In a rare move by the WWE, next week's Raw, which will air on July 29, was taped yesterday, pushing back the taping of Smackdown until later this evening. So instead of Smackdown spoilers and results we bring you the results and spoilers of next week's episode of Raw. Wrestling Inc has the full story of what to expect from next monday's Raw.
First up is a promo between Vince McMahon, Brad Maddox, and Daniel Bryan. The three men discuss Bryan's match with WWE Champion John Cena at Summerslam.
Match #1: The Shield defeated Mark Henry and The Usos
Despite a strong effort from The World Strongest Man and the feisty Usos, The Shield manage to hold off their newest rivals and win the match.
Match #2: Rob Van Dam defeated Fandango via countout
As is typical of Fandango, he bolts from the ring after receiving some punishment from the ECW original, forfeiting the match via count out. This is Van Dam's third win in a week, and on Smackdown the former world champ will face Alberto Del Rio.
Match #3: Kaitlyn defeated Divas Champion AJ Lee
Kaitlyn managed to defeat her foe in this non-title match, but the real focus was on Big E Langston and Dolph Ziggler, who challenged his former bodyguard to a match on the spot.
Match #4: Dolph Ziggler defeated Big E Langston
After some intense action between the agile Ziggler and the powerful Langston, the matched ended with AJ Lee interfering and costing Langston the match, which may set up at match between the two at Summerslam.
Match #5: Christian vs. Alberto Del Rio
In what may be considered an upset, Christian was able to pin the World Heavyweight Champ clean in the ring in a non-title match. Perhaps this may set up a match between the two at Summerslam, possibly with Rob Van Dam added in depending on how well his Smackdown match with Del Rio goes.
Match #6: Cody Rhodes vs. Wade Barrett
Rhodes is able to dispatch the English wrestler, and afterwards his former partner Damien Sandow came out to cut a promo on his former companion.
Match #7 Daniel Bryan vs. Kane
Despite having to face three men on the last episode of Raw, Bryan got the better of his former friend and tag team partner Kane in a entertaining match. After his defeat, Kane got the better of Bryan by giving him a chokeslam, but the Wyatt family came out and attacked the Big Red Machine
Match #8: Brie Bella vs. Natalya
In a rare move, most likely brought on by the new E! show centered around WWE divas, a second divas match is shown, with Brie Bella defeated Natalya in a short match.
Match #9: Curtis Axel vs. R-Truth
Before the match Paul Heyman gave a promo about the greatness of his newest wrestler, who soundly defeated R-Truth. However, CM Punk stormed the ring afterwards, giving Axel a beating.
Vince McMahon is again shown backstage, talking to Triple H about Summerslam and revealing that somebody like his son-in-law was facing John Cena at Summerslam, rather than Daniel Bryan.
Match #10 John Cena vs. Ryback (Tables Match)
The two powerhouses gave it all during the match, brawling all over the ring until Cena managed to dump the monster through a table to win the match. Bryan then hit the ring to hand the WWE Champion his title belt and celebrate with his future foe.
