The new generation starts for Monday Night Raw because the display will probably be on the Performance Center in the meanwhile. That goes to be the case for nearly anything else, together with Wrestlemania as formally introduced this night time. I’m no longer positive what to anticipate, however Steve Austin, Edge and Undertaker are going to be within the development (with out many extra other people). Let’s get to it.

Opening collection.

The announcers are within the ring to welcome us to the display and hype up the whole thing taking place this night. After a clip of AJ Styles speaking about Undertaker and Michelle McCool final week, right here’s Edge to break. He presentations us a package deal of the whole thing that has came about with Randy Orton over the previous couple of months, which is somewhat the emotional ordeal. Back within the enviornment, Edge talks in regards to the lengthy street between the 2 of them over the past twenty one years.

Edge knew that their careers would intertwine and that’s what they did, as they fought over the Intercontinental Title after which forming Rated RKO. They each owe Mick Foley for pushing them to this new degree however Edge took a lesson from Foley that Orton by no means did: grit. After the entire surgical procedures and day without work, Edge fought again and were given right here once more. He didn’t have his dad pushing him this a ways as a result of he used to be raised by means of a unmarried mom who broke her again to assist get him right here.

Then Beth Phoenix got here out to provide a scientific replace on him, however Orton took her out with an RKO. What Orton didn’t know used to be that Beth used to be right here to announce Edge’s retirement. The beatings and accidents had been an excessive amount of, however Orton dragged Beth out of the outlet. At Wrestlemania, if Orton has the heart, the fit is on in a Last Man Standing fit.

Earlier as of late, Becky Lynch arrived in an 18 wheeler.

That’s damaged up as smartly and Dolph Ziggler is in at #19.

Ziggler and AJ double staff McIntyre till Ziggler punches AJ within the face. That approach a suplex from McIntyre as Karl Anderson is in at #20, giving us McIntyre, Styles, Ziggler and Anderson. Everything settles down and it’s EDGE (THAT FREAKING LIAR!) at #21. Spears abound and we get an Edge vs. Styles showdown, capped off by means of any other spear. King Corbin is in at #22 (YOU SHALL NOT BE ENTERTAINED!!!) and cleans space with Ziggler till Edge dumps AJ (who will have been favoring his wrist).

Matt Riddle is in at #23 and sure he will get within the shoe turn. Riddle knees Edge down…and is eradicated by means of Corbin. Luke Gallows is in at #24 and McIntyre throws Corbin out (I knew I appreciated him for a reason why). Randy Orton is in at #25 for a couple of RKOs ahead of the staredown with Edge. Stereo Rated RKO clotheslines eliminate the OC and it’s Roman Reigns in at #26. A spear hits Ziggler and Reigns dumps him, making me like him just a little bit extra.

Reigns no sells McIntyre’s chops and it’s Kevin Owens at fortunate #27. Cannonballs abound and there’s a Stunner to Reigns. Another one hits Orton and it’s Aleister Black in at #28.

Back on the Performance Center, the announcers discuss Wrestlemania being moved to the Performance Center. McIntyre vs. Lesnar will nonetheless be going down.

We return to 2 weeks in the past, with McIntyre popping out and kicking Lesnar within the face thrice in a row.

Lawler brings out Undertaker for the contract signing and Undertaker energy walks to the hoop, the place he turns the desk over in anger.

Post wreck, we see AJ’s promo from final week.

Undertaker remains to be within the ring and waits on AJ, whose song performs a couple of occasions however he doesn’t display up. AJ and the OC display up on display with the contract, which used to be by no means within the ring. He’s the person who challenged Undertaker final week as a result of Undertaker is the person who gained’t simply pass away. You don’t see Michael Jordan or Brett Favre appearing up and taking on a place, however you already know Undertaker will probably be at Wrestlemania.

It’s previous Money Michelle’s fault as a result of she makes his mud off the hat and coat so she may have issues. Undertaker must let it pass and prevent sticking his nostril in OC industry. AJ is keen to pay for Undertaker’s assisted dwelling after Wrestlemania as a result of Undertaker will probably be resting in peace. Styles indicators the contract and sends Gallows and Anderson to take the contract to him.

That’s a large unfavourable however AJ after all talks them into it. They come into the sector and lay the contract down, however the gong hits and the lighting fixtures pass off. Back up and he’s in the back of them, which means the beatdown is on. With Anderson and Gallows down, Undertaker indicators the contract and stuffs it in Anderson’s mouth as a disgusted AJ seems to be on from the display.

Andrade vs. Rey Mysterio

Non-title, Zelina Vega is in Andrade’s nook and Asuka is on statement. Andrade begins rapid and knocks Mysterio round simplest to have Rey get to the apron. Vega grabs the leg regardless that, permitting Andrade to dropkick him out of the air. Back from a wreck with Mysterio selecting up the tempo and looking to load up the 619. Andrade pops up and hits a spinning elbow for 2 as Asuka continues to rant in Japanese with one or two English phrases sprinkled in. Three Amigos are countered into the 619 and the highest rope splash finishes Andrade at 6:52.

Result: Rey Mysterio b. Andrade – Top rope splash (6:52)

Video at the ladies’s Elimination Chamber fit.

We take a look at Becky Lynch arriving once more.

Here’s Becky for a talk. She dedicates this one to Shayna Baszler as a result of she is aware of Shayna is staring at. Shayna has been skilled to damage other people however then she noticed this ginger champ as the most productive of all time. Becky wishes to provide an explanation for this to an animal scumbag like Shayna: Becky is the prey that killed its prey and Shayna can minimize via everybody else like she has. Then there’s Becky regardless that and she or he’s other. She needs Shayna to take into consideration what it’s going to imply when she loses. At Wrestlemania, she’s proving that Shayna’s lifestyles is a lie.

We glance again at Charlotte and Rhea Ripley final week.

Kevin Owens accepts Seth Rollins’ problem to a fit and it is sensible to have it on the Performance Center. That provides Owens a house box merit as a result of Rollins by no means frolicked right here. This is the place Owens went during the toughest enjoy of his occupation together with his WWE tryout. He wasn’t meant to be in WWE as a result of he wasn’t their more or less man. Rollins himself mentioned that ahead of and after Owens used to be signed however Owens turned into a man round right here. Then Owens goes so as to add another reminiscence to that checklist when he beats Rollins at Wrestlemania.

Here’s Steve Austin (introduced as the best of all time, which is now carried out to each himself and John Cena) for a talk, entire with cans of his IPA. Austin says if you wish to know what 3:16 Day is all about, give him a h*** yeah. We minimize to a shot of the empty seats and Austin asks for it once more. Byron Saxton provides him a VERY enthusiastic H*** YEAH and Austin reads some jokes off a card, pronouncing like 3:16 Day approach flipping other people off and…..a number of gibberish as a result of Austin has the cardboard the wrong way up. As he reads those, Byron holds up giant playing cards with a ranking for each and every comic story.

Austin will get a Five for his final comic story ahead of pronouncing Byron has been so useful all the way through this complete time. Therefore, he can come right down to ringside and have a good time 3:16 Day with Austin. Byron comes down and beverages ahead of the Stunner approach beer can also be fed on. Cue Becky Lynch with a cooler however Austin brings up her Stunning her the final time they had been in a hoop in combination. They drink so much (with another Stunner to Saxton) to finish the display.
