RAW Results - 21st October, 213
Live From: Memphis, Tennessee
Announcers - Jerry "The King" Lawler, JBL, Michael Cole

Last Monday night, Goldust and Cody Rhodes faced Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns for the Tag Titles in a No Disqualification Match. In order to even the odds, Big Show made an appearance through the crowd to help Cody and Goldust win the titles. What will Triple H do tonight?
We are in Memphis, Tennessee and your announcers are Jerry ‘Home is where the heart is’ Lawler, Michael ‘Dundee’ Cole, and John ‘Beale Street’ Layfield.

We will not have to wait to see what Triple H does because he makes his way to the ring with one of the principal owners of WWE, Stephanie McMahon.

We see what Big Show did to Brad Maddox on Friday night and we are told that due to the after effects of the punch, Brad Maddox is not on Raw tonight.

Stephanie says that everyone is jealous. Sunday marks the WWE’s most grueling pay per view, Hell in a Cell. John Cena will return to face Alberto Del Rio for the World Title. AJ Lee will defend the Divas Title against Brie Bella. CM Punk will face Ryback and Paul Heyman in a handicap match . . . inside the cell. The VACANT WWE Title will be filled by Daniel Bryan or Randy Orton with Shawn Michaels as the guest referee. Shawn guaranteed a winner and a new WWE Champion.

Hunter says the man that guarantees a new WWE Champion is everyone’s choice as the referee. They chose Shawn because they trust him. Hunter says that he trusts Shawn Michaels. Hunter says that he respects Shawn Michaels more than any other man in the WWE.

Big Show is live via satellite and he cannot believe that either of them use the word respect. Hunter and Stephanie treat people with disdain.

Hunter says that he treats Show with disdain because he deserves it. Show never amounted to anything in his life. Show made millions of dollars but he wants Hunter to bail him out. There is no free ride with him. Hunter says that he is glad that Show is done.

Show reminds Hunter that he is suing him for the money that he is owed and for slander. Is it because Hunter woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Show tells Stephanie to shut up. She says that he is gone in five seconds as she counts down and the TitanTron now shows the Raw graphic.

Hunter says that the once great career of Big Show goes out with a whimper.

Hunter wants the first competitors to come out.

Instead of Dean Ambrose, Daniel Bryan makes his way to the ring.

The goal is not to win or pin his shoulders to the mat. He is not looking to make Paul Heyman submit. The plan is to incapacitate Ryback . . . it is to put him to sleep. Then Punk will enjoy watching Heyman wriggle around like a worm on a hook. Then he will slam Paul’s face into every inch of steel in the structure because that is what he deserves.

Stephanie McMahon and Triple H are in the ring with the official contract signing table and chairs.

Randy Orton comes out first. He is followed by Daniel Bryan.

Hunter says the special guest referee needs no introduction but he will give him one anyway. He brings out Shawn Michaels.

Stephanie welcomes everyone to the official contract signing while the crowd chants for Shawn Michaels. Stephanie says that as the face of the WWE, Randy Orton has the floor.

Randy tells Daniel he has to give credit where credit is due. Every week he has beaten him down physically, mentally, and emotionall, but he keeps getting back up. After Hell in a Cell, Daniel will not be getting right back up. Orton says that he has survived against the Undertaker at Hell in a Cell. He has beaten Sheamus and John Cena inside that cell. He can say with the utmost confidence that Daniel has no idea what he is going to get into. On Sunday, he will make sure that Daniel’s first Hell in a Cell will be his last.

Randy signs the contract.

Daniel says that he expects nothing less than threats like that from him. Randy is a ten time champion and he has pushed him to the limit each time. If it wasn’t for the Shield, the Authority, or Triple H, he would be standing in the ring as the WWE Champion.

Daniel says that he will smash in Randy’s face because he has done it again. He has two words for Randy. Thank you. He thanks Randy for making him more than a B+ player. He thanks Randy for exposing himself as a patsy. He thanks Randy for exposing Triple H and Stephanie as the spoiled brats that they are.

Hunter says that he has seen guys like Daniel come and go. People like Jericho and Rob Van Dam. They were top guys. They were popular, but they were never the one. Hunter says that it has to be said. If any of those guys had been the face of WWE back in the day, everyone would be working for Ted Turner.

Daniel has no idea what he is involved in. When he steps inside Hell in a Cell, he will prove that all he is is a B+ player.

Daniel says that Hunter sure talks a big game behind that suit. He tells Hunter to trade in that suit for wrestling gear to show how good he is.

Hunter says that proves how out of it Daniel is. If he gets back in the ring, it will be to fight a star. It would be to face The Undertaker, the Rock, or Brock Lesnar. It would not be against Daniel Bryan. He fights A+ players. He fights stars because they want to fight a star.

They wouldn’t waste their time fighting someone like Daniel. Shawn Michaels shouldn’t have ever wasted his time training Daniel.

Shawn joins the conversation. He did not waste his time training Daniel. He is good. He is very good. Shawn asks Hunter what has happened to him. What happened to the guy who raged against the machine with him? What happened to the guy who drove the tank into WCW? What happened to the guy who played strip poker on live TV? He does not care what Hunter’s title is with the company. He does not care that he trained Daniel Bryan. He cares that the people voted for him to make sure that there is a new champion on Sunday.

Randy says that he told Hunter last week what Shawn was doing. He says that Shawn has an agenda against him.

Hunter says that at the end of the day, Shawn will do what’s right.

Shawn will do what is right for the business he loves and what the people love. What does he have against Daniel? Is it because he is smaller? Is it because of the beard? Is it because he marches to the beat of a different drum? Is it because after everything that Hunter has thrown at him, Daniel has proven him wrong?

Randy tells Daniel he cannot beat him. On Sunday, he will take this A+ player straight to hell. Orton starts saying Yes.

We see a truck pull into the garage on the TitanTron. The truck drives into the arena.

Bryan with a flying knee to Orton and he leaves the ring as we go to credits.
