November 18 , 2013 Monday Night RAW results The November 18 , 2013 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s RAW brand , which took place on November 18 , 2013 at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville , Tennessee . Summary . Vacation ’ s over . One week away from the job cost The Authority dearly thanks to a scramble for control amongst their foot soldiers last week on Raw , and Triple H & Stephanie McMahon wasted no time in rectifying the situation when they strolled into Nashville for Raw Country . While WWE Director of Operations Kane was absent from their impromptu disciplinary session , Raw GM Brad Maddox and SmackDown GM Vickie Guerrero were not so lucky : It was decided – after very minimal deliberation – that Vickie would face her old rival AJ Lee , and Maddox would have the honor , so to speak , of battling WWE Champion Randy Orton one - on - one . Godspeed , Mr . Maddox . Alas , the Brad Maddox upset victory to end all upset victories did not happen on Monday Night Raw . The beleaguered General Manager was all but fed on a platter to a fuming Randy Orton , out for vengeance after the events of last week ’ s power struggle . However – check out the big brain on Brad – Maddox did not go quite so quietly into that goodnight RKO , surprising Orton by bashing The Viper on the head with the microphone and following up with a big DDT , putting the champion on his heels for much longer than anyone probably anticipated from the former referee . The victory turned out to be both moral and short - lived , though ; Orton took about as lightly to the sneak - attack as you might expect , and it wasn ’ t long before he dismantled Maddox and went to town on his head with the very same microphone , leaving the GM so annihilated the match was called and Orton given the victory . Curtis Axel has long come through in the clutch to retain his Intercontinental Championship , but the former Paul Heyman Guy ’ s luck finally ran dry on Raw Country when he was defeated by one of WWE ’ s fastest - rising Superstars : Big E Langston . Axel had initially been slated to face the former NXT Champion at the WWE Hell in a Cell Kickoff , but an injury to the titleholder put the match on the backburner . He had nowhere to hide on Raw , though , falling victim to Langstson ’ s smothering strength almost instantly . Axel caught a break by bouncing Big E ’ s neck off the ropes and quickly pounced on his challenger to regain control of the match . For a moment , it looked as though the champion would prevail , as Axel kept the bout close by matching Langston ’ s power with his speed . Langston weathered Axel ’ s storm , though , countering his neckbreaker and sending the champion down to Earth with a Big Ending that was truly , utterly perfect . Somewhere , Chris Jericho is popping champagne : His status as the lone WWE Musical Chairs champion remains intact after a Divas edition of the popular game degenerated into an all - out brawl between the entire women ’ s division . Even the dulcet tones of Florida Georgia Line ’ s “ Cruise ” weren ’ t enough to staunch the brewing animosity between the “ Total Divas ” cast and their contemporaries . It wasn ’ t long before all - out bedlam erupted that even moderator Jerry “ The King ” Lawler was powerless to stop , culminating in the non - “ Total Divas ” being tossed unceremoniously from the ring . Big Show followed up on his statement chokeslam of Randy Orton with a big victory on Raw Country , but he ’ s not nearly out of the woods yet when it comes to his rivalry with The Viper . The giant ’ s Raw win was hardly a gimme , though , as his opponent – Ryback – made the most of his first - ever crack at the former World Heavyweight Champion , attacking the big man with surprising confidence considering he was dumped as a Paul Heyman Guy . “ The Big Guy , ” however , didn ’ t have nearly as much as luck with Show as he did with The Great Khali a couple of weeks back . Despite a late - game push by The Human Wrecking Ball that included a monstrous Shell Shocked to the giant , Show sealed the deal with a KO Punch . Show wasn ’ t about to amble off to the Grand Ole Opry in peace , though , as The Apex Predator stormed the ring only to be struck down with a giant spear . The Miz & Kofi Kingston is a pair to be reckoned with , even by the standards of the mighty Real Americans … at least , it usually is . While the Americans should have faced a big hurdle in their diverse , dynamic opponents , there was more than just the usual trouble in paradise for the former Intercontinental Champions thanks to a surprising move by The Miz . The decisive moment came when Miz – who the Americans had run roughshod over – pulled a