“Then. Now. Forever.”January 20th 2013The New Age Outlaws defeated The Usos in a fantastic match which saw the New Age Outlaws make their return on old school RAW, sparking a massive pop from the crowd. The finish saw Billy Gunn hit Jey with the Fameasser for the three count. 21:17~A limousine pulls up outside in the parking area, bringing the crowd to the edge of their seats in anticipation of the legend who is about to step out of it. Triple H walks over to the back of the limousine and opens the door, revealing the “Nature Boy” Ric Flair. There are massive “WOO” chants coming from the crowd as Flair steps out and embraces Triple H. The two have a brief private conversation before Triple H welcomes him to the show and the two make their way inside.~A video airs in classic Wyatt Family style, with Bray swinging on his rocking chair while Harper and Rowan stand behind him. Bray is talking about how last week he done the devil’s bidding when he and his brothers brought his wrath of fury down upon The Shield. Bray claims that they have followed the wrong path and now it is down to the devil to put them straight. Bray chuckles to himself and tells The Shield that he will be seeing them at Royal Rumble.~Randy Orton is in the ring, staring at Christian as he makes his way out onto the stage for their match. Christian stops on the stage and gets a microphone, telling Randy that he got himself a little back up tonight.YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME!The crowd are going crazy as smoke begins to blow out onto the stage. Edge runs out from behind the smoke to a massive ovation from the sold out crowd in Dayton, Ohio. He runs from each edge of the stage to the other before making his way down the ramp with Christian.Randy Orton defeated Christian after taking him out with the RKO, much to the chagrin of Edge. 15:41Following the match, Edge gets in the ring to check on his best friend. Orton is about to leave the ring when he notices Edge, prompting him to change his mind. Edge gets to his feet and Orton walks over to him, with a massive smirk on his face.TRUST ME!The crowd go insane as Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts slowly walks out onto the stage with a yellow sack slung over his shoulder. The Viper stares up the ramp in shock as The Snake walks down the ramp with a massive grin on his face. Jake reaches the ring and throws the sack under the bottom rope before climbing the steps and standing on the apron, staring in at Orton. Edge spins Orton around and slaps him hard across the face, giving Jake time to get in the ring. The moment Orton spins back around, Jake kicks him in the midsection before nailing him with a DDT. The crowd cheer Jake on as he gets to his feet and picks up his sack. The crowd are on their feet as the now what is coming next. Jake walks over to Orton, who is laying on his back, before tipping the sack over and emptying the “new and improved Damien” on top of Orton. The snake slithers over him as Jake’s music hits once again, and he continues to torment Orton with Damien as Edge and Christian slap hands with him.~Stephanie McMahon appears on the titantron and informs the crowd that the next matchup is going to determine who will face AJ at the Royal Rumble for the Divas Championship.~Tamina w/ Lita defeated Natalya w/ Trish Stratus to become the #1 Contender to the Divas Championship at the Royal Rumble. We got a big surprise when Trish Stratus made her return to accompany Natalya to the ring, and just as big a surprise when Lita made her way out with Tamina. The finish saw Lita and Trish trading blows on the outside while Tamina hit Natalya with the Samoan Drop to get the three count. 9:32~HOT ROD!The crowd go crazy as Roddy Piper walks out onto the stage. He has a massive grin on his face as he makes his way down the ramp and gets in the ring, where the setup for Piper’s Pit has been placed. Piper gets on the microphone and says that tonight RAW goes old school and nobody can go old school as good as the Hot Rod. Piper stops for a moment and says that what he just said was a lie because there was one person who could do Old School better than him and that person was the greatest female wrestler to ever step foot in the ring, Mae Young. Piper says that the wrestling world suffered a truly horrible loss this past week when the longest living wrestler in the world passed on. Piper thanks Mae on behalf of everyone in the WWE Universe and says he hopes she is up there with The Fabulous Moolah looking down on all of us tonight. Piper blows a kiss to the Heavens. Piper then says he has a special guest tonight who knew Mae very well. However, before this guest is able to come out Piper is rudely interrupted.SIERRA! HOTEL! INDIA! ECHO! LIMA! DELTA! SHIELD!The crowd begin to boo as the three members of The Shield make their way out through the crowd. The three men reach the bottom and surround the ring, stalking Piper.WOOOO!The crowd erupt into cheers as Ric Flair and Arn Anderson jog out onto the stage. They make their way down the ramp before getting in the ring and standing by the side of Piper. The three men stare out at The Shield as the crowd repeatedly chant “YES”. Brad Maddox comes out to massive boos from the crowd, and tells the men to just calm down. Brad says that if they want to fight then they will, as tonight’s Main Event is going to be Dean Ambrose going one on one with Roddy Piper.