July 21 , 2014 Monday Night RAW results The July 21 , 2014 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on July 21 , 2014 at the American Airlines Arena in Miami , Florida . Summary . What to do when Plan A fails and Plan B has stumbled out of the gate ? If you ’ re Triple H , you take matters into your own hands . The Game , who was left kicking dirt after John Cena retained the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Battleground and Seth Rollins was pummeled into retreat by Dean Ambrose , took it upon himself to take control of the crown jewel ’ s fate , promising to name Cena ’ s SummerSlam challenger by night ’ s end . His hesitance to name either of his lieutenants — Randy Orton or Kane — as The Champ ’ s foe led to yet another bout of infighting among the corporate cabal that was soon joined in physical fashion by Roman Reigns . The Game devised a plan : a Handicap Match that would either feed the former Hound to his dogs , or see him rise above them . The old saying about houses divided against themselves proved truer than ever on Raw : Not only can they not stand , but they ’ re likely to blow over with a light gust of wind , to say nothing of a Superman Punch . Roman Reigns , having ran his mouth in Raw ’ s opening moments , packed the wallop necessary to back it up when he knocked off the fragile alliance of Randy Orton & Kane in Raw ’ s opening match . Despite a shaky , albeit steady , united front early in the match , “ best for business ” proved to be a tenuous glue between The Viper and the former Director of Operations : Further squabbles between the team caused Kane to target Orton when The Viper refused to tag in and Reigns capitalized . The Big Dog blasted the demon with the 1 - 2 combo of the Superman Punch and Spear for the win , and for all his own talk , Randy Orton wanted no part of the former WWE Tag Team Champion when all was said and done . Having bought a ticket to Raw , Brie Bella was there to support her sister Nikki in person and spirit . But without her twin in the ring beside her , the magic was in short supply for the Fearless Diva when Stephanie McMahon organized a four - on - one gang - up of the former Divas Champion . Brie , however , couldn ’ t help herself , and jaw - jacked her way into a physical confrontation with Stephanie that saw her slapped and banned from ringside all before the match even started . Things only went downhill for Nikki when it did start ; Stephanie ’ s fearsome foursome feasted upon the hapless Nikki , with Alicia herself doing the honors by executing a scissor kick to the Bella ’ s back . The legend grows . Not only did Bo Dallas notch his 16th uninterrupted victory by knocking off Damien Sandow on Raw , but the Miami faithful was likely glad to see it happen after The Enlightened One competed in the guise of recently departed local hero LeBron James . Alas , the only place Sandow took his talents was the middle of the ring , despite a ferocious offense that left his inspirational opponent seeing … well , stars . Like all true winners , though , Bo only needed one moment to seize his opening — in this case , it was when Sandow took too long to drop the Elbow of Disdain . Bo simply evaded the signature strike and pounced with the running Bo - dog to hit 16 - Bo . Salvation was nowhere to be found for Chris Jericho , who was ambushed by The Wyatt Family on the WWE App one night after knocking off the Family patriarch , Bray Wyatt , in a one - on - one clash at WWE Battleground . With Y2J disposed of , The Eater of Worlds turned “ The Highlight Reel ” into his hellish pulpit and preached his own baptism by fire , vowing that his holy war with Jericho has just begun . Stealing the show ? Check . And Dolph Ziggler stole the new Intercontinental Champion ’ s thunder to boot as well , knocking off The Miz in some well - deserved retribution after the underhanded Battle Royal elimination of The Showoff that returned the vaunted title to Miz ’ s clutches . The Awesome One seemed content , at first , to bask in his own glory in the non - title contest , taunting Dolph from afar and scurrying away when The Showoff ’ s offense veered too closer to the “ Moneymaker . ” Miz did dive into the deep end eventually and had Dolph on the defensive for much of the match , fish - hooking The Showoff ’ s own face with his fingers in an ironic bit of mockery . The former World Heavyweight Champion blasted his way into the match through sheer force of will , escaping the Figure - Four Leglock and gambling a frozen - rope superkick on a gimpy leg . Miz dodged the move , but Dolph ’ s quick - strike follow - up of a Zig Zag proved too much for the champ to bear . Looks like you can take the “ fr ” out of “ frenemies ” : Paige is done playing nice with AJ Lee , turning her talons on the Divas Champion moments after their second unlikely victory as a tag team . Their own lingering issues didn ’ t present a challenge so much as the unity of their