WWE Raw Intro

Welcome to Monday Night Raw and we kick things off with the WWE Champion Roman Reigns making his way to the ring. Reigns says next Sunday will truly be one vs all when he defends his WWE Champion but that's next Sunday. Tonight he only cares about Brock Lesnar.

Chris Jericho comes out and welcomes everyone to Raw Is Jericho. He tells Reigns he knows he's waiting for Lesnar but he has someone better. The Ayatollah Of Rock 'n' Rolla. Reigns says he's happy Jericho's back but Jericho is not Brock Lesnar but Jericho isn't Lesnar and that's who he wants

Jericho then says he has a proposition and wants to turn this into the biggest Highlight Reel and wants to have Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns in the Highlight Reel. Reigns says he loves that idea and says if Lesnar is going to be here then he will too

League Of Nations come out and Sheamus asks when did the Royal Rumble match become Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar. A "You Look Stupid" chant breaks out and Sheamus tells the crowd to quiet down the grown ups are talking

Sheamus says LON are in the Rumble too and one of them will walk out with the championship and the WWE Championship is coming home. Sheamus then mocks Jericho's jacket and says Jericho looks stupid. Jericho says that's like the pot calling the kettle black or milky white.

Jericho says he doesn't want to have Sheamus on the highlight reel but would love to have his mohawk on so he can ask it why it makes Sheamus look stupid. Alberto Del Rio then cuts Jericho off and calls him a little dog and tells him to be quiet and he's never won a Royal Rumble whereas Del Rio won the biggest Rumble in WWE history. Jericho says he'd love to have Del Rio on Highlight Reel but doesn't feel like it. Rusev then tells Jericho every day is a Rumble in Bulgaria

Jericho asks Reigns who won last year's Rumble and who did he throw out to win that Rumble. Jericho then makes a short joke. Rusev starts walking to the ring but Reigns tells him to shut up but changes his mind and says he'd love to shut Rusev up right now

Jericho polls the audience and says looks like the Jerichoholics have spoken and tells Rusev to come on down and LON are on the outside so he's going to even things up on the inside by appointing himself referee