~Daniel Bryan defeated Curtis Axel after taking him out with a Running Knee. 20:45GONG! GONG! GONG! GONG!The capacity crowd are going nuts as the familiar music of The Undertaker hits, just at the moment that the lights in the arena go out. Undertaker’s titantron begins to play and smoke bellows out from the stage down the ramp and around the ring, as Undertaker slowly walks out onto the stage. He makes his slow entrance down the ramp before walking up the steps and entering the ring. Undertaker enters the ring and walks over to Bryan, staring right into his eyes, with Bryan returning his stare with a determination mixed with fear. Undertaker raises his right hand to his throat and does his signature taunt to Bryan before the lights suddenly go out. After a few moments, the lights go back on and Undertaker has disappeared. Bryan stands in complete shock in the ring as the crowd chant “YES” over and over again.~The New Age Outlaws join Renee Young backstage, discussing their victory earlier this evening over the WWE Tag Team Champions, The Usos. Renee asks them if this victory has sparked something in them to chase after the coveted gold in one last run in the WWE. The two men laugh off the comment made by Renee and leave with a rather mysterious comment: “this is not the last you will see of The New Age Outlaws in 2014”.~Mark Henry comes down to the ring and lays out a challenge to any current WWE Superstar in the back to a “Royal Rumble Challenge” – basically an over the top rope challenge.GOD SAVE OUR QUEEN!The crowd boo Wade Barrett as he comes out to the ring, the first to answer the challenge made by Henry. Barrett gets in the ring and instantly lays into Henry with rights and lefts. Barrett’s blows have a minimal effect on Henry and the big man soon shoves Barrett away from him before clotheslining him over the top rope.REALEZA!Alberto Del Rio runs out to big boos from the crowd, just like Barrett. Del Rio gets in and goes for an enzeguir on Henry but Henry ducks underneath before springing back up and getting Del Rio up in his arms. Henry then walks over to the ropes and dumps Del Rio over the top, stepping back and shouting “this is too easy” as he does so.MEAT ON THE TABLE!A grin spreads across the face of Henry as his biggest challenge yet in Ryback makes his way out onto the stage. Ryback returns the grin to Henry as he swaggers down the ramp and gets in the ring. The two big men go at it in the ring, trading blows and each trying to tip the other to the outside. This goes on for a couple of minutes before Henry is finally able to clothesline Ryback over the top rope.LA VITORIA E MIA! E MIA!There is a massive pop from the crowd as Santino Marella rushes out onto the stage, as Henry begins to laugh. Santino runs down the ramp and gets in the ring, only for Henry to dump him back out to the outside – shades of when Santino became the quickest elimination in Rumble history a few years back.WELL IT’S THE BIG SHOW!Big Show comes storming out onto the stage to big cheers from the crowd. He runs down the ramp and gets in the ring, instantly trading blows with Henry. Show goes for the KO Punch but Henry ducks underneath and uses the momentum to lift Show into the air and tipping him over the top rope to the outside.WE’RE GONNA RIP IT UP!There are massive boos from the crowd as the newest member of The Authority, Brodus Clay, walks out onto the stage. Clay screams down at Henry before running down the ramp and sliding in the ring. Clay and Henry go back and forth for a good couple of minutes before Clay finally lifts Henry off his feet and dumps him to the outside. The crowd give Clay a big pop as he overpowers the big man before beginning to scream out to the crowd that he is going to win the Royal Rumble.~CM Punk comes out to a large amount of cheers from the crowd. As he makes his way down the ramp a replay of his words last week concerning confronting Kevin Nash tonight is shown on the titantron. Punk gets in the ring and gets straight to the point, calling out Nash.ROCKHOUSE!There is a mixed reaction from the crowd as Kevin Nash slowly walks out with a grin on his face. Nash slowly makes his way down the ramp before getting in the ring and grabbing a mic. Nash asks Punk why he wants him out here, to which Punk promptly replies. Punk tells Nash to think back to the Summer of 2011 – back when CM Punk was on the rise within the WWE. Punk says that at Summerslam that year Kevin Nash cost Punk the WWE Championship for no apparent reason. Punk tells Nash that for the last two and a half years he has wondered why Nash would “text himself” to attack Punk and that it just doesn’t make sense. Punk says he wants to clear this up and tells Nash to lay it out for him right now, so that he can finally put this to rest. Nash stalls for a few moments, looking around at the crowd as they continue to both cheer and boo for him. Nash then finally speaks and tells Punk that he lied. He lied to everyone back then and he says that he knows Punk already knew that. Nash claims that the night of Summerslam 2011 he received a text from Triple H asking him to attack CM Punk, so he did. Triple H later asked Nash to cover for him because he didn’t want to be perceived as the bad guy but Nash says that none of that matters now. Punk gives Nash a small grin and says “oh but it does” before springing up and hitting Nash over the head with the microphone. Nash stumbles back into the ropes and Punk charges over for the knee to the jaw before allowing Nash to fall into his arms, getting him up on his shoulders. Punk then quickly hits him with the GTS which sends Nash down to the mat. The crowd are on their feet for Punk as Nash rolls out of the ring, allowing a ringside medic to run over and check on him. Punk gets on the microphone once again and says that tonight has proved what he has been saying all along – the stem of all of his problems since day one in the WWE is Triple H. Punk goes on to say that he is tired of sending cryptic messages and now wants to make one thing abundantly clear – Triple H is his target and sooner or later he is going to get his hands on him.