaped, just like he escaped at Summerslam. The next time Paul is down at that ring, I am going to go get my hands on him and make him regret the day that he decided to screw me over.”
Josh thanks Punk for his time before Punk walks off with a steely determination in his eyes.

Cody Rhodes stands in the locker room, lacing up his boots while his World Heavyweight Championship rests next to him on the bench. Rhodes sits up straight and begins to stretch off his arms when John Cena walks in with his left arm in a sling. Rhodes gets up to his feet and Cena shakes his hands before patting him on the back.
John Cena: “Cody I just wanted to come see you and congratulate you on winning the World Heavyweight Championship last night. I’ve watched you since you came here to the WWE and I’ve even had some great matches with you. You’ve got a great future ahead of you Cody and I wish you the best of luck.”
Cody Rhodes “Thanks John, that really means a lot. Listen, unlucky about last night, I really thought you had Mark beat after that AA. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the low down on your injury?”
John Cena: “It’s not good. Not good at all.”
Cena gives Rhodes a sad smile before patting him on the back again and leaving the locker room.

Naomi makes her way out to large cheers from the crowd when we come back. Naomi is quick in making her way down the ramp and gets in the ring before AJ makes her way out. AJ makes her way down the ramp and gets in the ring, ready to compete.
Naomi .versus. AJ
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
AJ comes off the ropes but Naomi stops her in her tracks with the Rear View. Naomi panders to the crowd as AJ slowly begins to stumble to her feet. Naomi turns and waits for AJ to get up before taking her right back down with an enzeguri. AJ lands flat on her back by the side of the ropes and Naomi looks out to the crowd with a grin on her face before stepping out onto the apron. Naomi looks out to the cheering crowd before propelling herself over the top rope and coming down on AJ with a leg drop for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
The crowd give a large cheer for Naomi as she picks up a big victory over the Divas Champion. She gets back to her feet and has the referee raise her arm in the air while AJ rolls away into the corner.
HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!
The fans give an even larger cheer as Kharma slowly walks out onto the stage in her signature ring gear and with spiky shoulder pads on and the two pieces of the Divas Championship in her hands. Kharma stops on the stage and unhooks the shoulder pads, letting them fall to the ground, before storming down the ramp. Naomi stands in the centre of the ring looking extremely worried as Kharma gets up onto the apron. The two women lock eyes and Kharma quickly gets inside before going straight for Naomi, taking her down with a clothesline. Kharma drops the two pieces of the Championship before pulling Naomi up to her feet. Kharma sticks Naomi’s head between her legs and hooks her arms before lifting her into the air and bringing her back down with the Implant Buster. Kharma gets up to one knee and stares down at Naomi before suddenly turning her head and glaring at AJ in the corner. Kharma gets up to her feet and picks up the pieces of the Championship and stares at AJ before turning and leaving the ring. Kharma walks over to the ringkeeper’s area and grabs hold of the trash can there before lifting it over to in front of the announce table. Kharma takes off the lid and begins to laugh at AJ as she drops both pieces of the Divas Championship inside it. Kharma continues to laugh for a minute or so before abruptly stopping and heading backstage with the trash can in her hands.

