WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: DOES SETH GET HIS BELT BACK?, DOES ANYONE HAVE THE ADVANTAGE GOING INTO MONEY IN THE BANK?, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2015-06-11 21:57:07
We are in Lafayette, Louisiana and your announcers are Byron Saxton, Tom Phillips, and Jerry Lawler.

We see ladders around the arena while the Money in the Bank briefcase is hanging over the ring.

Dean Ambrose’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring through the crowd.

Dean says it has been a wacky week. He says that you can do a lot for a handful of beads in Louisiana. Dean tries to speak French, but he does not succeed so he says ‘Let the Good Times Roll’. That is what he did in New Orleans. He took his title to party on Bourbon Street. Dean wants to thank everyone who joined him. We see some of the photos Dean took on Monday. Dean says he was playing roulette with the WWE Championship belt and he saw a commercial for Raw and he got in a cab and went to the arena. Dean mentions that he is thankful for Roman saving a front row seat for him.

We see footage of the main event from Raw when Seth Rollins lost to Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury due to Dean’s distraction.

Dean says he hopes Seth is watching and he hopes Seth remembers what it felt like when you are left alone and everything crumbles around you. He hopes Seth remembers seeing Dean standing over him holding the title belt. If you don’t remember, he will repeat it all on Sunday and he will leave the WWE Champion.

Seth Rollins’ music plays and he comes to the ring. He says he is tired of this crap. Seth says he knows that Dean thinks he is different from every other challenger, but he is no different than the scum in this arena. You are not in Seth’s league. On Sunday, he will take HIS WWE Title back. Why not give him the title back before he has to take it.

Dean tells Seth to take a chill pill and he says it is all a gag. Dean says if it is that important to you, go ahead and take it. Dean says he didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers.

Dean puts the belt down in the ring and before Seth can pick it up, Dean says it is a replica belt he got at the merchandise stand. Dean says he doesn’t know where he left the real title belt. It is either in New Orleans or somewhere on the road to New Orleans. Dean says he has partied so much it feels like Tuesday to him.

Dean says he is going to find the title belt and he will make sure to bring it on Sunday and he will leave with it.

Kane comes out and he says that Seth is done with Dean. On Raw, you got to choose your opponent to prove you could win on your own. You chose Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble and you failed. If you lose on Sunday, you will lose the WWE title. You will have no help from the Authority on Sunday. You will be on your own, just like you will be on your tonight against Dolph Ziggler.

We see Miz and Ryback in the back and they walk into commercial.

After the match, Big Show’s music plays and he comes out on the stage.

Show congratulates Ryback and he says that it is impossible to impress him. He has been in the ring for twenty years and has been a giant his whole life. He has the license to do what he wants when he wants. He will take the title on Sunday. You had your moment on Monday by hitting Shellshock, but Sunday will be a whole different ballgame. No matter how hungry you get, you will not be able to digest his fist. The Big Guy is no match for the Big Show.

Ryback says if you want to step into the ring, not only will you have to deal with a Raging Ryback, you will have to deal with thousands of Ragin’ Cajuns. He tells Show to bring it in the ring.