decidedly un - awesome move by abandoning Kingston right as he was about to be tagged in . The former WWE Champion ’ s stunt left Kofi high and dry , and Jack Swagger was more than happy to feast on his vulnerable foe with a bone - wrenching Patriot Lock that forced Kofi to submit . Brad Maddox was devoured by Randy Orton earlier in the night as punishment from The Authority , but even though SmackDown GM Vickie Guerrero was defeated by Divas Champion AJ Lee , at least it was quick defeat . Vickie did nearly manage to stay her own doom by taking a flop backstage , faking a fainting spell that nearly tricked the referees into cancelling the match . Stephanie McMahon wasn ’ t buying it , though , and forced Vickie into the ring . Despite Vickie ’ s repeated attempts to weasel her way out of the match , AJ forced her into the ring and applied the Black Widow for a near - instantaneous tapout , after which point Vickie fainted for real . Nobody may know what a Broadway Brawl is , but one thing is indisputable : Dolph Ziggler won it . Thrown into an impromptu match against Damien Sandow by WWE COO Triple H , The Showoff rebounded in style from his loss to Curtis Axel last week , prevailing over the “ Uncrowned World Heavyweight Champion ” in the heart of Music City . Tossed into a ring that was lined with musical instruments , both Sandow and Ziggler made use of the melodic plunder as weapons ; The Enlightened One swung a Fender Stratocaster and Dolph took a fall through an electronic keyboard in the opening minutes alone . Ziggler took the brunt of the musical pain before he found his footing , countering a guitar to the dome by shattering a fiddle over Sandow ’ s back . Sandow answered by throwing Dolph into a bass fiddle , but Ziggler channeled the great Todd Rundgren and banged on the drum all day , trapping Sandow inside a bass drum before finishing him off by bringing a guitar down on his trapped opponent . Alberto Del Rio has done everything he can to ensure that John Cena walks into Survivor Series as a one - armed man – though for all his deviousness , “ Mexico ’ s Greatest Export ” may still not have done enough . Cena seemed to appreciate the gravity of his situation when he addressed the WWE Universe , all the while sporting a sling on his battered arm . Del Rio was quick to piggyback on Cena ’ s despair , crashing his address and promising further humiliation in The Champ ’ s hometown at Survivor Series . The Cenation leader , though , didn ’ t need two arms to make a statement , throwing off the sling and making a run at The Essence of Excellence . The No . 1 contender barely dodged an Attitude Adjustment and scurried back to safety ; all Cena has to do on Sunday is finish the job , but is his body ready for the task ? “ The Union Jacks ” may have gotten a win in the U . K . , but 3MB ’ s latest , Nashville - inspired alter - ego had no such luck when they ran afoul of R - Truth and his new partner , Xavier Woods . The NXT newcomer and PhD candidate got the brunt of the match time , hanging tough against both Drew McIntyre ( “ nephew of Reba ” ) and Jinder Mahal . Truth tagged in to reclaim the momentum ; the former U . S . Champion set ‘ em up and Woods knocked ‘ em down , screaming “ IT ’ S MORPHIN ’ TIME ! ” before dispatching McIntyre with his one - two signature maneuver punch of the “ Honor Roll ” clothesline and “ Lost in the Woods ” boot to the face . Raw Country got its final dose of country music with an epic performance by Florida Georgia Line , who rocked the WWE Universe with " Round Here , " the official theme song for Raw in Nashville . Chaos erupted between The Shield , The Wyatt Family , CM Punk , Daniel Bryan , The Usos & The Rhodes Brothers last week , and the 12 Superstars found a way to exorcise their frustration in Raw Country ’ s epic conclusion . Separated into teams of six , the dozen got down and dirty in a 12 - Man Tag Team Match that saw the fan favorites fall to a late disadvantage until a surprise Superstar came to save the day . Dissent between The Shield and The Wyatts nearly threatened to destroy their efforts until Bray Wyatt himself mended the fences , uniting his teammates against Bryan for a plus - sized numbers game . It took a last - ditch tag to Punk by Bryan to re - ignite his team and The Second City Saint shouldered the burden well , cleaning house and dispatching Dean Ambrose with a Go to Sleep after an epic melee ensued . The victory had only just been counted when The Real Americans joined in for a piece of the action and sent Punk , Bryan & Co . into defense mode … at which point Rey Mysterio stormed into the ring and struck Jack Swagger and Luke Harper with a double 619 . The mask , as they say , is back .
