Show: I don't care that John L got fired. I don't care about him or you (BOOS). I only care about me. (You can't wrestle chant, and WHAT). Show says if we listened we wouldn't have to ask what.

He congratulates Cena for escaping the steel cage with the help of 6 other people.

"I'd crush him one on one. You know I'm telling the truth. I don't care about him anymore (Cena chant). I'm moving on. I'm throwing my hat into the Money in the Bank match. No man in that match or after can stop me. I'll be champ as long as I want to be. I'm not doing it for the locker room, WWE, or you. I'm doing it for me. It will be all mine."

Brodus Clay comes out. He gets a BIG pop coming out. Amazing. Show attacks him as he enters, but actually knocks him over. Otunga runs in and clips him from behind. Show measures Clay, who sells the knee, and kicks him in it. Somebody call his momma. Show boots him in the gut. Another, "You can't wrestle" chant breaks out. You will hear this on TV. It's loud. Who are they yelling at? All 3??? Show hits the WMD to a chorus of boos. He's really getting a ton of heel heat. Otunga stares at Show going up the ramp.

Otunga: "Well, Brodus, somebody better call your mama. Get up so I can show you how this done. Hit the music." He mocks Clay's dance horribly, then just poses.

Ryback's up next.

Joe and Broni hit the ring. Jared Walkler and Frank Valencia? The say they are hot, on the rise and this will be the summer to remember. Ryback gets a nice reaction. He wins with a two person Samoan drop in 2 minutes after all the usual stuff. The crowd chants feed me more with him.

Mick Foley is chatting with Yoshi Tatsu backstage when Vicki Guerrero buts in. She says that next week she will be GM of both shows. Mick suggests Khali should be her assistant. They do a Dude Love dance together.

Del Rio's MITB commercial airs.

Alberto Del Rio vs. Christian is next.

Daniel Bryan says in 1000th Raw moments video that the HBK vs. Jannetty match was one of his favorite matches. Good choice Bryan.

WWE Intercontinental champion Christian vs. Alberto Del Rio (with Ricardo) - An early enzigjuri gives Alberto control, but Christian suplexes him over the top and splashes him all the way to the floor. Del Rio dodges a charges and Christian goes flying into the ring steps. Christian makes it back in at 9. Alberto starts working over Christian's left arm with moves Daniel Bryan would do better. Alberto goes to the top rope, but Christian counters into a top rope hurricanrana. He jumps to floor, hits the punch, misses a top rope splash, dodges running enzigjuri.

He locks on a cross arm breaker of his own. He fights back but is launched shoulder first into the ring post. Cody walks out to his own music.

National Guard commercial airs. Lilian extends a thank you to the National Guard. USA chant.

WWE airs stock footage of the Harbor. You know it's stock because the Star Spangled Sailibration is going on right now, and the harbor is filled with tall ships.

Kane vs. Daniel Bryan - AJ is the special guest time keeper. Great reaction for Bryan. On the floor, Bryan dropkicks Kane's back, sending him into the ring post. A follow-up running dropkick in the ring gets a 1 count. Kane retaliates with a couple power moves, gets a 2 count. Kane launches off the top rope, but Bryan counters with a mid air dropkick to Kane's gut. Bryan lands his barrage of kicks to an arena's worth of YES chants. Bryan goes to the top rope, but slips and comes up a foot short of Kane. They redo the spot. This time Bryan hits his top rope missile dropkick (expect an edit in post production). But Kane's not done. He takes down Bryan with the big boot. Bryan rallies, landing big kicks to the side of Kane's head.

This is where things start to get really good. Bryan heads back to the top rope and goes for his flying headbutt. Kane reaches his arm up and goozles Bryan before he can connect, drawing a gasp out of the crowd. Bryan breaks Kane's grasp and counters into the Yes Lock. Kane powers Bryan up and transitions into a choke slam. At the peak of the slam, Bryan shifts and locks on a guillotine. Kane struggles for several moments, then pushes Bryan off. Bryan rolls through the push off and reapplies the Yes Lock about 4 feet from the rope. Kane really struggles to the rope to break the hold. He's making progress, but it's unclear if he will get there. Great tension here!

Before Kane can reach the ropes, AJ rings the bell. Bryan relinquishes the hold and starts celebrating. As the referee tries to convince him that the match isn't actually over, Kane recovers and delivers a ferocious chokeslam for the pin in about 7 minutes. Afterwards, AJ skips past the ring all the way to the backstage area.

This was really good! Bryan is simply amazing. It's almost unbelievable what he's been able to pull out of Kane. Great match!

Mick Foley Foley comes to the ring. He's limping around but is in good spirits. He thanks Jon L for being so lame that he's been fired. Foley pauses to speak to a tech at ringside. He has to do the intro again.

Heath Slater comes out. He came out to make a formal proposal. Cindy, Roddy and Wendy embarrassed me.

