Seth Rollins kicked off RAW

He talks about how all three former members of The Shield will be in the main event. Then he says he wants to talk about Roman Reigns despite being told not to.
He says Reigns' mistake embarrasses him because he is the one who brought Reigns into The Shield. Then he shows the tweet Reigns sent out apologizing for his violation.

Rollins says the right thing to do is take Reigns out of the Battleground main event.
This brings out Dean Ambrose

Ambrose says everyone makes mistakes even Rollins when he wears skinny jeans. Says the triple threat is still on at WWE Battleground Then AJ Styles comes out to join the party.

Styles says he should take Reigns' spot in the title match at Battleground. The crowd chants Yes over and over at his idea.
Ambrose says Reigns is still in the match, so Styles says they should make it a Fatal 4-Way. Then Cena comes out.

Cena gives us his resume and says he should get a shot at the title. Rollins obviously objects until Stephanie comes out.

Stephanie says she has a solution to their problem and says what happened with Reigns was an embarrassment, but having Ambrose as a champion is worse.
She books Cena vs. Rollins and Styles vs. Ambrose for tonight. If Cena or Styles win, they will be added to the main event of Battleground.

He gets very impassioned as he tells KO to grow a set and accept the match

Owens says stabbing him in the back was just a business move like he has always said it was. He eventually accepts the challenge for a match at Battleground.
Jericho says he agrees with Owens that Zayn is a bad friend. He runs Zayn down about listening to the fans and not following his example.
He gives everyone the gift of Jericho, so Zayn and Owens kick him in the face at the same time.

Wyatt ends by saying New Day Falls



Dean Ambrose vs. AJ Styles - if Styles wins he'll become apart of the WWE Championship at Battleground

Anderson and Gallows came out to appear to cost Ambrose the win, but John Cena came out and got AJ  Styles distracted, and then Ambrose turns to look at Cena down from the attractions of the club and then gets pedigreed, then we see The Club attacking Cena, and then Rollins pedigreed Ambrose again, and then standing over Ambrose with the WWE Championship.

Will this be the scene at WWE Battleground?

RAW

Dean Ambrose opens up RAW as the New WHC.

They show a recap of the MITB ladder match, and Dean Ambrose winning and then he cashed in on Rollins to come the WHC.

Fans chant "you deserve it". Ambrose talks about how he had a wild night in Las Vegas last night. He brings up Seth Rollins and says he was just the right guy at the right place at the wrong time. Ambrose goes on and says it was all worth it because hard times are no more. He's interrupted by the music and out comes Roman Reigns.

Roman Reigns says last night was Deans night and tells him congrats, and then asked Dean how'd it feel cashing in on Seth Rollins and Dean said he would've cashed in on him too. And then fans chant ''You can't wrestle'' and Reigns said to shut up, and then asked Ambrose if he was an fighting champion, and he has an rematch for the WHC and then Seth comes out, and talks how Ambrose stole the title, and how he deserves the rematch and then gets in the face of Reigns.

Shane McMahon comes out and tells Dean Ambrose congrats on winning the MITB ladder match and cashing in to become the WHC

Shane then says Rollins and Reigns should have a match to see who gets their rematch against Ambrose first. Rollins asks if Shane consulted Stephanie on this.
Shane pretends to ask her and says she loves the idea, then he reveals she isn't there tonight, so he is in charge of the whole show.
He makes the match official for tonight's show and winner will face Dean Ambrose for the WHC.


Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens

Sami Zayn won

After the match, Kevin Owens attacked Sami Zayn.

Officials come out to separate Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn
and the fight continued in the back.


 John Laurinaitis is back! He comes out to a podium and talks about how he used to be a GM and makes his case for why he should be the GM of SmackDown.
Shane comes out and tries to get him to stop talking..

Enzo and Big Cass come out and we see Enzo and Shane do the shuffle walk together going back and forth and then make their way to the ring and they cut promos  and get the "how you doin?!" chants.


Enzo and Big Cass vs. The Vaudevillians

Enzo and Big Cass won



AJ Styles came out to discuss the win he got over John Cena last night at MITB

They recap on what happened in the match of Styles vs. Cena and Anderson And Gallows get involved to help Styles win last night.