HALLELUJAH!
RAW comes back on the air with Damien Sandow standing in the centre of the ring wearing a sharp suit and with a massive grin on his face. The camera zooms out to show the luxurious setting in the ring, with the mat, turnbuckles and ropes all now being white. There is a black leather couch to Damien’s right and a one person leather chair to his left. Situated in the corner of the ring to the front left of the chair is a plasma screen on a metal stand. Sandow motions for the music to stop before raising his hand in the air to silence the crowd; with it having the opposite effect.
Damien Sandow: “Good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Sandow’s Intellectual Insight! Last night was the annual Summerslam Pay-Per-View and was a great night for some but... not so good for others.”
The crowd begin to repeatedly chant “YOU GOT BEAT” at Sandow, much to his annoyance.
Damien Sandow: “My guest tonight was a man who not only picked up a big victory last night but also suffered a vicious assault. Ladies and Gentlemen please join me in welcoming my guest tonight, the WWE Championship Money In The Bank holder, Daniel Bryan!”
FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES!
The fans go crazy with cheers and “YES” chants as Daniel Bryan walks out onto the stage with his Money In The Bank briefcase in his hand. Bryan looks around at the crowd with a grin on his face before thrusting his arms in the air and screaming “YES” along with the crowd. Bryan continues to do this as he sidesteps down the ramp, stopping when he reaches the bottom. Bryan then proceeds to walk up the steps and get in the ring. Sandow extends his hand for Bryan to shake, which he accepts. Sandow then passes Bryan a microphone before motioning for him to take a seat on the sofa, while he himself sits on the leather chair.
Damien Sandow: “Thank you for joining me Daniel. There are multiple subjects which I wish to discuss with you Daniel but the first I would like to discuss is what happened following your match with Chris Jericho last night at Summerslam. Following your announcement concerning your Money In The Bank contract – which I will get to later – Chris Jericho brutally attacked you and left you out in the middle of the ring after executing a Codebreaker. Do you have any idea what was going through Chris’ head last night when he did this?”
Daniel Bryan: “No. I have no idea whatsoever what Chris’ thought process was last night; I don’t think anyone does. The only guess I have right now as to why Chris attacked me is because he was jealous. Last week on RAW Chris said that he needed to beat me to prove that he can still defeat the future of the WWE so when I beat him last night I think he lost it. I think he realised that he is no longer the wrestler he used to be and it made him snap and he took out that jealousy on me.”
The crowd show their agreement with Bryan by repeatedly chanting “YES” again.
Damien Sandow: “An interesting point Daniel, a very interesting point. Now if I may I would like to refer back to what I previously mentioned; your announcement regarding your Money In The Bank contract for a WWE Championship Match. Last night you claimed that you would not cash in your contract until Wrestlemania XXX, regardless of who the Champion may be. This may be rude of me to say but I don’t believe you.”
Sandow is instantly overwhelmed by boos when he says this but he does his best to ignore them as he continues.
Damien Sandow: “I do not mean to be rude Daniel but it is hard for me to believe this claim you have made given that you made the same promise two years ago and did not stick to it. Please enlighten me Daniel, why should the WWE Universe believe you this time around?”
Daniel Bryan: “Damien I’m not going to force you to trust every word I say. Sure, I got greedy last time and I cashed in at the first opportunity but look how that reign ended. I lost the World Heavyweight Championship in 18 seconds at Wrestlemania 28 and it felt like a kick in the teeth. I had worked my ass off day and night to keep that World Championship and then it was just taken from me in the blink of an eye. That was due to greed. I don’t make the same mistake twice so when I say I am going to wait until Wrestlemania XXX to cash in I mean it. I’m not going to tell the same lie twice, I just don’t see the point in that. I have the patience now that I didn’t have before. I am willing to wait almost a year to cash in because I understand what that moment will mean. That moment will be history. Nobody has ever cashed in at Wrestlemania before and I want to be the first to do it. I want to be remembered for big moments and I can’t think of a better moment to be remembered for than being the first ever WWE Superstar to cash in Money In The Bank in the Main Event of Wrestlemania and walk out with the WWE Championship around my waist.”
Sandow goes to carry on but stops as the crowd erupt into another “YES” chant.
Damien Sandow: “The final point which I wish to bring up is the Main Event from Summerslam last night. Now I am sure that you were watching just as intently if not more intently than the rest of us last night. Were you surprised by the result? And how serious do you think John Cena’s injury is?”
Daniel Bryan: “Yeah I was sat backstage with a bunch of the guys watching this match and we were all loving it, you know. The brutality of a Steel Cage Match is always good to watch especially with a guy like Mark Henry in there. I was a bit surprised with Mark managing to pull out the win but you knew that the odds were stacked against John going into the match given that the only way to win was by escaping the cage and Mark is a hard guy to escape from. I’m not going to lie, when John hit Mark with the AA I thought that was it. It just felt like John had accomplished everything he wanted to in that match by proving Mark wrong and getting him up and then back down for the AA. But the mistake that John made was choosing to climb the cage rather than walk out the door, especially with his elbow already banged up going into the match. It did seem to me that John was struggling with his shoulder as well as his elbow by the end of the match and I’m putting that down to the AA. Judging by John backstage with Cody earlier it would seem as though he has severely injured himself so I do think it will be interesting to see if he is going to be out on the shelf for a while and, if so, how long it will be.”
Damien Sandow: “Thank you Daniel for such an insightful interview.”
Sandow gets to his feet and extends his hand to Bryan, who stands up and shakes his hand before Sandow turns to the camera.
Damien Sandow: “Please join me again next week when I will joined by the man of much discussion over the past two days, Chris Jericho!”
There is a mixture of both cheers and boos at the announcement of Jericho. Sandow turns and leaves the ring as the scene fades.

