Thanks to Jason Namako for recapping the first hour of RAW while I was conducting an interview with Façade for the Wrestleview Radio Network

Tonight on RAW, Hustle….Loyalty……..Controversy?

What will the next chapter in this ever evolving scandal bring?

After 2 vicious assaults on Ryback, who are these 3 renegades, what are your motives and who are they working for?

All this and more, tonight on RAW!

We kick off RAW with the mating call of “The Big Hungry” as Ryback makes his way to the ring. WAKE UP!

Cole says later on, we will see the exclusive interview with the NXT 3 that was filmed earlier today.

“The Big Hungry” Ryback vs. “The Big Deal” Titus O’Neil

Titus with a side headlock, but Ryback breaks it. Titus with a knee and a back club. Titus with forearms and back elbows, but then Ryback unloads with right hands. Ryback runs into a kick to the leg, followed by a shoulder tackle. Titus with a clothesline, then does his mating call. Titus stomps away, then hits some back clubs, but Ryback comes back with a Thesz Press. Ryback drives Titus’s head into the mat, then drives him face first to the mat. Darren Young tries to get Titus away, but Ryback nails him with a clothesline and says “I hit Hard!” Ryback gets back in, but Young grabs onto his foot. This allows Titus to hit the Clash of the Titus, but only for a 1 count. Ryback throws Titus into Young, knocking him off the apron, then hits Titus with a spinebuster. Crowd chants “Feed Me More” as Ryback hits Titus with the Meathook.

Ryback yells “Finish It!”, lifts up Titus, marches around and hits Shell Shocked for the victory.

Winner: “The Big Hungry” Ryback by pinfall (Shell Shocked)

After the match, Ryback gets a mic and says “whether its 1 CM Punk, 3 outsiders, or all 4 of them, I will stand here all damn night until I get what I want!” Ryback leads the crowd in the “Feed Me More” chant as we go to commercial.

****Commercial*****

Back from commercial as Ryback continues the “Feed Me More” chant with the crowd as he is waiting for someone to answer. We then see a bunch of security head to the ring to get Ryback out of the ring. One security guy gets in Ryback’s face, but he throws him hard to the outside. Ryback dares the other security to go after him, but the Vickie Guerrero comes out to the stage. Vickie says she is a very understanding person and she knows Ryback feels robbed and embarrassed, however, as managing Supervisor of RAW, you’re not allowed to put your hands on security, so I have no choice……
Ryback cuts her off and says there is no choice and he wants Punk at TLC and he isn’t leaving til he gets it.

Vickie says she will do it, as long as he leaves the ring.

Ryback tells her to “Shut Up”, because he wasn’t finished speaking. He wants a TLC match with Punk at the TLC PPV and there is no amount of security that will stop him from tearing apart the ring from post to post.

Vickie agrees, but under one condition, if he can leave so she can get on with the show.

Ryback scares off the security guards, who flee, and then poses for the crowd as the match is made for TLC, Ryback vs. Punk for the WWE Title in a TLC match.

Cole mentions that Rosa Mendes is upset after being “Swoggled” by Hornswoggle last week on RAW.

We see video from earlier today where Rosa confronts Hornswoggle. Hornswoggle tells her to lighten up as Rosa yells at him in Spanish. Alberto Del Rio comes in and says Hornswoggle only does jokes when he knows that no woman will kiss him. Del Rio starts to go after Hornswoggle until the Great Khali comes in and says “Leave my friend alone”. Del Rio leaves as Khali and Hornswoggle share a high five.

This leads us to Del Rio taking on Khali, which will happen…….NEXT!

“The Mexican Aristocrat” Alberto Del Rio w/Ricardo Rodriguez vs. “The Punjabi Playboy” The Great Khali w/Hornswoggle

The match is joined in progress as Khali with a big overhand chop to Del Rio in the corner. We see Rosa look on from backstage as the crowd chants “One More Time” and Khali obliges them with another chop. Khali says “One more”, then chops Del Rio across the back this time. Khali with a whip, but misses a clothesline and Del Rio with a pair of kicks to the leg, followed by a running dropkick to the knee. Del Rio with shots to Khali’s arm, then locks him in an armbar as the crowd wills on Khali. Khali shoves him off, but Del Rio with a hard kick. Del Rio with a leaping stomp to Khali’s head for a near fall. Del Rio pulls at Khali’s arm in the ropes, then charges and hits the step-up enziguri to Khali’s arm. Del Rio goes for another one, but runs into a back elbow, then a boot off another charge. Khali with a pair of clotheslines, then hits the Brain Chop. Ricardo gets on the apron, but Hornswoggle bites his keister and sends Ricardo to the back. However, Del Rio then with the double knee armbreaker to Khali.

Del Rio then locks in the cross armbreaker and Khali has no choice but to tapout.

Winner: “The Mexican Aristocrat” Alberto Del Rio by submission (Cross Armbreaker)

Del Rio celebrates his victory as we also see Rosa cheering Del Rio’s victory from backstage.

