At the start of Raw, the Shield is on security detail for the McMahon power twosome once again. We see the 11 superstars who assisted Daniel Bryan standing on top of the entrance ramp. Stephanie thanks the superstars for actually standing up and being men. When RVD interjects and says they were actually really helping Daniel Bryan, Triple H informs all the men they will be in a match and their partner will be Daniel Bryan. He says he hopes their partner actually cares to help them as much as they helped him. And since Triple H believed the anarchy was caused by the men being angry at The Shield rather than them caring for Daniel Bryan, he places them on an 11 on 3 handicap match.

11 Superstars vs. The Shield

Before the match even gets underway the Shield is surprised by a sudden attack by Cody Rhodes and his brother Goldust. Following the attack Raw goes to commercial and the real match get’s underway.

The Shield strikes first in this match with Dean Ambrose eliminating both Kofi Kingston and RVD who were banged up from early matches in the evening. Roman Reigns followed up the trend by eliminating three of the opposing team: Titus O’Neil, Justin Gabriel and Zack Ryder. His spear nearly breaks Zack Ryder in half and none of the men got much offense in against the big man.
However when Reigns faced Bryan things would change fast for the Shield. Daniel Bryan knocks Rollins and Ambrose off the apron onto the floor before nailing Reigns with a high knee. Soon after he falls victim to a Samoan splash, handing him his first loss in over a year. Seth then knocks off Darren Young with a flying knee. He faces off against Dolph Ziggler, bouncing his head off the turnbuckle before tagging in his partner. Ambrose would fall victim to the Zig-zag. Seth would be left as the only man left standing and would eliminate R-Truth.
Following R-Truth exit Daniel Bryan encouraged the remaining members of his team to surround the ring on the apron before jumping Seth. They would break the attack when Ambrose and Reigns arrived to save their partner. Dolph and the Uso’s cleared Ambrose and Reigns from the ring once again as Daniel and Seth were left in the ring. Seth briefly mounted a come from behind attack on Bryan but fell victim to a flying headbutt. The Shield was handed a loss in this one and one can only wonder what the McMahon’s are thinking now.

Shield vs. Superstars that helped Daniel Bryan (11 Man Gauntlet Match)

Darren Young is the first to face the Shield three and quickly gets surrounded on all sides in the corner, taking punches from everyone. His shirt is ripped off and Rollins uses the shirt as a whip on Young’s back. He is quickly finished off with the spear from Reigns. Young’s partner Titus O’Neil is next up and seems to have a better chance given his larger size. Ambrose leaps onto O’Neil’s back as Rollins grabs his feet. Reign’s hits the ropes and the big man is taken down. Titus falls victim to the triple power-bomb and is pinned by Reigns again. Vickie sits at ringside happily clapping at her handiwork.
Ziggler hits the ring as fast as he can but gets whipped off the corner landing on his head by Rollins. He subsequently gets stomped on by all three shield members. But the more resilient Ziggler kicks back at Ambrose and then Rollins. He even manages to nail Reigns. Ziggler knocks both Reigns and Ambrose out of the ring before Ambrose grabs his foot, stopping his momentum for Rollins to nail him with an impressive athletic drop kick. Ziggler than falls victim to the spear and is counted out.
Kingston the next man out also quickly gets neutralized by Rollins and Ambrose. When it appears as though Ziggler is rallying against them, Reigns enters and gets hit with trouble in paradise. Ambrose saves the match up. Alone with Abrose and Rollins Kofi gets beat down by both men. Kofi gets planted by Ambrose and pinned.
Next man up is Rob Van Dam who looks as if he is carefully trying to form a plan. Rollins and Ambrose are the only men standing still and RVD spins in a circle confusing Ambrose who accidently connects with Seth’s ribs instead. He hits an interesting version of rolling thunder on both Ambrose and Rollins. Van Dam connects hard with Seth’s jaw and knocks Reigns back out of the ring. He then connects a kick on Ambrose. Before Van Dam can get a victory Triple H interjects and orders Vickie back to his office and summons the Shield to leave the ring.

The Shield vs. The Usos and Daniel Bryan
Rollins attempts to squash Bryan at the beginning of the match but gets caught in a surfboard at the early start of the match. Next in to be tagged is Jimmy Uso who faces off with Ambrose. He and his partner unleash some third generation tag team power on Ambrose.
At the height of that match Bryan counters Rollins onslaught and plants him on his back. Rollins and Ambrose pull of a splits type move on Jey Uso which looks exceptionally painful.
All hell breaks loose in this match which sees almost every member of the match meet the floor. Daniel Bryan gets the win with his high knee once again.

When Stephanie McMahon invited Dusty Rhodes for some “business discussion we all knew there was going to be trouble. When the Dream refused to cooperate with any of Stephanie’s demands the Shield and Big Show were summoned to the ringside area. When it seemed like the Big Show was refusing to act on Stephanie’s order to knock out Dusty, The Shield was told to “get him!” Just as the Shield three were about to jump Dusty, The Big Show made it clear he wasn’t going to let them, prompting Roman Reigns to pass out chairs as weapons. The Shield stood at the ready with the steel chairs waiting for a chance to strike, but in the end Big Show followed through with the lady bosses orders and the Shield leaves the ringside area.

Later on in the Show Seth, Dean and Randy Orton would accompany Reigns to ringside for his match against Daniel Bryan.