We come back live on RAW with Daniel Bryan standing in the now cleared ring. Rob Van Dam makes his way out to massive cheers from the crowd. RVD is slow in his movements as he makes his way down the ramp, clearly slightly banged up from his match last night. RVD reaches the bottom of the ramp and gets in the ring, ready to compete.
Daniel Bryan .versus. Rob Van Dam
//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Bryan runs off the ropes and ducks underneath RVD as he leapfrogs over him. Both men run off opposite ropes and come back on the rebound with a clothesline to one another, grounding both men. The referee instantly begins his ten count for the two men. When the referee reaches five, both men begin to stir on the mat. Both men get to their feet when the referee reaches eight and begin to trade right hands. Bryan takes control with a kick to the leg that takes RVD down to his knees. Bryan then begins to unload on RVD with kick after kick to the chest. Bryan goes to finish things off with a big kick to the head but RVD ducks underneath and gets Bryan in the role up for the 1..2.REVERSAL! Bryan turns things around and gets RVD’s arm trapped in his legs before hooking his hands in front of RVD’s face, getting the Yes Lock locked in. RVD struggles for a few moments, trying to get to the ropes but he eventually gives in and taps out.
DING! DING! DING!
Bryan releases his grip on RVD and gets to his feet as he is announced as the winner. Bryan begins to repeatedly thrust his arms in the air while screaming out “YES” along with the crowd. Suddenly, Chris Jericho comes charging down the ramp and slides in the ring behind Bryan. Bryan senses something is wrong and turns to investigate, turning right into a massive Codebreaker. Jericho jumps back to his feet and stands over Bryan with a look of disgust on his face. A small grin creeps onto Jericho’s face before he turns and leaves the ring, leaving Bryan down in the middle of the ring.

JBL stands in his new office in a different suit from earlier, clearly having been changed after competing in his other suit earlier. JBL turns as he hears the door opening behind him and a big grin spreads across his face as John Cena walks in sporting his sling. The two men shake hands and embrace a little before Cena speaks to JBL.
John Cena: “A wrestling God. That’s what you used to call yourself right? You definitely should everyone that you still got it in you earlier. Congratulations by the way, who’d have thought that back at Wrestlemania 21 you’d be the RAW General Manager. We’ve come a long way since then, it’s been a rollercoaster of eight years. You’ll do a good job as GM and I look forward to seeing what you got up your sleeve. Good luck Bradshaw, you’re going to need it.”
Cena gives JBL the same sad smile he gave Rhodes earlier before slapping him on the shoulder and leaving the office. JBL looks after Cena with a concerned look on his face, with the scene fading after a minute or so.