We go to Vickie’s office as CM Punk & Paul Heyman walk in. Punk says did he just see Vickie give Ryback a title shot? Punk says he is up on Ryback 2-0 and now he is put in a TLC match, do you realize the danger she has put him in? Heyman says with the AJ scandal, Vickie is not thinking with a clear head. Heyman says Vickie is biased towards Cena, so to cover her tracks, she has to be biased towards Punk as well. Vickie questions Punk using Maddox & the NXT 3 to help him win against Ryback. Vickie says Punk will wrestle tonight against the winner of the #RAWActive poll. Punk yells at Vickie, but Heyman leads Punk out of Vickie’s office.

So, the WWE Universe will get to vote on Punk’s opponent, either Daniel Bryan or Kane, on Twitter.
The NXT 3’s interview with Michael Cole is up………….NEXT!

****Commercial****

The WWE Slam of the Week…….The NXT 3 putting Ryback through a table last week on RAW.

We go to video of Michael Cole’s interview earlier today with the NXT 3.

Cole says it’s been a pleasure to work with you guys down in NXT, but it’s odd to conduct this interview under these circumstances. Many people…..

Ambrose says who are these people? If you have a question, just ask.

Are you working with Punk? Ambrose says no.

Then, why are you guys here?

Rollins says down in NXT, we saw things crystal clear. Everyone has to answer to someone. What is the WWE Universe? It’s a popularity contest. We are a shield of injustice in the WWE.

Ambrose says it’s not about benefitting Punk; it’s about righting what’s wrong. If it was Cena or Ryback as champion for 365 days, they would have helped them out as well. 365 days as champion is a big accomplishment in today’s WWE.

Cole asks Reigns for thoughts, but he says when he wants to say something, he’ll say it.

Ambrose says this is not the NWO, if you want that, buy the DVD. This is not the Nexus, we are the Shield. This is about bringing honor back to a place that hasn’t had it in a long time.

Reigns now says he has something to say, we’ve said enough, this interview is over and the Shield walk off.

****Commercial****

Back from commercial, we see another vignette for Fandango. Fandango says you need to be graceful, dashing and think on your feet. I’m Fandango, follow my lead and watch your step.

We go to the ring as the Divas are in action.

We see an insert promo from Tamina, who says she doesn’t like little girls who don’t know their place. AJ, I hope you’re watching, you will know why not to mess with Vickie Guerrero again.

Alicia Fox vs. Tamina Snuka

Alicia starts by unloading with stomps in the corner, but Tamina with a hotshot, then sends Alicia back first into the corner. Tamina with a short-arm clothesline, followed by a big forearm. Alicia comes back with an inside cradle for a near fall, but then Tamina comes back with a back elbow. Tamina with a big Samoan Drop, then gets Alicia in place.

Tamina heads up top and hits the Superfly Splash for the victory.

Winner: Tamina Snuka by pinfall (Superfly Splash)

We see still photos of Vince McMahon & the WWE Divas in Iraq as they visited the troops overseas.

John Cena is backstage, heading out to the ring as we go to commercial.

****Commercial****

Did You Know? “In Social Media rankings, WWE beat out the NFL, the NBA and countless others.”

Back from commercial, we hear the familiar music as John Cena makes his way out to the ring.

Cena has a mic and says after Smackdown, Dolph Ziggler got what was coming to him. I have been here for 10 years, had Wrestlemania moments with HBK, HHH & The Rock. But never before have I been interrogated with the question, is AJ a good kisser?

“EXCUSE ME!” as Vickie comes out to the ring. Vickie says I love to say “I told you so”, after Cena’s display of lust last week, that you & AJ have had an affair. And since vindication in a holiday mood, I have a gift for you & AJ. Cena hopes its Vickie retiring. Vickie says she got AJ & Cena matching bathrobes. It’s a token of appreciation for them to get to the honeymoon phase. Vickie says she can’t wait for them to crumble. Vickie says AJ is psychotic, she cost Daniel Bryan the World Title, proposed marriage to CM Punk, hell, even Kane confirmed she is unstable.

This brings out AJ Lee to the ring.

Cena tries to tell AJ not to say anything she doesn’t want to. Vickie calls her a lovesick puppy. AJ says she isn’t going to deny it, it’s true. In the past, I’ve had a lot of issues, especially when it comes to men. I’m trying to be a better person; do you know what that is? This all started when she was GM. Now, I’m not GM and I can date whoever I want, I can do whatever I want. For example, I can do this as AJ starts to flirt with Cena, and then smacks him on the keister. Or, I can do this as she goes to kiss Cena, but Vickie says “Move on!” AJ says thanks to Vickie, GM can’t date talent anymore, which is sad, because that is the only way Vickie can land a man. I’m not a lovesick puppy, but there is only one female dog in this ring. Vickie says “How dare you”, but this brings out Dolph Ziggler.

Ziggler says not to break up the hen party, but the real story is he tackled Cena through a stall and he lay there and took it. Then, for some reason, Cena cheapshotted him on Smackdown. Why would Cena resort to such cowardly tactics? Then, it hit him. I know what is eating Cena up inside. Last week, when you kissed AJ and she jumped in your arms and shoved her tongue down your throat, you know she was thinking about me the entire time.

Cena says what he knows that the sun will rise tomorrow, this is RAW and I will stuff that briefcase down your throat.

Vickie says there will be no more fighting backstage, we will settle this tonight as Dolph Ziggler will face John Cena.

Cena has a smile on his face as he stares down Ziggler.

Also tonight, Sheamus will face Antonio Cesaro as we go to commercial.