Gallows and Anderson come down and Styles says he had Cena right where he wanted him and didn't need their help. He blames them for ruining a first-time dream match.
Anderson apologizes first, and Gallows goes next. Then he asks them to apologize to Cena and invites Cena to the ring.
Cena says he doesn't need an apology because Styles broke his word. Gallows apologizes to Cena and says Styles had no knowledge of their plans.
Anderson says the same thing. Cena says Styles should be celebrating, but instead he is trying to hide the fact that he isn't as good as he says he is.
Styles says Cena can choose any member of The Club he wants to face tonight, except for himself. Cena says it doesn't matter who he picks because it will always be 3-on-1.
Styles says Anderson will face Cena 1-on-1, and KA will knock Cena's teeth down his throat.


John Cena vs. Karl Anderson

Ends in no contest

when AJ and Gallows comes down and interferes, and then the club attacks Cena.

Natalya attacked Becky Lynch back stage during an interview with Renee Young, when she was talking about MITB.

Baron Corbin defeated Zack Ryder

We shall the Wyatt family show up on the screen, they'll be returning tonight on Raw


Charlotte (c) vs. Paige for the Women's Championship.

Charlotte won

After the match, Charlotte and Dana Brooke attacks Paige and then..
Sasha Banks' music hits . THE BOSS IS FINALLY BACK!!! She knocks out Brooke in the aisle with a hard right hand to the face.
She chase Charlotte and hits the Backstabber. Brooke attacks her, but Paige helps The Boss send them running and then holds up the title, we'll we see a triple threat for the women's title at Battleground or maybe we'll get a one on one between the two which would be awesome but Dana has to be banned at ringside so there isn't any interference in the match or even the triple threat. Because, I think Paige wants the title too, so it would make sense.

The Wyatt Family came out


Wyatt starts by asking if the crowd missed him and they cheer.
Then The New Day come out.
The New Day say Rowan has a big booty.
Bray starts laughing and says he hopes they understand what they have just done by interrupting him during his return. He starts chanting New Day Falls, and so does the crowd.
The segments ends with Bray telling them to run.

Match ended in double count out - No Contest

Shane's music hits and he comes out to say a No. 1 contender is needed for Battleground. Ambrose says he is willing to fight both men in the same night and Shane books a Triple Threat title match
Ambrose hits Dirty Deeds to Reigns after they exchange some words and then walks off. Rollins taunts Reigns, so Ambrose runs back and gives him Dirty Deeds, too.


I look forward too WWE Battleground

MITB: After show Podcast - http://wrestling101withkaren.podomatic.com/entry/2016-06-19T21_35_46-07_00

MITB Predictions.

MITB is to be the arguably to be one of the hugest MITB.

Pre-Show:


The Golden Truth vs. Breezango

The Golden Truth wins


The Lucha Dragons vs. The Dudley Boys

The Lucha Dragons


MITB


Dolph Ziggler vs. Baron Corbin

Baron Corbin wins.


Sheamus vs. Apollo Crews

Apollo Crews wins.


The New Day vs. Enzo Amore and Big Cass vs. The Vaudevillians vs. The Club - in a Fatal 4 Way Tag Team Match for the Tag Team Championship


Enzo Amore and Big Cass wins


AJ Styles vs. John Cena


John Cena wins.


What if Finn Balor made his debut at MITB?

I think that would be awesome.


MITB Ladder Match

Dean Ambrose vs. Kevin Owens vs. Cesaro vs. Chris Jericho vs. Sami Zayn vs. Alberto Del Rio


Dean Ambrose wins


Charlotte and Dana Brooke vs. Natalya and Becky Lynch

Natalya and Becky Lynch wins.


I have to think that Dana Brooke will turn her back on Charlotte during or after this match.

Maybe we'll see Charlotte vs. Dana Brooke  for the Women's Championship soon, but I think I'd rather like to see Charlotte vs. Bayley vs. Sasha Banks for the Women's Championship.


Rusev vs. Titus O'Neil for the United States Championship

Rusev wins. but if went by who I want to win I'd say Titus O'Neil but Rusev is pretty dominating, but I am hopeful that he'll surprise us.


Seth Rollins vs, Roman Reigns for the World Heavy Weight Championship


This could be incredible especially if Dean cashes in and it comes Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose for the WHC.

I would say if it does happen I would go with Dean Ambrose winning.

but if it just stays Seth Reigns vs. Roman Reigns for the WHC

I would have to go with Seth Rollins winning.
