Night Raw
Date: June 6, 2016
Location: Chesapeake Energy Arena, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Commentators: Michael Cole, John Bradshaw Layfield, Byron Saxton
Cesaro vs. Chris Jericho
Jericho grabs a wristlock to start but Cesaro keeps nipping up, befuzzling Jericho so much that he can just stand there watching. Cesaro powerslams Jericho for two before the big uppercut knocks Jericho outside. Jericho dropkicks him out of the air though and we take a break less than three minutes in.
We look back at AJ attacking Cena last week.
Quick tribute to Muhammad Ali.
Rusev vs. Jack Swagger
Vaudevillains vs. Enzo Amore/Big Cass
Cass beats up Gotch as well.
Teddy Long comes in to see Stephanie and gets on her nerves. His idea is a four way for the Tag Team Titles at Money in the Bank with New Day defending against the Club, the Vaudevillains and Enzo/Cass. Stephanie throws him out and then calls marketing to make the match.
Alberto Del Rio vs. Sami Zayn
Dean Ambrose vs. Kevin Owens
Post match Dean gets a ladder but Owens shoves it over.
Bob Backlund/Darren Young video from Smackdown with Backlund taking his car keys and telling him to walk eight hours to the next town.
The Shining Stars brag about some drink from Puerto Rico.
Tyler Breeze vs. R-Truth
We get a long tribute to Muhammad Ali and his connections to wrestling, including emulating Gorgeous George and throwing punches at Gorilla Monsoon, who put him in the airplane spin. Of course the big moment was Ali refereeing the main event of the first Wrestlemania, even though it was just a glorified cameo. The video gets a standing ovation.
The Club vs. New Day

Cesaro b. Chris Jericho – Sharpshooter
Rusev b. Jack Swagger via countout
Alberto Del Rio b. Sami Zayn – Top rope double stomp
