WWE RAW Results – 4/7/14

Courtesy of PWInsider.com:

Last night, at Wrestlemania XXX, we saw a few things that many people never expected to see take place in their lifetimes. Now that the Showcase of the Immortals is over, what is going to happen as we begin the Road to Wrestlemania 31 in Santa Clara.
Tonight’s show starts off with the Daniel Bryan video package spotlighting his time in WWE, starting with NXT and culminating with his win last night at Wrestlemania XXX.
We are in New Orleans, Louisiana and your announcers are Jerry ‘Is the Hall of Fame ceremony over yet’ Lawler, Michael ‘Gumbo’ Cole, and John ‘Did we really see what happened last night’ Layfield.
The WWE World Champion Daniel Bryan makes his way to the ring and the crowd “Yeses” with him.
The crowd chants for Daniel and he soaks it all in.
He says that the crowd never gets tired. He tells everyone to be careful and not hit their neighbor. Daniel says that it is hard to do the yes gesture while holding two titles. He says that he will do it one more time but then he has to give his shoulders a break.
Daniel says that it is funny because a little over two years ago when he started doing that and now a day after Wrestlemania XXX, everyone was united with one word. That word was ‘Yes’.
Daniel says that he might deserve it a bit, but he tells the crowd that they deserve it, in response to the ‘You Deserve It’ chants. It was more than a gesture, word, or movement. It was for the power that everyone has to make change. Daniel says that he beat the Authority last night and he is the new WWE World Champion.
Triple H’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring with his wife, one of the Principal Owners of the WWE, Stephanie McMahon.
Hunter says that he is not going to step into this ring because he does not want to do something he is not going to regret.
Daniel tells Hunter that if he is not going to get into the ring, he is going to do this and then he does the ‘Yes’ gesture in front of Hunter.
Hunter tells Daniel to enjoy his moment because this is just a moment. It won’t last and everyone knows it. It won’t even make it through the night. Hunter says that he will personally make sure of that. Daniel will defend his WWE World Championship against him.
Hunter says that not only will he become the 14 time champion, he is going to put an end to this crap and he will shut up the people and the world. Daniel can shake his head and smile, but the reality is that this is his show and there is not a damn thing Daniel can do about it.
Michael wonders if this is the end of Daniel Bryan’s title reign. Michael mentions that the end of the Streak will be celebrated by the man who vanquished the Undertaker, Brock Lesnar.
We go to commercial.
We are back with photos from Wrestlemania.
Triple H and Stephanie are in the office and Stephanie says that she cannot wait for Hunter to end the Yes Movement. Batista wants to know what is going on. This wouldn’t have happened if Hunter lost to Daniel Bryan. Hunter reminds Batista he tapped out. Batista says that he was not expecting a Triple Threat. Randy enters and he says that he wants his rematch.
Hunter says that he is the COO and it is his job to run things the way he wants. They get their rematches, but not tonight.
Stephanie says that everyone is right. It will be settled after Raw. Tonight, they will be in a Tag Match against the Usos.
Randy says that he does not want the tag titles. He wants his World Title back.
Hunter says this is happening for one reason and one reason only. When the three of them were on the same page, no one could stop them.