YOU CAN’T SEE ME, MY TIME IS NOW!
A massive mixture of cheers and boos goes up from the crowd as John Cena walks out onto the stage in a slower fashion than usual due to him wearing he sling. Cena looks out to the crowd before saluting them and slowly walking down the ramp. Cena reaches the bottom and walks up the steps before getting inside the ring. Cena looks around at the capacity crowd before walking over to the side of the ring and being handed a microphone. Cena walks over to the centre of the ring and looks down in thought for a few moments before looking up and speaking.
John Cena: “Last night I lost my WWE Championship.”
A resounding cheer goes up from the crowd at this statement from Cena.
John Cena: “I backed myself into a corner in my match with Mark Henry last night when I decided to make our Steel Cage Match an escape only match. I allowed Mark Henry to get in my head regarding my struggle at hitting him with the Attitude Adjustment and because of that I put my body on the line last night to prove him wrong. Yes, I hit Mark Henry with the Attitude Adjustment. However, I not only aggravated my elbow injury in the process but I also tore the same pectoral muscle I tore back in 2007.”
The crowd continue to give a mixed reaction for Cena as he begins to reveal his injuries.
John Cena: “For those of you who remember that time you will remember that the projected rehabilitation time is 7 months. I was lucky at that time in my career that I was extremely fit and was able to shorten that 7 months to 4 months. Unfortunately that was 6 years ago and I have a second injury on top of the torn pectoral so chances are I will be out for the full 7 months.”
A large section of the crowd give a large cheer for this statement, with an equally large section booing it.
John Cena: “Since I am going to be taken a large amount of time off from the WWE, I am glad that it is Mark Henry who will be stepping into my shoes and leading the WWE as their Champion. Mark pushed me to my limit at both Money In The Bank and Summerslam and last night he was the better man so I am glad that it is him that I am leaving as WWE Champion.”
The fans boo at the mention of Henry, clearly not much happier with Henry as Champion than when Cena was Champion.
John Cena: “I am sending out a warning though. Whoever is WWE Champion when I come back better watch their back because I’m coming for them. I don’t care if it’s Mark Henry or Daniel Bryan or even-”
SIERRA! HOTEL! INDIA! ECHO! LIMA! DELTA! SHIELD!
The crowd jump to their feet, going crazy with cheers, as the familiar music of The Shield hits. Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns appear at the top of one flight of stairs while Kassius Ohno and Dean Ambrose appear at the next flight. Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose are all wearing their Championships over their shoulders as the four men make their way down the stairs. The four men reach the bottom and quickly hop over the barricade before surrounding the ring. Cena circles around in the ring, trying to keep an eye on all four men. The three men with Championships drop them on the ground while all four jump up onto the ring apron. Cena charges across at Reigns and hits him with his right hand but almost instantly the other three members of The Shield are in the ring and take Cena down to the mat like a pack of rabid wolves. The three men begin to hit Cena with forearm shots and knees before Reigns gets in the ring and joins in with the attack. They begin to beat away at Cena as the crowd cheer them on. Ambrose gets to his feet and signals for the fight to stop. Ambrose helps Ohno and Rollins in lifting Cena to his feet before allowing Reigns to take him out with a massive Spear. Reigns gets back to his feet and screams out as the other three members of The Shield grin down at their handiwork. All of a sudden the crowd start up a “WE WANT TABLES” chant and the four members look around at the crowd at this point, chuckling at them. The four men look from one another and shrug before all leaving the ring and checking under a separate apron. Reigns and Ohno both reappear from under the apron, pulling out a table each. The crowd give a massive pop as both men lift up the tables and slide them in the ring. All four Shield members get back in the ring and set up the first table near the centre of the ring. They then set up the second table before lifting it up and placing it on top of the first table. The crowd are sitting in anticipation as the four men lift up the lifeless Cena to his feet. Reigns releases his grip on Cena and leaves the other men holding him as he hops up onto the top rope. The other three men then lift Cena into the air and place him on the shoulders of Reigns. The crowd are on their feet as Reigns stands up on the second rope and jumps up into the air before bringing Cena crashing down through both tables with a Powerbomb. The crowd jump to their feet, giving a massive pop, as Cena crashes down on the mat. Ambrose, Ohno and Rollins help Reigns to his feet and the four men stand over the knocked out Cena as the scene fades.

RAW comes back on the air with Kassius Ohno still standing in the ring but the debris has now been cleared up and his three Shield cohorts are standing on the outside of the ring. Sheamus makes his way out next to massive cheers from the crowd. He stretches his arms out as he makes his way down the ramp before getting in the ring and standing opposite Ohno.

