We Stand Together
We kick off the show tonight as we pay tribute to the lives lost in the recent mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, our thoughts and prayers go out to the friends and familys who were effected by those terrible acts, may those who lost their lives rest peacefully.
....
After the raw intro, which hasnt been shown in ages it feels like, Samoa Joe interupts it standing on the announcers table, he says hes here to right a wrong, saying he didnt make that construction stuff to fall on roman, and had a fairly decent back and forth with the commentary team, we go to a replay of what had happened, he said there was more cameras then a dystopion thing, he says his good name is bismurched, and hes gonna wait all night until roman reigns gets here, only to be interupted by the man, Becky Lynch, as we get to our first match of the night.
Becky Lynch and Charlotee VS Trish Stratus and Natalya
Before we start we get confirmation that Becky vs Natalya at Summerslam will be a submission match
Becky and Natalya start off with some good back and forth, reversals counters into submissions and such, then charlotte tags herself in and dominates most of the match working over natalya, eventually becky tags herself back in only to get hit in the back by charlotte, who then proceeds to leave as natalya puts the sharpshooter on becky, becky gets to the ropes natalya doesnt break it and gets DQed, as natalya drags becky in the ring sharpshooter still hooked in Trish stops her natalya leaves, and thats that.
Next up after a recap of last weeks gauntlet we got rey in action next
Rey Mysterio vs Andrade
As always these two have a fantastic match, after knocking andrade to the outside rey flys threw the ropes and does a rolling powerbomb into the barricade, they do more great stuff, after alot of great stuff andrade tries to take reys mask off he fails, rey goes to the ropes to recover, vega attacks rey then andrade hits his finisher for the win.
The 24/7 Title Saga Continues!
We get a recap of what happened last week with the moshpit tag team match where truth retained, then it all led to Maria becoming champion
we got maria with her husband at the doctors apointment, maria tells mike that he has one job, protect their unborn child, protect her and protect the 24/7 title, he says he wont let her down as they go to the apointment, In said apointment mike tells her not to worry, he gives her a hug and a tap is heard 3 times, turns out the doctor was a female ref and mike pinned his wife for the title, gets a huge pop from the crowd, he escapes to the other room only to discover R Truth, whose water breaks he throws out a baby for mike to catch as R Truth pins mike to become 24/7 champion and escapes.
nexst we get a backstage promo from becky which is short and not note worthy, same for natalyas promo right afterward, but what is noteworthy is the fact Lesnar is here, and hes next.
Brock Lesnar and Paul heyman
Brock and Heyman make their way to the ring, he says brock instructed and ordered him to educate the fans both in the arena and at home. He says wasnt seth supposed to be the beast slayer? wasnt seth supposed to be the conqurers conqurer? the one who had brocks number? isnt he supposed to be the big hero for the new generation, isnt he supposed to be Seth Freaken Rollins. the answer to all of this lies in the footage of last week, because recaps.
We ofcourse get a recap of the beating seth took last week, still just as awesome. He says seths got more balls then brains, and that seths appearntly here, seths music hits and there he is, barely walking down the ramp steel chair in hand, useing it like a crutch. He gets in the ring, seth tries to hit Brock but lesnar easily kicks him first, crowd is silent as brock hits seth with the chair a few times, he picks seth up drives him into the corner, then does it again, crowd is dead silent for the most part, he pulls seths shirt off revealing his tapped up torso, seth tries to stand and brock just casually shoves him, Brock just toys with him for a bit.
Finally brock hits him with a F5, brock raises the title and leaves as we go to commercial.
As we come back appearntly seth hit another F5 before leaving, Seth is still in the ring recovering as he asks for a mic and cuts a pretty solid promo. He says its gotten to the point where hes had to ask himself if this was worth it, he says ya love somethin so much that youd do anything to protect it and keep it safe, even if the thing you love keeps you getting beat up week after week after week. he says for him the answer is yes, because this is all he is every second of every day, its all hes ever wanted, and all hes got and he will be at summerslam and he will beat Brock Lesnar. he guarnties it as the crowd chants Burn It Down.
He then walks on his own two feet as he leaves. We got interviwer lady backstage with none other then Kurt Angle, he says its great to be in his home town as the street profits show up to continue being awesome, drew interupts says its all really funny, he says he comes in peace to give kurt a reminder, about what happened last time they were in the ring together, how he tapped kurt out to his own ankle lock, a friendly reminder, and if kurt dosnt call it down the middle drew will kick kurts head in.
Next up, viking raiders vs local talent
The War Viking Raid Experience VS Random Local People
Same story as last week, nothing to see here.