~Roddy Piper is sat on a bench in the locker room, taping up his wrists in preparation of his upcoming match. Ric Flair and Arn Anderson stand beside him, trying to get him hyped up for the match. Piper jumps up to his feet, seemingly unaware of Flair and Anderson even talking to him, and grabs a coconut (which was so conveniently sitting there) and slams it over his head before walking out of the locker room, screaming out as he does so. Flair and Anderson look to one another and just shrug their shoulders before following after Piper.~Dean Ambrose versus Roddy Piper ended in a No Contest when a brawl erupted between the six men involved.The strength of The Shield soon overcomes the legends, with Rollins and Reigns backing Flair and Anderson into opposite corners respectively while Ambrose stomps away on Piper on the ground.WHEN IT COMES CRASHING DOWN AND IT HURTS INSIDE!The crowd go absolutely insane as the familiar music of the Hulkamaniac hits. After a few moments, in which time the three members of The Shield have turned their attention towards the entranceway, the legend himself Hulk Hogan walks out onto the stage. The roar from the crowd nearly blows the roof off the place as Hulk Hogan stands on the stage, looking around at the crowd with a massive grin on his face. Hogan finally looks down at The Shield in the ring and dramatically points at them, causing another uproar from the crowd. Hogan marches down the ramp, shouting abuse at The Shield on his way. Hogan reaches the ring and gets up on the apron, staring in at the men inside. They are so focused on Hogan that they do not notice the three men behind them get back to their feet. Anderson is the first to make a move, spinning Reigns around before lifting him into the air and nailing him with a Spinebuster, before kicking him out of the ring. Almost simultaneously, Flair spins Rollins around and hits him with multiple chops to the chest before grabbing him by the head and tossing him over the top rope to the outside. This leaves Ambrose all alone in the ring with now four men. He looks from one to the other, not sure of what to do. Eventually he turns and goes for Piper, only to be met with a poke to the eyes. Ambrose spins round, clutching at his eyes, allowing Hogan to lay him out with a big boot to the face. Hogan then looks around at the screaming crowd before doing his signature hand-to-ear taunt to each side of the ring. He then runs off the ropes and comes back with a big Leg Drop to a massive ovation from the crowd. Hogan gets back to his feet and celebrates his return with the other three legends. They continue this as the crowd cheer them on as RAW goes off the air.

Then. Now. Forever.Royal Rumble comes on the air with ‘We Own It’ 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 Daniel Bryan and The Shield/The Wyatt Family. 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: “Ladies and Gentlemen the following Tag Team Match is set for one fall and it is for the WWE Tag Team Championships!”GOLD & SMOKE!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first, the Challengers, at a combined weight of 452lb, Cody Rhodes & Goldust!”There are large cheers from the crowd as the familiar music of the former WWE Tag Team Champions hits. A gold light sets around the arena as the two brothers walk out onto the stage; Goldust in his wig and robe and Cody Rhodes in his sleeveless jacket. The two men shake hands at the top of the ramp before slowly proceeding down, slapping hands with the crowd on their way. They reach the ring and hop up onto the apron before stepping in the ring. The two men climb to adjacent second ropes and shout out to cheering crowd. Goldust takes off his wig and robe and throw them to the outside while Rhodes takes off his jacket and tosses it out as well.I’M ON TOP!Justin Roberts: “Introducing their opponents at a combined weight of 479lb, they are the current WWE Tag Team Champions, Jimmy and Jey, The Usos!”The crowd give a massive pop as Jimmy and Jey come out onto the stage and perform the Siva Tau. Once they are finished, their music kicks in and the two brothers make their way down the ramp, slapping hands with the crowd on their way. The two men do a small dance around to opposite sides of the ring before sliding in and getting to their feet. The two take off their Championships and raise them into the air before turning and handing them over to the referee.The Rhodes Brothers .versus. The Usos © ~ WWE Tag Team ChampionshipsThe two teams of brothers stand opposite each other in the ring, discussing amongst themselves who is going to start this one out. Jimmy and Goldust both step out onto the apron, leaving Jey and Cody to get things started. The two men meat in the middle of the ring and shake hands before instantly locking up. Jey gets control and gets Cody into a headlock before flipping him over onto his back and putting even more pressure on his head and neck. Cody is able to get himself free and jumps to his feet before Jey, allowing him to catch the Champion with a kick on his way back to his feet. Jey falls back down to the mat and Rhodes drops to his knees to unload on Jey with rights and lefts to the body and head, ensuring that he will stay grounded. Cody grabs Jey by the wrist and drags him across to the corner before tagging in Goldust. Goldust steps into the ring and stomps at Jey’s chest until the referee begins his five count for the onslaught against the ropes. Goldust steps back and waits for Jey to get back to his feet before pulling him over to the centre of the ring. Goldust throws Jey’s arm