Raw results, April 18, 2016: Jericho breaks it down for Ambrose in London

As Shane-O-Mac prepares to run his third consecutive Raw, Dean Ambrose invites WWE's Prodigal Son into "The Ambrose Asylum."

LONDON — Shane McMahon running Raw for the third straight week? Dean Ambrose’s talk show getting a second installment? This truly is madness, if not quite anarchy, in the U.K. Shane-O-Mac’s third turn at the wheel featured no shortage of upheaval, however, as WWE’s Prodigal Son summarized his "new era" of signings with a simple mantra: “We have arrived.”

No sooner had he made that proclamation than his sit-down with The Lunatic Fringe was interrupted by Chris Jericho, Kevin Owens, and Sami Zayn, all riled into a frenzy from a SmackDown’s worth of aggression and looking for a donnybrook to resolve their issues. Shane had a couple solutions in mind, sanctioning Ambrose vs. Jericho and Owens vs. Zayn for WWE Payback, but even after only two weeks at the helm, the McMahon scion knew good and well where the current confrontation was heading, and made himself scarce before the fists started flying.

In a rematch from their SmackDown collision, The Underdog from the Underground battles the egotistical "Best in the World at What He Does" as Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens look on from the announce table.

Last week on SmackDown, the interference of Kevin Owens and Dean Ambrose landed Chris Jericho on the wrong end of a disqualification loss to Sami Zayn. The Shane-O-Mac mandated rematch between the two world-traveled Canadians ended in a far more decisive and, if you’re a Sami Zayn fan, disappointing, fashion. All of which is to say Jericho won, though it wasn’t nearly as simple as Codebreaker-1-2-3-hit the showers.

In fact, Zayn had been in the driver’s seat for the entire contest, landing a Blue Thunder Bomb and tornado DDT through the ropes to leave Jericho slumped against the ropes and dead to rights for the Helluva Kick. But Jericho reduced himself to a cowering heap before the boot could land its mark, taking advantage of the referee’s blind spot to thumb Zayn in the eye. Then, it was Codebreaker-1-2-3-hit the showers.

The dancing Superstar faces The Lone Wolf in this Raw matchup.

Getting back onto the dance floor hasn’t gone so smoothly for ol’ Fandango. A well-intentioned alliance with Goldust failed to pay out on SmackDown, and ’Dango’s tango with Baron Corbin on Raw ended … well, about as well as you’d expect it to end for someone who stands up to WWE’s newest powerhouse. Fandango showed some impressive athleticism in his bid to take down The Lone Wolf, but he ultimately joined Zack Ryder on Corbin’s victim list on the strength of an End of Days. Corbin didn’t let his decimation of Fandango stop him from throwing some more aggression Dolph Ziggler’s way — he chucked Fandango over the announce table into The Showoff at commentary, and finished off his night with another End of Days to Zig Man after the bell.

Per Shane McMahon, eight elite Superstars battle it out in this eight-man tag team bout.

Cesaro and Booty-O’s: a match made in heaven. And a match that wins matches, too, as The Swiss Superman and The New Day united to overthrow the combination of The Miz & The League of Nations in a bout stemming from a tense “Miz TV” between Cesaro and The Awesome One, who’ll meet for Miz’s Intercontinental Title at WWE Payback.

There was barely even a learning curve for Cesaro & New Day, who rolled to a seemingly insurmountable advantage (The King of Swing even got in on the Unicorn Stampede!). The League briefly rallied by swarming Xavier Woods, but a late-game tag to Cesaro led to an Uppercut Express that left all four opponents seeing stars. Legal man Sheamus’ fellow fiends attempted to break up the contest, but The New Day drove them back one by one (Big E dispatched both Alberto Del Rio and Miz), leading to a Neutralizer that put The Celtic Warrior down for three.

Cesaro forms an unlikely team with The New Day to face The League of Nations and The Miz on Raw.

WWE's Women's division ignites with a massive tag team clash on Raw.

So Natalya’s got another shot at Charlotte at WWE Payback. This might be a problem for Charlotte, since The Queen of Harts made the WWE Women’s Champion tap out with no disqualification in sight to save her at the conclusion of a wild, eight-woman battle on Raw. Not only that, but Natalya ended up saving the match for her team, which was evenly matched against a squad of scoundrels in Charlotte, Naomi, Tamina & Summer Rae. Ironically, it was Charlotte who set herself up for defeat by tagging in off Summer Rae, who had been holding steady against Natalya. The No. 1 contender found her second wind the second Charlotte entered the ring, capitalizing off a ring-clearing assist from her teammates to tap the champion out with (yep) flair.

A massive Women's devision clash pits eight Superstars against each other on Raw.

The sensational Apollo Crews takes on The Social Outcasts' "Crimson Werewolf," Heath Slater.

Ever since he showed up on Raw, Apollo Crews has been running through all of The Social Outcasts, one member at a time. That, oddly enough, earned him a formal invitation to join the social-media savvy faction, which he accepted provided one of the Outcasts could beat him on Raw. That challenge was answered by Heath Slater, but sadly for the social media darling Heathy Baby, his effort against Crews went the same way as those of his #squad, a loss via Spinning Sit-out Powerbomb — though Slater did come close with a rollup reversal of a crossbody.

Per the agreement Crews struck before the match, that means The Social Outcasts have to leave him be forever. It’s just as well: a pointed, post-match staredown between Crews and Kevin Owens on the ramp suggests Crews may have a bigger target on his mind soon enough.
