We cut away from all the fireworks and Lawler & Matthews welcoming us to the show to the ring when the Raw theme song begins playing and Michael Cole walks out to hellacious boos in the arena, he has a black eye. Cole gets to the ring and asks for a mic as Lawler watches on,
"Ladies & Gentleman may I have your attention please. Last night was a rough night, I came into Wrestlemania last night, fully trained & qualified, ready to beat Jerry "The King" Lawler. I came in very cocky & full of confidence but I didn't get the job done. I don't blame you fans for cheering Lawler & booing me right now after what I have done these past weeks, I deserve what I got at Wrestlemania and with no excuses I can say the better man came out on top, Lawler. I'm not here to fight, I came to do my job & that's announce but before I do, I wanna let bygones be bygones Jerry, so what do you say?" Lawler stands up with mic in his hand,
"Cole, why don't you do us all a favor and shut the hell up. Save your apologies, you're embarrassing yourself. Do you really believe after weeks of bringing my family into this that I will all of a sudden forgive you? Well if you do, think again. I absolutely enjoyed pummelling the hell out of you last night at Wrestlemania and I'm pretty sure I would enjoy it again. So unless you want another black eye Cole then sure come on over and take your seat right here". The lights flicker at the sound of an e-mail coming in from the anonymous GM. Josh Matthews takes his headset off,
"I'll take this one guys". Matthews walks onto the podium to read the e-mail
"Lawler, Cole, I congratulate you two on a hell of a match last night at Wrestlemania, both of you were winners in my eyes. But that was Wrestlemania, tonight is Raw, my show and I want what's best for my show. So I don't care if you two kiss & make up but you will be announcing together whether you like it or not. I am reinforcing the rule you two had before Wrestlemania where if either of you touch each other, you both will be fired. Now Cole, go take your seat next to Josh Matthews". Cole gets out of ring, puts on headsets and Lawler stares him in the eyes as Matthews is inbetween trying to cool down the two
"King, I just want to do my job, that's all. So let's put this behind us for the sake of the show." All 3 take a seat but there's still hostility on King's part.
AWESOME! I CAME TO PLAY!
The Miz makes his way out with Alex Riley, a smile but more importanly the WWE Championship still on his shoulders, he gets to the ring and is handed a mic
"You should take a look in the mirror at all your faces right now, you didn't even expect this sight right here, me still with the WWE Championship, 24 hours after an 'AWESOME' Wrestlemania. All of you overlooked me but I told you all I would do it, that I would beat Cena. I've finally made believers out of all of you and now you kids have someone new to look up to, me BECAUSE I'M THE MIZ & III'MMM AWWEESS... Miz gets interrupted by the theme song of John Cena, who storms to the ring with a furious look on his face from his big loss. Cena grabs a mic
"Oh Miz, you're right. Nobody expected you to walk out as champion last night, so congratulations, you've proven you are one of the elite but there is only one reason why and his name is The Rock. Miz, you did get overlooked and I got some breaking news for you dude, you're still being overlooked cause tonight it's not about you, it's about one man, The Rock. So Rocky, to borrow a line, bring your roody poo candy ass on down to this ring cause it's time for a fight. Just Bring It." "If Ya Smell What The Rock..Is Cooking", Rocky comes out to the ring and he & Cena get face to face before he snatches Cena's mic from him
"Cena, know your role & shut your mouth. You come out here looking like a big fat bowl of fruity pebbles, throwing out challenges at The Rock & stealing The Rock's lines. You really think you were gonna get off that lightly after that Attitude Adjustment last week. Cena, all The Rock did was fend off The Miz's highschool sweetheart Alex Riley, it was you who grabbed The Rock's arm and turned him around causing yourself to get distracted allowing The Miz to take advantage and steal the win. You could've just went on with your business but you got in The Rock's business which is something you never wanna do, so Cena you wanna issue challenges, well The Rock issues you a challenge, how about it for tonight. The dream match becomes a reality, The Most Electrifying Man In Sports Entertainment is back in the ring for the first time in over 5 years, The Rock vs. John Cena". The fans go apeshit over the challenge, Cena is about to accept when another e-mail is sent by the anonymous GM. Cole goes over to the laptop
