WWE Raw Recap...By Ryan

...And out to start the show was Vince McMahon strutting out on stage. It's 1994 all over again with McMahon doing his throaty "Welcome everyone to Monday Night Raw". He started off the show by saying there is only one person to blame for last night and that is Bret Hart. McMahon believed him firing Wade Barrett and sending the NXT Rookies packing, set off a chain of events. Hart being injured on Raw last week was no excuse to no-show the PPV Mcmahon thought. Hart didn't hire extra security or inform the WWE wrestlers that another invasion could be coming, so Vince says everything is his fault.

McMahon paused and said as a result of this chaos, he is relieving Bret Hart of his duties as GM of Raw. "In other words, Bret, you're fired," he said. McMahon smiled and said it gives him closure. He then went on to say that he had a real big announcement that the new Raw GM has been hired but will remain anonymous. The first match that the new General Manager of Raw made was a main event for the World Heavyweight title John Cena Vs Sheamus with Vince McMahon as the special guest ref.



Evan Bourne Vs Chris Jericho

This was another good match between these two the perfect follow up to there great match on Sunday night at the PPV. Jericho and Bourne went at it for nearly 10 minutes it was a hard fought match with several near pin falls by Bourne but Jericho pulled it out with the codebreaker and scored the pin.





Tamina VS Natalya

After a back-and-forth opening to the match, the NXT Rookies suddenly walked out through the crowd to interrupt. Wade Barrett then grabbed a mic and said they just want to apologize nice and clean. Kidd wanted nothing to do with that and tried a flip dive onto the Rookies ringside. The Rookies proceeded to beat down Kidd and leave HD out cold ringside to proceed with their "heartfelt apology" that went as so...


The Great Khali and Eve VS Primo and Alicia Fox

Khali and Primo set up to start things off, but Primo tagged out to Alicia, which meant Eve had to tag in. Eve and Alicia traded offense, then Alicia cut off Eve and began a methodical attack. Alicia tried to set up a corner attack, but Eve cut her off and hit a top rope moonsault. Primo broke up a pin attempt and apparently re-entered himself into the contest. That meant Khali had to tag in. Primo begged off and dropped down to both knees. He then came to his feet and tried a forearm, but Khali shook him off. Meanwhile, Alicia took off to the back with her title, wanting no part of this. Khali chopped Primo, then gave him a big Punjabi Plunge for the pin and the win. Primo sold it as if he were a body outline at a crime scene. Eve and Khali then danced to conclude another awkward pairing for Eve following Chris "pec dance" Masters.


John Cena VS Sheamus



The match started quickly with both wrestlers trading blows before they cut to a commercial break.Once back from break Cena landed body shots, but missed with a corner attack and ate the ringpost. Cena slowly rolled to the ring apron as Sheamus slowly came to his feet. Sheamus missed with a running knee strike, but he cut off Cena in the ring with a running clothesline. Meanwhile, Lawler speculated who the new Raw GM is. Sheamus continued a nice, methodical attack on Cena, who kept selling the effects to build to that inevitable comeback.

Cena tried the AA, but Sheamus raked the eyes and hit the Irish Curse backbreaker for a two count only. Sheamus regrouped, then tried his Outsider's Edge drop, but Cena slipped out and immediately countered with the STF. Sheamus teased a tap out, but eventually grabbed the bottom rope for a break.

Sheamus rolled to the floor and Cena tried to follow but than Suddenly, the NXT Rookies hit the ringside area and cleared Sheamus, who took off running into the stands. The Rookies then grabbed Cena and pulled him to the outside. McMahon watched as the Rookies dumped the announce table onto Cena, ending his night ouch!. McMahon walked over to the Rookies and surveyed the scene with them, showing approval. McMahon then walked into the ring with mic in hand and told the Rookies to leave Cena alone. McMahon asked if Cena's still breathing, then he asked the Rookies to walk into the ring. A smiling Mcmahon yelps "these extraordinary athletes," which drew boos. McMahon said he can't take full responsibility, but he can take partial responsibility for all their actions against Lawler, Cole, Hart (especially), and Cena. He asked for a round of applause for himself. He then said it's been interesting this week, but next week, the new GM will reveal something.

McMahon paused and stared down all of the Rookies, who were glaring at him. The crowd just yelled, not knowing how to react. McMahon then smiled and said they almost had him for a second. He said his life flashed before him. McMahon endorsed Barrett before some in the crowd chanted, "Daniel Bryan." McMahon laughed, paused, and said this is just about it. Let's call it a night. Suddenly, the Rookies circled McMahon again. McMahon shot them all funny faces as the Rookies remained standing in place.


Suddenly, they all jumped McMahon and beat him down in the ring. They fed McMahon to Tarver, who landed a big knock-down clothesline. Barrett then gave McMahon his big slam finisher and McMahon crumbled to the ground. Barrett called for the 450 Splash and Gabriel went up top before staring down at McMahon. He took his time before nailing the 450 Splash on McMahon. The Rookies stared down at McMahon, then Barrett told them to leave. The crowd chanted, "NXT, NXT" as the Rookies left the ring satisfied with their work. They cut back to a shot of McMahon motionless in the ring. The cameraman shooting the shot of McMahon dropped his camera and called for some help out here. They cut back to a shot of McMahon out cold on the mat as the show ended..Good show Universe?
