WWE Raw Pre-Show (From The WWE Network)
Welcome to the 3/3/14 WWE Raw Pre-Game Show from Chicago, IL at the Allstate Center. This should be a pretty damn interesting night, to say the least!
Josh Mathews said they were sold out tonight in Chicago. The panel was Booker T, Alex Riley, Josh Mathews and WWE Hall of Famer Hacksaw Duggan.
Booker said he was looking forward to The Wyatt Family vs. The Shield. Duggan said he was looking forward to The Usos challenging The New Age Outlaws tonight, so that’s a new match.
Alex Riley said he was looking forward to Aaron Paul being part of Raw tonight.
Booker said this is the time of year that you work all year for. He said there are guys still trying to earn their place at Wrestlemania. Alex Riley said that everyone who used to ride together are switching cars as they set their strategies. Duggan said when he arrived, everyone was all business.
You could hear a sizeable CM Punk chant in the background.
They showed Daniel Bryan’s challenge of Triple H last night.
Renee Young interviewed Daniel Bryan as he and Brie Bella walked into the building. Bryan was informed he was wrestling Batista tonight and sighed and smiled. He said that he can’t be surprised because The Authority keeps putting people in front of him. He said that on Smackdown, Batista said he was going to beat down all the 195 lb. stars and took that to mean him, so he’s going to show Batista that it won’t be so easy to take him down.
The panel discussed Daniel Bryan vs. Batista.
The loud CM Punk chants began again.
They advertised that they would be airing at documentary on The Rock this Saturday. It’s his most recent DVD release.
They aired a video recapping The Shield vs. The Wyatt Family feud. The panel discussed their issues. They then recapped John Cena being attacked and being taken out in an ambulance.
The panel discussed the John Cena situation. The crowd was again chanting for CM Punk.
They aired a great video piece on WWE NXT ArRival and pushed that new episodes will air every Thursday. They noted CJ Parker and Aiden English were backstage tonight. The panel discussed how important the new talents are and Booker said he was once in Australia on a tour with Bo Dallas and admitted he overlooked him but is now very impressed by him.
Renee Young interviewed WWE Tag Team champions The New Age Outlaws. They asked how many times they had to defend the titles against The Usos. Road Dogg said they are fighting champions and tonight, they are putting the young boys down. They kept calling Renee “Tanya” and said they would still be the champs tonight.
They went to the finish of a Los Matadores vs. Curtis Axel and Ryback bout as The Matadores scored the win. Jerry Lawler interviewed the Matadores. They told Lawler he and Torito were very much alike because they are both horny. The crowd chanted for CM Punk. Lawler said they pulled off a terrific victory. They said they are happy to be underdogs and fight from underneath. They said maybe next time they will be WWE Tag Team champions.
The panel reviewed the announced matches.
They then discussed the Brock Lesnar-Undertaker confrontation last week.
Backstage, Renee Young was trying to get into Brock Lesnar’s locker room. Paul Heyman asked her what she knows and what did she hear. Heyman told her she should want to talk to Brock and he has a lot to say, but not right now. He entered the locker room and slammed the door on her.
RAW Results - 3rd March 2014
Announcers - Jerry "The King" Lawler, JBL, Michael Cole
The crowd was chanting for CM Punk immediately.
CM Punk’s music plays and . . . Paul Heyman comes out to the stage and then the ring.
Paul says that he believes that he deserves louder than that. Paul sits in the center of the ring to either pay tribute to Punk’s pipe bomb promos or because he is tired. Paul says that he came here tonight to tell the story of a Paul Heyman Guy. A Paul Heyman Guy that was never truly wanted in WWE.
A Paul Heyman Guy that ‘they’ thought was too small to main event Wrestlemania. A Paul Heyman Guy who didn’t have the right corporate look. A Paul Heyman Guy with too many tattoos. A Paul Heyman Guy who would rebel against Authority. One they did not want since Day One and one they do not want now.