//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Sheamus stands in the corner, repeatedly hitting his chest over and over again to repeated “BROGUE” chants from the crowd. Ohno gets to his feet and Sheamus charges across at him for a Brogue Kick but Ohno ducks underneath and rolls over onto his feet before turning to stalk Sheamus. Sheamus turns around and Ohno goes for the KO, only for Sheamus to duck underneath the shot and use the momentum to get Ohno in position for the White Noise. Sheamus walks over to the centre of the ring and is about to go for the move when Ohno gets free and rolls up Sheamus for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
Ohno gets to his feet as the referee counts the three, picking up his first victory on RAW. Ohno raises his arm in the air as Sheamus gets up and stares over at him, frustrated. The other three members of The Shield hop up onto the apron so Sheamus quickly leaves the ring and heads backstage.

Cody Rhodes is walking down the corridor backstage in his ring gear and wearing his zip up vest with his World Heavyweight Championship around his waist. Rhodes turns a corner and starts heading up towards the stage entranceway when Dolph Ziggler walks over to him and blocks his path. Large cheers can be heard from the crowd as Ziggler and Rhodes both grin at each other and shake hands.
Dolph Ziggler: “It’s good to see someone other than Alberto with that Championship around their waist. Don’t get too used to it though Cody because after you’re done with Alberto tonight I am going to be fighting for a shot at Night Of Champions. You’re just keeping that warm for me Cody. Good luck tonight, though.”
Ziggler winks at Rhodes before barging passed him and walking off down the corridor.

SOMEBODY’S GONNA GET THEIR ASS KICKED!
Lilian Garcia: “Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome at this time, the NEWWWWW WWE Champion “The World’s Strongest Man” Mark Henry!”
There are massive boos from the capacity crowd here in Anaheim as Mark Henry slowly stalks out onto the stage with his WWE Championship over his shoulder. Henry stands on the stage sporting a new top that says “WORLD’S STRONGEST WWE CHAMPION” on the front and “THAT’S WHAT I DO” on the back. Henry slowly begins to walk down the ramp with a massive grin on his face as highlights of his victory over John Cena last night is shown on the titantron. When the highlights finish, Henry is standing in the ring with a microphone in his hand and a massive grin on his face.
Mark Henry: “Last night at Summerslam I proved what I have been saying all along; John Cena is nothing compared to me! People say that size doesn’t matter but last night I proved that it does. Last night John Cena tried to hit me with the AA and – after a lot of struggle – he finally managed it. Shame he tore two muscles in the process.”
The fans boo Henry as he laughs at his words.
Mark Henry: “I am the best the WWE has to offer and now I am where I should be; WWE Champion!”
The fans boo Henry as he lifts the WWE Championship in the air with a massive grin on his face.
LOOK IN MY EYES, WHAT DO YOU SEE? THE CULT OF PERSONALITY!
There is a massive pop from the crowd as CM Punk walks out onto the stage with a slight limp to his step. Punk looks around at the cheering crowd as he makes his way down the stage, holding onto his side a few times whilst wincing with pain; clearly still feeling the effects of his Falls Count Anywhere Match last night. Punk walks up the steps and picks up a microphone before stepping into the ring. Punk stands over at the ropes, leaning against them as he speaks to an angry looking Henry.
CM Punk: “Mark let me just stop you right there. First of all, well done to defeating an injured John Cena last night. Now for the reason I am out here. You see I was sitting backstage just outside the curtain hoping that Paul Heyman would walk by when I heard what you just said. You said that you were the best that the WWE has to offer but you are wrong. I am the best in the world!”
The fans cheer Punk the moment he says this, whilst Henry continues to glare over at him.
CM Punk: “You also said that size matters when it comes to becoming WWE Champion but once again your idiotic brain is wrong. Mark you remember at the beginning of last year when you first started chasing the WWE Championship? I defeated you on more than one occasion so why don’t you just tell me exactly how size matters!”
Punk stands up straight and walks a couple of steps closer as the crowd give him another pop.
Mark Henry: “You got lucky Punk, just like you got lucky last night against Ryback. I beat Ryback at Wrestlemania Punk and I beat John Cena last night to win the WWE Championship. If we faced off again right now then I’d beat you as well then you would know that size matters!”
CM Punk: “Mark, you’re probably right. If we had a match right now then you would win because that’s your speciality, isn’t it – beating injured guys? You know what though, if we waited until – say – September 15th then I think I’d be fit enough to fight you. In fact, I’d be fit enough to beat you.”
The fans cheer on as Punk walks up to Henry and looks directly into his eyes. The two stare at each other for a few moments before Henry begins to laugh at him.
Mark Henry: “I beat John Cena last night, why would I face a guy who is half my size as my first challenger? No Punk, why don’t you go fight mini Curt.”
Henry continues to laugh at Punk as he shoves passed Cena and goes to step out of the ring.
LONGHORN!
The fans jump to their feet in cheers as the music of the new RAW General Manager hits. JBL walks out onto the stage in his suit and hat with a massive grin on his face. He stops on the stage and looks down at the ring with Henry standing on the outside and Punk standing on the inside.
JBL: “Gentlemen enough of this bickering. As the General Manager of Monday night RAW it is up to me to make matches such as this for Pay-Per-Views. In the past many General Managers have given the Superstars free reign to decide on their own matches but this won’t be happening with me in charge. Mark, you don’t get to say no to CM Punk. I do.”
The fans begin to boo JBL, while Mark chuckles at Punk – who is looking extremely annoyed.
JBL: “I could so no but I’m not going to. You see last night CM Punk got a big victory over Ryback in a Falls Count Anywhere Match so, in my eyes, I would say he has done more than enough to deserve a shot at the WWE Championship. So at Night Of Champions it is going to be CM Punk going one on one with Mark Henry for the WWE Championship!”
A massive pop goes up from the crowd as Henry begins to flip out on the outside of the ring. Henry stands at the bottom of the ramp, shouting up at JBL as he turns and heads backstage. Henry turns around and goes to walk back towards the ring when Punk comes out of nowhere and takes out Henry with a big suicide dive. Punk gets back to his feet holding his side as the crowd give him massive cheers. Punk picks up Henry’s WWE Championship and slides back in the ring with it before standing up tall and raising the belt in the air as the camera fades.

