Big Show is also here to congratulate Heyman & Shane O’ Mac on their new partnership. Heyman says that, we are going to run things his way. “What is EXTREME for Business? Heyman questions?” Big Show shrugs. Heyman tells Shane O’Mac to kick us off. Shane says that tonight, the US Champion Big Show will team with the Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler to start Raw. Ziggler comes down to shake Big Show’s hand after his victory over Sting at Wrestlemania. Dolph questions whether or not he can trust Big Show. Dolph says to Shane, “He is not the most trustworthy tag partner is he?” Dolph reminds Big Show who stole the show at Wrestlemania. Heyman says, “well you two have about 10 seconds to get along because here are your opponents”… The Dudley Boyz come out.

Up next, NXT Champion Tyler Breeze made his Raw debut by defeating Jack Swagger with a Super Model Kick
Back in the Extreme Authority’s office, Rusev, Alberto Del Rio, & Sheamus of the League of Nations are invited in. Shane says that the Social Outcasts actions are uncalled for, so instead of rewarding them for beating you guys at Wrestlemania (points to League of Nations), instead tonight is your opportunity. Rusev, Del Rio & Sheamus look confused. Heyman then informs the League of Nations they will be facing each other tonight on Raw. Paulie says that it won’t be a Triple Threat match. However, it will be a good old fashioned 3 way dance.
Kane def. Stardust with a Chokeslam. After the match, Mean Gene caught up with The Demon. Okerlund asks Kane on his opinions on the Extreme Authority. Before Kane can answer, Shane walks up. Shane reminds Kane of his cruel actions towards him in the past. “But that was the past,” says Shane. “I think that streaks are meant to be broken and after your victories at Wrestlemania and tonight, I am giving you an Intercontinental Championship match at Payback.” Shane taps Kane on the sholder and wishes The Demon good luck at potentially adding more gold to his resume. Can Kane end Ziggler’s reign as Intercontinental Champion.

Back from break, Lesnar and Heyman are in the ring as they await Brock’s challenger. Mark Henry’s song hits.
Michael Hayes: “No way. The Big Viscera Memorial Battle Royal winner.”
JBL: He may regret this open challenge guys. That is the World’s Strongest Man.”
RVD: “Awesome.”
Brock & Heyman appear to be surprised, but Brock is ready for action wasting little time by striking Henry upon Mark getting in the ring. Brock takes Mark to Suplex city. Heyman looks for weapons under the ring as Brock grabs a chair. Lesnar nails Henry with a chair at least 5 times. Heyman hands a Singapore cane to Brock. Brock waits for Henry to get to his feet, Lesnar swings, but Henry counters. Henry grabs the cane, tosses it out of the ring and hits a World’s Strongest Slam. Henry goes for the cover, but Brock kicks out. Henry tries to set Brock up for a Bear Hug, but Brock powers out. Brock hits an F5, but Henry kicks out. Heyman now finds a garbage can under the ring. Brock sets up the garbage can in the corner between the top and middle ropes. Henry charges at Brock, who sidesteps Henry as Mark hit the garbage can. Brock hits the F5 again and pins Henry to retain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. As Henry holds his title up high in celebration, the lights go out. When they come back on, Undertaker is in the ring. Brock runs at Taker, but is Chokeslammed. Shane O’ Mac comes out on the stage. Shane says, clearly there is unfinished business from Fast Lane.
