Cena won by pinfall with an Attitude Adjustment. If so, we should get an announcement tonight on Raw or next week. If there’s been one small crack in the foundation, however, it’s that The New Day is supposed to be a heel faction, except they’ve been garnering more cheers than villains typically do based on their amusing exploits. Big E has been rumoured as a possible opponent but seeing that the big guy could be tied up in that tag team title match, fighting twice in one night doesn’t seem likely.

Xavier Woods talks about how they laid out everyone at the end of the show last week, and then boasts that The New Day is better than The Shield, The Authority, Evolution, and Legacy. Additionally, the Raw segment marked the second week in a row that The New Day was programmed with Cena, meaning that WWE has faith in what they’re doing by virtue of programming them with the face of the company.
However, he took that to an entirely new level on the October 12 episode of Monday Night RAW from Chicago when he legitimately put a stop to the program to give a nod to the crowd in the building. Barrett hit Neville with a Bullhammer Elbow from the outside of the ring, allowing Sheamus to get the pin. If Demon Kane loses to Seth Rollins at Hell In A Cell, then Corporate Kane will lose his job as Director of Operations for WWE.
Roman Reigns heads to the ring for his match with Braun Strowman. Ryback won with Shell Shocked.
Even though the storyline has Summer Rae having to wait for an engagement ring until boyfriend Rusev has a ring on his finger, it’s mirroring real life in a way. Since then, Paige has been distancing herself from her Team PCB stablemates, while Natalya has been slotting in as a replacement of sorts.
Kevin Owens defeats Kalisto when he catches the luchador in a Pop-Up Powerbomb.
Nikki Bella (with Alicia Fox, Brie Bella) vs. Naomi (with Sasha Banks, Tamina) – Brie causes a distraction ringside, though takes a hard slam from Sasha.

One look at the current WWE roster suggests it is as good-if not better-than any other in company history. The lumberjacks all ganged up on Kane and tried to take him out, but Kane was still able to hit a Tombstone Piledriver on Rollins and win by pinfall. On Monday Night Raw, who will stand up to the trio and will Brock Lesnar be there?