over his head for a suplex but before he is able to lift him into the air, Jey hits him with right hand after right hand to the abdomen, causing him to release his grip. Goldust doubles over a little and Jey catches him with a hard right hand across the jaw, sending him back against the ropes. Jey runs across at Goldust and hits him with a clothesline which sends him over the top rope to the outside. Jey instantly falls into his corner and tags in Jimmy, while Goldust begins getting back to his feet on the outside. Jimmy watches Goldust and waits for him to get up before running off the ropes and flying over the top rope to the outside, hitting Goldust with a crossbody. The crowd give a massive pop as both men sprawl out on the floor, with Goldust falling hard into the ring barricade. Jimmy gets to his feet and shouts out “UCE” to the crowd, to which they reply “O”. He does this a few times before finally turning back to Goldust and helping him to his feet. He is quick to throw Goldust back in the ring, following in after him and making the cover for the 1..2KICKOUT! Jimmy gets back to his feet and wastes no time in getting Goldust back to his feet. He shoves his opponent into the corner before charging across at him and squashing him against the turnbuckles. Jimmy takes a few steps back and waits for Goldust to stumble forward before hoisting him up onto his shoulders and nailing a Samoan drop. Jimmy jumps back to his feet and looks around at the crowd, getting them on their feet. He begins ascending the ropes, getting to the top before diving down for a leg drop on Goldust. Goldust is able to move out of the way at the last minute and Jimmy collides with the mat hard. Goldust rolls onto his back and begins to repeatedly slam his fists down on the mat, getting the crowd to mimic this sound – getting his adrenaline pumping. He begins to crawl over to the ropes as Jimmy begins pulling himself to his feet using the ropes for leverage. Jimmy gets to his feet just as Goldust gets the tag to Cody, sparking a big pop from the crowd. Jimmy begins running over toward the corner but Cody jumps up onto the top rope and springboards in with a dropkick to the head of Jimmy. Cody jumps to his feet, running on adrenaline now. He runs across at Jey and knocks him off the apron with a forearm shot to the head, before turning and watching as Jimmy gets back to his feet. The moment Jimmy is up, Cody charges across at jumps up at the ropes before coming back for the Disaster Kick, only for Jimmy to duck underneath. Cody lands on his feet behind Jimmy and turns into a big Superkick, sending him down to the mat. Jimmy falls down to the mat after hitting Cody, leaving both legal men down in the middle of the ring. Jey climbs back up onto the apron as the two men inside the ring begin crawling to their respective corners, with the crowd getting behind both of them. The two men finally reach their corners and tag in their brothers. Jey and Goldust both charge into the ring and meet in the centre, instantly beginning to trade rights and lefts. Goldust gains control and backs Jey into the ropes before tossing him across the ring. Goldust catches him on the rebound with a big snap suplex, which he quickly turns into a pinfall attempt. Jey is able to get his shoulder up just after the count of two, causing Goldust to throw his arms up in dismay. Goldust climbs back to his feet and leans against the ropes, with his back to Jey. Jey takes advantage of this and rolls up Goldust for the 1..2.. Cody breaks it up! Cody is able to break up the pinfall attempt just before the referee counts the three! He begins pulling Jey to his feet but the moment Jey is up, he grabs Cody by the head and tosses him to the outside. Goldust tries to seize his opportunity and makes to grab Jey from behind, but he is met with a stiff elbow. Goldust stumbles back and turns around, straight into a massive Superkick from Jimmy. Goldust hits the mat, landing on his back, as Jimmy drops down and rolls out onto the apron. Jey looks around at the crowd as they are on their feet, unsure of whether to cheer or boo. He walks over to the corner and slowly ascends the ropes before diving down with a massive Splash from the top rope. Jey quickly hooks the leg of Goldust as the referee drops down to count the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winners of this match and STILL the WWE Tag Team Champions, The Usos!”The crowd give large cheers as The Usos are announced as the winners. Jey gets to his feet and is soon joined inside the ring by Jimmy, who is quick to embrace his brother. The referee hands both men their WWE Tag Team Championships, allowing them to raise them high in the air. The two men climb to adjacent second ropes and celebrate with their Championships before dropping down and leaving the ring, as Cody gets back inside. The Usos back up the ramp while Cody stands above Goldust, shaking his head at his older brother. Goldust shrugs his shoulders at Cody and apologises but Cody just continues to shake his head, looking down at Goldust with a look of disappointment across his face.