"AND I QUOTE! ROCK, CEN...IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU QUOTE! How dare you little jabroni interrupt The Rock? Why don't you send a little message back to the GM from The Rock. "The Rock says he wants you to take that little Laptop of yours on this podium, shine it up real nice against Michael Cole's ass, turn it sideways and STICK IT STRAIGHT UP YOUR CANDY ASS! "Rock don't be too harsh on Cole here. Where would Cole be without the Laptop? He does more than just read out e-mails. He also beats himself off to pictures of the GM. He sends back love e-mails to the GM. Cole, the GLAAD ain't mad at you anymore dude for that Twitter remark, they're very happy for you. But Rock, let's hear what the GM has to say and no stupid "AND I QUOTE" Cole". "The Anonymous GM says, Rocky who are you to make challenges. You aren't even a wrestler here anymore, so no you will not be competing in the main event here tonight or anywhere in a WWE ring as long as you are not under contract to me. But I will still allow you to be a part of the main event. Tonight I will book a Wrestlemania rematch, a match you were a big part of, a match which stole the show last night and will steal the show today. Tonight, The Miz defends the WWE Title against John Cena. And the Special Referee for that match will be...THE ROCK!" "You'd think I'd be mad about this but I've already beaten you Cena and I can do it again tonight BECAUSE I'M THE MIZ...Yadda yadda yadda, yeah you're The Miz & you're awful, we get it. But get this..." Cena hoists Miz up for Attitude Adjustment but A-Ri attacks Cena allowing Miz to escape the move & the ring, Rocky lays the smackdown on A-Ri sending him into an Attitude Adjustment by Cena. Rock goes for a Peoples Elbow on A-Ri but as he runs off rope, Cena picks up Rock & delivers AA. Cena gets up, stands over Rock's head and pulls off his Cena designed wristband and flings it into crowd before he runs to the rope and delivers a Five Knuckle Shuffle to Rock, mimicking The Peoples Elbow but in his own way. Cena's music hits and he exits the ring. Rock stirs & stares Cena down as he stands on the ramp before commercial break.

Winner: RANDY ORTON
The referee helps Randy up to his feet and as Randy begins celebrating, CM Punk interrupts on the titantron. He's standing in the Parking Lot just outside of Randy's tour bus.
"Congratulations Randy. You showed the world last night & just now, that you truly are like a Viper, you don't need a leg to win, bravo Randall. But if you think it's still over between me & you Randy, you're dead wrong. I still haven't got my revenge for 3 years ago, so it will never be over till I get what's mine. I can see in your eyes that you're thirsty for my blood, well Viper I'm just as vicious & venomous as you are, I'm even more thirsty for yours. Oh what do we have here Randy, looks like your tour bus, the same one from last week. It looks beautiful on the outside but what about on the inside? I think we should all take a look, don't you". CM Punk walks on over to the tour bus as the cameraman follows. Back in the arena Randy looks on with shock and runs out of the ring headed towards the Parking Lot. Punk opens up the tour bus doors and looks inside to find Randy's wife & kids screaming, yelling "Get Out" at him.
"What's the matter? Thought we could get aqquianted since we didn't last week. Hello I'm CM Punk and you are....about to taken on a wild ride. Buckle up". Punk gets in, sits in the drivers seat and turns the engine on as Randy just makes it into the Parking Lot but he's too late as Punk begins driving away. Randy runs after the bus but can't catch up, he stares on & is going crazy as the camera fades to a commercial.
Commercial break
We're back and shown an extra clip we did not see before we went to commercial. The clip shows Randy pulling another WWE employee out of his car & shoving him to the floor before he gets in & starts up the car and rides away, chasing after his wife & kids.
Sheamus vs. R-Truth - United States Championship
The human jar Of mayonaise starts off strongs with his strength & power moves before the human jar of chocalate sauce gets his shots in with some amazing counters & high flying flips. Truth goes for the Lie Detector but as he spins in the air, Sheamus catches him in the stomach with the Brogue Kick leading to the pin, 1, 2, 3!
Winner & STILL United States Champion: SHEAMUS
Sheamus clears the ring of Truth before he asks for a mic.
"Look at this right here, pathetic. R-Truth & Daniel Bryan are both the same, they have amazing moves but they don't have what it takes to be a champion, they don't have what it takes to beat me, they are both losers. I've pretty much beaten the whole roster here on Raw, some I've retired, some I've put on the shelf just like Daniel Bryan, he's at home licking his wounds. Is there anybody in the back that I haven't beaten, is there anybody who can step up to the plate against me? If there is, I dare them to come out right now". Nobody comes out for a while leading to a big grin from Sheamus.
"Just as I thought, they're all scared. That's why I am the greatest United States Champion this company has ever seen, that's why I will..."

TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!
HHH comes out to a big ovation from the crowd, he gets in the ring and asks for a mic.
"Well Undertaker, you did it. You made it to 19 - 0 last night at Wrestlemania, you proved me wrong, you proved us all wrong. But you just barely achieved it though as you were put through your own worst nightmare last night. For once in your Wrestlemania streak, you were the underdog in this match cause I made you look like the underdog. You can go around, throwing your arm up in the air, with your eyes rolled in the back of your head as you kneel towards the titantron that says "19 - 0", looking like it was a piece of cake for you but the whole world looked into your eyes after the match was over, I looked into your eyes as I saw the replay Deadman and you didn't look like a winner, no, you looked like a survivor. We went through so much hell & back that even you will be out of action for months to come despite you coming out the victor. Shawn if you're watching, I hope you enjoyed what you got cause that's all about I could deliver and the same goes for you fans. Now the question is, where did I go from here? Well I pretty much stated last time, I did it all in the WWE except for ending The Undertaker's streak but hey it's not like I haven't defeated The Undertaker before, so I have pretty much done it all in the WWE. It's been such a great ride for me these past 15 years but that ride seems to come to an end. So, tonight, I hereby officially announce....that I will RETIRE!" The crowd don't take too well to the announcement from HHH and chant "ONE MORE MATCH". Just as HHH looks around the crowd in a bit of emotion.
OH, OH, OH SHAWWWWNNNNNN!
The crowd burst into cheers as Shawn Michaels makes his way out as HHH looks on. Shawn gets in the ring and gets a mic.
"Well it seems we weren't successful on that little deal we made many many years ago. Neither of us managed to defeat The Undertaker at a Wrestlemania. But you know what Hunter, I think going out to a loss against Undertaker isn't the best way to go out. Everyday I regret last year being my last match, I regret agreeing to that match being my last if I was to lose. If I could go back in time, I would undo it, well actually if I could go back in time, I would do better than I did and defeat The Undertaker. But you Hunter, did not have that clause in your match against Undertaker. You do not have to retire. "Shawn, I appreciate you trying to cheer me up but there is nothing left for me to do here anymore....Listen to me Hunter, listen...No Shawn, I did not come here for one last argument. Like you, I've moved onto bigger things, like taking care of my family, my new business which you fans may have heard of. Shawn, it's best for the both of us, it's best for the fans but most of all it's best for me to go out like this and the way I wanna go out..." Triple H unzips his jacket to reveal a DX T-Shirt which gets the crowd hot. HHH pulls off T-Shirt revealing another DX T-Shirt on, he hands his T-Shirt to Shawn in which he smiles back. Shawn puts the T-Shirt on before the DX theme hits. Both of em turn each side of the ring & begin throwing crotch chops at the crowd as they echo chants of "DX" around the arena. Once DX are done, showboating, they highfive & hug each other then raise each others arms in the air towards the crowd before Shawn Michaels HITS SWEET CHIN MUSIC to HHH. The fans silence & look on in shock, Shawn picks up the mic.
"All I asked of you was to listen Hunter. I tried to urge you not to retire because Hunter, if you're gonna go out to anybody, it's gonna be to the man who made you what are you today. The man who doesn't need a streak to be Mr. Wrestlemania, Hunter, I want to come out of retirement for one match, just one match only, so I can retire you with some dignity, with some pride. I'm sorry it had to be done this way Hunter but what do you say? You can tell me next week but until then, chin up, buddy". The confusion from the crowd turn to big loud cheers as Shawn is planning on coming out of retirement for a retirement match with HHH but what will HHH have to say about it? Shawn leaves the ring and heads up the ramp.
Commercial for Sin Cara plays before the Raw graphic on Cara shows up on the screen as the Raw commentator hype up his debut, next.

Sin Cara vs. John Morrison
Sin Cara comes out to a huge pop from the crowd, John Morrison is even happy to see him, both men share a handshake before they begin the match. It's a epic back & forth highflying match between both men which keep the fans on the edge of their seat. Lots of twists & turns from both competitors and "OOOOOHHH's & AWWWWWWEEE's" from the crowd. Sin Cara hits his tilt-a-whirl headscissors turned into fujiwara armbar finisher on Morrison and gets him tapping on the mat for the victory.

We come back to see the commentators hyping up next weeks Raw episode, announcing that Vince McMahon will be making his return to Raw next week.
