RAW Recap

This week SmackDown opens with a recap of “Ashley from HR” giving her performance evaluation for Kane on RAW. It also showed Kane getting his ankle shattered by Rollins before emerging out of the ambulance to attack Rollins. Kane stood tall with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to end RAW. Will he get another crack at Rollins tonight? We can only hope.

Rollins/Kane Segment

Rollins opens SmackDown and he has his title with him. He talks about how Kane fooled the idiots in Human Resources but Kane won’t fool him. Rollins calls out Kane to tell the truth, and Director of Operations Kane comes out with crutches and an injured ankle. Kane says his passion for coming back as D.o.O. was shattered when Rollins used a chair to injure his ankle.

Rollins tells Kane to give him a break and admit that him and the demon are the same person. Rollins tells everyone that he’s not stupid, so it can only be that Kane has a severe personality disorder. Kane says that psychiatric care is required for Rollins, not him. Kane says it’s all in Rollins’ imagination and that he should be a Hollywood screenwriter.

Kane says he’s aware of the demon tormenting Rollins, but says that the demon is not Corporate Kane. He says that Rollins needs to be uplifted, so he should team up with the most positive team in WWE, the New Day. They’ll team up against the Dudley Boyz and Demon Kane. Rollins says he will only agree to the match if Corporate Kane is seated ringside to watch the match. Kane agrees and wishes Rollins good luck.

Evan’s Note: Bring back Dr. Shelby. Also for the first time in a while, I actually have no idea what WWE is going to do on SmackDown.

Ryback is announced to get his Intercontinental Championship rematch tonight against Kevin Owens.

Next: Team Bella vs Team B.A.D.
