Raw Deal - Raw recap for June 22, 2015

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman start the show. After getting us up to speed on how and why Brock Lesnar was suspended and disappeared for a while, it is announced by Heyman that Brock Lesnar has to apologize to Michael Cole or else he won't get his title shot against Seth Rollins and he won't be allowed to return to the WWE. Brock Lesnar leaves the room and stares at an uncomfortable Michael Cole from across the commentary table. Byron Saxton moves away as Lesnar then shakes hands with JBL and gives Cole a noogie. Brock then returns to the ring. After this, Heyman apologizes to Seth Rollins in advance for what Lesnar will do to him at Battleground.



Kane beats Dean Ambrose after the distraction and interference from Seth Rollins.



Seth Rollins talks to Kane backstage, trying to bury the hatchet with him, but Kane knows that Rollins wants his help against Brock Lesnar.

Titus O'Neil accepts his award for Celebrity Mega Dad of the Year.



The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) get their rematch for the WWE Tag Team Championships against The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) at Battleground.

The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) beat The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor).



As Roman Reigns takes on Sheamus, Bray Wyatt shows up seated near a table with a toy tea set, pretending to talk to Reigns' daughter. Roman heads to the back to look for Bray. It is then revealed that Bray was talking to an empty rocking chair.



Roman Reigns finds Bray Wyatt in a dimly lit room...or so he thinks. The table is there, but not Bray Wyatt. There are photos on Roman on the wall with the eyes and mouth removed, and on the wall are the words "Anyone but you."

Seth Rollins runs into J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) and tries to do with them what he did with Kane earlier tonight. They don't want anything to do with him, either.

John Cena appeared on Today earlier in the day to talk about Tough Enough.

Neville beats Kofi Kingston after The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil), Big E and Xavier Woods are all tossed out of ringside by the official.



The show in Japan, now called The Beast In The East: Live From Tokyo, is this Saturday at 5:30 am/4:30 am Central on WWE Network.

King Barrett beats Zack Ryder.



Michael Cole interviewed Kevin Owens. Owens takes John Cena extending his hand and telling him that he deserves to be in the main roster as an insult.

John Cena shows up. He gets us up to speed on his war with Kevin Owens, and calls him a dirtbag who is unworthy of the United States title, and says that even if he's against the ropes and in a fight he cannot win with Owens, he will not give up. Kevin Owens shows up and admits he doesn't care what anyone thinks of him, and gloats in French that he will win the rubber match at Battleground. Cena tells Owens that nobody likes him because he's a "disrespectful suckbag," and accepts Kevin Owens' challenge at Battleground with the United States title on the line.



Seth Rollins tells Triple H and Stephanie McMahon that he's tried to extend the olive branch to Kane and J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury), but Triple H knows he's doing this because Brock Lesnar is back. Triple H says a smart man should always walk into the ring with a Plan B, and says that if he wants the band back together, he should apologize to them in the ring. Stephanie agrees.

The Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella) beat Naomi and Tamina after they trick Naomi into accidentally hitting Tamina with the Rear View.



Big Show guests on commentary for the next match.

Ryback beats "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry with a splash from the top rope. After the match, Big Show looks down at Mark Henry in a disappointed mood. He pushes Henry down before leaving the ring.



Jojo interviews Ryback. He'll take on all challengers for the Intercontinental Championship, which he'll defend in a Triple Threat Match at Battleground. He also says that his parents got back together for the first time in 15 years to see him defend the title. Suddenly, Big Show shows up and tries to get to Ryback, which culminates in a brawl where Ryback sends Show to the floor and tells him he's not so big now.



Dolph Ziggler beats Adam Rose. After the match, Rusev loses it after seeing Lana and Ziggler kiss, and throws his crutches around, which causes him to fall down and hurt his ankle again. Summer Rae shows up, gives him one of his crutches, then leaves.



Triple H and Stephanie McMahon ask Kane and J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) to hear Seth Rollins out as he clearly wants their support now that Brock Lesnar has returned.

Seth Rollins shows up to apologize to Kane and J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury), and asks them to come to the ring so he can apologize to them individually, which they do. Rollins tells them this has to do with them and not about Brock Lesnar. Brock Lesnar shows up after Rollins apologizes to them, and when Lesnar jumps onto the apron, Kane and J&J Security leave him high and dry...almost. They fight Lesnar off at the last minute, and Rollins and Kane eventually get the upper hand and neutralize Lesnar, and Joey Mercury eventually joins in. Rollins finishes Lesnar off with a Pedigree.
