WWE Monday Night Raw 7/27/15…Summerslam Buildup Is Heating Up

We see the footage of last week when The Undertaker and Brock Lesnar had their epic brawl.

We are live in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  The Authority kick off the show.

HHH is here to make a massive announcement.  This year’s Summerslam will be bigger than ever, which makes this a 4-hour show.

And our main event will be 17 months in the making, The Undertaker Vs Brock Lesnar.

And tonight will be epic too, which for the first time ever, it will be The Big Show Vs Dean Ambrose.

The former Diva’s champion, Paige will go against the current NXT Divas Champion, “The Boss” Sasha Banks.

And it will be Kevin Owens Vs “The Viper” Randy Orton.

The Diva’s Revolution will continue when it’s Nikki Bella and Alicia Fox Vs Charlotte and Becky Lynch.

Seth Rollins is pumped up for this, Seth knows about many firsts, he was the first man who cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase at Wrestlemania, and became the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion, over Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns.

Rollins talks about doing what he said he would do, and walk out still WWE World Heavyweight Champion at Battleground, and he did.  So he needs the fans to stand up, and admit Seth Rollins could go down as one of the greatest WWE World Champions, of all time.

Enter John Cena.

Cena calls Rollins an arrogant jackass.  For all of the Hall of Famers that have the title, and Rollins proclaims himself as one of the greatest ever?

Cena thinks they should face each other one on one, and find out.

He is here to ask HHH and Stephanie McMahon, and this is about the first time ever.  So we need to see if Seth Rollins can be a man.  So he says we have Cena Vs Rollins, for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Seth asks John to do something for the first time ever, and shut the hell up.  This isn’t his cute United States Championship, this is THE WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Stephanie cuts him off, and wants to take this to the people.

Do they want to see Seth Rollins Vs John Cena, for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship?

The crowd wants it, and Stephanie says for the first time ever….NO!!!

Cena has to earn this title shot.

HHH brings up nobody wants to see the WWE World Heavyweight Championship defended on Raw.  But, it will be Seth Rollins Vs John Cena, but not for World Title, but rather for the US Heavyweight Championship.

That’s what’s best for business.

Tonight, it will be Orton Vs Owens.  It will also be Paige Vs Sasha Banks, and next, Big Show Vs Dean Ambrose.

Paige joins the Stone Cold Podcast, next Monday.

Now, that is cool.

Big Show wins the match by countout, Ambrose is knocked to the outside three times, but the third time was not the charm here.

After the match, Show charges in after Ambrose, but Dean played possum, and moved out-of-the-way, allowing Show to go through the barricade.

Cole, JBL, and Byron Saxton welcome us to the show, reminding us Summerslam will be a 4-hour spectacular, starting at 7:00 PM.

The Prodigal Son, Luke Harper returns to The Wyatt Family tonight.  Neville is in action, next.

Neville Vs Fandango, now.

Red Arrow, match is done.

Stardust is not impressed, as he appears on the Titantron.

Tonight, Orton Vs Owens.  Also tonight, Paige Vs Banks.  And tonight, Lucha Dragons Vs Los Matadores, Number One Contender to Tag Titles.  And, United States Championship is on the line, Cena Vs Rollins.

Divas segment here, The Diva’s Revolution is on fire, and it’s because of Team Paige.  But Team BAD disagrees.

Sasha reminds Paige she is NXT Women’s Champion, and Paige reminds her she is the first NXT Woman’s Champion, and a 2-time Divas Champion.  Becky Lynch stands up to her mate, and Tamina tries to go after Becky.

Action will take place, now.  Paige Vs Banks.

Sasha made a statement by making Paige tap out to The Bank Statement.

Tonight, United States Championship is on the line, with Cena Vs Rollins.

Renee Young is standing by with Seth Rollins.

He has a chance to walk out with 2 titles tonight.

Seth wants to know who was it that beat Brock and Reigns at Wrestlemania.  And who walked out of Battleground with the WWE World Title?  Seth Rollins.

