WWE RAW REPORT: THE TEAMS ARE SET FOR SURVIVOR SERIES, A LOT OF TALKING, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2016-11-07 23:02:00

We begin with a look back at last week's Raw when Mick Foley confronted Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens.

We are in Glasgow, Scotland and your announcers are Michael Cole, Byron Saxton, and Corey Graves.

Stephanie McMahon makes her way to the ring.

She welcomes everyone to Raw.  She says Mick Foley could not be here tonight so she says she is proud to be in Glasgow, Scotland.  She says we are in the midst of a tumutuous time.  Husband has been pitted against Wife, Brother against sister, red versus blue.  She is talking about the Survivor Series.  They will dominate Smackdown in the three traditional matches.  It will be fantasy warfare come to life.  We will see Brock Lesnar against Goldberg.

Stephanie brings out the men who will be representing Raw.  She brings out Kevin Owens.  Out next is Chris Jericho.  The third member of the team is Roman Reigns.  The final announced member is Braun Strowman.

Stephanie introduces the fifth member of the team and it is . . . 

Seth Rollins.

Kevin says this must be a joke because you cannot put him on their team. 

Seth says Stephanie knows if she wants to guarantee a victory over Smackdown, she needs the man on the team.  He says he has been given certain assurances to be on the team.  After they get the job done, there is still business between them and with sparkle crotch.

Stephanie says they will be going against Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, Dean Ambrose, Baron Corbin, and AJ Styles.

Stephanie tells Chris that they should all be on his list.  Will Kevin prove that he is the best champion.  You need to work as a team to show that you are better.  You need to show Daniel Bryan that you are not complacent or lazy.  They picked the best of the best and you are going to prove it at Survivor Series.  Stephanie says you are going to fight like your lives depend on it and because your jobs depend on it.

Kevin says Stephanie is right.  They need to get on the same page.  Kevin and Chris have been taking over Raw every week, but they have made some enemies.  They are man enough to say they might have made some mistakes.  Chris tells Roman and Seth they know that they are angry because they are Universal Champions.  You might be stupid idiots, like everyone in Glasgow, you are their stupid idiots.

Kevin says you all have to listen to the co-captains of the team, Kevin and Chris.

Chris says he likes them and says they have a lot of spunk.  Kevin says they have potential.  If you listen to them, they will be victorious at Survivor Series. 

Kevin tells Roman it cannot be like things were in the Shield.  It died because you are both terrible human beings and you turned on each other.  Chris says Team Kevin and Chris lead by example. 

Seth tells Chris he digs and then he punches Jericho.  Roman punches Owens and Strowman stands around but then he pushes Rollins away and he hits a splash on Jericho.  Strowman with a shoulder tackle to Rollins.  Strowman with the reverse choke slam to Jericho. 

Roman and Owens fight on the floor and Strowman goes to the floor.

Stephanie comes out and says she will give them a chance to get through their differences.  It will be every man for themselves because it will be Roman Reigns versus Seth Rollins versus Chris Jericho versus Kevin Owens versus Braun Strowman tonight.

Brian Kendrick walks in the back and then we take a look at what happened last week during Kendrick's title defense against TJ Perkins.

We go to commercial.

Match Number One:  Noam Dar and Brian Kendrick versus Rich Swann and Sin Cara

Dar and Swann start things off and Swann flips over Dar.  Dar with strikes and an uppercut followed by a drop kick into the corner for a near fall.  Dar with an arm bar.  Cara tags in and Cara clotheslines Dar over the top rope to the floor.  Cara with a suicide dive onto Kendrick and then he sends Dar back into the ring.  Cara goes up top and Kendrick pulls him off the turnbuckles as we go to commercial.

We are back and Kendrick with a cravate on Cara.  Dar tags in and he punches Cara.  Dar with a belly-to-back suplex for a near fall.  Dar with an uppercut and he works on the neck.  Cara with a one arm power bomb and both men are down.  Swann and Kendrick tag in and Swann with clotheslines and a back heel kick followed by a double stomp to the back.  Kendrick with a boot when Swann goes into the corner.  Swann with a jumping rana followed by Rolling Thunder but Dar breaks it up.  Cara with a senton onto Dar on the floor.  Swann with a victory roll for the three count.

Winners:  Sin Cara and Rich Swann

After the match, Kendrick tells Dar that he did not lose this match, Dar did.  He says that Dar is a loser.  He says you lost in the cruiserweight classic because you don't have any talent.  You lost in your home country because you don't have any heart.  He says Dar lost because he failed to recognize he is the best cruiserweight in the world.  You are just like TJ Perkins.  You always fail when it matters the most.  You are a disrespectful . . .

Kendrick attacks Dar but Dar fires back with forearms and a kick to the knee.  Dar with a running kick to the head and Kendrick goes to the floor.

We go to commercial.

We are back and it is time to talk about Goldberg versus Brock Lesnar.

It is time for a look from Goldberg's perspective.  We see his return from three weeks ago.  we see a video of Goldberg in WCW and WWE.  Why did he come back after twelve years?  He got married and has a son and they have never seen him in the ring.  Bill says his last match was against Brock at Wrestlemania XX.  He feels it is fair to give Brock a chance to even the score.  

Brock says for Goldberg's son and wife not to watch the match.

Bill says Brock mentioning his wife and son pisses him off.  The ass kicking he was going to give him was trumped by the ass kicking he is going to give to him now.  He says this match will be the farthest thing from fantasy.  Brock is an animal but Brock will be competing against an animal.  Brock sees a little bit of himself in Goldberg.  Fans have been clamoring for someone to come out and kick Brock's ass.  Brock will be facing someone who enjoys this as much as Brock does.

Stephanie is on the phone and she says she cannot be on Smackdown tomorrow because of a shareholder's meeting, but they are welcome to come to Raw next week.

Sami Zayn enters and Stephanie talks about how her brother does not have the courage to appear on Raw.

Stephanie says that Sami is irritating and he must have bothered Mick enough to get him to agree to let you be the man who is going to face Dolph Ziggler at Survivor Series.  Stephanie says Rusev is the man to face Ziggler.  Tonight, you will face Rusev and the winner will face Ziggler at Survivor Series.  Whoever wins the match tonight BETTER bring back the Intercontinental Title to Raw.

We go to commercial.
