Night Raw
Date: September 21, 2015
Location: Laredo Energy Arena, Laredo, Texas
Commentators: Michael Cole, John Bradshaw Layfield, Byron Saxton
Lucha Dragons/Neville vs. Ascension/Stardust
Back with Neville in the wrong corner with Konor being launched at him for two. Off to the chinlockery for a bit before Stardust puts Neville into an inverted Gory Stretch of all things. Neville finally kicks Konor in the head and makes the tag off to Kalisto. Everything breaks down with Cara running back in for a suicide dive on Konor. Stardust gets dropkicked to the floor and the Salida Del Sol pins Viktor at 10:32.
Stills of Kevin Owens winning the Intercontinental Title last night.
Ryback vs. Bo Dallas
Owens goes after Ryback post match but has to run away from a Shell Shock attempt.
Brie Bella vs. Charlotte
Sheamus vs. Mark Henry
New Day/Rusev vs. Dolph Ziggler/Dudley Boyz
Natalya vs. Naomi
Both girls flip up to their feet to start until Naomi kicks Natalya in the face for two. We hit an early chinlock as Paige is shown watching in the back. Back up and Natalya makes her comeback, including a discus lariat (Me: “JBL is going to say shades of her daddy.” JBL: “SHADES OF HER DADDY!”) but a Sasha distraction lets the Rear View end Natalya at 3:46.
Cesaro vs. Big Show
We recap the Wyatt Family/Orton/Ambrose/Reigns segment from earlier.
US Title: John Cena vs. Seth Rollins
Cena is defending. Rollins jumps the champ during the intros and gets an early two. Some right hands have Cena in trouble. Like, way more trouble than a sneak attack and some right hands should have him in. The Pedigree is countered and an enziguri gets two. Cena comes back with that big clothesline that he uses when he needs to make a comeback but the announcers are too busy talking about the Kane story to notice. Seth escapes the AA and scores with a DDT for two.
