RAW


After a video plays for Memorial Day, Brock Lesnar is shown backstage with Paul Heyman. When we go live to the arena, Kofi Kingston makes his way to the ring.


Kofi gives a promo about how Dolph Ziggler didn't finish the job last week because he is still standing. He says he will deal with Dolph later, but tonight he is there to deal with Lesnar. Kingston says he will only be one of the greatest champions of all time if he can beat The Beast. He calls Lesnar to the ring and says he wants to face him tonight. Instead of Lesnar, Seth Rollins comes out.


Heyman says Rollins ruined the Brock Party by being a party pooper, so Lesnar will not be deciding who he will face tonight. He and Heyman leave as Ziggler ambushes Kofi from behind again. He hits a Zig Zag on the steel entrance ramp before grabbing a steel chair. Woods runs down and goes after Ziggler. Xavier sends him running into the crowd as we head to a break.


We return to see Woods and Ziggler brawling. Woods rolls him into the ring as he keeps beating on him. The Showoff sends him out of the ring and rakes his eyes. Ziggler runs him into the barricade but Xavier makes a comeback and hits a double ax handle. They keep fighting into the crowd and Woods dumps a trash can on him.


Ziggler eventually gets the upper hand and uses a chair to inflict more damage. Kofi runs back to the ring with his own chair and sends Ziggler running.


Ziggler comes back out after the break and gives another speech to Kofi about how it should have been Dolph who won the WWE title. He says he told everyone how good Kofi was for years and nobody listened to him. Now, Ziggler will take the title at Super Showdown.


Shane McMahon talks about the history between the McMahon and Anoa'i families and how they have been linked for years. He says Reigns wasn't taught respect like he was.


Lance Anoa’i vs. Shane McMahon


Shane will be facing one of Roman's cousins named Lance Anoa'i. Before the ref can call for the bell, McIntyre pulls Lance out of the ring and destroys him. Shane jokingly tries to stop the attack. Drew rolls him in and Shane tells the ref to call for the bell. Shane goes to work with a flurry of jabs to the body and kicks to the leg. Lance starts to fight back as the crowd chants "This is awful." Shane blocks a superkick and locks him in the triangle choke for the win.

Reigns eventually comes out to help his cousin fight off Shane and McIntyre. He takes out Drew with a Superman Punch. Drew saves Shane from a beating while Roman checks on his cousin.



Lesnar is out again after the break, but before he and Heyman can reveal who he will challenge, Seth Rollins heads to the ring. He runs Lesnar down for being a joke when he used to be the most feared man in the business. He dares Brock to cash in his briefcase right now.

Lesnar didn't realize he had an entire year to decide until Heyman tells him. He tells Seth "Screw you" and walks away.

Lacey Evans' music hits and she heads down to the ring to tease Becky as usual.
