RAW Report / Results - 13th Apr, 2015
Location: London, England
Announcers: JBL, Michael Cole and Booker T
Last week, we found out which man would end up as Seth Rollins’ opponent at Extreme Rules. What will happen as Randy Orton moves one week closer to getting his one on one match against the WWE Champion and revenge on the man who put him on the shelf for a few months.
John Cena makes his way to the ring and the crowd shows that the dislike for Cena crosses the Atlantic Ocean.
John tells everyone not to adjust your volume, Raw is live (sic) from London and London is loud. John says unfortunately for him, it seems like London and him don’t get along, but the building is full. The London crowd has more excitement and energy than any audience they perform in front of.
John says he thinks that London deserves Wrestlemania, but the powers that be want to wait. Rusev could fight, but he wants to wait until Extreme Rules. You want to see him fight instead of talking so the United States Title Challenge continues now.
Wade Barrett’s music plays and he makes his way to the stage and he has something to say.
The crowd thanks Barrett, but he points out that he hasn’t done anything yet. Wade agrees with John. Why should he wait to beat Daniel Bryan for the Intercontinental Championship when he can go ahead and beat John for the United States Championship in front of the greatest nation of the world . . . England.

Roman says that as long as he wakes up he can be mentally strong. He went to Suplex City but he survived. He said you were going to get a fight and it was a fight. Roman says he told everyone he was going to do a few things. He was going to hit the beast in his mouth and he was going to make him taste his blood. Roman says he could have won. He had punches left to throw, but the bottom line was that Seth Rollins came out and he did what he was supposed to do.

Roman points out that Show is in the back. There are Superstars who come out and fight and prove who they are every week. Then you have ‘that’. A giant sell out who is either too lazy or he doesn’t have the balls to say it to his face. Roman says that he did not forget that Show screwed him.

Seth says his stipulation will eliminate Randy’s greatest weapon. Without it, you don’t stand a chance. At Extreme Rules, the RKO is banned. Seth says the Authority always wins.
Randy tells Seth he likes the way he is thinking. He asks what is Seth’s greatest weapon in his arsenal. Is it his speed and strength? No. It is his links to the Authority. What if they couldn’t help you? What if it is up to the two of us. The match will be a Steel Cage Match.
Seth asks Randy if he is supposed to be scared of him. He is the World Champion. Who is Orton without the RKO? He is just Seth’s first victim.
Randy says that is that. Since the RKO is banned at Extreme Rules, he has to give the people their money’s worth. He pushes Rollins over and then he punches and kicks Mercury and Noble. Orton punches Rollins and then he kicks Noble and sends Mercury to the floor.

Roman says that he is mentally strong for a reason and Booker says he looks good.
Roman says that as long as he wakes up he can be mentally strong. He went to Suplex City but he survived. He said you were going to get a fight and it was a fight. Roman says he told everyone he was going to do a few things. He was going to hit the beast in his mouth and he was going to make him taste his blood. Roman says he could have won. He had punches left to throw, but the bottom line was that Seth Rollins came out and he did what he was supposed to do.

Show reminds Roman he knocked him out last week. Every time you get up, Show says that he will be standing there waiting to knock him down again.
Roman points out that Show is in the back. There are Superstars who come out and fight and prove who they are every week. Then you have ‘that’. A giant sell out who is either too lazy or he doesn’t have the balls to say it to his face. Roman says that he did not forget that Show screwed him. He says that things are even, but if you continue to get involved in his action, he will destroy the trophy and retire the giant.
