Well, that's it for tonight. This was actually the best Go-Home RAW show that I can remember. Go-Home shows have not been good in a long long time, but this did its job and more.

With that being said, thanks for joining us tonight. Do tune in against for WWE NXT later in the week.

Stay tuned for the full results right here!

McIntyre was almost blindsided by Randy, but he then took out Orton and sent him over the announce table.

At least HBK is standing again. He might be hurt, but he stands.

Orton gets back in the ring and takes an RKO while Drew helps Shawn. Orton vs McIntyre at SummerSlam eh.

"@RandyOrton, I don't know it's going to happen, but I can assure it is going to happen ... At #SummerSlam, you WILL see it coming."

Shawn says that he does not know how it will happen, be it sweet chin music or a claymore, Randy Orton will pay for what he had done. Shawn goes to leave by Randy Orton hits the RKO on Michaels and then punts him immediately after that. Randy makes a run for it as Drew McIntyre comes in. Shawn is hurt as he crawls to the ropes.

Shawn Michaels says that without Ric Flair, there would be no big stars in WWE unless he had done what he had done. Shawn says that Randy was not appreciative enough of what Ric Flair gave him.

World's. StrongEST. Slam.

Rey says he could not stand to see that. He says he is not fully recovered from his eye injury and he may never fully recover, but he says that there is no doctor that will stop him from protecting Dominik.

He calls out Seth then and there.

WIN for @HEELZiggler over @Erik_WWE in #RAWUnderground ... but @Ivar_WWE hates to see it. #WWERaw pic.twitter.com/a6gEVkRXvg
