WWE RAW REPORT: DO WE HAVE A WWE TITLE MATCH AT ELIMINATION CHAMBER?, WHO ACCEPTED THE US OPEN CHALLENGE? DID THEY MAKE YOU INTERESTED IN EITHER CHAMBER MATCH?, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2015-05-25 23:02:54
We are back and it is the start of the third hour, so it must mean time for the John Cena US Open Challenge.

John makes his way to the ring and he is given his usual serenade by the crowd.

John says for over ten years, you, the WWE Universe can be summed up in five simple words. Let’s Go Cena . . . Cena Sucks.

There are some of you who fight with him, and some who fight against him. John tells the people chanting ‘Let’s Go Cena’, you believe in what he believes in. Hustle, loyalty, respect. You never give up when your backs are against the wall. They have shared the agony of defeat and the triumph of victory. We have formed a fraternity, a family, and a bond that will never be broken no matter how hostile they may be. For those of you chanting ‘Let’s Go Cena’, he is eternally grateful for you providing your unwavering support over the years.

Then there are the others who chant, among other things ‘Cena Sucks’. Why? Because for over ten years, they have been clamoring for someone who is everything that he is not. Someone to knock him down and keep him down. This is where it gets difficult for Cena sucks people. Name after name, hopeful after hopeful have tried . . . and failed.

John says he was forcefully introduced to the latest hopeful last week on Raw, a man named Kevin Owens.

Last Monday, Kevin Owens debuted on Raw and was incapacitated. He broke the internet and then two days later, he broke his best friend Sami Zayn in half. That is why the ‘Cena Sucks’ people think that Kevin Owens is the man who will keep him down. That is why you think Kevin Owens will be the ones who think that things need to change around here.

Maybe you won’t chant ‘Cena Sucks’ on Sunday because you will chant ‘Fight Owens Fight’. John says that is the sound of you tuning into Elimination Chamber and see things you will not believe. You may not believe your ears because you might hear ‘Let’s Go Cena . . . Fight Owens Fight’. That does not mean Win Owens Win.

Kevin proved that he knows how to start a fight. On Sunday, we will find out if he knows how to finish a fight.

It is Monday, not Sunday, so it is time to see who will accept the US Open Challenge on Memorial Day.

The Cast of Entourage make their way onto the stage and they have something to say. John says the challenge is open to anybody, so which one of you are going to step in the ring with him.

While they would love to fulfill a childhood fantasy and get in the ring, they are here to introduce a Superstar who will take John up on the challenge. He is a Long Island Boy . . . Zack Ryder.

The New Day make their way to the ring and we go to commercial.

We are back and the New Day is in the ring and Big E wants everyone to be quiet. Xavier says this is outrageous. They are being persecuted for being positive? They are being forced to defend the title in the Elimination Chamber against five teams. Big E says they could lose the titles and Kofi says no one wants to see it.

Big E wants everyone to pipe down. Even you people in this decrepit and decaying arena that is going to be torn down with a hockey team that has left . . . and will forever be known as losers. Even you can recognize champions.

Xavier says New Day Rocks.

They clap but the crowd is not singing the proper song.

Kane comes out and he tells the New Day of their concerns. You have a one in six chance of winning in the Elimination Chamber, the same as any other team so the match is fair. Unfair would be your match tonight. You are facing the team of Cesaro and Tyson Kidd . . . and Los Matadores . . . and The Ascension . . . and The Prime Time Players . . . and The Lucha Dragons in a ten on three handicap match.

We are back and we are told that Daniel Bryan will appear on MizTV on the Kickoff Show before the Elimination Chamber.

We take a look at why Dean Ambrose has been unable to sign the contract.

We see an alternate angle of Seth Rollins pushing the cameraman into Dean Ambrose to lead to Ambrose knocking out the cameraman.

Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Seth Rollins, Kane, Joey Mercury, and Jamie Noble make their way to the ring.

Seth says what you just saw doesn’t matter. The fact of the situation is that Dean Ambrose physically assaulted a cameraman and he was justifiably arrested earlier tonight. Seth says Dean is nothing more than a common thug who takes pride in his lunatic fringe nickname. Recklessness can only get you so far. It almost got him a shot at his title last week. This week, he is behind bars.

Stephanie says that workers behind the scenes deserve respect for their hard work. Stephanie points out that the cameraman Dean hit is the father of newborn triplets. We cannot handle such hazardous situations for our employees. They are here to foster a nurturing environment. Stephanie says that since this is an ongoing investigation, they cannot comment.

Hunter says that they were going to give Dean the opportunity to fight Seth Rollins at Elimination Chamber, but all he had to do is sign the contract. That unstable mental state came back to bite him, but that did not happen.

Hunter is going to announce . . .

Roman Reigns makes his way to the ring and he goes after Seth Rollins but Joey and Jamie pull Roman off. Kane goes after Reigns and it is a four on one attack. Kane blocks a Superman punch and choke slams Reigns.

Seth holds the contract in front of Roman and has something to say to him.

The police van pulls into the arena and Dean is at the wheel. Ambrose makes his way to the ring and he has a nightstick. Dean takes care of Mercury, Noble, and Kane. Rollins takes Dean down. Kane tries for a choke slam but Dean hits the ropes and clotheslines Kane. Rollins grabs the nightstick but Reigns and Ambrose hit Rollins with it.

Noble, Mercury, and Kane work over Ambrose and Reigns, but Reigns with an uppercut to Kane and a spear to Mercury and Noble. Reigns is sent to the floor and he hits Kane with a Superman Punch. Dean with a double underhook DDT to Kane.

Reigns gives Dean the contract and he signs it before Hunter and Stephanie do what JBL suggested and tells them to go off the air.

We go to credits.
