Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 11, 2013

The show begins with a tribute to Undertaker's manager Paul Bearer, who passed away last week.



The Undertaker shows up. He is paying his respect to Paul Bearer when CM Punk spoils the whole thing with his entrance music. He sends his condolences to Undertaker for his loss...at WrestleMania.



During the break, Kane shows up and almost choke slams CM Punk. Punk escapes his grasp, and Kane is now in a frenzy as he voraciously searches for him!

Big Show takes on Seth Rollins, but it soon becomes a three-on-one attack where The Shield (Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns) triple powerbombs Show yet again.



CM Punk tells Raw General Manger Vicki Guerrero to put a leash on Kane...and gets a no-disqualification match against Kane tonight in return for disrespecting Paul Bearer's memory.

Paul Bearer memories: Paul Bearer's debut.

Dolph Ziggler beats Daniel Bryan, thanks to Big E Langston and AJ. Langston puts D-Bry out of his misery.



Paul Bearer memories: His appearance at WrestleMania XX!

Tensai is about to face Fandango, but Fandango won't show up. Tensai finally calls the guy out. Fandango shows up and says that both Tensai and Brodus Clay are a "disgrace to dancing." He wants Naomi to pronounce his name as "she's better than this," but Tensai won't let her. Fandango refuses to debut yet again.



Team Rhodes Scholars (Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes) do their own version of the New Age Outlaws ("Bad Ass" Billy Gunn and "Road Dogg" Jesse James) intro before their match.

As The New Age Outlaws ("Bad Ass" Billy Gunn and "Road Dogg" Jesse James) take on Team Rhodes Scholars (Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes), Brock Lesnar comes down to the ring with Paul Heyman. He destroys the Outlaws. Paul Heyman proclaims that Brock Lesnar accepts Triple H's challenge...but only if Lesnar and Heyman name the stipulation, which Triple H won't know until after he signs the contract for the match. If Triple H doesn't sign, he disappoints everyone.





"The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry destroys Kofi Kingston.



Cody Rhodes talks to Kaitlyn. Damien Sandow shows up and announces he has a more suitable date for Cody...and himself. Brie and Nikki Bella, the Bella Twins, are back! Vicki Guerrero shows up and tells Sandow and Rhodes that they have another match tonight against...Sheamus and Randy Orton.



Ryback squashes Heath Slater, then takes out Drew McIntyre when he enters the ring. Mark Henry, who watched the swift match from the entrance ramp enters the ring. He and Ryback take turns further destroying McIntyre before they stare each other down. Henry then leaves.



Alberto Del Rio beats Antonio Cesaro in a Champion vs. Champion match with the Cross Arm Breaker.



Josh Mathews interviews Kane, who has Paul Bearer's urn. He walks away without saying a word in a quiet rage.

Paul Bearer memories: Unleashing Kane at Bad Blood in 1997. Yep, that's right. Kane's WWE debut!

Randy Orton and Sheamus beat Team Rhodes Scholars (Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes).



The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) decimate Randy Orton and Sheamus after the break.

Chris Jericho makes his first appearance since Elimination Chamber with the Highlight Reel! His guests are The Miz (star of The Marine 3: Homefront) and Wade Barrett (who is in Dead Man Down). We see a preview of both films, and we see more of Barrett in the new Dead Man Down trailer. Miz and Wade argue, but Miz tells Wade he's lost a lot of matches lately and that it's only a matter of time before he loses the WWE Intercontinental Championship. They argue again, but Jericho butts in. Barrett tells Jericho to shut up, but Jericho tells Barrett he put him in the WWE, and he can take that belt and become a ten-time Intercontinental Champion. Brad Maddox, Vickie Guerrero's assistant, shows up and has an announcement: The Miz will take on Chris Jericho in a match, and the winner will take on Wade Barrett for the Intercontinental title on Raw next week!

Wade Barrett beats up The Miz and Chris Jericho after Jericho tosses Miz into Barrett...but both men team up and give Barrett a Skull Crushing Finale and a Codebreaker!



Paul Bearer moments: Paul Bearer, Mr. Fuji and Yokozuna's disappearance...and Mr. Fuji in a dress.



Before Jack Swagger takes on Sin Cara, Zeb Colter verbally destroys Sin Cara and Alberto Del Rio while he does the same to the fans.

Jack Swagger locks the Patriot Act on Sin Cara. He doesn't let go, and it takes Alberto Del Rio to save him. Zeb Colter has to drag Swagger away to get him out of the Cross Arm Breaker.



Kane beats CM Punk in a no-disqualification match as The Undertaker's music kicks in. 'Taker and Kane kneel down and face each other in a sign of tribute to Paul Bearer and as a sign of unity. Punk ruins it by taking the urn and hitting Kane in the back. When 'Taker enters the ring, CM Punk runs away with the urn and mocks 'Taker.





Oh, and this is so awkward it's actually hilarious.
