By Richard Trionfo on 2014-11-24 23:00:34
We are back and Kane is at his concession stand looking to make sales. The manager asks Kane if he likes to burn things and he will not be cooking anything. She tells Kane that if any chip goes missing he will have to pay for it out of his paycheck.

Rusev and Lana are in the ring.

Lana says that this is not fair. She says that America is not fair. What kind of country forces its will upon its people? Rusev speaks in Bulgarian. He says that he does not care who is in charge of Raw. He will not be brainwashed by you dumb Americans. He tells Lana we go.

Daniel appears on the TitanTron and he reminds Rusev he can send down a referee for the Battle Royal against the whole roster. Daniel says that he will give Rusev another chance. He says that he will have someone to supervise Rusev.

Sergeant Slaughter makes his way to the ring.

Rusev wipes away the spittle from his face as Slaughter addresses him.

An American flag comes down and Lana reacts like she has contracted some horrible disease.

Slaughter tells Rusev to repeat after him.

Lana sheepishly recites the Pledge of Allegiance.

Rusev has Lana leave the ring and he gives her the title belt and his medal.

Rusev says something to Slaughter and it looks like we are going to have a fight. Slaughter removes his hat and Jack Swagger’s music plays.

Swagger makes his way to the ring and Rusev with kicks as he enters the ring. Rusev with kicks to the ribs. Swagger with a belly-to-belly slam and then he puts Rusev in the ankle lock but Rusev rolls over and gets out of the ring.

We are back and Kane has trouble with the cash register so he gives out food. Santino and Larry are in line and Santino tells Larry there is nothing to worry about.

Santino orders a hot dog with mustard and Kane puts the mustard on Santino and Kane says he is a big fan.

The announcers talk about the Main Event from Survivor Series when Big Show turned on Team Cena and caused Cena to be eliminated.

Big Show is walking in the back and we go to commercial.

We are back and we find out that Kane will face Dean Ambrose on Main Event.

Big Show makes his way to the ring and he is in a good mood.

He says that he wanted to come out here and make sure that we are all cool. Show says that he saw some things online and saw the reactions backstage. Some think he committed some atrocities and he is a ‘bad guy’.

Show says that he is a human being. A human being that made a mistake. Human beings make mistakes all the time. No one watching this cannot say that they have never made a mistake.

Show says not to misunderstand what happened. Show says he despises the Authority. They took his house and made him do terrible things to people he respected. People like Daniel Bryan. Physically he was strong. He is a giant. He was not asked to be born this way. He says that he has a medical condition that makes him this large and freakishly powerful. On the inside he is like all of you. He has fears. He has a family to provide for and you know what you would do for your family.

Last night at Survivor Series, he made a snap decision and he panicked. He surveyed the scene. Dolph Ziggler was unconscious and John Cena could barely stay on his feet. He saw three healthy guys across the ring. Show thought his team would lose so he did what he thought he should do.

If you were in his shoes, you would do the honorable thing . . . and forgive him. Show says that he gets it. You come to a show and you want to cheer and boo. Now, this is not the appropriate time for it. This is serious. Show says that he is a good person.

If he could have done it again and go back in time, knowing what was going to happen, he would have done things different. Not to sound like a jerk, but for the past 20 years, he has been putting his body on the line for each of you so maybe you owe him a mulligan. Forget what happened at Survivor Series and pretend that it never happened.

Show starts to get indignant and he yells at the people for judging him for the decisions he made. How dare you judge him when you have nothing to put on the line. This is his life. He hears the whispers that Big Show is a traitor. Show says that he is not a traitor. He says that he deserves respect.

Show says that he hears those cowards in the locker room whispering that he is a traitor. He tells the cowards to come out and say it to his face instead of whispering it behind his back.

Erick Rowan comes out and makes his way to the ring.

Show wants to know if Erick is serious. The upside down Sheamus has something to say? Maybe if John Cena came out . . . he has a legitimate gripe. Show says that he is surprised that Rowan came out here.

Show asks Rowan if he is a tough guy. He tells Erick that this ring is made for men.

Rowan takes off his mask and Show tells him that he has no place being in here. He tells Rowan to go back up the ramp before he gets hurt.

Rowan says that he doesn’t like bullies and he attacks Show and he hits a spinning heel kick. Show leaves the ring.

Seth Rollins is in the locker room and Jamie Noble says that it will be Shield 2.0. Seth says they don’t measure up to his other tag team partners.

Dolph Ziggler enters and he says that Seth may not believe in Joey and Jamie, but he asked his 1.4 million twitter followers to vote for them.

We go to commercial.

We are back and we see photos of the Divas Title match from Survivor Series.

Winner: Brie Bella

After the match, AJ gets in the ring with a mic and she says that it takes two Bellas to be the champion. Two of you don’t amount to half the woman that she is. She says that if you want cheat and kiss your way to a title. It is about time that someone breaks it to the Bella. Talent is not sexually transmitted.

We go to commercial.

Ryback grabs a bag of peanuts and he tells Kane he forgot his nuts.

Renee Young is with John Cena and Dolph Ziggler.

John says after he was knocked unconscious by a 500 pound traitor named Big Show, he saw what Dolph Ziggler did against most of Team Authority. Dolph says their jobs were on the line and he said that he was going to find a way to survive. Somehow, the odds were stacked against him and they needed a miracle. That miracle was a man named Sting. He helped changed the course of history.

Cena says because of Sting and Ziggler, the Authority is gone. John says that Daniel Bryan has put the power with the people. They will determine who Seth Rollins wrestles with against Dolph Ziggler and John Cena.