opposition : the random but effective combination of Natalya & Emma . Paige took the bulk of the offense from the two submission experts , tagging in AJ only after she ’ d suffered the Dil - Emma and Sharpshooter in quick measure . AJ pounced quickly , kneeing Natalya with the Shining Wizard while she still had Paige locked up , then following up with the Black Widow to tap The Queen of Harts out . The celebration was short - lived , though : Paige kept up the friendly façade for all of two minutes before she threw AJ to the ground and hauled her over the announce table . He did it ! He went old - school ! Zack Ryder has been promising a return to his roots on “ The JBL & Cole Show , ” but it was Fandango who got fist - pumped in the face when The Ultimate Broski rode the good vibes of Layla & Summer Rae to knock off the two - faced two - stepper . Initially , the continued dissention of the “ Slayers ” ( their name ) spurred Fandango into a strong opening against The Ultimate Broski , though Zack stayed in the game and was quick enough to pounce with the Rough Ryder . Even though ‘ Dango reached the ropes with his foot , Layla secured the win for Long Island Iced - Z by shoving his foot off the cable , enabling the ref to count to three and handing Ryder a big Raw win , plus some serious kisses from Summer & Layla . What can we say ? Chicks dig the bro - tee . What started as an evening of delight quickly turned sour for Stephanie McMahon , who introduced hip - hop superstar Flo Rida only to find herself hauled out of the building in handcuffs when all was said and done . Having conclude some unfinished business with Heath Slater , Flo took to the stage for a medley of “ Good Feeling , ” “ Wild Ones ” and “ Let the Good Times Roll ” before Stephanie was approached by two officers — called by none other than Brie Bella — arrested , escorted out of the building and later charged with aggravated battery despite her persistent , vehement protests . And , cue the “ Yes ! ” chants . “ Kof - E ” might need some work yet . The budding tag team of Big E & Kofi Kingston fell in brutal fashion to their predecessors in portmanteau , RybAxel , and it seems that Xavier Woods saw the whole thing coming . Even though Big E thundered out of the gate against the two bullies , RybAxel unleashed a rabid attack against the former Intercontinental Champion that forced him to call in Kofi as a reinforcement . E disposed of an interfering Axel to give Kingston the reins ; Ryback proved his worth by reversing a top - rope cross body from The Boom Squad General into a pin . As upset as Kofi and Big E were after the match , Woods seemed madder : Popping out of nowhere in a white suit , the PhD candidate declared it was time for the three Superstars to “ take ” what was rightfully theirs . America isn ’ t enough for Rusev . The Super Athlete extended the reach of his dominance to India on Raw , defeating another giant in The Great Khali one night after a ( slightly lucky ) count - out win over Jack Swagger at WWE Battleground . Acting as an unlikely champion of the U . S . A . , Khali attempted to take up the challenge of knocking off Rusev ’ s winning streak and very nearly proved himself equal to the task . A couple of well - timed kicks and the Accolade spelled doom for Khali , and the “ Fist of Russia ” remained unscathed . Good news for Cesaro : His power play as a potential No . 1 contender after ditching Paul Heyman as a manager ended in victory . Bad news : The King of Swing ’ s win was a hollow one , notched only after Dean Ambrose tapped into his rabid side and beat the former U . S . Champion to the point of a disqualification . Cesaro seemed to have bitten off more than he could chew from the start ; Ambrose ’ s unhinged in - ring style did not immediately provide an outlet for Cesaro ’ s more stately offense to find its mark . That it did was a testament to The Swiss Superman ’ s skill : Cesaro blasted Ambrose with a European uppercut as The Lunatic Fringe flung himself over the ropes , targeted his shoulder and trapped him in the Tree of Woe . Yet while Cesaro merely flirted with getting himself disqualified , Ambrose went all the way , smashing The Swiss Superman with a steel chair to cost himself the match , though the message to Seth Rollins seemed well worth it . And John Cena ’ s SummerSlam opponent is … Randy Orton ? ! ? ! Not quite . The Apex Predator emerged when Triple H made his move to announce The Champ ’ s challenger , though he was intercepted by Roman Reigns on his way to the ring . So , Plan A is out . Plan B has Dean Ambrose to deal with . Enter Paul Heyman with Plan C . “ C ” as in the conqueror himself , Brock Lesnar . And one quick handshake with the COO and reiteration of Brock ’ s bona fides later , Heyman made a declaration that may yet become a spoiler as well : “ This malpracticing Doctor of Thuganomics is in for the beating of a lifetime . ” Bold words . But he ’ s been right before .
