July, Week 1, Year 1
Anchorage,
AK
Tonight
on Monday Night RAW in Anchorage, it's a huge championship main event
as the NEW WWE Champion AJ Styles will defend his newly won
championship against former champ Dean Ambrose! Also tonight, after
Bray Wyatt won the Money in the Bank contract last night and won
himself a golden opportunity, Stephanie and Shane McMahon have agreed
to host a Golden Opportunity Battle Royal tonight where the winner
will have the choice to challenge for the WWE United States
Championship, the WWE Intercontinental Championship or an opportunity
to challenge a top contender.

Opener Promo
The
new Mr. Money in the Bank, Bray Wyatt comes out to talk about his
victory and once again outlines his metaphor about how he is the
spider that is about to land on a very unsuspecting shoulder. He also
brings up his manifesto about The Authority's decline in dominance
after WrestleMania and how The Wyatt Family has risen up to grab that
power and with Bray as Mr. Money in the Bank, it is only a matter of
time before he becomes the true leader of the WWE.
The
Club, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows come out and say that although
they did not win the WWE Tag Team Championships last night at Money
in the Bank, their good brother AJ Styles won the WWE Championship
and so Gallows and Anderson are out here to host a proper “Too
Sweet Celebration”. They mention that right now AJ and Ambrose are
in Stephanie and Shane McMahon's office signing contracts and making
it official but they'll be bringing him out shortly. In the meantime,
they start talking about The Shield and how The Club won't rest until
they capture the WWE Tag Team Championships. It is here that they are
interrupted...and not by The Shield.

The
Miz, alongside Maryse, is interviewed and is asked about the Golden
Opportunity Battle Royal tonight. He says that since he is always one
step ahead of every other WWE Superstar, he is above such things.
Instead of going to war with seven other Superstars, he has gone on
to issue a challenge to a top contender right here tonight in frosty
Alaska. He has challenged John Cena and when he defeats Cena, Miz
will then go on to challenge the WWE Champion AJ Styles! Chess not
Checkers.

NEW
WWE United States Champion Randy Orton comes out, watches the footage
of himself defeating Chris Jericho to win the WWE United States
Championship last night at WWE Money in the Bank and takes in the
moment to celebrate his victory. He talks about Jericho's nonstop
complaining on social media and before Orton gets to address he is
immediately interrupted by Jericho. They trade barbs as it looks like
“The Viper” is going to best Jericho in the promo battle before
Jericho drops Orton with a low blow. A brawl ensues that Randy
eventually seems to get the upper hand in.

Jack
Swagger comes out and talks about competing in last night's Money in
the Bank ladder match and how winning that contract would have given
his career the revitalization that he thinks it needed. Now that
Money in the Bank is in the past he needs to concentrate on his
future and if he can't challenge for the WWE Championship then maybe
he'll issue a challenge and if it gets accepted then he will shock
the world with the biggest victory of his career. Swagger calls out
“The Beast” Brock Lesnar who comes out and laughs off but
ultimately accepts Swagger's challenge. Brock ends the segment by
telling Swagger that if he is that hungry for career suicide then
Brock will lend a helping hand and assist in ending Swagger's
delusion. Before Swagger can say another word, he is dropped by “The
Beast”. A brief brawl ensues that even sees Swagger getting in a
German Suplex before Brock ends things with a vicious clothesline.
