Raw Results – 3/14/11

WWE Monday Night Raw
March 14, 2011
St. Louis, Missouri
Report by: Adam Martin of Wrestleview.com

We see Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson talking on the phone. He says John Cena’s “knockout punch” last week was bad and not funny. Cena’s music hits. In walks a little kid dressed like Cena rapping. Rock stands up and wants to teach “little Cena” a lesson. He said Cena took the ball and ran with it when he left WWE. Rock adds that Cena appeals the most to the 2-5 year old demographic. He asks little Cena what it all means. Little Cena said he isn’t very talented. Rock asks little Cena how he feels. “IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW YOU FEEL”, says Rock. Little Cena starts crying. Rock said everyone saw his movies, but they didn’t cry the way he is now. He offers up a Cena t-shirt to blow Little Cena’s nose. Rock gets Little Cena to smile and says he has a surprise – a box of Fruity Pebbles. Little Cena smiles and asks if he can eat them now. Rock said he can and to take his “no talented fruit loop behind” away. Rock then addresses WWE Champion The Miz. The Rock introduces himself to Miz. We are getting the scary background music during this. Rock said Miz made it clear he wants the “single biggest ass whoopin’ of a life time” by mentioning him last week. He promises to “bring it live” before Wrestlemania on Monday Night Raw. Rock tells Cena to shut his mouth whether he shows up live or live via satellite. “If ya smelllll, what The Rock…is…cookin’!”

Backstage, we see Trish Stratus with Snooki of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” fame.

At ringside, we see Michael Cole inside a glass box/structure in what he calls the “Cole Mine” to protect himeslf from Jerry “The King” Lawler. Lawler and Josh Mathews are nearby at the Raw announce table.

WWE Champion The Miz is making his way to the ring. The Miz says Rock’s t-shirt does bring it…hasbeen catchphrases, comedy and awful movies. He says that while Rock’s grandfather and father were good, they were never WWE Champion. Miz says that makes him better than them and he can say whatever he wants. He says Rock likes to make 6 year olds cry, but if Rock steps into the ring with him he will make him cry and scream like a little girl. Miz said unlike Rock talking about beating up Cena, he has actually done it – 3 weeks in a row to be exact. He said Rock doesn’t own Cena…he does. Miz said week after week Rock promises to “bring it.” He said he hopes and prays Rock does and maybe even in St. Louis tonight. Miz said if Rock “brings it”, let it be known that he will be overshadowed by the most seen WWE Champion in company history. “Because I’m The Miz…and I’mmmmmmm…awesomeeeeeeeeeeee.”

The Raw GM has something to say. Michael Cole exits his glass booth. As he gets near the Raw GM podium, Jerry Lawler stands up and blocks him. Lawler tells Cole to return to his cage. The Raw GM has arranged two “first ever” matches for Miz and Cena tonight. Cena will face a man he has never been in the ring with before tonight – the #1 contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Alberto Del Rio. Miz asks Lawler who the Raw GM has for him since he has faced everyone. The Raw GM begs to differ. Out walks Miz’s opponent…The Great Khali.

Vickie tells Snooki to stay away from her Dolphy. She adds it’s no big deal that Snooki is on the cover of Rolling Stone since she was offered the cover of Playboy. Snooki says it must have been a centerfold since you can’t fit all of Vickie on one page. Vickie goes to slap Snooki, but Snooki blocks it and slaps Vickie instead.

He said while his father was off traveling the world being The King, he ignored his son. Brian said Jerry never wanted a child or anyone to get in his spotlight. He said when he made it on his own to the WWE, he wouldn’t even acknowledge to anyone that he was his son. Jerry takes the mic and said he isn’t the only one glad he didn’t use the “Lawler” name. He calls Brian a bigger screw up than Charlie Sheen. Jerry said the fact he would associate himself with a “jackass” like Michael Cole shows everyone what kind of a person he is.

He adds, “How did that make you feel…daddy!?” Brian shoves his father telling him to answer him. He knocks Jerry’s headset off. Brian says it looks like he is just going to sit there and slaps his father. He said the reason he never used his name was because he is ashamed of him.

At Wrestlemania, I will put you in your place.” Jim Ross’ music hits. JR walks down the ramp and gets in the ring. Cole said he was just waiting for the moment when JR was going to show up to steal the spotlight. “I guess it’s a slow day in the BBQ business or on Twitter,” adds Cole. JR said enough is enough to Cole. He tells Cole this has gone far enough. Cole tells JR to go away and says this is his show now. “I’m the voice of the WWE, Michael Cole is the voice of WWE, NOT Jim Ross,” adds Cole. JR said he has been meaning to talk to him about that. He said he has the honor to sit next to Jerry Lawler for many years on Monday Night Raw and he was lucky enough to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. JR said he found out that no one will ever be the “voice of WWE” because the voices are in the arena tonight in St. Louis and watching around the world.
