News and Rumors before RAW:
We're four weeks away from Money in the Bank, and were already seeing story lines start to develop. Tonight we'll see what happens with U.S champion Rusev and Jack Swagger, what happens between WWE Champion John Cena and #1 contender Seth Rollins, and more!
Monday Night Raw
Raw starts with the music of Jack Swagger, the man who beat Rusev by count-out last week.
Match #1: Jack Swagger vs. Fandango
This is light work for the Real American. He works Fandangos legs all match and ends up winning with the Patriot Lock
Winner: Jack Swagger
After the match Zeb Coulter grabs a microphone. Zeb says that last week Swagger beat Rusev by count-out, but he knows he capable of more. He wants a shot at Rusevs United states Championship.
Lana makes here way to the ramp, and she's not with Rusev. She says that this is typical of an American to win by a fluke victory, and then act like they deserve something more.
Rusev runs through the crowd into the ring and attacks Swagger. Rusev locks Swagger in the Accolade and holds on until Swagger passes out. How cowardly.
Match #2: Big Show vs. Tyson Kidd
Show throws around Kidd all match. Show grabs Kidds throat and is about to hit a chokeslam, but Kidd low blows him. Shows giant back is in the way and the ref doesn't see the low blow. Kidd throws himself on Show and picks up a BS victory.
Winner: Tyson Kidd
Shows downfall continues.
Match #3: Kane vs. Sheamus
Kane beat Sheamus in a great match during the U.S title tournament, and this is no different. These two brutes put on a slugfest, but in the end Kane is able to hit a huge chokeslam for the win.
Winner: Kane
Match #4: Jericho vs. Hurricane
Jericho has no problem defeating the superhero here. Hurricane ends up tapping to the Lion Tamer.
Winner: Chris Jericho
Match #5: Titus O'Neil & D-Von vs. Heath Slater & Santino Marella
Santino and Slater just can't touch O'Neil and D-Von. Once again O'Neil hits Clash of the Titus on Santino for the win.
Winner: O'Neil & D-Von
Match #6: Seth Rollins vs. Matt Hardy
These two man are actually similar in many ways, and that makes for a great matchup. This is an impressive showing by both men.
Hardy manages to hit the Twist of Fate on Rollins, but he falls on the floor from fatigue. The titantron flashes and once again a creepy Wyatt Family promo haunts Matt Hardy.
The distraction allows Rollins to hit the Skywalker and pin Hardy for the victory!
Winner: Seth Rollins
Rollins grabs a microphone. He says that he feels unstoppable, he feels like he can't lose, and he wants John Cena face to face right now. Cena comes down to the ring.
Rollins tells Cena that he better hold that title close to him, because he only has four weeks left with it. Cena tells Rollins that he has a bunch of fluke victories, and he can't wait to see what he's really capable of.
Rollins hits Cena on the head with a microphone and starts raining down punches on him. Cena tries to get up, but Rollins hits him with a Curb stomp. Rollins celebrates with Cenas championship, what a slimy bastard. Rollins can't be trusted.

Winner: Bad News Barrett
Barrett and Axel start to beat down The Big Guy, but the music of Rey Mysterio plays and out comes the luchador to save Ryback! Ryback and Axel will have a match at Payback, and after Barrett attacked Mysterio last week and Mysterio stopped Barretts attack this week they might have one as well.
Match #3: John Morrison vs. Cesaro vs. Shelton Benjamin
These three men meet Dolph Ziggler at Payback in a fatal four way for the I.C championship. This match serves as a great preview for that contest, and the winner will gain a lot of momentum.
If this triple threat is any indicator the fatal four way at Payback will be a treat. This is an amazing contest. The end comes with Benjamin hitting Paydirt on Morrison, then allowing Cesaro to uppercut Benjamin and pin Morrison for the win.
Winner: Cesaro
Ziggler has to be somewhere watching that fearing that that title won't be his for much longer.
Match #4: Jey Uso vs. Miz
Last week Jimmy Uso defeated Mizdow, so this was a match Miz would have liked to win, but he can't get it done. Jey hits Miz with a super kick out of nowhere, and then hits the superbly splash for the win.
Winner: Jey Uso
It's looking like The Usos might leave Payback with the tag titles after that.