Brock Lesnar’s music plays and he is accompanied by Paul Heyman. Brock does the Brock Bounce on the stage before making his way to the ring that he extinguished the Undertaker’s Wrestlemania streak.
Paul and Brock look around at the crowd that is not too happy to see them in the ring.
Paul introduces himself and then he says that it is the greatest pleasure to serve as the advocate for his client . . . The BEAST INCARNATE, the conqueror of the Undertaker’s streak. A streak that lasted nearly a quarter of a century. It ended in three seconds at the hands of the conqueror, Brock Lesnar.
Paul says he understands that the people are in shock. That is a sign of a lack of intelligence. Paul says that they hate to say they told you so, but they told you so. Paul reads off Brock’s shirt that says ‘Eat, Sleep, Break the Streak’. How could you doubt the game plan of the greatest manager or the attributes of the greatest athlete in the WWE, Brock Lesnar.
Brock is not here to put smiles on people’s faces. He is here to shock the WWE Universe and put tears in the eyes of children. Now that you know all of the headlines, it is time to go off page and shoot from the hip.
Five seconds after walking through the curtain at Wrestlemania, the Undertaker collapsed. As the paramedics are panicking backstage, the most ruthless man who ever had the pleasure to meet him, Vincent Kennedy McMahon left Wrestlemania to ride to the hospital with the Undertaker. He is being treated for a concusion. He came this close to a broken neck or a cracked skull. The greatest thing that Taker ever did was not to kick out of that third F-5. Brock would have beaten Undertaker to the point that it would have changed the complexion of tonight’s show. Brock would have continued until the Streak was Dead.
Paul says that John Layfield and the two other things that are at the announce table gave a standing ovation along with 80,000 people in the SUPERDOME . . . the Superdome, Hogan. They gave an ovation for the loser. The winner of the match was Brock Lesnar.
Since this is the wildest crowd of the year, everyone is empowered because they are like every single member of the WWE Locker room. You are a bunch of wannabes. When Brock came through the curtain, no one gave him a standing ovation. They all looked down because no one respected Brock. Brock does not respect anyone and barely tolerates Paul. Paul says that Brock is not going to care about anyone who flies around the world to be noticed on television.
Paul says that many have said that they could go from the ring to the octagon. Daniel Bryan, John Cena, and Undertaker did not do it. They are wannabes. Brock Lesnar is the one. Many wanted to be the NCAA, UFC, and Undisputed Champion. The Rock, Hulk Hogan, and Steve Austin never pulled it off. They are all Wannabes.
You have a bunch of guys coming up to him and said they could be the one who would beat the streak. Why didn’t you? Shawn Michaels, Randy Orton, and Triple H couldn’t do it.
Brock is the ONE. The ONE in 21 and 1.
Paul says that he will say it slowly since they are starting to ‘What’ him.
BROCK
LESNAR
Is
The
One
In
Twenty-One
and
ONE.
There are WWE Hall of Famers, Legends, and WWE Superstars. The key to that is that they are plural and lumped together. There is only one who stands heads and shoulders above others on a platform of their own. There is only one Beast Incarnate. There is only one Man who beat the Streak. There is only one BROCK LESNAR

Now that he stood corrected by his Hulkamaniacs, we are here about 30 years of Wrestlemania moments. There will be more special Wrestlemania Moments . . .
Glass breaks and Steve Austin makes his way to the ring.
Austin stares down Hogan and then he asks everyone for a Hell Yeah if they are ready for Wrestlemania XXX. He says that it is great to be back in the Silverdome and he laughs at Hogan. When Steve Austin gets inside the ring, he usually opens a can of whoop ass and beats the living hell out of whoever he is in the ring with.
He asks if they want him to open a can of Whoop Ass. The fans say hell yeah. Austin says that he watched Hogan in all of his Wrestlemanias and the crowd ‘Whats’. Austin says Hogan kicked a lot of ass for a long time. Austin says that they have been protective of their legacies. He says that he has nothing but respect for Hogan and he respects what Hogan has done for the business. Austin wants a Hell Yeah.
Austin says that he would love to flap his gums but it is the night for the Superstars to bring their asses to the ring and give everything that they got. Tonight is the night for the current regime of WWE Superstars to put everything they got on the line in the ring for your asses.
Austin says to always remember Austin 3:16.
The Rock’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
The Rock tells us it is a true Wrestlemania moment when all five senses are on fire. You taste it, feel it, and smell it because . . . FINALLY . . . the Rock has come back to . . . New Orleans. That means the Rock has finally come back to Wrestlemania. That means finally The Rock, Hulk Hogan, and Steve Austin have finally come back to the SUPERDOME.
When he looks across this ring, he does not see two of the biggest legends of all time, he doesn’t just see two of the biggest icons. He see his good buddy Steve Austin and his childhood idol Hulk Hogan. He sees the two biggest names in the history of the WWE. Rock says that he has had the honor and privilege to face each of them in the ring at Wrestlemania. You have had an impact on his career but everyone in the back.
Someone will come out and fight for Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect unless someone vowed to say their prayers and eat their vitamins. A man will rise against the Authority tonight, but that doesn’t happen unless a bald headed SOB crosses the boss.
Rock says so many fans have birthdays nine months after Wrestlemania because they were so excited after watching The Rock and wanting to make Rock Babies.
Rock says there will be a lot of Rock Babies in January.
Rock says that it is an honor to be in the ring with Austin and Hogan and to be in front of everyone in the building. Rock asks if you can smell what the Rock is cooking. Austin says that is the bottom line because Stone Cole said so. Hogan asks Whatcha Gonna do when Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, the Rock and the SUPERDOME run wild over you.