Paul says that he came here to tell the story of a Paul Heyman Guy that had the balls to say what nobody else had the balls to say. He came here tonight to tell you about a Paul Heyman Guy who was born in, raised in, and still lives in . . . Chicago.
Paul introduces himself and this his Pipe Bomb about CM Punk. . . who is not here this evening.
Paul says that the biggest part of his pipe bomb. Paul says that he won’t disagree with the people. He is also disappointed that we will not see CM Punk perform in the ring tonight. If CM Punk was here tonight, he would be doing what he always claimed to do. He would be showing his detractors wrong and proving that he is the Best in the World.
Paul asks why isn’t CM Punk here tonight? Why won’t people talk about CM Punk any more? There is a finger to point and someone to blame. There is someone to hold accountable why CM Punk just wouldn’t put up with it any more. There comes a time when you have to risk your own job security to point the finger at the person who deserves the blame. Paul points the finger at each and every single one of you.
You can boo him all you want, but the truth hurts . . . doesn’t it. Paul says that this is why he finds it easier to lie because it is easier to take. The truth stings, doesn’t it. When CM Punk was with him, CM Punk was the longest reigning champion of the last 25 years. He gave Punk the bosom from which Punk’s soul could be nourished. Then the people took Punk away from him. The people made CM Punk their hero. They would give CM Punk their love, respect, attention, and affirmation.
How far did it get you? You didn’t just take CM Punk away from him, you took CM Punk away from yourselves. Paul blames someone else as well. Paul blames The Undertaker. This entire downward spiral started when they could not end the Streak at Wrestlemania. Paul says that he wants revenge.
How do you get revenge against the Undertaker? How do you kill what is already dead? He wants to take the streak away from the Undertaker. There is only one man on the face of the planet who can do it. He wants the streak beaten and conquered. There is only one man who can conquer that streak and he is Paul’s best friend in the world. He is the conqueror and Beast Incarnate . . . BROCK LESNAR
Brock comes to the stage and he does the Brock Bounce before making his way to the ring.
Paul says that before they address what happened last week, he wants to show everyone what the Undertaker is capable of.
Brock takes the mic and he does not appear to be in a good mood. Brock says that unlike other people, he does not make claims that he cannot back up. The Undertaker attacked him because Brock believes that Undertaker is scared to death of him. There have been many of foe who have tried to break the streak and all have failed. Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and even CM Punk. They are failures.
At Wrestlemania XXX, the streak will get conquered by him . . . BROCK Lesnar
As Brock leaves the ring, Mark Henry’s music plays and he comes out to the stage and he wants a piece of Brock.
Brock moves out of the way but then he comes off the steps but Henry with a forearm to the face. Henry with forearms to the back but Brock sends Henry into the ring steps. Brock takes the ring steps and he hits Henry in the head with them and then he throws the steps into the ring.

Daniel Bryan walks in the back as we go to commercial.
Daniel Bryan makes his way to the ring and he has something to say. Daniel says that is what he likes to hear. The people in Chicago understand one thing. You have a voice. Tonight we are going to hijack Raw. Daniel says that he is not going to leave this ring until one of two thing happen.
He will not leave this ring until Batista comes out to fight or until Triple H comes out to answer his challenge. Last week, he challenged Triple H to a match at Wrestlemania and he flat out turned him down.
The people get it. There are a number of reasons why Hunter turned him down.
Triple H’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring with his wife, and mother of his children Stephanie McMahon (who has taken time out of watching the WWE Network with her children to see Papa or Dad).
Stephanie says that she admires Daniel’s tenacity with all of his losses. She says that if that was her, she wouldn’t be hijacking Raw, she would be too embarrassed.
Daniel says that Hunter may duck the question, but he will not let it rest. He has been beaten and screwed over for six months. Whenever he came close, out comes the Shield, out comes a screwy referee, out comes Kane, and even Hunter pedigreed him. Daniel says that he stands out here unbroken with the people behind him.
