Raw Deal - Raw recap for August 10, 2015

Seth Rollins shows up to welcome us all to "Monday Night Rollins" to start the show. He makes fun of John Cena, then makes a reference to the "Straight Outta" meme that has hit the Internet recently by saying that Cena is "straight outta action." He says that if Cena wants to forfeit the WWE United States Championship to him, he can, so he can hold the United States and World Heavyweight titles at the same time. He also makes fun of John Cena's appearance on Tough Enough tomorrow night, saying Cena isn't tough enough to take him on. He then finds out from ring crew that John Cena is here tonight...via satellite. Cena's face, complete with broken nose, shows up on the TitanTron. However, it's all a trick, as Seth Rollins' mouth is on top of Cena's and it is Rollins' voice that makes fun of Cena and makes him look like a weakling. As Rollins talks to "Cena," Cesaro shows up and interrupts Rollins and challenges him to a match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. As Rollins asks Cesaro what he's done to deserve a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship, Kevin Owens shows up and says Cesaro has done nothing, makes fun of the "Cesaro Section" signs, and says that he himself has beaten John Cena while Rollins has tapped out to him. Shortly afterwards, Randy Orton shows up and says he's deserving of a World Heavyweight title shot as well. Rollins tells all three of them they're getting nothing, says they're all deaf and dumb, and tells them to get out of his ring. Triple H shows up after this, and says Cena's status for SummerSlam is 50/50. He makes a Triple Threat Match for tonight - Owens vs. Cesaro vs. Orton - and the winner gets a shot at Rollins and the World Heavyweight Championship.



The Submission Sorority (Paige, Charlotte, Becky Lynch) - now known as Team PCB after the first initials of the three members - guest on commentary for the next match.

Team Bella (Brie and Nikki Bella, Alicia Fox) beat Team B.A.D. (Naomi, Tamina Snuka, Sasha Banks). After the match, both teams brawl, and Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte, Becky Lynch) gets in on the action. Team PCB stands tall in the end.



The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E) beat Los Matadores (Fernando and Diego).



The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) find out they're facing The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil), Los Matadores (Fernando and Diego) and The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) for the tag team titles at SummerSlam.

Triple H has to get Seth Rollins to stop complaining backstage again, this time concerning the World Heavyweight title match, and tells him he has to put up every single night.

Randy Orton beats Cesaro and Kevin Owens to get a shot at Seth Rollins and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship later tonight.



Dean Ambrose considers Roman Reigns the first real friend he's ever had, and the both of them consider themselves truer family than Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper will ever be.

We get a special look at Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker.



Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker meet one last time before SummerSlam next week on Raw.

Luke Harper beats Dean Ambrose in a chaotic match which also sees Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt going at it.



It's time for Miz TV. Miz introduces Stephen Amell to the crowd, and tells him to call him when Stardust gets done with him so he can teach him how to act. He then introduces tonight's guest: Daniel Bryan. After some clowning around, Miz wants to talk about how he made Daniel Bryan, but D-Bry tells him not to take credit for making him, as he did all this himself. Miz also talks about D-Bry being on the shelf, and D-Bry mentions his recently released autobiography and his role on Tough Enough. Miz then asks D-Bry if Big Show should retire. Big Show shows up and says tells the WWE Universe that if they want him retired, they'd better find somebody who will retire him. All of a sudden, Ryback's music hits...and Ryback has officially returned. Ryback and Big Show stare down, and Daniel Bryan tosses Miz in-between them. All three men go at it, but Ryback easily puts Show and Miz away. Ryback then fells Miz once and for all with a Meat Hook.



Lana guests on commentary for the next match. She says that Dolph Ziggler is quickly getting better and will be back after SummerSlam.

Rusev vs. "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry ends when Lana and Summer Rae fight each other again. This time around, however, Summer Rae attacks Lana and tortures her with her own version of the Accolade. When the Bulgarian flag comes down, Rusev's photo is on it.



Neville quickly beats King Barrett, then Stardust immediately attacks Neville. He then stares down with Stephen Amell before shoving him. Amell jumps the barricade and goes after Stardust. Security holds Amell back, and Barrett has to get Stardust out of there. Neville shakes hands with Amell afterward.



Triple H has Neville and Stephen Amell with security backstage. Amell makes it perfectly clear he wants Stardust at SummerSlam, and Neville wants it to be a tag team match against King Barrett and Stardust. Triple H makes it official.



Jojo interviews Sheamus. He doesn't know who to root for, but in the end, he knows he'll be WWE World Heavyweight Champion in the end.

Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship ends when Sheamus interferes. Sheamus attacks Orton and Brogue Kicks Rollins, but Orton ends Sheamus' attempt to cash in his Money In The Bank Briefcase.



Here are the top 10 moments from tonight's show!

  1. This is totally killing me. How do you have your Champion lid out at the end of the show with Randy Orton on top? The fed Rollins to the Randy and Sheamus feud. WTF
