WWE RAW REPORT: WHO IS SORRY NOW?, WHO ARE THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDERS FOR THE TAG TITLE, NEW MATCH FOR ROADBLOCK, ARE KEVIN AND CHRIS STILL FRIENDS, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2016-12-05 23:04:00

We start off with a look back at previous episodes of Raw when Kevin Owens faced Seth Rollins and had help from Chris Jericho.  Then we see tension between Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens while Roman Reigns found a way to get a title match at Roadblock.

We are in Austin, Texas and your announcers are Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Byron Saxton.

Seth Rollins makes his way to the ring and he is going to talk to the people of Austin.

Seth says something has been bubbling under the surface for the last few months.  Seth says he wants Triple H.  He says it needed to be said.  Seth said he made some choices.  He put together the Shield and they changed the face of WWE forever.  When the time was right, he had to dismantle the Shield.  He learned it is not about your choices, but the consequences. 

Triple H bet against Seth Rollins and anointed Kevin Owens as his golden boy.  After he pedigreed Chris Jericho on the roof of a car it was a message to Triple H.  Seth says he would love to call out Triple H right now, but we know that is not how you do it.  He says he gets to Triple H by taking the Universal Title from Kevin Owens.  He cannot beat Kevin Owens while Chris Jericho is still a part of the equation.  Seth says he has to remove that piece of the puzzle.  We saw that without Chris Jericho, the Kevin Owens Show was not ready for prime time.

Kevin Owens' music plays and he makes his way to the stage.

Seth says he was looking for Kevin.  He wants to know how is Chris Jericho and how is your friendship.

Kevin says it is rude to interrupt people.  He says he knows what Seth is trying to do.  You pedigreed him on a car.  You ask about their friendship because they had a fight.  Kevin says it is funny to him that best friends fight, but you wouldn't know because you have no friends.  You stabbed your Shield brothers in the back the first time you had the chance.  Kevin says best friends fight and best friends make up.

Seth asks if Chris is answering Kevin's calls and texts.

Kevin says they are both very busy people.  Chris was recuperating from Seth's heinous attack.  Kevin says he was busy getting gifts for his best friend.  Kevin says he got three gifts for Chris.

Seth says he hopes that is enough to compensate for Chris helping you to keep the title.

Kevin says he is tired of hearing this.  He says he is a fighting champion.  Kevin says he lost to Roman because of Seth and the thought of what Seth did to his best friend.  

Seth tells Kevin to put the title on the line tonight.  

Kevin asks if everyone would like to see that but it is not happening.  He beat Seth two weeks ago.  Kevin says he has a match against Sami Zayn thanks to Mick Foley.  He is defending the title at Roadblock against Roman Reigns.

Kevin says he secured a few matches for Chris.  He says that Chris will get a shot to become the United States champion tonight when he faces Roman Reigns.  At Roadblock, Seth will be facing Chris Jericho.  Kevin says the third gift is a match that Seth is about to have and he will be facing.
