You can make your own opportunities, or one can fall into your lap. I mentioned eventually I’ll get my wwe rematch. That triggered some stars in the back- braun says me want title shot first, then orton slithers his way out, I kept my mouth shut, pearce walked out, made a threeway number one contender match. I earned my shot, beat two of the best, I stand here number one contender. Or you make your own. They decided to make an example out of Drew last week. They’re not the mastermind, it’s MVP. I have more questions than answers. Are they gonna take off those masks, wear the suits. Maybe MVP will wear a mask to cover his ugly mug. When I get my hands on them, maybe I’ll get my retribution.
MVP interrupts.
You expect me to address these ridiculous allegations? YOu weren’t expecting T-Bar and Mace to attack you last week. Maybe expect the unexpected. Congrats on your victory last week, but Lashley is gonna put you to sleep at Backlash.
Drew: You gonna look me in the eye and tell me you had nothing to do with that attack?
MVP: Lashley makes the decisions. REcently he decided to downsize the HB. Why would we recruit those guys to attack you when he has already proven he can beat you by yourself?
Drew: He did it before.
MVP: EMphatically, Mace and T-Bar have zero affiliation with the Hurt Business. Look in the mirror, I saw you challenge the locker room to a fight. Maybe the chickens are coming to roost.
Drew: Maybe it was a huge coincidence that you came out when I was attacked. But maybe, you and I can talk-- Mace and T-Bar attack again. DOuble chokeslam, they walk past MVP.
At Gorilla, T-Bar and Mace list off some extinct animals, they say that’s what they plan to do to Drew.
Backstage, Drew demands a match from Pearce, he says you can’t take them on yourself, you need a partner. Drew says make the match happen or you’ll regret it.
Ex-Hurt Business vs. War Radiers again
Different match, same result. War Raiders with with Viking Express?
Orton says No one will see the Fiend again as long as I’m around? Now I have to wait for Backlash to see who the victor is- Riddle comes through, says congrats, you are the viper, the apex predator, what does that even mean? SInce you don’t have a title, I don’t have a title, we could make a team called RKBRO. Randy walks away.
Orton backstage asks Pearce for something, I couldn’t hear, oh its a riddle match
Charlotte promo:
She calls the women in the back rats and fake. She had a mania match taken away from her. So what, Rhea beat Asuka, I can beat them both in the same night. Thats why they call me the opportunity. I respect Asuka, doesn’t mean I have to like her and tonight I’m gonna remind her how much I don’t like her. Asuka interrupts. Rhea comes out too. Oh dear, Charlotte slow loud talks Asuka. Asuka say I WILL BEAT YOU BITCH!
Backstage, Riddle blasts past Orton before their match
Randy Orton vs. Riddle
Riddle keeps going for the sleeper, eventually they go to the outside and Orton dumps him on the table

Oh wow Riddle countered the RKO into a roll up for 3

**3/4
Alexa and Louie on swings
Lemme tell you something about louie. We’ve been best friends for a very long time. One time we were on a playground and there was a little girl being mean to me, she said I couldn’t have a bite of her ice cream cone. I shoved that bitch off the swing, then I got to eat all her ice cream. That was fun. When the teachers asked me why I did that. I told them the truth. Louie made me do it. They thought I was bonkers, but when Lilly doesn’t like something, she’ll let you know. All the little girls on the raw roster, lilly didn’t like HIM and lilly doesn’t like any of you.
Mandy and Dana are asked if their actions are appropriate. THey say they are not the bullies, NIa and Shayna are. Nia rolls up, Shayna stops her, rips into her for being distracted, Shayna says you better pay attention or else. Garza comes up to Nia and asks what she sees in that circus clown Reginald.
Drew vs. Mace/T-Bar
I think Mace and T-Bar have REtribution music
I sorta stopped paying attention, Braun comes down when T-Bar and Mace get the upper hand in the corner on Drew
Now it’s
Braun/Drew vs. T-Bar/Mace
TOwards the finish, Drew takes Mace’s mask off. Drew slaps the SHIT out of Mace with his mask, then continues to pound on him, earning T-Bar and Mace the DQ win. Braun rips off T-Bar’s mask, they leave, defiant with the DQ win.
Damian Priest vs. Miz
Priest basically dominates Miz, Maryse tries to distract again, another rollup, but Priest gets out, ear clap, Lights Out for Priest
**½
Sheamus open challenge
Promo: I’m gonna be champion for a long time. How’d you do it? I didn’t do it by being a nice fella, or making reckless decisions. I’m gonna be YOUR fightin champion. I’m gonna issue an open challenge each week on Raw, or whenever I want.
Humberto Carillo answers it. During his entrance, Sheamus attacks. Sheamus isn’t even in his gear for that matter. Sheamus WRECKS him on the outside before the bell. Yells at him, hopefully it’s more for Carillo, he looks great.
