This was an action-packed night full of unexpected moments. So let's get right into it.
Samoa Joe and The Bar ambush The Shield
Raw started out this week with Samoa Joe already in the ring. He cut a promo on the entire Shield as a unit and talked about all they did during their first run in WWE. But Samoa Joe said he wasn't impressed.
Then he singled out each member and talked about how weak they were. Samoa Joe messed up Seth Rollins' knee when Joe debuted on Raw. He called Dean Ambrose a little cockroach and then Joe moved his hateful rhetoric to Roman Reigns.
Joe spewed some vengeful words at Roman Reigns as the camera cut to backstage where Seth Rollins happened to be watching this go down and Ambrose walked up to him. Rollins told The Lunatic Fringe to go get Roman Reigns as Samoa Joe continued in the ring.
Joe kept hating on Roman Reigns to drive home the point that he was superior until the camera cut to another backstage shot where all three Hounds Of Justice were backstage. "I got this boys" Reigns said before walking off.
Reigns entered the arena in Cleveland where he and Joe traded some promo work back and forth before Reigns entered the ring and started beating Joe down. Suddenly, Sheamus and Cesaro jumped up and distracted Reigns.
All three men beat down The Big Dog until Ambrose and Rollins ran down. Sheamus and Cesaro ran out to fight them while Samoa Joe kept Reigns down in a Coquina Clutch.
Rollins ran in the ring but by that point, Sheamus and Cesaro were up and able to make the 3-on-1 advantage work for them. Dean Ambrose tried to fight back, but got a uranage slam for his troubles.
The opening segment ended with the heels standing tall over a broken-looking Shield.