~Brad Maddox stands in his office backstage with Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Kane. The Authority are stood next to a table with a basket full of balls, which is being turned by Nikki Bella. Alberto Del Rio is first to walk in, looking extremely determined for the Royal Rumble Match. He walks straight over to Nikki and motions for her to stop spinning the basket. Nikki does so and opens it up for Del Rio to reach inside. He rummages about a little before pulling out a ball and looking at it. A slight grimace passes over his face but he promptly hides it as John Cena strolls into the office with a big grin on his face.John Cena: “Alberto, you little scum bag! How’d you do? Good? Bad? Okay, don’t tell me. Nikki, I think it’s time for you to give my balls a little shake.”Cena laughs a little, as does the crowd by the sounds of it. Nikki pouts at Cena before spinning the basket once again and opening it for Cena to reach inside. Cena pulls out a ball but doesn’t look at it, instead he covers it and turns to Del Rio.John Cena: “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours.”Cena laughs again at his immature joke, which receives an eye roll from everyone else in the office. Del Rio stares at Cena for a moment before nodding his head. Both men turn their balls to face the other, revealing that Del Rio has drew #3 while Cena has drew #1. Both men begin to laugh at the other, before Del Rio breaks the silence.Alberto Del Rio: “I’ll be seeing you out there perdedor.”Del Rio slaps Cena across the back and walks out of the office chuckling. Cena looks confused for a moment as he is yet to see his number, so he promptly turns the ball around to see and his face drops as he realises he will be the first entrant. Nikki walks over and tries to console Cena but he just stands there shocked while The Authority laugh at him.~Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen the following Six Man Tag Team Match is set for one fall!”SIERRA! HOTEL! INDIA! ECHO! LIMA! DELTA! SHIELD!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first at a combined weight of 707lb Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose, The Shield!”There are massive cheers, accompanied with boos, as the familiar music of The Shield hits. The camera cuts to the crowd just as all three members of The Shield walk out to the top of the steps. Dean Ambrose stands in the middle of Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns with his United States Championship over his shoulder. The three men look around at the fans with a look of distaste before slowly walking down the steps, one at a time. Ambrose reaches the bottom first and hops over the barricade, followed by Reigns and Rollins – with Rollins landing in a forward roll before getting back to his feet. The three men slide in the ring and get to their feet, looking out to the crowd, as they await their opponents.WE’RE HERE!Justin Roberts: “Introducing their opponents at a combined weight of 865lb Luke Harper, Erick Rowan and Bray Wyatt, The Wyatt Family!”The crowd once again burst into cheers as the lights in the arena go out. A light appears on the stage and the camera zooms in on it to reveal Bray Wyatt walking out holding a lantern in his hand, with Luke Harper and Erick Rowan following behind him. The three men slowly make their way down the ramp, all staring straight ahead at the ring. They stop at the bottom of the ramp and Wyatt takes a seat on his rocking chair. He looks towards The Shield and begins to laugh before picking the lantern up and blowing it out. When the lights come back on, Harper and Rowan are both stood in the ring, standing at the opposite side of the ring from The Shield.The Shield .versus. The Wyatt FamilyAs soon as the bell rings, Wyatt instructs Harper to start this match before he and Rowan step out onto the apron. The Shield then discuss this in their corner before making the decision for Reigns to start against Harper. Once we only have two men in the ring, the referee steps back and signals for the two of them to go at it. Both Harper and Reigns charge across at one another and go at it with rights and lefts to one another. Reigns takes control and backs Harper into the ropes before whipping him across the ring and catching him with a massive clothesline on the rebound that takes down the big man. Reigns screams out to the crowd as Harper rises back to his feet. Reigns grabs him by the head and goes to pull him over to his corner but Harper shoves him away before falling back and tagging in Rowan. Rowan steps in the ring and takes off his lamb mask before throwing it in the face of Reigns. This momentarily distracts Reigns, allowing Rowan to charge over at him and take him down with a massive big boot to the face. Rowan waits for Reigns to begin rising back to his feet before hitting him hard over the back with a clubbing blow that sends him sprawling back down to the mat. Rowan looks over to Bray for instructions but all Bray says is “hurt him”. A sadistic grin spreads across the face of Rowan as he begins to viciously stomp away at Reigns. After a few moments, Reigns manages to catch one of Rowan’s boots and throws his opponent back before finally getting back to his feet. Reigns gets up just in time to avoid another attack from Rowan, ducking underneath a clothesline and using his own momentum to propel him over the top rope to the outside. Reigns drops down to his knees and tries to catch his breath as Rowan hits the ground on the outside. Reigns gets back to his feet and stumbles over to his corner to get the tag to Ambrose. Ambrose gets in the ring and stands against the ropes, stalking Rowan as he rises on the outside. The moment Rowan is back on his feet, Ambrose charges across the ring and hits a suicide dive to the outside on Rowan. The crowd are on their feet as Ambrose gets up on the outside and screams out “believe in The Shield”. Ambrose turns and rolls back in the ring before getting to his feet and taunting Bray and Harper in the corner. Harper goes to charge in the ring but Bray stops him and tells him to stay calm. Ambrose smirks across at Harper but this goes to cost him as Rowan comes from out of nowhere and takes down Ambrose with a big clothesline. Rowan instantly makes the cover on Ambrose but only gets a two count