June 24 , 2013 Monday Night RAW results The June 24 , 2013 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on June 24 , 2013 at North Charleston Civic Center in North Charleston , South Carolina . Summary . After having his first bout with Randy Orton stopped ( contentiously ) due to injury and winning the second via count - out , Daniel Bryan didn ’ t mince words at all on Raw when he promised to defeat The Apex Predator in their scheduled rubber match on Raw . And while Orton is typically content to be the strong , silent type , he didn ’ t sugar coat his increasing disdain for the submission expert and demaded Bryan " shut up and fight . " Unfortunately , the aggression between the two Superstars boiled over to such a degree that the bout was stopped cold before it could even get going and a Double - Disqualification verdict was handed down . . . though that didn ' t stop them from nearly destroying the ringside area in a feral , all - out brawl that required an entire crew of referees to halt . Happily for Bryan , however , a quick powwow with Vickie Guerrero ( and some smooth threatening of Brad Maddox ' s well - being ) landed him one final shot at the rematch for later in the evening . Sheamus felt the sting of Team Rhodes Scholars last week in a Handicap Match , but The Celtic Warrior dished out some payback when Christian teamed up with him to even the odds on Raw . The recently returned Captain Charisma kept up his strong comeback , getting in some heavy offense on his former rival Cody Rhodes . A tag - in to Sandow kept the Scholars in the hunt , but the brainy brawlers were left to eat crow when Christian managed to reach Sheamus , who took advantage of a brief Rhodes Scholars miscommunication to hit Cody with a Brogue Kick straight to the ‘ stache . Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned , especially when the scorner happened to be said woman ’ s former best friend . Exhibit A of this is Kaitlyn , who has unleashed a flurry of ruthless aggression following AJ Lee ’ s psychological and physical conquest of the former Divas Champion at WWE Payback . The “ Hybrid Diva ’ s ” punching bag of choice in Charleston was Aksana , who received a match with the former champion after a scuffle on SmackDown . Despite AJ ’ s attempts to distract Kaitlyn by mocking her in a blonde wig and muscle suit , the “ Hybrid Diva ” earned the win with a spear to Aksana ’ s gut . Still , it didn ’ t stop the new champion from rubbing salt in the wound by recruiting Big E Langston to re - enact the Catfishing from a couple of weeks ago . If not for Layla ’ s timely restraint of Kaitlyn in the ring , Raw might have seen its second all - out brawl in the first half - hour . Chris Jericho left SmackDown with some unfinished business against Alberto Del Rio , and The Ayatollah of Rock ‘ n ’ Rolla got another chance against the vicious World Heavyweight Champion in Charleston on Raw . It may be that Jericho took Del Rio ’ s recent chicanery for a lack of heart , but The Essence of Excellence certainly proved Y2J wrong in a brutal , 20 - minute contest that may as well have unfolded in a dimly - lit South Carolina alleyway as opposed to a wrestling ring . Things kicked into high gear after Del Rio countered the Codebreaker and Y2J paid him back in kind , reversing the Cross Armbreaker into a potentially match - deciding Walls of Jericho that was broken up thanks to an attack by Ricardo Rodriguez . With both manager and champion swarming Jericho , things looked dire until the World Title rematch - ready Dolph Ziggler swarmed the ring and flattened Del Rio with the Zig Zag … before giving Jericho one of his own as payment for Jericho ' s Codebreaker last Friday . If there ’ s one reliable rule of Monday Night Raw , it ’ s that unveiling ceremonies for video game covers rarely pass without incident . And rest assured , Team Brickie did Big Johnny proud , carrying on his legacy by unveiling a pair of truly preposterous custom covers for the latest WWE video game . Granted , they had motivation for their creativity – a contest that will allow the WWE Universe to create the true alternate cover for the game – but the results were truly bizarre . First , Vickie unveiled a cover featuring the McMahon - Helmsley family ( subtle , that ) , and Maddox responding with a design featuring himself front and center , flanked by the images of John Cena and CM Punk . Happily , Jerry Lawler stopped the madness by unveiling the true cover , with great ostentation : a dynamic design featuring none other than The People ’ s Champion , The Rock . Now that ’ s electrifying . Ryback rules again , but it wasn ’ t exactly easy going when the “ Human Wrecking Ball ” faced off against The Great Khali in his first match since falling to John Cena at WWE Payback . The Punjabi Titan was relentless in his offense on the mighty Ryback , powering his opponent into a corner and raining chops upon the “ Human Wrecking Ball ’ s ” head . Ryback found himself similarly besieged when he attempted to move to the center of the ring . But the big man found his opening when Khali set up for the Punjabi Plunge , kicking the giant ’ s knees out and hauling him up for Shell Shocked ( ! ) , taking an extra lap with Khali around the ring to demonstrate his strength and snarling “ I ’ m still hungry ” after scoring the pin . If nothing else , that certainly bodes ill for his next