WWE RAW (20.01.2015) review: - WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar called out Seth Rollins ; Cena’s rousing rhetoric remained unchanged despite suffering the same indignity as Lesnar last week. The 15-time World Champion repeated his plan to win Lesnar’s WWE World Heavyweight Title and to hold it hostage until Dolph Ziggler, Ryback and Erick Rowan were reinstated. His overzealousness may cost him yet, though. The Authority agreed to put Cena in a match that would reinstate the trio if he won, and excise him from the Triple Threat Title Match if he lost … provided the WWE Universe votes for it to happen at all, on the WWE App. - Bray Wyatt def. Daniel Bryan ; Kane added insult and potentially further injury to The “Yes!” Man, Chokeslamming his old buddy and mugging him for all the WWE Universe to see. We’re a long way from hugging it out, people. - Big Show crashed the Royal Rumble Legends Panel ; One of Raw Reunion’s marquee attractions (though itd be tough to top X-dow) got derailed in a hurry when Big Show decided to add his two cents to the Royal Rumble Legends Panel consisting of Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels. After the Legends discussed their Rumble experiences and debated who would win this year’s melee (for the record, HBK picked Bray Wyatt, Hogan pegged Daniel Bryan and “Naitch” threw his lot with Dean Ambrose), the giant thundered down to the ring. He took the veterans down a memory lane detour of the occasions on which they’d been subjected to Show’s own fury and proclaimed himself the inevitable winner of the contest seeing as no one (well, almost no one) can eliminate a giant. He even knocked out Flair for good measure. But Roman Reigns’ appearance evened the odds and proved the giant’s boasts wrong when he hauled all 450 pounds of him over the top rope. - Dean Ambrose def. Bad News Barrett (IC c.) in a Non Title Match - The New Day(Kofi Kingston & Big E) def. Cesaro & Tyson Kidd - The Ascension confronted The nWo ; The Ascension have caught flack from JBL for comparing themselves to legendary tag teams who aren’t able to stick up for themselves. But the ascendant behemoths switched up their tactics a bit on “Raw Reunion,” confronting The nWo (that’s Kevin Nash, Scott Hall & X-Pac) moments after the renegade faction winkingly took credit for “anything great that has ever happened.” Their audacity provoked JBL to get up from the commentary table and summon Ron Simmons for an impromptu reunion of the APA. The New Age Outlaws arrived to stack the deck further and that was about all she wrote for The Ascension this time, as the Legends united against the NXT veterans to send them tumbling from the ring. - Natalya & Paige def. Summer Rae & Alicia Fox - Rusev (US c.) def. R-Truth in a Non Title Match - Jey Uso (Tag Team c.) def. The Miz - John Cena def. Seth Rollins, Kane & Big Show in a 3-on-1 Handicap Match ; After a spear from Big Show and a Chokeslam from Kane left Cena down, an image of Sting appeared on the TitanTron just as Seth Rollins was about to put his foe away with a Curb Stomp. What was seemingly a still image of the former WCW Champion turned out to be a live shot of the vigilante himself, who stalked to the top of the Raw ramp for the first time ever and distracted Rollins enough for Cena to steal the win with a roll-up and reinstate Dolph Ziggler, Ryback & Erick Rowan on the spot. Triple H’s irate demands for Sting to present himself again were instead answered by Brock Lesnar, who summarily laid waste to Kane and Big Show, though Rollins got away. This Sunday, he might not be so lucky. wwe/shows/raw/2015-01-19/wwe-raw-results-27027149/page-10