before Ambrose gets his shoulder up. Rowan gets to his feet and pulls Ambrose up with him before dragging him over to the corner and tagging in Harper. Both Harper and Rowan begin to unload on Ambrose with punches, kicks, forearm shots, elbows and not stopping until the referee begins his five count. Rowan steps out of the ring while Harper pulls Ambrose into the centre of the ring and lifts him up into the air for a suplex. Harper holds him in the air for a few seconds before bringing him back down with a big suplex. Harper hooks the leg of Ambrose but once again only gets a two count. Harper gets to his feet, tugging at his hair in annoyance as his smaller opponent uses the ropes as leverage to pull him up to his feet. Harper walks over towards Ambrose but Ambrose waits for him to get close before kicking him hard in the knee, bringing him down to the ropes. Ambrose then unloads on the bigger man with rights and lefts to the head until he has him down on the mat. Ambrose then begins crawling over to his corner and gets the tag to Rollins, just as Harper tags in Rowan. Rollins waits for Rowan to make his way across the ring before hopping up onto the top rope and springboarding across with a knee to the head, taking down the big man. Rollins is running on adrenaline as he gets back to his feet and begins to unload on Rowan with repeated kicks to the sides and abdomen. Harper has enough and enters the ring to go after Rollins, only for Reigns to come out of nowhere and take out Harper with a massive Spear. Reigns gets to his feet, screaming at Harper as the crowd shower him in boos. Reigns turns to the crowd and begins to shout abuse at them when Rowan comes from behind and hits him hard over the back of the head, sending him down to the mat. Ambrose comes into the ring to blindside Rowan but Rowan sees him coming and takes him down with a boot to the face. The crowd are cheering on Rowan as he looks over at Bray, who is telling him to tag him in. Rowan walks over to the corner and tags in Bray, who enters the ring with a swagger to his step. He walks over to the rising Rollins, who had been knocked down by Rowan before the attack on Reigns. Bray begins to chuckle as he grabs Rollins by the hair and grins out to the crowd. Before Bray can do any damage, Rollins catches him off guard by jumping up and catching his opponent in the head with a big kick. Bray stumbles back and Rollins charges across at him for a kick to the head, only for Bray to duck underneath at the last minute. Rollins’ momentum causes him to collide with the turnbuckles before hitting the mat hard, causing the referee to rush over to check on him. Bray arches over and gets into a crab position, staring across at Rollins as he lies in pain on the ground. Bray throws himself back to his feet and Reigns comes out of nowhere for a Spear, only for Bray to jump into the air and leapfrog over the manoeuvre, causing Reigns to collide with Ambrose – who had been sneaking in behind Bray to attack him. Reigns gets back to his feet and stares down at Ambrose in shock, but he is given little time to do anything about it as Rowan comes inside the ring and grabs Reigns by the throat before taking him out with a big Chokeslam. Rowan kicks Reigns out of the ring and leaves after him to keep him down, leaving Bray to stalk the recovering Rollins. Rollins crawls over towards Bray and has clearly dazed himself from the impact of his collision in the corner. Bray waits for him to get up to his knees before grabbing him by the head and getting him in position for Sister Abigail. Bray has a sadistic grin on his face as he looks out to the crowd and he kisses Rollins and screams out “the devil made me do it” before nailing Rollins with Sister Abigail. Bray instantly makes the cover on Rollins and gets the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen, here are your winners, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Bray Wyatt – The Wyatt Family!”Bray slithers off of Rollins and slowly gets up to his knees. He spreads his arms out and throws his head back before screaming out “judgement day is almost upon us, the devil is coming back” before beginning to laugh hysterically. Bray eventually rolls out of the ring and slowly makes his way up with Rowan and Harper, still laughing as he does so. Back in the ring, Reigns has come back in to check on Rollins and is clearly still hurt himself after feeling the impact of a Chokeslam from Rowan. Reigns helps Rollins to his feet but almost the instant he is up, Ambrose comes charging into the ring and gets in the face of Reigns. Ambrose screams at him that he cost them the match after hitting him with a Spear and he just proved himself to be the weak link of The Shield. Reigns argues back, telling Ambrose he shouldn’t have come back in the ring because he clearly can’t handle fighting with the big boys. The two get right in each other’s faces to the point where their words are inaudible. Rollins tries to get the two of them to calm down but both men shove Rollins aside and continue their argument. Ambrose shoves Reigns away with one hand and tells him to get out of his face. This irks Reigns, leading him to quickly take down Ambrose with a big right hand. Ambrose quickly gets back to his feet and tackles Reigns down to the mat. The two begin to exchange blows as the crowd cheer them on, clearly loving the implosion which has been building for weeks. Rollins comes over and drags Ambrose to his feet but before he can try and restore some order, Ambrose slaps him across the face. Rollins goes to reply with a slap of his own but turns around as Reigns comes charging across at both men and takes them both down with a massive double Spear.

