REPORT:
ZitatAlles anzeigenWe go right to the ring as JoJo introduces RAW General Manager Kurt Angle. He comes out to a pop as the "you suck" chants start up.
Angle welcomes us to RAW. He talks about the personal problem he's been dealing with over the past few months, which was revealed last week when he introduces his "long lost son" Jason Jordan, the newest member of the RAW roster. Angle says he was nervous at first but this has been exciting. Angle says he's been spending time with his son over the past week and Jordan will have his first RAW match tonight. Angle says he's given Jordan the opportunity but it's up to him to make it happen.
Angle also talks about how Braun Strowman interrupted last week's match to determine the SummerSlam opponent for WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. Angle says he has decided that Lesnar will face... the music interrupts Angle and out comes Strowman marching to the ring. Braun says the next words out of Angle's mouth better be his name or else. Braun says he won his match at Great Balls of Fire, unlike Samoa Joe or Roman Reigns. Braun says he does not fear Lesnar, Lesnar fears Braun. Braun says he's going to break Lesnar in half and become the next champion at SummerSlam. The music interrupts and out comes Joe next. Joe is here to make this really simple for Angle and Braun. Joe says fortunately for Braun, they haven't crossed paths much since Joe arrived. Joe introduces himself to Braun, as the man who tamed The Beast and came within seconds of putting him to sleep. Joe says he is the man that does not fear Lesnar. And he definitely does not fear Braun. Joe says the only reason he's not knocking Braun's teeth out for what he did last week is because he just stopped Reigns from losing to him for the third straight time. Joe tells Angle that we should let Braun and Roman handle their business at SummerSlam but Angle needs to give The Beast to Joe. Reigns' music hits next and out he comes. Reigns says Joe hasn't done anything around here, neither has Braun. Reigns says in 5 years he's been a Tag Team Champion, a United States Champion and a three-time WWE Heavyweight Champion. Reigns says he's won the Royal Rumble, been a part of 5 WrestleMania and 3 of those he main evented. The last one he retired The Undertaker. Reigns asks what Joe and Braun have done here. He'll wait... that's what he thought, they haven't done anything yet. Reigns says now let's show the world what he's about to. Angle gets in between everyone. He says they all make valid points, that's why he's changed his mind again. Angle announces Joe vs. Reigns vs. Braun vs. Lesnar for a Fatal 4 Way at SummerSlam. Oh it's true, it's damn true. Angle's music hits and he goes to leave but Joe stops him. Joe isn't happy. Angle says we're done here. Joe says he's the only man who should get a shot. Braun doesn't care how many people are involved, all he cares about is piling bodies. Reigns tells Braun to shut up and decks him. Braun grabs them both but Joe and Reigns double team him out of the ring. The assault continues until Braun gets knocked over the barrier. Joe with a cheap shot to Reigns as they go at it now. Joe brings it into the ring. Braun ends up coming in and manhandling Reigns, tossing him. Braun goes for Joe but security hits the ring. Braun destroys them all and tosses one guy high in the air, causing him to hit the floor hard. Joe goes for Braun and applies the Coquina Clutch. The locker room empties out but they can't get Joe to break the hold. Reigns spears Braun and Joe and a few Superstars who were in the way. The ring empties as Braun plants Reigns with a big powerslam and stands tall as his music hits.
