In memory of Masa Saito: 1942 – 2018.

WWE General Manager Kurt Angle is in the ring. Angle thanks every superstar for being a part of Extreme Rules. Their effort and dedication makes him proud to be the RAW GM. There is one superstar that hasn’t shown effort and dedication: the Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar. Last night, he gave Brock Lesnar an ultimatum. Show up on RAW, agree to your next title defense, or he’ll be stripped. It’s been 24 hours and he has not heard from either Lesnar or his representative. Angle is stripping Brock Lesnar of the WWE Universal Championship.

Paul Heyman marches out to the stage. “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman…” Angle cuts him off and says everyone knows who he is and who he represents. If Lesnar doesn’t come out right now, Heyman is wasting his time. Heyman says it’s interesting that Angle says that because his client, the reigning, defending, undisputed Universal Champion Brock Lesnar… is not here this evening. Angle says Heyman leaves him no choice… Heyman runs to the ring. Heyman gets inside the ring and cautiously approaches Angle. A “Strip the title” chant picks up. Heyman says Angle and the entire WWE Universe has it all wrong. Heyman doesn’t blame Angle for his perception. Everyone thinks Lesnar doesn’t care about being the Universal Champion and that his sole focus is becoming the UFC Heavyweight Champion. Heyman assures him nothing could be further from the truth. Brock Lesnar loves being in WWE. Brock Lesnar loves being the Universal Heavyweight Champion. Angle asks why he doesn’t show up. Heyman says Lesnar wants to represent the entire WWE Universe and challenge for the UFC Heavyweight Championship with the Universal Title strapped around his waist so that when Lesnar once again becomes the UFC Heavyweight Champion, he’ll do it representing WWE as a two sport champion the same way Angle challenged for WWE Titles with the Olympic Gold Medals strapped around his neck.

Angle says he’ll keep this simple. Brock Lesnar will defend the Universal Championship at SummerSlam or he is no longer champion. Heyman looks shocked. Another “Strip the title” chant picks up. Angle demands an answer right now. Heyman says Angle drives a hard bargain and is a hell of a negotiator. Heyman says, “Brock Lesnar will defend the Universal Title at SummerSlam.” Heyman says on behalf of his client, Brock Lesnar, he congratulates the WWE Universe for their voice have been heard. They have all screamed at the top of their lungs that they want more Brock Lesnar. The crowd loudly boos. Heyman congratulates them for making their voices heard by this highly intelligent General Manager. It’s official: his client, Brock Lesnar, will defend his WWE Universal Title at SummerSlam. The only thing Angle has to do is decide who will be beaten, victimized, and conquered by Brock Lesnar.

Bobby Lashley’s music hits, and he comes out to a good reception. Lashley says when he came back to WWE, he had two goals. The first was accomplished last night at Extreme Rules when he beat Roman Reigns. Now it’s time to accomplish the other. Lashley approaches Heyman, who is nervous. Lashley wants to beat Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at SummerSlam.

Drew McIntyre’s music hits. McIntyre asks why they think he came back to WWE. Did he come back to make the roster numbers and stand in Dolph Ziggler’s corner? McIntyre came back for change and to ensure the Intercontinental Championship stays around Ziggler’s waist. That was phase one. Now it’s time for phase two. A “YES” chant hits. McIntyre wants the Universal Championship.

Seth Rollins’ music hits, and he power walks to the ring and immediately gets in McIntyre’s face. McIntyre cost him the WWE Intercontinental Championship last night. Rollins says if they need an opponent for Brock Lesnar, he is right here.

A guitar strums, and Elias walks out to the stage. Elias asks, “Who wants to walk with Elias?” Elias gets in the ring and says nothing sounds nicer than Elias as the Universal Champion. On top of that on July 23, his debut album drops. It only makes sense for Angle to ride that success into SummerSlam against Brock Lesnar.

Finn Balor comes out and says he was the first Universal Champion. It should be him against Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam.

Roman Reigns’ music hits, and he comes out to loud boos from the crowd. Reigns says he doesn’t have any excuses and doesn’t care about Brock Lesnar. Reigns just wants to fight someone tonight. Angle says they’re all deserving to be out here right now. Angle says we’ll have two triple threat matches and the winners will compete next week for the right to take on Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam. The first triple threat will be Elias, Seth Rollins, and Bobby Lashley. The other triple threat will be Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor, and Roman Reigns. That match is right now.

-Commercial Break-

Kurt Angle is walking backstage when Constable Baron Corbin walks up to him. Corbin asks what he thinks he’s doing. Two triple threat matches? Did he even get authorization from Stephanie McMahon? Angle says he didn’t think he needed it. Corbin asks why he isn’t in one. Angle says he didn’t deserve it since Finn Balor beat him last night. Angle then walks off.

Bayley is pacing backstage when Kurt Angle walks up. Angle says Sasha Banks is in her locker room. Angle asks how the friendship counseling went.

-Commercial Break-

WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler makes his way to the ring. Highlights are shown of him beating Seth Rollins last night in an Iron Man Match 5-4. Last night at Extreme Rules, all he did was everything he said he was going to do. Ziggler says he put on an absolute clinic. Ziggler tells Robert Downey, Jr. to move over because he is Iron Man and still the WWE Intercontinental Champion. Ziggler says something special happened last night. The Intercontinental Championship main evented a WWE PPV for the first time in 17 years. That sure as hell wasn’t because of Seth Rollins. Ziggler came back to RAW and put the entire roster on notice. Ziggler gives credit where it’s due. Ziggler respects everything Rollins did to make the Intercontinental Championship what it is today, but he’s not Dolph Ziggler, brother. Ziggler not only beat Rollins once… he beat him five times.

Bobby Roode’s music cuts him off, and he comes out to the ring. Roode says he knows that Ziggler is trying to give credit where it’s due, but he hasn’t heard him give any to Drew McIntyre. If it wasn’t for McIntyre, Ziggler wouldn’t be out in the ring bragging. Ziggler should be on his hands and knees thanking McIntyre. If it wasn’t for McIntyre, Ziggler would be at a comedy club telling bad jokes. Ziggler says last night while he was headlining Extreme Rules, Roode must have had fun watching from the sidelines. Roode says the sidelines suck. As a matter of fact, that’s why he’s out here right now to challenge Ziggler for the Intercontinental Championship, right now. Roode takes off his robe. Roode asks if Ziggler is worried he can’t do it on his own. Ziggler angrily agrees to the match.

Alexa Bliss gloats about her defense at Extreme Rules

RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss comes to the ring with Mickie James. Despite kendo sticks, chairs, trash cans, and overhyped rookies, she’s still the champion. No one believed she could do it, but they were wrong. The one true goddess stands victorious. Bliss has dominated the entire women’s division because the strongest muscle she has is her brain. Outsmarting Nia Jax last night wasn’t that hard. Bliss says she has beaten every single woman in the locker room. A very light “Ronda Rousey” chant starts up. Bliss says Ronda Rousey doesn’t count.

Corbin says he’ll call her right now, but he left his phone in the office. Corbin says he’s going to go get it. Corbin walks off. Angle pulls out Corbin’s phone. Angle says if she can wait out her suspension, he’ll give her a match against Alexa Bliss. If she can’t wait it out, the match is off. This isn’t just any match. It’ll be a RAW Women’s Championship match at SummerSlam! Rousey looks pleased while Bliss looks terrified.