opponent , though it ' s unlikely that particular Superstar is averse to the challenge . The word around the WWE Universe is that Mark Henry ’ s sneak attack against John Cena deserved an Academy Award , but there was at least one Superstar who was thoroughly unimpressed with the acting chops of The World ’ s Strongest Man : Cena himself . The Cenation Commander - in - Chief did not pull punches in his missive to the WWE Universe , calling Henry out for “ disgracing ” not only his family but previous Superstars who conceded their careers to Father Time . But he did concede to one of Henry ’ s points : the WWE Title must be earned . And with their match set for Money in the Bank , Cena promised Henry that he would try – and fail – to earn his place in the pantheon of WWE Champions , and would find out what the world already knows : The Champ is here . They said they wanted a piece of The Shield , and that ' s what Jimmy & Jey Uso are going to get after securing their spot as the No . 1 contenders to Seth Rollins & Roman Reigns ’ Tag Team Championships . With Tons of Funk and 3MB standing in their way , Rikishi ’ s twin sons unleashed their trademark , high - octane offense in a coordinated strike to earn their way to the No . 1 contenders ’ spots . Taking advantage of a Brodus splash to 3MB off the apron , The Usos focused their attention on Tensai , dropping the big man with a Samoan Drop - Superfly Splash combo for a decidedly sweet victory … one that even the menacing presence of Rollins & Reigns couldn ’ t dispel for the workhorse tandem . CM Punk ’ s got a lot on his mind , and it ain ’ t just the Chicago Blackhawks . There ’ s been trouble a - brewing in Punk ’ s own trusted circle following Brock Lesnar ’ s attack of The Straight Edge Superstar on Raw last week , and despite his reluctance to air dirty laundry in front of the WWE Universe , Punk conceded to Paul Heyman ' s invitation to a public powwow . Punk , for his part , had two orders of business . No . 1 : Punk told Heyman to inform Lesnar that The Second City Saint was coming for him . And No . 2 : More than anything else , Punk wanted the truth from Heyman as to whether or not The Anomaly was acting on his orders . Heyman vehemently denied the allegations , swearing on his children that Lesnar acted alone and – despite the “ professional jealousy ” between his clients that led Heyman to keep them separate – he would never represent anyone against The Second City Saint . The heartfelt tell - all seemed to move Punk enough for a friendly embrace , but the conflicted expression on Punk ’ s face seemed to say more than either man , in all their eloquence , ever could . Darren Young was truly ready for Prime Time on Raw when he mounted a challenge against CM Punk and acquitted himself incredibly well in defeat , nearly earning a win over The Straight Edge Superstar before finally falling to the former champ ’ s fury . With Punk still getting his sea legs back under him , “ Mr . No Days Off ” mounted a stiff challenge against The Second City Saint and actually kept Punk on the ropes for a good chunk of the match . A Gut Buster to the former WWE Champion seemingly wrapped the bout up for Young , but Punk retaliated and tapped D . Young out in seconds with a ruthless Anaconda Vise . Titus O ’ Neil swarmed the ring to avenge his friend ’ s loss , but that brought out an unlikely cavalry in the form of Curtis Axel , who helped his fellow “ Heyman Guy ” send The Prime Time Players away … much to the seeming chagrin of Punk himself . Mark Henry is many things : World ’ s Strongest Man , former World Heavyweight Champion and award - caliber actor , but he is also – to borrow a phrase from a certain director he said reached out to him – an abysmal winner . Henry wasn ’ t remorseful in the slightest just hours after John Cena condemned his trickery from the previous week , mocking the “ puppets ” who bit into his retirement fakery hook , line and sinker and vowing once again to cement his legacy with a WWE Championship win . Evoking his own words from the previous week , Henry promised to the WWE Universe that at Money in the Bank , he ’ d be “ coming home ” with the WWE Title in his massive clutches and left without another word . The sweetest victories are the hardest - earned ones , and given Daniel Bryan ’ s quest to prove himself , his long - awaited win on Raw was perhaps the sweetest of all . With the WWE Universe naming his rematch with Randy Orton as a Street Fight , Bryan unleashed the full scope of his skills in an anything - goes environment against The Apex Predator in a bout that literally took the two around the entire arena . A strike to the head with a steel chair gave Orton the early momentum , but Bryan churned back to life , powerbombing Orton through a table off the apron and hacking away at The Viper with kicks and kendo sticks alike before plying the “ No ! ” Lock . Orton used the kendo stick to escape the hold , but Bryan dodged the RKO and struck The Viper with the cane , weakening his arm and wrenching in the “ No ! ” Lock once again , torquing The Viper ’ s neck with the stick to finally , at long last , tap Orton out . But it was what happened afterward that was truly shocking , as Orton , in perfect position to strike Bryan in retaliation , instead offered his hand and left the former World Champion to celebrate his win . Those who want respect , give respect .
