RAW


The New Universal Champion Seth Rollins opens RAW.



Before he can speak, we see a recap of the Universal Championship Match last night at WrestleMania.



We hear the “You Deserve It” chants and Rollins says that WE deserve it. The WWE Universe thanks Rollins and He thanks them. He then talks about his triumph against Brock Lesnar.



He says he’s been waiting a long time to hold this title above his head, and all it took was climbing Everest and beating the most dominant champion in the history of WWE. But he wants to be real for a minute, he feels terrible today, like he just got run over by a Mack truck.

He took German suplexes, an F-5 on the floor, but he got back up. He took everything Brock Lesnar had to dish out, and he got back up! He may have engaged in questionable tactics for the advantage, but truth be told he didn’t do anything to Brock that he wouldn’t have done to him. And last he heard Brock and Paul Heyman were headed to Las Vegas, and as far as he is concerned, they can stay in Vegas.

Seth says he’s champion and he’ll do us one better, he’s a FIGHTING champion, and...

Big E does the deal and the New Day are here with brand new WWE Champion Kofi Kingston! He says by the look on Seth’s face he looks real confused, to which Rollins points out what day of the week it is. Kofi says this ain’t the Superstar Shake-Up, that’s next week, and E explains-- they’re here because last night was cause for celebration and they just couldn’t wait for SmackDown.

 Xavier Woods says last night, Rollins won his title, and E talks about Kingston’s big win last night . Kofi talks about the women’s match last night and how winner take all was a great idea for them, so... what he’s saying is how about Universal Champion vs. WWE Champion, no Shield, no New Day, just one-on-one, title for title! Rollins accepts! 






Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder vs The Revival - RAW Tag Team Championship



Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder retains the RAW Tag Team Titles 





Baron Corbin comes out to brag about beating Kurt Angle in his farewell match last night. 

Corbin gets "A-hole" chants. He starts mocking the crowd for thinking he wasn't a worthy opponent to Kurt Angle.



Kurt Angle comes out and tells he was the better man last night and wishes him luck in his career and then he shakes hand but not so fast Corbin. Kurt takes Corbin out with the Angle Slam. For some reason, Lars Sullivan comes out and attacks Kurt Angle. 





Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley 



Alexa Bliss won 







Becky Lynch heads to the ring after the break to celebrate winning both titles at WrestleMania. The crowd gives her a standing ovation before she talks about the journey she has been through to get here. Before she can leave, Lacey Evans’ music hits and she walks down the ramp. She looks Becky up and down before punching her square in the face. Lynch chases her down and they start brawling on the ramp. Becky puts her in the DisArmHer until a few officials break them up.





Aleister Black and Ricochet vs. Bobby Roode and Chad Gable



Aleister Black and Ricochet won





Dean Ambrose vs. Bobby Lashley - Final Match of Dean Ambrose.



Lashley says when Dean is gone, he is going to take care of Renee Young. Ambrose knocks him off of the apron and starts beating him all around the ring. He grabs a chair and throws it at Lashley's face before he whips him into the ring post. He sends Rush into the barricade before going back to Lashley. Dean hits a DDT on the stage before he clears off the announce table. Bobby pops up and hits a Spear. He picks up Ambrose and slams him through the table. Young looks on in horror and checks on her husband after Lashley and Lio head to the back.





Sami Zayn heads to the ring after the break to a great ovation from the crowd. He greets the crowd and reintroduces himself for those who may have forgotten who he is. He says his schedule is wide open and issues an open challenge. It takes a minute, but Finn Balor eventually heads to the ring.



The announcer says he has bee informed that this match is now for the IC Title.





Finn Balor (c) vs. Sami Zayn for ICTitle



Finn Balor retains the ICTitle



Balor leaves up the ramp while Zayn recovers in the ring. He looks around as the crowd chants for him. He picks up a mic and says he thought having a match would make him feel better, but what it did was make him realize how much the crowd missed him. He says he did not miss any of the fans and shows he is still a heel. He says WWE is a toxic environment because of the fans. He says the fans only get joy from being critics.



Zayn rips into the fans for judging everyone but themselves because they know how ugly they are inside. He says he isn't here to save WWE. He is here to hold the crowd accountable.





Elias appears in the ring for another performance. He trashes John Cena for interrupting him last night. He does a little rap to prove what Cena does is easy.



Elias says the next person to interrupt him is a dead man, and that is when The Undertaker's music hits.



The Undertaker gets in the ring and stares at Elias for a moment. The singer begins to leave the ring, but then he changes his mind and gets back in. He takes off his jacket and slowly approaches Taker. Elias turns to leave as a trick, but Taker sees it coming and delivers a big boot and a Chokeslam. He takes off his jacket and hits a Tombstone Piledriver. The crowd counts the pin for him before his music hit.






Seth Rollins (c) vs. Kofi Kingston (c) for both Universal Title and WWE Championship - Winner Takes All

The Bar come out and get involved to cause an DQ. Kofi and Seth team up to take out The Bar. Definitely smell a tag team match. I felt there was gonna be some involvement.
