By @B_Rock1978

Wrestling Lockup with Brandon, brought to you by Triple Threat CLE. It's the RAW recap from last night's show.

- RAW took place this week in San Jose, California. And it's the huge night after Wrestlemania RAW, which is usually a pretty good show. Hopefully WWE lives up to this.

- In Ring Segment With Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman: Heyman talks about how Lesnar took Roman Reigns to "suplex city, bitch". Heyman says he could take legal action on Seth Rollins, for the way he inserted himself into the World Title match, but Lesnar wants to invoke his rematch clause instead. Stephanie McMahon arrives and is happy about the way Wrestlemania turned out. Steph says Rollins is on his way to the arena soon, after appearing on the Today Show and is sure he'll be up for the challenge. Heyman promises that Lesnar will deliver a beating and be called champion again.

- "WWE Intercontinental Championship Match": Daniel Bryan (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler: Bryan hits a belly-to-back superplex on Ziggler for a near fall. Bryan misses a stiff kick and gets rolled up for a near fall. Bryan goes for the "Yes Lock", but Ziggler counters with a jack knife cover, for a near fall. Ziggler hits a super kick and falls on top of Bryan, but gets a near fall. Bryan and Ziggler exchange punches and head butts, until Bryan finally hits the flying knee. Bryan covers and scores the pinfall. Daniel Bryan retains the I-C Title.

- After the match: Bad News Barrett attacks Bryan and goes for the "Bullhammer", but.........Sheamus' music hits and the Celtic Warrior returns. Sheamus, however, "Brogue Kicks" Bryan, then hits "White Noise" and a "Brogue Kick" on Ziggler.

- "8 Man Tag Team Match": Cesaro, Tyson Kidd, Konnor, and Viktor vs. Kalisto, Sin Cara, Big E, and Kofi Kingston: Kidd sends Kofi flying into a Cesaro european uppercut. Viktor blind tags in and gets inside cradled by Kofi for a near fall. Kalisto hits a springboard corkscrew and a head scissors driver. Big E with a belly-to-belly on Cesaro and Kidd. Kalisto ends up hitting "Salida Del Sol" to score the pinfall.

- Backstage, Brock Lesnar paces back and forth, until Paul Heyman says "He's Here".

- "WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match": Seth Rollins (c) vs. Brock Lesnar: Rollins says he's jet lagged and his foot hurts from "Curb Stomping" Lesnar and Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania. Stephanie McMahon gave him the okay to give Lesnar his rematch some other time. Lesnar clotheslines Rollins and goes for the german suplex, but Rollins lands on his feet and hits an enzuiguri. Lesnar doesn't flinch and takes down Rollins. Lesnar takes out Mercury and Noble, as Rollins escapes into the crowd and runs for his life. Lesnar goes crazy, throws Mercury and Noble over the announcers table, gives Michael Cole an "F5", then sets up a camera man for an "F5". Stephanie McMahon orders Lesnar to put down the camera man. Lesnar lays out the camera man with the "F5", anyway, and Steph announces that Lesnar is suspended indefinitely. Lesnar hits another "F5" on a WWE official as he walks out.

- Backstage, Stephanie says she had no choice but to suspend Lesnar, Lesnar will be fined, he'll get his rematch when she says so now and that three year contract he signed, means that she owns the son of a bitch.

- Damien Sandow vs. Stardust: Back and forth match. Stardust gets in some kicks, punches and a gourdbuster. Sandow returns with a hiptoss and hits the "Skull Crushing Finale". Sandow covers and scores the pinfall.

- After the match: The Miz attacks Sandow and lays him out with the "Skull Crushing Finale".

- In Ring Segment With Curtis Axel: The whole roster is jealous of Axelmania, it took 29 guys to eliminate him in last night's battle royal and the road to "Axtreme Rules" begins now. 

- Adrian Neville vs. Curtis Axel: Neville hits a forearm, some kicks, a running boot and a running European uppercut. Neville slams Axel, climbs the ropes and hits "Red Arrow", to score the pinfall.

- In Ring Segment With John Cena: The Champ Is Here!! Cena says the crowd doesn't get the credit they deserve, he'll never run from a fight and will defend the U.S. Title against the first person to come get some. Out comes Dean Ambrose.

- "WWE United States Championship Match": John Cena (c) vs. Dean Ambrose: Cena hits the "AA", but Ambrose kicks out. Cena applies the "STF", but Ambrose makes it to the ropes. Cena goes for another "AA", but Ambrose counters into Cena's own "STF". Cena escapes, but gets hit with "Dirty Deeds". Cena kicks out and begins exchanging punches with Ambrose. Ambrose hits a cross body, but Cena rolls through and hits an "AA" on Ambrose. Cena covers and scores the pinfall. John Cena retains the U.S. Title.

- Backstage, Seth Rollins says Brock Lesnar got what he deserved and he hopes he gets a hefty fine. Randy Orton appears and reminds Rollins of how Orton beat him at Wrestlemania and Orton never did get his WWE World Title rematch. Kane and Big Show arrive. Rollins gives Orton to the end of the night to find two guys to team with Orton for their main event tag match.

- "6 Diva Tag Match": A.J. Lee, Paige, and Naomi vs. Nattie Neidhart and The Bellas: Naomi hits a cross body. Nikki Irish whips Naomi, but Naomi counters and goes for the "Rear End". Nikki counters that with the Alabama Slam. Nattie suplexes Paige. Naomi hits the "Rear View" and scores the pinfall.

- Backstage, Ryback offers to team with Randy Orton because it's feeding time on The Authority.

- Goldust vs. Rusev: Rusev destroys Goldust with kicks, punches, forearms and by choking Goldust. Rusev hits the thrust kick and applies "The Accolade" submission, forcing Goldust to tap out.

- "6 Man Tag Team Match": Seth Rollins, Kane, and Big Show vs. Randy Orton, Ryback, and Roman Reigns: Reigns goes for the "Superman Punch", but Show stops him. Reigns gets thrown towards Kane, but hits Kane with the "Superman Punch". Ryback hits the "Shell Shock" on Show. Rollins dodges a Reigns spear. Orton hits the "RKO" on Kane, setting Kane up to get speared by Reigns. Reigns covers and scores the pinfall. The good guys celebrate as RAW closes out.

And that's a wrap on this week's RAW results, till next time tap or snap.
