A flashback to one of the more interesting things to happen on RAW in a long time is shown where Steven Amell of the TV show Arrow got involved with Stardust, Neville, and King Barrett…resulting in a big tag team match booked for Summerslam between the teams of Neville & Amell against King Barrett & Stardust.
Ryback comes out and speaks about his big IC Title win in the Elimination Chamber. He then speaks about the staph infection he has been dealing with and how he “meat hooked that staph infection…shell shocked that infection…and then trailblazed his ass all the way to Portland” which elicits a great crowd response that is obviously not canned noise. He attributes those same cheering fans for giving him the power to return bigger and badder than ever.
Bray Wyatt appears on the screen and whispers…”WE’RE HERE!” Luke Harper gets some rare microphone time before his match with Roman before passing the talking stick to Bray and they promote their Tag Team “Family vs. Family” Match at SummerSlam. Dean Ambrose interrupts Bray’s normally cryptic promo, and literally saying he “doesn’t have much to say and that he wants to watch Roman do what he does best.” Cue Roman Reigns coming through the crowd.
Luke Harper vs. Roman Reigns
Reigns tees off on Harper in the early going and takes down Luke first with a nice clothesline, then follows it up with a clothesline that sends Luke over the top rope and to the floor!
