WWE RAW Results: August 19

After Sunday’s epic PPV, RAW looked to capitalise on the huge momentum that it gave itself on SummerSlam. The event will surely have a lot of fallouts today as WWE looks to answer questions related to every feud starting from Christian’s shocking loss to Daniel Bryan’s betrayal (or a Triple H heel turn). Anyway it’s time for the shovel again.

The show begins with a SummerSlam recap of the two main events.

John Cena‘s music hits and he makes his way down the ring. He congratulates Daniel Bryan for being the better man last night and was sad about what transpired later. He says he will take some time off wrestling as his elbow needs to undergo a surgery and shamefully the crowd cheers for it. Cena then calls out Bryan, who enters to a huge pop from the crowd. Cena congratulates Bryan and leaves the ring.

Before Bryan can even get a word, Stephanie interrupts and tells Bryan she is sorry about what happened. Bryan calls her trash and looks enraged. Stephanie tries to stay calm and explains how everyone cannot be the champion in WWE. She loses her cool as Bryan knocks the mic off her and calls security, who look like a bunch of jokers. Bryan is escorted out of the building amidst huge NO chants.

Damien Sandow vs. Cody Rhodes

Sandow and Rhodes have a SummerSlam rematch, where Sandow looks to make things even by getting a victory. A decent opening match that had a good amount of back and forth action as Rhodes rolled up Sandow in the corner to pick up the victory for the second time in two nights.

Winner: Cody Rhodes

Paul Heyman is in the ring with a sling on his arm. He starts with Brock Lesnar beating Punk at SummerSlam and then says he has forgiven Punk for his actions and wants to end this immediately. But before that he wants Punk to apologise and calls him out to the ring. Punk doesn’t show up.

The Funkadactyls vs. AJ and Layla

AJ and Natalya went for the their opponents even before the match started. AJ looked dominant with a sleeper but Naomi made a comeback. She then rolled Layla, who came in after the tag to pick up the victory.

Winner: AJ and Layla

The Shield vs. Dolph Ziggler (3 on 1 Tag-Style Handicap Match)

The Shield remained in control in the initial stage of the match as Ziggler was trying to find an opening. He finally made a break and went on a roll hitting all his signatures Reigns. He suplexes Rollins out of the ring and turns around and runs into a spear from Reigns. The Shield then hit the triple powerbomb as a display of dominance.

Winner: The Shield

Alberto Del Rio vs. Sin Cara

Del Rio starts with a few shots but Sin Cara throws him out of the ring and goes for the suicide dive. The match is called off as Sin Cara hurt his hands during the dive.

Del Rio looks frustrated and attacks Cara and grabs the mic. He considers himself the true Mexican hero to be interrupted by Ricardo Rodriguez.

Ric claims that Del Rio isn’t the true hero and introduces the new wrestler he represents. He introduces RVD and says he will be his new ring announcer. RVD runs into the ring and attacks ADR as he escapes.

Winner: No contest