Mick says Cindy is formidable and there is no reason to be embarrassed. Mick announces Heath's opponent is Zack Ryder. Zack gets a really strong reaction. This was a total squash. Zack wins with the Roughrider in about a minute.

Raw Rebound airs, reviewing Jonny's firing.

Be a Star commercial airs.

Mick walks through the halls with Zack celebrating. They run in Sandow. He calls Zack "the worlds biggest miscreant."

A review of the tag match at No Way Out is shown. A sign in the audience says "Bring back Moppy."

The Usos vs. Prime Time Players (AW introduces the "future WWE champions", hashtag "millions of dollars") - AW distracts the ref allowing Young to crotch one of the Usos on the top rope, allowing Titus to hit an elevated spinebuster for the win.

A No Holds Barred DVD commercial airs. Zeus lives!

PTP and AW are rappin about millions of dollars when Primo and Epico attack them in the back to a good reaction.

Santino comes out to do a "kiss cam" like deal where he tried to find the best sign. A woman (plant) with a I heart Santino sign comes into the ring. They are both wearing cobras and their hands kiss. Then she grabs him and kisses him with such intensity that he passes out.

Sheamus vs. Ziggler is next.

A commercial for Raw's 3 hour expansion is aired.

Dark segment: Jack Swagger comes to the ring, grabs mic. "that's right, say my name. I'm the Captain of the Combover, the All American American American Jack Swagger. I should be on this show in the main event, not Ziggler. There's greatness in me that wants to have spending money and get out and buy a new pair of shoes. I'm more man than anyone backstage. I do not suck. Look at my hair. It's like an ocean of blond riding on lightning."

HHH's music hits to a MONSTROUS reaction. He asks for the mic from Sawgger, kicks him in the gut and Pedigrees him. The music only stopped for 10 seconds. The crowd loved this!

Mick Foley is out for a dark segment. There will be a handicap match. Show and Otunga will face Cena. Johny was locally advertised for this match, but Foley said he wouldn't be appearing since he was fired. Foley is wearing tie dye, and if I'm not mistaken, slippers.

Highlights of Punk on Fallon are shown, but only his entrance.

Dolph Ziggler vs. Sheamus - Sheamus gets a really nice reaction, second best of the night behind HHH. There's a sign that says Gingers for Sheamus. Dolph stars with a go behind, roll-up, and some an exercise taunt in the corner. There are Fehling let's go Sheamus/Ziggler chants. Sheamus brushes off a drop kick and hits a rolling senton. Dolph counters with punches and kicks. He kicks Sheamus in the throat and dodges a charge . Sheamus falls to outside. Dolph launches. Sheamus was supposed to catch him, but he botched it, so they redid the spot. This time Sheamus caught him and threw him through the barricade for a big pop. They fight on the outside. Back in the ring, Dolph tries to secure a chicken wing, but Sheamus launches him WAY UP over the top and to the floor. Sheamus argues with Vickie while Dolph nails a wicked famouser from the apron to the floor. Great spot! Dolph can still only get a one count after a big elbow. Let's go Sheamus/Ziggler chants are loud and split 2 to 1 in favor of the Irishman. Wih Sheamus draped over second rope, Dolph hits a falling drop kick from the apron to the floor. Nice! Sheamus fights back with his power moves , but Ziggler counters a move into a jumping DDT. Sheamus is up top. Ziggler launches with a flying forearm that Sheamus smacks away. Dolph hits hard. Top rope shoulder block from Sheamus to Ziggler for a two count. He then hits the ten shots to the chest in the ropes. If you need to do a role break by five, how does Sheamus always get to ten? Dolph hits some elbows to the head. Sheamus powers off limping, turns around and hits a sudden Brouge Kick for the pin in 11:05. Crowd pops big for this.

This was another really good match.

Overall, I think this was a strong show that, live, had a number of nice surprises. There are at least two matches you must see with the Christian Del Rio match being good as well.

Bonus live match

John Cena vs. Big Show and David Otunga - Otunga to start. A "You Can't Wrestle" chant starts. Let's go Cena chants are way outnumbering Cena sucks chants tonight.

David backs off and tags in Show. Show knocks Cena down and steps on his stomach. Show tries to shushes crowd and hit the slap in the corner. He tries again but Cena counters into a drop kick. He goes to slam Show, but he buckles and Show gets a 2 count. Otunga tags in and works a side headlock. Cena fights up, but Otunga takes him back down. It's clear that Otunga is very limited as a worker. Cena escapes and clotheslined Otunga over the top. On the floor Show throws Cena into the stairs. David gets a two count on Cena. Show tags in and goes for a second rope splash, but Cena rolls away. Otunga in now. Cena hit clothesline, shoulder block, 5 knuckle shuffle combo. Show comes in and hits the WMD on Otunga by accident. Cena hits a big AA on Show, who rolls to the outside. Cena covers Otunga for the pin in 6:45. Big Johnny's music hits. He comes out with a steel chair and attacks the prone Cena to a chorus of boos. He raises the chair again, but Cena ducks and hits the AA. Big cheers, show over.
