Brock Lesnar’s theme hits as the Royal Rumble Champion is accompanied by Paul Heyman. Brock & Heyman enter the ring. Heyman gets on the mic and says that his client BROCK LESNAR conquered the Royal Rumble and he is here to conquer Monday Night Raw Tonight. Heyman says The Authority should give Brock his title match tonight as The Beast is not waiting until Wrestlemania to get his championship match. Triple H & Stephanie come out on the ramp. Stephanie says they will give Brock what he wants as long as Heyman reveals why he had a secret meeting with Shane McMahon earlier this week. Paul Heyman with a crazy smile on his face acts like he is unaware of what Stephanie is talking about. Stephanie mentions that Shane revealed to her a secret meeting between Paulie & Shane O Mac this week. She demands the details from Heyman. Paul Heyman then says it appears as if he has more power than The Authority now. Heyman tells Stephanie to give Brock his WWE World Heavyweight Championship match tonight and he will meet with the Authority backstage to discuss private matters. Triple H intervenes. “Brock wants his title match tonight. Fine. He will have his title match tonight. There is just one condition. The WWE World Heavyweight Champion Kane gets to choose the stipulation.” Brock looks ready in the ring for the match right now. Kane’s music hits. Demon Kane is now on the ramp as The Authority leaves satisfied with Heyman’s agreement to meet with them backstage. Kane says, “At the Royal Rumble, we met in your environment Brock. Inside a steel cage. Tonight you will suffer at my playground. I choose a Casket Match.” Michael Hayes at commentary is shocked that tonight we will see a Casket Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Chris Jericho will have a Highlight Reel next.
Jericho comes out and mentions it has been a long time since we had a Highlight Reel. His guest tonight is the longest reigning Intercontinental Champion ever – Dolph Ziggler. Y2J cuts right to the chase with Dolph. “I want an Intercontinental Championship match” says Jericho. Dolph reminds Jericho that he beat him one-on-one at the Royal Rumble. Jericho says that he paved the way for people like Dolph to be Intercontinental Champion. Ziggler says Y2J still has to earn his title shot and he is yet to beat him. Jericho then challenges Ziggler to a re-match at Fast Lane but this time Y2J assures Dolph that the Ayatollah of Rock N’ Rollas hand will be raised at the end of the night. Dolph agrees that maybe he has become a little cocky since he has been IC Champion for so long, but he assures Jericho that Dolph Ziggler will steal the show at Fast Lane. Ziggler leaves the ring as his song hits. Jericho takes his stool from the Highlight Reel set up and tosses it at Dolph on the ramp but Y2J completely missed him. Ziggler laughs as he holds the title high and proud. “See you at Fast Lane Jericho” Dolph says from the ramp.
When we come back, two big giants collide as Ryback battles Mark Henry.
Ryback def. Mark Henry with the Meat Hook Clothesline. After the match, Henry tries to offer a handshake to Ryback showing good sportsmanship, but Ryback just walks away.

Back from the break, Neville is in the ring set to take on the Big Show. Big Show makes quick work of Neville squashing him with a Chokeslam in this non-title match. Big Show grabs the mic and says, “If you thought that was shocking, wait until you see what I have up my sleeve for Fast Lane.” The Wyatts theme song hits. Big Show disappears as Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper & Erick Rowan make their bizarre entrance to the ring. Neville is still in the ring trying to recover from the beat down he just suffered from Big Show when Luke Harper damn near kicks Neville’s head off with a Big Boot. Erick Rowan then delivers a Big Splash to Neville. Bray Wyatt is circling around the ring now. He picks up Neville and delivers Sister Abigail to Neville. At ringside, Michael Hayes reminds us from the announce table that this may have something to do with Neville eliminating Bray Wyatt from the Royal Rumble. With his hands up in the air, Neville still on his back, and Harper & Rowan at his sides, Bray Wyatt screams, “Follow The…Roman Reigns’ song hits.
Tag Team Champions Dean Ambrose & Roman Reigns come charging through the crowd. Ambrose grabs the microphone and yells at Bray. “Hey Wyatts, pick on someone your own size.” Ambrose jumps in the ring first as he & Roman collide with the Wyatt family. After knocking Harper & Rowan over the top rope, Bray pulls his family back as they leave via the ramp like a bunch of cowards. Michael Hayes says “Things are really heating up on the Road to Wrestlemania.”
After the break, Alberto Del Rio (w/Rusev) def. Heath Slater (w/ Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel, & Adam Rose) with an Inzugeri
After the break, JBL will interview Rock and Batista from their respective Hollywood Movie Sets from the announce table.
JBL interviews The Rock & Batista who are both on the titan tron. He informs them that they will be on the greatest talk show of all time, Miz TV at Fast Lane. Batista tells JBL that this is the most serious appearance of his life and at Wrestlemania, he is going to show The Rock just how important Miz TV really is. The Rock makes a ton of immature jokes about Batista’s sarcasm and tells the Guardian of the Galaxy that he will see him at Fast Lane.
Main Event time:
Casket Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship – Kane (champion) vs. Brock Lesnar (challenger w/ Paul Heyman): Yet another back and forth contest between The Demon and The Beast. Kane looked to finish off Lesnar with a Top Rope Clothesline attempt, but Brock side stepped the champion and countered with a Kamara Lock. Kane screamed in pain but somehow reached the bottom rope. Brock had no choice but to break the hold. After taking Kane to Suplex City 5 times, Brock hit an F5 for good measure. Lesnar dominated the finish. As the referees opened the casket lid, Brock rolled Kane into the casket as Heyman screamed for the lid to be shut.
Winner and New WWE World Heavyweight Champion: Brock Lesnar
Paul Heyman jumps up and down and celebrates in the ring with the now 2 Time WWE Champion. Heyman puts the title on Brock’s shoulders as the casket is now taken away from ringside. “You are the champion,” Heyman repeatedly tells Brock. As the casket is being taken up the ramp, the lights go out. The lights quickly come back on. Heyman & Brock laugh in the ring. The casket lid opens. Somehow, Undertaker is now inside the casket. The Deadman jumps out of the casket, and heads to the ring. Heyman goes flying out of the ring, scraed as all hell. Brock & Undertaker exchange rights and lefts. Brock grabs Taker, attempting an F5, Taker counters and hits Brock with a Chokeslam. Triple H’s Authority song hits. The Game comes down to the ring, grabs the microphone and says, “This is what you wanted Brock, now you got it champ. And at Fast Lane you have Unfinished Business with this man (points at Undertaker). It looks like your first title defense will be against The Deadman.” As Brock uses Triple H as his aid to get back to his feet, Triple H hits Brock with a Pedigree to end the show.
