Raw results
In-ring: Like last week, Cody Rhodes is opening the in-ring action following a 20-minute opening segment. On commentary, Damien Sandow commented on his World Title MITB briefcase before Fandango's music played. Summer Rae led out Fandango, then the announcers recapped Fandango's recent run-ins with The Miz.
1 -- CODY RHODES vs. FANDANGO (w/Summer Rae)
Less than a minute in, Fandango's music played. Suddenly, Rosa Mendes emerged on-stage with Miz, who was dressed like Fandango. Miz did some awful dancing to distract Fandango, allowing Rhodes to roll up Fandango for a quick three count.
Post-match: Fandango angrily beat down Rhodes, then Sandow joined the beat-down from the commentary position. Miz hit the ring and delivered some left hands to clear the ring, sending the heels to the floor. Raw GM Brad Maddox then came out and offered some dance-related puns before noting everyone can see what he's going to announce next - Rhodes and Miz vs. Fandango and Sandow. Maddox said it's next.
WINNER: Rhodes at 1:07. Miz was even awful intentionally trying to be awful. WWE has his character trying way too hard.
2 -- CODY RHODES & THE MIZ (w/Rosa Mendes) vs. DAMIEN SANDOW & FANDANGO (w/Summer Rae)
Back from break, the match was in progress. Cole recapped all of the participants in and out of the ring, including a returning Rosa in a face role. Cole then accused Miz of wearing an outfit from the 'N Sync reunion last night, prompting JBL to note he's repeating his material from during the commercial on the App. Cole proceeded to cancel out the simultaneous "second-screen experience" by saying it's a different audience, so he can repeat himself. Isn't the whole point of WWE's App marketing for Raw to continue during the commercial break so you "never stop watching Raw?"
A few minutes in, Fandango and Summer Rae decided to walk out on Sandow, leaving Sandow alone in the ring. Miz capitalized by dropping Sandow with Skullcrushing Finale for the pin and the win. In the ring, Fandango, Rhodes, and Rosa stood tall before Fandango introduced himself from on-stage. Fandango's music played as Miz mockingly "danced" in the ring.
WINNERS: Rhodes & Miz at 2:57.
In-ring: For the "comedown segment," Total Divas castmember JoJo was in the ring to ring-announce the following match. Out first was Natalya, accompanied by Cameron and Naomi. Brie Bella was then introduced, flanked by Nikki and Eva Marie.
4 -- NATALYA vs. BRIE BELLA
As the bell sounded, Cole talked about the "Total Divas" TV ratings on E! Chaos quickly broke out ringside, causing a distraction for Natalya. This allowed Brie to pin Natalya, getting a victory back over Natalya, who beat her at Summerslam.
WINNER: Brie at 1:39.
Post-match: Divas champion A.J. Lee walked out on-stage. A.J. said she just watched last night's episode of "Total Divas" and it was insane. A.J. recapped the ridiculousness of the show, going for a harsh dig of Natalya's fiancee not being "much of a man." A.J., the heel, got a pop for running down the show, which she paused to let play out. A.J. then looked into the ring and called them a bunch of cheap, interchangeable women. She said they are women who have turned to reality TV because they weren't good-enough to be actresses or champions. As A.J. told this to their faces, the Bellas and Eve shouted, "Say it to our faces."
A.J. continued that she re-defined the Divas division and they are trying to tear down her work. She said they were handed 15 minutes of fame, then said she didn't get here because she was cute or came from a famous wrestling family or sucked...up to the right people, but because she is good. A.J. said they can walk all the red-carpets they want, but they will never be able to lace up her Chuck Taylors. The Bellas continued to chirp off-camera. A.J. called them worthless excuses for women who will never be able to touch her. "And that is reality," A.J. said in conclusion. A.J. skipped, then the Bellas and Eve mocked her skipping. On commentary, JBL said he thinks "crazy just spoke some truth."