In Memory of Harley Race
WWE then pays tribute to the late WWE Hall of Famer Harley Race, they play a lovely video package, may he rest in peace.
Cedric Alaxander VS Drew Mcintyre with Kurt Angle as Ref
Before Cedric could finish his entrace drew ambushes him and beats him up around the ring as kurt watches, slams him into the barricade here and there, Cedric knocks drew into the ring post and hits a tornado DDT to drew on the floor..but then the lights go out and here comes The Fiend, he uses the mandible claw on Kurt to lay him out, then does a kind of Roar as the spooky lighting cuts off, we hear the Bray Wyatt luagh as we go to commercial.
The New Day VS The O.C.
Next up we got The New Day Big E and Xavier Woods, The O.C. then comes out with Aj Styles, before the match can get underway properly Aj Styles immediately gets in the ring and starts helping the OC beat up New Day, then Ricochet comes out for the save, and now we got ourselves a 3 on 3 tag team match, which doesnt last too long, its a decent match with O.C. hitting the magic killer for the win.
samoa joe backstage, says hes gonna stop the show and demands an apoligy from roman, which is next.
Samoa Joe Demands An Apology
We get another recap of the incident last week where stuff fell on roman. Samoa Joe makes his way to the ring he gets a mic. He demands roman comes out gets out here and apoligizes to him, roman doesnt come out he grabs a chair puts it in the ring sets it up sits down, says raw is shut down until roman arrives, he sits and waits, and waits says hes got all night. Crowd chants CM Punk, then he talks to some worker who says Roman is here and in the parking lot, Joe says he aint waitng any longer and he goes backstage to find him, he makes his way outside, samoa joe goes up to roman and they start to have a war of words, roman see something and dives into his car as another car comes in from outta nowhere and smashes into romans car and we cut to commercial.
We come back and see what happened next, Joe actually showing sympathy for roman, telling him to stay down dont move as he calls for a medic, we cut to a bit later and now triple h is there instead of samoa joe for some reason, appearntly in that time no medics arrived.
Next up we got a fatal 4 way tag team match for the wwe womens tag team championships.
Kabuki Warriors VS Iconics VS Sonya and Mandy VS Alexa and Nikki. Fatal 4 Way tag Team Elimination match for the Womens Tag Team Championships.
After Corey Graves has multiple orgasms seeing both Mandy Rose and Alexa Bliss, we finally get this match underway, We start off with the iconics wrecking house on all three other teams, dominateing, mandy rose comes in sneak attacks the iconics and before ya know it, the iconics are elimanted, we will have new tag team champions, this just got good.
After a few tags we get some Sonya Deville vs Asuka action, these two could put on one hell of a match it seems, great stuff, espacially corey graves mention scurvy and kari zane, hilarious stuff even michael cole laughed a good bit, as did i, mandy hits a solid right to asuka as they double team asuka. Asuka and Mandy do some great stuff, Asuka puts Mandy in the asuka lock and taps out. Its now down to The Kabuki Warriors vs Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss. One of them will become tag team champions.
Bliss has asuka in the corner hitting her with various stomps keeping asuka in the corner controlling the ring, good stuff despite the slow pace the match has crawled to, asuka chants dureing a near fall, more working in the corner asuka starts to fight out hits a german suplex on nikki as she makes the hot tag to Kari Zane, Zane goes off on zlea and nikki, Asuka puts in the asulka lock but she rolls into a pin asuka kicks out she lays out alexa tags kari, kari goes up but nikki stops her, nikki takes out asuka and then Alexa goes up and hits twisted bliss for the win.
Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross are your new Tag Team Champions.
After a recap of the beating seth got earlier in the night, we got Miz coming out for the contract signing, which noteably is the final segment of the show.
MIZ TV: Miz vs Dolph Ziggler Summerslam Contract Signing
Miz kicks off Miz TV aswell as the contract signing by bringing in Shawn Michaels, shawn comes down like the star he is, then Miz brings out Dolph Ziggler. All three men are in the ring, Dolph says miz and shawn are ass kissers, he says hes been the best thing in pro wrestling since shawn lost his smile and miz lost his balls, he says when he wins he will get the appreciation he deserves by being a living breathing legend, he then signs the contract as miz says he cant wait to get his hands on ziggler next monday on raw, he says the contract ziggler signed wasnt to fight miz, they look at shawn, and shawn says it isnt him.
And then here comes Goldberg, he marches down to the ring and dolph quickly leaves as goldberg signs the contract, he grabs the mic and says Dolph Ziggler, guess what son, your next. And as dolph leaves in anger he gets some sweet chin music as the show goes off air.
...
