WWE Monday Night RAW Recap, Results For May 20, 2013: Paul Heyman Introduces His New Client to The WWE Universe & Triple H; The Shield Continue Their Roll

- The show begins with Ryback driving an ambulance into the Sprint Center, in Kansas City, MO. Ryback tells the crowd that John Cena, who he battled to a no-contest in their "Last Man Standing" match at the "Extreme Rules" pay-per-view (PPV), got lucky he was able to walk away from their match, and promised him he'll need medical assistance they need they meet.

Ryback goes on to challenge Cena to an "Ambulance Match," at "WWE Payback" in June, for the WWE Championship, promising not only to put the champion in the hospital, but the entire WWE Universe, as well.

- Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, and JBL announce that Paul Heyman has a new client in his stable and will introduce him later in the show.

Match #1: Wade Barrett (Intercontinental Champion) & Fandango (w/Summer Rae vs. Chris Jericho & The Miz

The odd couple of Barrett and Fandango teamed up against a reunited Jeri-Miz, working well as unit until Fandango became more concerned with the pronunciation of his name, grabbing the mic and addressing the crowd, as Barrett had control of the match.

Fandango's music then hits and he began dancing with Summer Rae, in the middle of his bout, confusing everyone involved. The distraction was enough for Jericho to hit Barrett with a Codebreaker, who tagged in The Miz, and sealed the win with a Figure-Four leg-lock.

Winners: Chris Jericho & The Miz

Swagger uses his NCAA wrestling skills to wear Orton down and work on his leg. Orton fights back, attempting to set up the draping DDT only to have Swagger ram him into the barrier.

Orton hits his draping DDT and sets up for the RKO, only to have Swagger slip on "Patriot Lock" on Orton. Orton drags himself to the ropes, to break the hold.

Triple H dominated his young opponent to start the match, choking him in the corner before tossing him from the ring. Axel managed to turns things around on the former heavyweight champion, holding his own with a series of dropkicks and forearms.

Triple H mounts a comeback, backing down Axel with shoulder-blocks, a jawbreaker, and a spinebuster. Triple H tosses Axel outside the ring, but appears to be hurt, as he takes the fight to the floor. After a vicious clothesline on Axel, Triple H has trouble getting back into the ring, appearing disoriented, before taking a seat and asking for water. He attempts to get back into the ring only to stumble, take a knee, and struggle back to the chair. Trainers came out to attend to Triple H, who falls as he attempts to stand up and continue the match. Triple H weakly attempts to get back up only to have the trainers tell him he's done for the night, struggling to stay up, as the show goes off the air.

Winner: No Contest