People are critics when he is at the top.  He defends his championship against the top stars, and Cena defends his United States title against the rest.  We have seen Cena’s act, and it’s time that his run has passed him by.

You can pre-order WWE2K16, now with a playable character being The Terminator.

Rusev is in the ring, with Summer Rae.  He is smitten with her, and so he should show us how to treat a special woman.

A brand new puppy.

What is his name?  Dog Ziggler.

Rusev also has a headless fish, and we call her Lana.

Lana comes out, tells Summer Rae that he makes her dress like her, act like her, and when he kisses Summer Rae, he looks at Lana.

But as Summer puts it, why go to bed with someone like Lana, when he can go to bed with Summer.

Lana slaps her with the fish, and goes after her, and pounds on Rusev, walks out.

Moving on, we see a video of what took place last week, with Undertaker and Brock Lesnar.  Brock will return the next week.

But coming up next, Lucha Dragons Vs Los Matadores.

Lucha Dragons win with a rollup, and for whatever reason, New Day comes out to distract Primetime Players.

8 days ago at Battleground, Luke Harper came back home to Bray Wyatt.  The Prodigal Son returns home, next.

Bray Wyatt time.

Bray is guessing every one of us have a family, so do we care for them?  Do we hug them each and every day, and tell them this world is a paradise, and if they stay together, everything will be alright.  Our Mommies and Daddies have been lying to us every single day of our lives.

If they did love you, they would tell you the truth.  The world can be terrifying, and the worst thing is all we have to do is open our windows and see it right in front of us.

Our government, our schools try to protect us, but the ones who protect us can hurt us the most.  And if we see the truth, we can seek justice.

Bray had this pet, he had the ugliest face, and wanted to see what the other side of the woods looked like, so he removed his leash and set him free.  But he came right back to him, just like he knew he would.  But he noticed he had a scar, from his eye to his mouth, and was right by Bray’s side the rest of his life.

He knew one day he would have to set Luke Harper free one day, so he can learn the truth.

Harper has the mic.

He didn’t know why he existed one time, or why was he here.  But his family found him, and he showed him the truth.  This is our fault, we made Luke the man he is today.  We created Harper, but Bray saved him.

He showed Harper the truth, and knows that if we pray for the rain, we must get the mud.  Bray Wyatt, he would give his life for him.

It always comes back to family.  Luke would go through hell for Bray, he already has.  But Roman Reigns?  No, if he says Dean Ambrose is family, then he would tell Dean to stay out of his business, but he may already be dead, because he had already sealed his fate.

Roman Reigns, we’re here.  Follow The Buzzards.

Orton Vs Owens, for the first time ever.  Also tonight, Cena Vs Rollins for US Title.

Charlotte and Becky Vs Nikki and Alicia, now.

Becky and Charlotte win when Becky made Alicia Fox tap out to her Disarmer submission move.

NXT Divas are on a roll tonight.

WWE Tough Enough video from last week is being shown, with Patrick leaving.

8 competitors remain.

Team BAD will be on the show tomorrow.

Next, Owens Vs Orton.

Orton wins by DQ, when Sheamus attacks Orton, and here comes Cesaro to try to take care of Owens.

Cena is with Renee Young.  He does what he has to do tonight, and he will defend the US Title.  He will prove he is the better man.

This Thursday on Smackdown, Becky Lynch Vs Nikki Bella.

Cena Vs Rollins, US Title is up now.

Cena wins with a STF, and had a bloody nose, to boot.

So John retains his title, he makes Rollins tap, which means Seth should win their Summerslam match, right?

The show is over.

Kevin’s Thoughts:

This okay, but if you missed, you really didn’t miss much.  The Authority made this seem like a big deal tonight, but honestly, I think things will heat up next week.

No Taker, no Brock, no Heyman.  And while that is understandable, it’s also weird there was no Roman Reigns, when Dean Ambrose was there.

So, this show was meh, and if they are making Summerslam a must-see PPV, then they must make the Raw’s feel must-see too.

What did you think of the show?  Do you agree?  Disagree?  Sound off.