Daniel says that he is stronger than ever. Why not him versus Triple H at Wrestlemania XXX.
Hunter has to laugh and he says that is not going to happen. Hunter wants to know what it is about Daniel’s generation. Why can’t he accept his failure? Why can’t he accept his inadequacies? Hunter tells Stephanie that he will call this the Excuses Era or the Blame Era. No one that doesn’t make it . . . they never say that they weren’t good enough. They blame everyone else and they make excuses.
’They’ held me down. ‘They’ screwed me over. ‘They’ buried me. The reality is that anybody who has ever failed here, it is because they were not good enough. That is the reality. That is reality. Daniel’s reality is that he is a B+ player. While that angers people, B+ is pretty good. It is a good little spot. It will take a whole hell of a lot more than a B+ player to get him to lace up his boots at Wrestlemania.
The crowd chants ‘A**hole’ and Hunter tells Daniel it is his turn.
Daniel says that the people can see through the lies. That is why they chant. Hunter says that he is doing what is best and that he is doing what the WWE Universe wants, but Hunter is not listening to the Yes Movement. The only way that Hunter will get to see this is if he beats the crap out of him, and if he does it at Wrestlemania.
Stephanie says that it is very compelling. Stephanie asks why would they listen to this sea of inadequacy. The crowd will turn on a dime. They will turn on him faster than you think. The only people who won’t turn on him are Triple H and her. It is intoxicating that they chant Daniel’s name. People ask him for his autograph. It is easy to get wrapped up in this because of where he came from.
Without her family, Daniel would have nothing. Twenty-one trucks pulled up to this building for him. The ring was set up for him. The digital and social channels are for Daniel thanks to her. Without her family, Daniel would not have the underdog persona or the merchandise. They made him.
Daniel says that Stephanie’s delusions are admirable. Why not put on Hunter’s trunks while Hunter puts on Stephanie’s skirt and they wrestle while Hunter sits back and watches.
Hunter says that he is 90% sure that she would whip his ass too. Hunter says that this is not going to happen. He wants to explain it to Daniel so he understands. Is this kindergarten or grade school? It is not his first rodeo. Hunter says that Daniel’s match at Wrestlemania is not going to happen. Wrestlemania is the Showcase of the Immortals. Hunter says that ‘this’ does not measure up.
Hunter tells Daniel to get out of his ring.
Daniel says that this isn’t Hunter’s ring. He says that this is ‘their’ ring.
Hunter says everything in this arena right now, including them and Daniel belong to them. Hunter tells Daniel to get out of his ring.
Daniel tells Hunter to make him.
Stephanie calls for Kane to clean up their problem. Daniel with a suicide dive onto Kane and he punches Kane.
Stephanie calls for security but the officials come out and they stand over Bryan trying to pull him off Kane. Security comes out and they get between Bryan and Kane.
We go to commercial.

Cesaro lets go and lets Swagger up. Colter says Cesaro and Swagger need to hug it out right now. The hug it out but tension is still there between the two.
Cena will address the Wyatt Family up next.
Cena makes his way to the ring. Cena’s leg is taped up and he is walking gingerly. Cena says that last week he was injured by the Wyatts, and that he will not be competing tonight. Cena says that even though he isn’t competing, he still wanted to come out here. He wanted to come out to here the crowd and the passion of an entire city. He says this place means a lot to him. He knows him and Chicago haven’t gotten along, he still respects this city. Cena says he knows the people want change, and that he respects that. He then says that change will have to go through him. He then specifically targets out Bray, with the Wyatts then cutting to the tron.
Bray says that he has built an empire. He says that he reminds him of a championship horse, who wins and wins. Bray says that one day they slow down, and that is going to set in a new reality for Cena. Bray says he is the reaper, and that he is going to put him down. Bray says he knows why he is afraid. He says he is going to take him off the top, and he won’t know what to do when it is taken all away. It then cuts away. Batista vs Daniel Bryan is up next.
