Kofi unloaded on Lashley after the bell but was sent crashing into the mat for a near fall on RAW. Kingston got out of the vertical suplex before hitting some big dropkicks and a baseball slide. Kofi hit a dive over the ropes and Lashley looked to be in trouble as we headed for a break.

Back on RAW, Lashley was back in control with a huge elbow in the corner. Lashley got the vertical suplex before getting a near fall. Kofi managed to hit a DDT on the champ before hitting a big dive.

Woods tried to interfere before being sent to the back. While the ref was distracted, MVP was about to hit Kofi with his cane but Drew McIntyre walked in and took it away. Drew then hit Lashley with the cane.
