Ring Area<\/em><\/span>
\nThe new Universal Champ, Seth Rollins, heads to the ring. Rollins says the last few weeks have been the toughest of his career. He says Lesnar truly is a beast in the ring, but when Rollins was out of energy, the fans came alive. The WWE Universe took Rollins to a place that only “we” could go together, and in that moment Rollins knew he could slay the beast.<\/p>\n

When Rollins holds up the Universal Title, The OC comes out and heads to the ring. Styles says The OC would like to be the first to congratulate Rollins. Styles tells Rollins he doesn’t have to worry about Lesnar, but he does have to worry about the man standing in front of him. Styles would like to challenge Rollins and prove that he’s a much, much better champ than Rollins.<\/p>\n

Rollins says he used to have a lot of respect for Styles, but not anymore. Rollins might be hurting, but he’d love nothing more than to teach Styles some respect. Challenge accepted. Styles holds his hand out to Rollins, but Rollins is wary of Anderson and Gallows. Styles asks Anderson and Gallows to leave the ring, and they do. Rollins and Styles shake hands. Styles smiles as he leaves with Anderson and Gallows by his side.<\/p>\n

Backstage<\/em><\/span>
\nMontez Ford is excited about RAW tonight. Angelo Dawkins is feeling bad. He’s dehydrated because of the SummerSlam after-party. Sami Zayn walks up and tells the Street Profits to have fun while they can, because RAW will suck out their souls. Zayn says every superstar who brings something real to the show ends up feeling manufactured once the RAW machine gets a hold of it.<\/p>\n

Dawkins, seeing Samoa Joe behind Zayn, asks Zayn if Samoa Joe is the same. Zayn says Joe is a perfect example of someone who started strong on RAW but is now a shell of his former self. Joe doesn’t like that, but he tells Zayn he’d like to hear more out in the ring. Right now. Joe shoves Zayn to the ground and storms off.<\/p>\n