An ambulance is in the parking lot with the lights flashing and the sirens blaring and with the back doors open. A commotion can be heard behind the camera so it turns to show WWE medics along with paramedics running towards the ambulance with someone on a stretcher. As the stretcher gets closer to the camera, it is revealed to be John Cena on it – still unconscious and wearing a neck brace and sling. The paramedics get Cena in the back of the ambulance before shutting the doors and getting in to drive off.

//CLOSING MOMENTS\\
Rhodes jumps off the ropes and comes back for the Disaster Kick but Del Rio ducks underneath, causing Rhodes to have to land on his feet. Rhodes stumbles a little and turns back around to Del Rio, who grabs onto his right arm and hits the double knee armbreaker. Rhodes writhes on the mat in pain after the impact of the move – especially after Del Rio targeting that arm throughout the match. Del Rio gets back to his feet and looks out to the crowd with an extremely determined look in his eyes. He turns and watches Rhodes as he begins rising, repeatedly slapping his wrist. Rhodes gets up and Del Rio instantly grabs his arm before going for the Cross Armbreaker. Rhodes manages to block the move and pulls his arm free before grabbing Del Rio from behind. Rhodes pulls Del Rio’s head down and screams out to the crowd before nailing the Cross Rhodes. Ricardo goes crazy on the outside as Rhodes drops down on top of Del Rio and hooks the leg for the 1..2..3!
DING! DING! DING!
The crowd go wild with cheers as Rhodes picks up the victory. Rhodes gets to his feet and the referee raises his arm in the air as Lilian announces him as the winner. Rhodes takes his Championship from the referee before raising it in the air with both hands. Suddenly, Rhodes is taken down by a massive shot to the back of the head. The camera quickly zooms out to show Chris Jericho standing over Rhodes. He grabs him by the head and pulls him to his feet before quickly taking him back down with a big Codebreaker. Jericho gets back to his feet and looks down at Rhodes as the crowd drown him in boos. Jericho reaches down and grabs the World Heavyweight Championship before raising it in the air above the fallen Rhodes as RAW goes off the air.
