WWE Raw Results:
– The show opened with John Cena cutting a promo to set up another United States open challenge. He was interrupted by Kevin Owens, who announced an NXT Championship open challenge. They invited anyone from the back to come to the ring and pick which championship they’d like to fight for. Neville answered and chose the NXT Championship.

2. Nikki Bella defeated Summer Rae. Nikki pinned Summer after a Rack Attack.
3. Sheamus defeated Randy Orton. Before the match, the Money in the Bank ladder match participants all got mic time as Kane explained they’d be facing one another in one-on-one matches. Sheamus won by disqualification when the fight went to the outside and Orton attacked him with a chair. After the match, Orton continued the attack and hit Sheamus with an RKO.
4. Kane defeated Dolph Ziggler. Rusev walked out on crutches and harassed Lana, who appeared to hurt her ankle. Ziggler was distracted, allowing Kane to hit a chokeslam and win the match.

8. J&J Security defeated Seth Rollins. The Authority gave Seth Rollins the chance to pick his opponent for the night’s main event. He got into an argument with J&J Security, so chose to face them in a 2-on-1 handicap match. Rollins also made Kane angry, so Kane decided to be in J&J’s corner. Ambrose distracted Rollins with the stolen WWE World Heavyweight Championship, allowing Joey Mercury to get a surprise pin. After the match, Ambrose hit Dirty Deeds on Rollins and posed at the top of a ladder.