Tonight you finally get a fair shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, something which you have been waiting months for. How does it feel to finally have this shot?”Daniel Bryan: “Renee, it feels good. Since Summerslam Triple H has made sure that my life has been a living hell. Now I don’t know who it was who gave me the opportunity to get this match but I took it with both hands and now here I am ready for one more shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Randy has got nobody to help him tonight so there is not a chance in hell that I am leaving here tonight without a Championship around my waist. I guess if I were to sum this up in one word it would be: YES! YES! YES! YES!”Bryan repeatedly thrusts his arms in the air as he screams out “YES”, leading the crowd in the arena in this chant.~Justin Roberts: “The following match is set for one fall and it is for the WWE Divas Championship!”TA-MI-NA!Justin Roberts: “Introducing first, the Challenger, from the Pacific Islands, Tamina Snuka!”The fans give a relatively large amount of cheers as Tamina Snuka slowly walks out onto the stage.

She reaches the ring and hops up onto the apron before climbing to the second rope. She throws her arms up in the signature taunt of her father Jimmy Snuka, before dropping down inside the ring.LET’S LIGHT IT UP!Justin Roberts: “Introducing her opponent from Union City, New Jersey, she is the current WWE Divas Champion, AJ Lee!”AJ Lee skips out onto the stage with her Divas Championship around her waist, sparking much larger cheers compared to that which Tamina received.

Tamina stumbles back out of the corner and AJ goes for the quick rollup, getting a 1..2.KICKOUT! AJ almost catches Tamina by surprise but she is able to kick out just before the referee counts the three. AJ rushes back to her feet and begins to kick away at Tamina but she only manages to get two kicks before Tamina catches her leg. Tamina holds onto AJ’s leg with both hands as she slowly rises to her feet. She finally gets back up, still clutching AJ’s leg – causing the Divas Champion to balance on one leg. A massive grin spreads across Tamina’s face before she pulls AJ in and takes her down with a massive clothesline. Tamina gets a loud pop from the crowd as she drops down on top of AJ and makes the cover, only getting a one count. Tamina gets to her feet and begins pulling AJ to her feet but AJ wriggles free and quickly scurries to the outside. AJ snatches up her Divas Championship from ringside before running around the ring and backing up the ramp. She stops halfway and begins to laugh at Tamina, as she screams at her to get back in the ring. AJ just shakes her head and remains where she is until the referee reaches 10.DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winner of this match as a result of a count out, Tamina Snuka! However, STILL the WWE Diva-”WELCOME TO THE QUEENDOM!The crowd give a mixed reaction as Stephanie McMahon struts out onto the stage. She stops at the top of the ramp with a microphone in hand and demands that her music stops. AJ turns to face her, still in the middle of the ramp.Stephanie McMahon: “AJ, don’t you move another inch! Tonight we kick off the road to Wrestlemania and I will be damned if you are going to ruin what is sure to be a great night! We are not ending a Championship Match with a count out because the Champion was too scared to face her challenger. Therefore I am restarting this match as a No Count Out, No Disqualifcation Match!”Stephanie’s announcement garners a large cheer from the crowd, whilst also being met with a scream of disapproval from AJ. AJ isn’t given much time to complain about this as Tamina comes charging out of the ring and meets AJ halfway up the ramp, hitting her with right hand after right hand to the jaw. AJ stumbles down to one knee, prompting Tamina to grab her by the head and drag her back down to the ring. Tamina tosses her inside and slides in after her, completely unloading on the Divas Champion with rights and lefts. Tamina finally lets up and gives AJ one last kick before turning and stepping outside the ring. Tamina throws the apron up and looks under the ring, searching for something in particular. Finally, Tamina re-emerges from under the ring, pulling out a table with her. The fans give Tamina a massive pop as she lifts the table up and slides it inside the ring. She climbs back up onto the apron herself but before she is able to step inside, AJ runs over and catches her with a dropkick to the leg which causes her to hit her head hard off the apron. Tamina lands on her back on the outside, giving AJ some time to catch her breath. AJ begins climbing the turnbuckles in the corner, watching Tamina as she gets to her feet on her way. AJ reaches the top just as Tamina gets to her feet on the outside, with AJ instantly diving down and hitting Tamina with a crossbody. AJ rolls away from her opponent and uses the ring apron to help pull herself back to her feet. AJ leans against the apron, stalking Tamina as she begins getting to her feet. The moment Tamina gets up to one knee, AJ charges across and takes her out with a big Shining Wizard. AJ gets up to her knees and cocks her head to the side with a big grin on her face. AJ gets to her feet and uses all her strength to hoist Tamina to her feet and roll her opponent in the ring. AJ slides in after her and goes straight into the cover for the 1..2..KICKOUT! AJ can’t believe that Tamina managed to kick out, and she expresses this shock in the form of a scream directed at the referee. She gets up to her feet and begins screaming at the referee before turning and once again stalking Tamina. Tamina is slow in getting to her feet, clearly still hurt following the massive Shining Wizard from the Divas Champ. She