We then go to the titantron where Randy's tour bus is parked on a street somewhere, the windows are all smashed, the sides of the bus are dented and Orton's wife & kids are screaming inside the bus. A black car pulls up behind the bus and it's Orton who rushes out of the vehicle, he freaks out at the sight of the damaged bus before he rushes inside to find his wife & kid sitting on a couch in the bus, crying their eyes out as Orton comforts them but unbeknownst to him, CM Punk rushes into the bus behind Randy, the wife & kids scream for Randy to "watch out" and Randy turns around to receive a shot in the face with a Crowbar. Punk rams the Crowbar into Randy's legs some more, his wife tries to stop Punk but Punk pushes her back onto the couch.
"Shut up. You see Randy, I told you I was thirsty, now I feel quenched for the bittersweet taste of revenge. You cost me my title, I cost you your pride in front of your own family, you're a coward Randy. I'll see you soon little Bobby, little Mike and Angie". Punk leaves the bus as Randy's family comfort him and scream for help before we go back to the arena for the main event.
The Miz vs. John Cena w/ The Rock as Special Referee: WWE Championship
Cena & Miz put on decent action. It's back & forth here. Alex Riley distracts Rock whenever Cena gets the upper hand allowing Miz to take advantage when Cena is distracted by Rock & Riley arguing. At one point in the match, Cena does his Five Knuckle Shuffle to Miz while mocking Rock, he then delives Attitude Adjustment to Miz when he gets up, Rock drops for the count but A-Ri pulls Rock out of the ring by his leg, A-Ri then hits Rock Bottom courtesy of The Rock. Rock grabs a mic and tells him to check himself right into the Smackdown Hotel cause his ass is ejected from the match. Cena then gets into an argument with The Rock, telling him to count, both men shove each other. Rock tells Cena to pin Miz which he does, Rock begins the count as he yells on the mic,
"1....2....IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE ROCK COUNTS TO 3!" Cena gets up pissed and gets in a punching brawl with Rock which the fans go hectic for as it's the first time they witness both men really going at it, Rock ducks a shot from Cena and Rock Bottoms Cena next to Miz before he hits The Peoples Elbow on both men at the same time and mocks Cena with the "You Can't See Me" taunt as he gets up. Rock grabs the mic and declares himself the winner...
"And the winner of the match is....THE ROCK!"
Winner: NO CONTEST
Rock continues speaking on the mic,
"Cena, you can run your mouth all you want, Miz you can run your mouth all you want & the GM can run his mouth all he wants about how I'm not competing because The Rock is gonna go it & make it official, FINALLY THE ROCK HAS COME BACK TO....MONDAY NIGHT RAW! So whoever your roody poo candy ass is, if you ain't bring your candy ass to the show to welcome The Rock, at least have the courtesy to put The Rock in a match with both these jabronis cause The Rock is back and he's looking to become an 8 time WWE Champion. It does not matter to The Rock who is the WWE Champion whether it be this big goof that calls himself "Awesome" with his ridiculous 2 dollar red rooster like hair or this roody poo who just fell out of Barney The Dinousaur's anus. But if The Rock has to run through the whole roster then start booking because The Rock is ready & willing to LAYETH THE SMACKETH DOWN ON ALL THEIR CAAAAANDDDYYY ASSSESSSS!" The fans chant "ROCKY, ROCKY, ROCKY" all around the arena and he soaks in the chant before the lights flicker along with that annoying bleeping noise signalling another e-mail from the General Manager. Cole gets up to answer it,
"AND I QUOTE, Rock, it's great to hear you are back on Monday Night Raw as of now. And while the idea of you running through the whole roster is a great idea, the idea of you competing against Miz & Cena for the WWE Championship is just tempting. I'm sure everyone would love to see you in the ring with both of these men, so Rock, you have yourself a deal. EXTREME RULES - WWE CHAMPIONSHIP - THE MIZ, JOHN CENA.....AND THE ROCK!!!! The crowd are batshit at the news of The Rock's return match.
IF YA SMEELLLLLLLLLAALLLLOOOOOOOO WHAT THE ROCK...IS COOKING! The Rock's music hits and the crowd can't stop going nuts as The Rock poses on the turnbuckles. Once Rock is done posing, he raises an eyebrow down at Cena & Miz's unconscious body and exits the ring & heads up on the ramp, celebrating with the crowd, the show comes to a close with a ballistic reaction for The Rock as he poses on the stage.
PREVIEW FOR NEXT WEEK
