WWE RAW REPORT: THE WILD CARD RULE, TAKING OUT THE TRASH, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2019-05-06 22:59:00

Sami asks what do you have to complain about tonight?  You already got Roman Reigns from Smackdown.  You are going to be getting a match between Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship.  What do you got?  Let's be fair.  Sami says he saw the whole thing go down and you thought it was great.  Sami says he liked it too.  The difference between you liking and him liking is that after the first few hours are gone, you are still you.  You have to live with the miserable person you see in the mirror.

Sami says fixing yourself is hard.  It takes hard work.  Complaining is easy and it is the easy way out and you are all cowards.  

Braun Strowman interrupts and makes his way to the ring.

Sami takes off his jacket and hat and then he goes to the floor.  Sami goes into the crowd when Braun goes to the floor.

Braun runs into the crowd and confronts Sami and Braun chases Sami up the ramp and to the back.

While the Lucha House Party makes their way to the back, Braun continues to jog behind Sami and Sami is trapped.  Sami tells Braun this has nothing to do with you and Sami tries to get under the gate and thankfully there is a cameraman outside the building.  Braun picks up Sami and tosses Sami into a dumpster.  Braun asks who is the coward now.

Braun hears beeping and we see the trash truck pull up to the arena and Sami is placed into the trash can.

Match Number Two:  Kalisto, Lince Dorado, and Gran Metalik versus Three Guys

Kalisto with a kick and Metaliks with a springbaord drop kick.  Dorado with a cross body.  Kalisto tags in and he hits a splash off Dorado's shoulders.  Dorado with a dive and Metalik with a springboard drop kick.  Kalisto tags in and hits Salida del Sol followed by an elbow drop from Metalik and Dorado with a shooting star press for the three count.

Winners:  Lince Dorado, Kalisto, and Gran Metalik

We see Natalya and Naomi in the locker room and Natalya reads a note from Lacey Evans and she is requesting their presence at ringside and proper attire.  Dana Brooke asks Lacey if she got it.  Naomi says it cannot be a coincidence that they are in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

Miz is still sitting outside Shane's locker room.

Match Number Three:  Ricochet versus Robert Roode in a Money in the Bank Wild Card Spot in the Match on the Line Match

Roode kicks Ricochet in the corner and the referee warns Roode.  Roode with a chop and Irish whip but Ricochet floats over and flips over Roode's back.  Ricochet with a head scissors and drop kick.  Ricochet is sent to the apron and Ricochet with a shoulder and Roode pushes Ricochet off the apron when Ricochet goes for a springboard move.  Roode goes to the floor and sends Ricochet into the apron and then hangs Ricochet over the apron and slams the throat into the edge of the apron.  Roode puts Ricochet's head in the ring skirt and punches Ricochet.  Roode gets a near fall.

Roode with a reverse chin lock.  Roode with a clothesline for a near fall.  Roode returns to the reverse chin lock.  Roode runs into boots from Ricochet and Ricochet goes for a rolling drop kick but Roode catches Ricochet and catapults Ricochet to the turnbuckles.  Ricochet lands on the turnbuckles and hits a moonsault.  Roode with a forearm to the back of the head and Ricochet with a European uppercut.  Roode with a spinebuster for a near fall.  Roode tries for a superplex but Ricochet punches Roode to the mat.  Ricochet sets for the 630 splash and hits it for the three count.

Winner:  Ricochet (retains Spot in Money in the Bank Ladder Match)

We take a look back at what happened last week on Raw between Rey Mysterio and Samoa Joe.  At Money in the Bank, Rey will get his title match against Samoa Joe.

Rey Mysterio and Dominic are walking in the back and Heath Slater stops by to say hello.  Rey goes into the locker room and Dominic walks away.  We see Samoa Joe following Dominic in the hallway.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Samoa Joe is talking to Dominic and he talks about how he has to act like he has been here.  He mentions that Dominic was happy to put his dad on his shoulders last week.  Is that because you are trying to embarass him?  Joe tells Dominic to tell his father that he may have thought he was the better man last week, but he is looking forward to defending his title against him at Money in the Bank.

Before the next match, the four Raw women in the Money in the Bank match make their way to the ring to watch

Match Number Four:  Lacey Evans versus Allie Katrina

Lacey backs her opponent into the corner and kicks her.  Lacey with a hesitation Bronco Buster followed by a Woman's Right for the three count.

Winner:  Lacey Evans

After the match, Lacey welcomes her guests and complains about not getting a proper RSVP.  You were out here to see what a proper lady is capable of.  The same will happen when Becky Lynch loses everything she worked for thanks to a Woman's Right.  One of you may win the Money in the Bank Ladder Match and she hopes that you are smarter than you look.  If you think of cashing in the briefcase after Lacey wins the title, you will regret whatever opportunity you had to become the champ.  Y'all will come up short just like the Man will come up short.

Becky Lynch's music plays and the women part the aisle to let Becky make her way to the ring.  Becky goes after Lacey and Becky with punches.  Lacey goes to the floor and Becky follows.  Lacey is sent back into the ring and Becky goes for DisArmHer but Lacey goes to the floor and goes up the ramp.

Daniel Bryan is in the back and he is pondering something.  He says Kofi Kingston's constant shilling as champion, shilling pancakes, merchandise, and consumerism is a danger to society.  He will need to eliminate Kofi as a role model for the benefit of society.  He is here to correct course for human history to regain the WWE Championship and become the Planet's Champion again.

We see The Usos looking into the hallway and they make their way into the hall and walk away from the locker room.

Match Number Five:  Ivar and Erik versus Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder in a Non Title Match

Ryder drop kicks Erik out of the ring and Hawkins with shoulders to Ivar.  Ryder tags in and hits a forearm.  Hawkins tags in and punches Ivar.  Ryder tags back in and kicks Ivar.  Ivar misses a clothesline and he drop kicks Ivar.  Hawkins tags in and they hit a side Russian leg sweep and flatliner combination.  Hawkins with a drop kick and Ryder with a boot to Ivar for a near fall.  Ivar with a double stomp to Hawkins and Erik tags in and Ivar with a knee and Erik with a near fall.  Erik with an arm bar but Hawkins with punches.  Hawkins lands on his feet on a belly-to-back attempt.  Ryder tags in and knocks Ivar off the apron and then hits a drop kick on Erik.  Ryder drops down and Ivar goes over the top rope to the floor.  Hawkins with a clothesline off the apron but Erik with a knee.

Ryder with a drop kick to Erik.  Erik avoids a Rough Ryder and Erik with a drop kick.  Ivar tags in and they hit Viking Experience for the three count.

Winners:  Erik and Ivar

We go to commercial.

We are back with the Firefly Fun House.

Bray welcomes everyone  We cut to Mercy the Buzzard and he is eating something but denies what it is.  Bray wants to know what is in the box.  Abby wants to know what Mercy is hiding and Mercy yells at Abby.  Bray sees that is what is left of Rambling Rabbit.  Mercy says he despises Rambling Rabbit because of his bohemian beliefs.  Bray says it is perfect to express yourself however you want.  You can be forgiven no matter what, just like he was.  Bray says Mercy should be rewarded.  

It is time for picnic time.  Bray is with a group of young fireflies who look like they have been watching Raw.

We take a look at what happened between AJ Styles and Seth Rollins during their match to try to build drama between the two.

Seth Rollins is in the back and he tells AJ Styles it does not matter if that forearm was an accident or if you did it on purpose.  You made your point perfectly clear when you walked away after hitting him in the mouth for a second straight week.  The next time you walk away from him, it will be with two black eyes and a broken face.
