Monday Night Raw
Raw opens with The Animal Batista! Batista comes down to the ring in skinny jeans that look painfully uncomfortable, and a sweater. Batista says that he is a man of his word, and last night (or last month) was proof of that. He battered CM Punk to a pulp. He embarrassed him, and he's ready to move past that "waste of space".
Batista is interrupted by non other than Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder. Ryder says that they haven't forgotten that attack last week. Ryder says that Batista thinks he can just jump Hawkins and Ryder and get away with it... Are you serious bro? Batista says that he would be more than happy to take them on face to face right now!

Match #2: Corey Graves vs. Matt Hardy

Winner: Matt Hardy
Corey Graves looks on in shock as Matt walks up the ramp high-fiving fans.
After a break: Triple H and Randy Orton are in the ring.

Tonight it's going to be a triple threat match between three veterans on the Raw brand. Chris Jericho, Rob Van Dam, and Goldust. The winner of that match will take on Randy Orton for the WWE Championship at No Way Out.
Orton grabs a mic and immediately objects to this. He asks how Triple H could have possibly decided that three has beens should be coming after Ortons Championship. He demands an explanation from Triple H. Triple H says that Orton has a very valid point, but he has a valid explanation. He's the boss and he'll do what he wants.
HHH's music hit's and Orton is in the ring looking frustrated.

Match #3: Miz vs. Sin Cara
Sin Cara is looking very determined here, and he's 100 mph from the start. Sin Cara is coming right at the Miz, and he just doesn't have an answer for the ridiculously fast paced offense. Sin Cara ends up winning with a swan-ton from the top.
Winner: Sin Cara

Match #5: RVD vs. Chris Jericho vs. Goldust
RVD and Goldust are both the youngest wrestlers in this match at the age of 43. Wow. Watching this match you would have guessed these three men have stepped into a time machine. This was an epic display of wrestling. The technical style of Jericho, high flying style of RVD, and Brawling style of Goldust meshed well perfectly. The three men know that they don't have too many chances like this to come, and they sure made the most of it. The ending came with Rob hitting a kick on Goldust, only to turn around and receive a codebreaker. Jericho pins RVD for the win!
