Monday Night RAW Spoilers: Edge, R Truth, John Morrison & Extreme Shockers!
By Sean Farrell
The show begins with R-Truth coming to the ring. Truth grabbed the mic and cut a promo saying he’d be winning his first-ever WWE title at Extreme Rules. Truth then claimed he’d be a fighting champion, but John Morrison interrupts and tells Truth he got lucky last week on RAW and had help in beating him. Truth says Morrison is just trying to take his championship shot away and Morrison challenged Truth to a match.
MATCH 1: John Morrison defeated R-Truth with Starship Pain. After the match, Truth attacked Morrison. It should also be noted but probably edited out for PG reasons that Truth grabbed a cigarette from a fan and started smoking it. Long beat down here by Truth…this is an ALL OUT R-Truth heel turn.
MATCH 2: Dolph Ziggler (w/ Vickie Guerrero) defeated Evan Bourne. Evan Bourne went for “Air Bourne” but missed, he however landed on his feet. Ziggler then nailed him with the Zig Zag for the pin. Ziggler has brown hair tonight by the way.
They will show a tribute to Edge and announced that Alberto Del Rio would be holding an Edge retirement party this Friday on SmackDown!
Miz Segment: Miz came out for a promo which was about John Morrison replacing R-Truth in the Extreme Rules triple threat match. Miz says that the match will take place inside a steel cage. During the promo, Miz sat in a chair and started running down London and the UK fans. Sin Cara interrupted then John Cena as well. The RAW GM chimes in and booked John Cena and Sin Cara vs. The Miz and Alex Riley for tonight.
MATCH 3:Sin Cara and John Cena defeated The Miz and Alex Riley. Miz bailed out during the match leaving Riley to fend for himself. Sin Cara hit Riley with a top rope move and Cena hit him with an Attitude Adjustment for the win.
A new Awesome Kong vignette will air.
MATCH 4:Eve Torres defeated Nikki Bella.
Michael Cole is knighted in an in-ring segment and he demands that Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross both kiss his feet. Of course, they refuse and Swagger then forces good ole’ JR to kiss Cole’s bare feet.
Michael Cole returned to the Cole Mine and joined Josh Mathews. JR is gone by this point trying to remove the foot stank I’m guessing.
MATCH 5: Sheamus defeated Santino Marella. Santino was helped to the back after the match.
MAIN EVENT: CM Punk defeated Randy Orton. The London crowd was split with this one. Orton hit Punk after the match with an RKO to end RAW.
