Honda Center
Anaheim, California
19th August, 2013
We start with a video package from Summerslam. It starts with
Brock Lesnar and
CM Punk fighting in the ring, both in a lot of pain. Lesnar takes the advantage of Punk as his manager
Paul Heyman smiles on. The tables then turn as CM Punk regains control after hitting a diving elbow drop from the top of the announcers table. We then see Lesnar destroyed in the corner, then we go to Punk hitting Lesnar with a huge GTS! The referee begins to count 1...2...NO!
Paul Heyman saves Lesnar by breaking the pin. It then cuts to Lesnar hitting Punk with a F-5 right on the steel chair for the win. Punk gets up after his loss as Heyman is slowly making his way up the ramp in pain with Paul Heyman. It then shows
John Cena vs
Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship with
Triple H as the Special Guest Referee. Both begin to put on a hell of match, Daniel Bryan kicks out on AA by Cena.
Then Bryan hits Cena with a running knee as Triple H counts the pin 1...2...3! The crowd start to chant YES! as confetti begins to come out. Bryan's hand is raised up by Triple H before I Hear Voices In My Head is heard. Bryan gets ready as
Randy Orton starts to run down the ramp, Orton then stops before he gets in the ring and stares at Bryan.
Then suddenly Triple H hits Bryan with a Pedigree! Orton comes in the bell rings, Orton goes for the pin
1...2...3! Randy Orton is a seven time WWE Champion! The package then ends with a shot of Triple H lifting up the hand of the new WWE Champion, Randy Orton!
We then go to the arena as
Michael Cole welcomes us to Monday Night Raw!
''My Time Is Now'' hits as the arena fills with boos.
John Cena salutes the crowd before charging in the ring. Once he's in the ring he takes a moment to soak in the all too familiar mixed reaction. Cena says he's not pleased on what happened at the end of Summerslam. Daniel Bryan earned that title by beating him but Randy Orton swooped in and jacked it. Cena says that WWE superstars shouldn't be judged on their race, creed or looks they should be judged by their performance inside the ring.
Cena shows the camera his the buildup of fluid inside his elbow. He says that he wasn't fit for his WWE Championship match against Bryan but this isn't an excuse for his loss, the fact is that Daniel Bryan beat him clean and it was damn right unfair for
Triple H to hand the belt to Randy Orton. Cena says that he can't hold up his surgery no longer. He's got to have his surgery and he'll be gone for the next 4-6 months. Cena says that he loves the crowd and he'll never give up on them despite their boos. But right now it's not his time it's time for the real WWE Champion, the man that the crowd want, the man that thw WWE Universe want and that guy is Daniel Bryan!
Daniel Bryan’s music hits and the crowd cheers as he makes his way down to the ring. Cena nods to Bryan and heads out of the ring to embark on his leave of absence. Bryan says that whatever happened last night to him and the people was injustice! He won the WWE Championship fair and square and he was ready to face Orton in another match but he was cheated after Triple H took him out with a Pedigree! Now because of him he's no longer the WWE Champion! Bryan says that Triple H used to be one of those rebels and he was the leader of DX! But now he's completely changed he's got some wacko haircut and he's completely different, he's an opposite to what he used to be! No one in this crowd, not him and not even his best friend
Shawn Michaels has respect for Triple H! Bryan does not care if his actions will make them fire him then if anything they should ddo it. Bryan threatens to go back to wrestling in small arenas! He threatens to work in a company with a little IMPACT! And make them a company which WWE could never be!
Then before Bryan could say anything else
Stephanie McMahon makes her way out. She says that no one wants to fire Bryan. She says that not everyone can be the face of the company. She says that Bryan isn't the A standard he's the B+ standard! Bryan says he's no longer a mid-carder he's won the United States Championship! Bryan begins to get pumped up as the crowd chant YES! Stephanie says that Bryan should go to Dr Shelby again and take some anger management classes. Bryan snatches Stephanie's microphone and throws it out. Stephanie grabs another one and says Bryan is getting a little too angry and needs to be removed from the buidling. Six security guards begin to storm out, Bryan grabs a steel chair and begins to hit the guards one by one. Before you know it all 6 guards are down and Bryan's the only one standing. Bryan turns around the other way and makes his way out from the back as the crowd chant YES!
As we return
Cody Rhodes and
Smackdown's Mr Money in the Bank Damien Sandow are engaged in their match. Both are still banged up from their match last night. Rhodes has the control at the start but loses it as Sandow takes control with a huge clothsline. But in the end after ducking from a big boot by Sandow in the corner,
Rhodes got the win after a quick Cross Rhodes. Rhodes after the match celebrates his victory over Sandow once more before exiting.
As we return to Raw,
Divas Champion AJ Lee and her friend
Layla are skipping their way down the ramp for some Divas Tag Team action. After them
Natalya makes her way out to a lot of cheers from the crowd. Then her partner for the match
Kaitlyn makes her way out to a very warm welcome from the California crowd. The match is started with the team of AJ Lee and Layla in control. But after Natalya ducks a spin kick she quickly takes down Layla thus taking control. In the end Natalya had Layla set for Sharpshooter but AJ made the save and broke the submission hold.