finally gets to her feet and AJ charges at her, spinning around her head in the way she does to lock in the Black Widow. However, Tamina is able to use AJ’s own momentum to keep her spinning around until Tamina has her in position for the Samoan Drop, which she promptly connects with. Both women lay on the mat after receiving a massive pop from the crowd. Tamina crawls over to the ropes and pulls herself to her feet, trying to catch her breath. She looks over at AJ then looks down at the table laid out on the mat. A grin spreads across her face as the crowd begin to chant “we want tables” over and over again. Tamina picks up the table and kicks the legs out before setting it up a little bit in front of a corner. Tamina then walks over and begins dragging AJ to her feet but AJ catches Tamina with a slap which catches her off guard. AJ follows this up with a big superkick to Tamina, that causes her to fall down on top of the table, but not going through it. She uses all her strength to lift up Tamina and lay her out on the table. AJ stumbles over to the corner and begins to ascend the ropes, albeit she is much slower than usual due to the physicality of this match. By the time AJ gets to the top rope, Tamina is already back on her feet and she catches the Champion with a big right hand that nearly sends AJ toppling to the outside. Tamina climbs up after AJ and begins to hit her with right hand after right hand before she steps over the top rope so she is standing on the ropes outside of the ring. She balances herself over the ring post and spins AJ around before lifting her up onto her shoulders in a powerbomb position. The crowd are on their feet, cheering Tamina on as she positions herself on the top turnbuckle. Tamina stands up on the second rope but she must realise that won’t be enough and slowly steps up onto the top rope. She stands tall with AJ still on her shoulders, with every member of the crowd now on their feet. After a few moments of delicate balancing, Tamina leaps off the top rope and sends AJ crashing through the table with a Sitout Powerbomb. The crowd go crazy with “holy shit” chants as both women are down in the debris of the table. The referee rushes over to check on both of them but Tamina shoves him away and gets to her feet herself. Tamina points up to the Heavens, showing a sign of respect to Mae Young – as one of her most memorable moments was when she was put through a table off the stage by Bubba Ray Dudley in the same fashion. Tamina turns her attention back to AJ and drags her out of the debris into the centre of the ring before hooking her leg for the 1..2..3!DING! DING! DING!Justin Roberts: “The winner of this match and the NEEEEWWW WWE Divas Champion, Tamina Snuka!”The crowd are still on their feet, shocked at what just happened, as Tamina is announced the winner. She gets up to her feet and leans against the ropes as the referee walks over to hand her the Divas Championship. Tamina holds it in the air with one hand while the referee raises her other in victory. She continues to celebrate her victory as the crowd cheer her on, while the referee drops down to check on AJ.Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome at this time...”WHEN IT COMES CRASHING DOWN AND IT HURTS INSIDE!Justin Roberts: “... Hulk Hogan!”The crowd go crazy as the familiar music of the legend that is Hulk Hogan hits. Hogan walks out onto the stage wearing black jeans and a Hulkamania vest top. He has a massive grin on his face as he makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands with the crowd on his way. He reaches the ring and walks up the steps before entering the ring, walking over to the edge and being handed a microphone. He looks around at the screaming fans as he stands in the middle of the ring, the grin still yet to be wiped from his face. He does his signature hand to ear gesture at every side of the ring, getting a massive pop each time. Hogan looks around at the crowd and waits for his music to die down before finally speaking.Hulk Hogan: “It’s good to be back.”The crowd give a massive pop for this short statement.Hulk Hogan: “It has been over six years since I last stepped foot in a WWE ring, brother, but I’ll tell you when I came back on Monday it felt like I’d never been away.

Orton throws his arms back and screams out to the crowd as they reply with massive boos. Orton turns and grins at Bryan as he begins rising to his feet. Orton waits for Bryan to get up to one knee before grabbing him by the head and throwing him into the corner.

Bryan begins to nod over and over again, beginning to lead the crowd in another “YES” chant. Bryan gets to his feet, shaking his fists as the adrenaline pumps through him. Bryan backs himself into a corner and begins to repeatedly thrust his arms in the air, continuing the “YES” chant. Orton slowly rises to his feet, as every single member of the crowd throws their arms into the air while shouting out “YES” over and over again. Orton finally gets up and Bryan charges across at him for the Running Knee but Orton drops to the mat and Bryan just flies over the top of him. Bryan manages to turn himself in midair and lands on his front before pushing himself back to his feet. Bryan runs across at Orton but Orton avoids him once again but this time grabs Bryan while he still has his back to him and gets him in position for the inverted headlock backbreaker. Before he is able to hit Bryan with the move, Bryan gets his head free of Orton’s grasp – using the element of surprise to pull Orton down to the mat with his arm before locking in the Yes Lock. The crowd are on their feet, going crazy as Bryan has Orton locked into the hold in the centre of the ring. Orton tries using his free arm to release Bryan’s gripped hands but this is to no avail.