But Kaitlyn took care of AJ by taking her out with a huge Spear. Then Natalya go the win by making Layla tap out.
We return with
Dolph Ziggler getting in the ring for his 3 on 1 handicap match against The Shield.
''Special Op'' hits as the
Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins make their way out from the back entrance. Dolph Ziggler looks nervous as the 3 champions slide into the ring. Ziggler was put in this match due to his remarks on what Randy Orton and Triple H done at Summerslam. Ziggler gets the beating at the start but soon after he turns the tables and begins gaining momentum. When it looked like Ziggler could get the shock win after a Zig Zag to Seth Rollins, quickly
from behind Roman Reigns destroyed him with a Spear for the victory. After the win Dean Ambrose started taunting Ziggler he started asking Ziggler to show off. He then knocks Ziggler's head to the side with his foot.
We return with some action as
World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio is in some action against
Yoshi Tatsu. Del Rio from the beginning proves too strong for Tatsu.
After a couple of minutes he makes Tatsu tap out wildly with a Cross Arm Breaker. After the bell rang, Del Rio still had Tatsu locked up, the referee threatend to reverse the decision if Del Rio didn't let go. At the note he let's go and quickly grabs a microphone. Del Rio says that he wants to represent and be a hero for all Mexicans. He says that from this day on it's time for a new Alberto Del Rio! It's time for a more ruthless Alberto Del Rio and a certainly more dominant Alberto Del Rio! And he doesn't need Ricardo Rodriguez for that!
Tons of Funk and The Funkadactyls are dancing in the ring as we return from the break. Then out come
The Prime Time Players to a suprisingly warm welcome from the crowd. The match is back and forth with both teams getting a chunk of control. In the end when it looked like Tons of Funk could steal the win with Brodus Clay set for a Splat! in the corner, Titus O'Neil quickly moved out of the way.
Brodus Clay met the turnbuckles with impact and O'Neil took advantage of the situation and rolled up Clay for the victory.
Some pictures are shown from Summerslam showing Triple H ready to hit Bryan with a Pedigree and Randy Orton pinning Bryan. It ends with Orton lifting his title in the air.
''Awesome'' hits as
The Miz makes his way out to a mixed reaction.
''Rebel Son'' hits as
Wade Barrett comes out. Both have a good fight at the start Barrett gains control but soon Miz turns the tables. But Miz gets highly distracted when
''ChaChaLaLa'' hits.
Fandango and Summer Rae start to dance on the ramp which clearly has caught Miz's attention.
As Miz turns around he is hit with a huge Bull Hammer which gives Barrett the victory. Fandango then quickly leaps on the top rope and hits a Diving Leg Drop. Then Fandango and Summer Rae dance over the fallen body of The Miz.
We then go backstage where
GM Brad Maddox is discussing the issue about Daniel Bryan with
Stephanie McMahon. Maddox says that Bryan has been causing quite a lot of destruction backstage by destroying merchandise tables and destroying advertisements with Triple H on them. He says that he's sent guards to get Bryan but he's still got no news on whether they were succesfull catching him. Stephanie says not to worry as they've got guards surrounding the ring and an Enforcer during Orton's Championship Coronation!
''Cult Of Personality'' hits in the arena and as CM Punk hobbles down to the ring. Punk says that at Summerslam he had one hell of a match with
Brock Lesnar and that match had a lot on stake for him! In that match he had to prove that he's The Best In The World and he's not afraid for Brock Lesnar! Punk says that in that match he had the match done he hit Lesnar with a GTS, he was about to win but Paul Heyman interferred. All that show's him is that Lesnar won cheap and in truth things between him and Lesnar aren't over! Punk then turns over and calls out a fan that is booing. He tells the fan that they can boo but he dares them to get into the ring, Punk is fired up as the crowd roar with approval. Punk says that if the fatso has balls then he should get in this ring otherwise he should stay on his seat like a bitch! Punk is fired up! Punk says he's pissed off from last night and if anything he doesn't want to deal with a fat member of the crowd in this ring! The person he wants in this ring is Brock Lesnar! He want's Lesnar once more!
Paul Heyman comes out on the ramp with
Curtis Axel in Axel's hand is a steel chair. Punk says that he's sorry he hurt Heyman's arm instead he should've of ripped it off, kicked his face off and give him a hard kick in his balls! Punk says that no matter what Heyman throws at him may it be Brock Lesnar or Curtis Axel he'll get to him and make him pay! Punk says if Heyman has the guts he should get in this ring at this moment and fight him! The crowd is roaring with cheers! Heyman says that Punk shouldn't be saying sorry he should! He is sorry for what he's going to do to him right now! Heyman drops the microphone and tells Axel to get Punk and give him a beating he'll never forget! Axel quickly sprints down as Punk takes his off his hoodie! Axel tries to hit Punk with the chair but Punk ducks and hits a superkick causing the chair to smack on Axel's face.
