Raw results, May 30, 2016: The Club reunites to 'welcome' Cena to The New Era

The WWE Tag Team Champions take on the grapplers from a "bygone era" on Raw.

It’s fair to say that, if not for Kofi Kingston’s timely assistance at Extreme Rules, The Vaudevillains could very well be WWE Tag Team Champions instead of The New Day. So you can certainly understand why the gentlemen brawlers were more in the mood to humiliate the champions in a non-title tussle on Raw as opposed to simply beating them.

They had a little help in doing so, too, as Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson attacked Kingston and Xavier Woods at ringside, at which point the ’Villains teamed up on the lone legal man: Big E. With all three champions down, Aiden English & Simon Gotch ceded the ring in gentlemanly fashion to Gallows & Anderson, who pummeled Big E with the Magic Killer.

Breezango’s been on a roll lately against The Golden Truth, but the hot streak of the most devastatingly handsome tag team in WWE turned cold in a hurry when they went up against The Usos on Raw. They were so preoccupied with Goldust and R-Truth at ringside that The Usos managed to pin Fandango with a crucifix rollup. Breezango blamed the loss, ironically, on Golden Truth, who were watching from commentary, and decided to start a little something with the odd couple. That, too, went south in a hurry as Golden Truth fought back, driving Breezango away and displaying, for the first time, some true unity.

Long Island Iced-Z aims to make a statement against the dominant United States Champion.

Last Memorial Day, Zack Ryder rolled the dice and answered John Cena’s U.S. Open Challenge. He fell short at the time, but having tasted success at WrestleMania, the revitalized Ultimate Broski threw himself back into the mix against the current U.S. Champion Rusev in a non-title match on Raw. Unfortunately, this match went the same way as the last one: A heartfelt effort ended in defeat, in this case at the receiving end of an Accolade.

All of which was enough to provoke Rusev to declare his superiority over the entirety of the USA. Titus O’Neil wasn’t convinced, however. The Big Deal got in Rusev’s face for the second time in four days, only this time he followed through and socked the champion in the face. Alas, Rusev stopped short of retaliation, but a little persistence may go a long way yet for O’Neil.

Enzo returns to the ring alongside Big Cass to battle Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley.

Ever since Enzo Amore & Big Cass arrived on the scene, they’ve had to deal with, in some form or another, those cuppa’ haters The Dudley Boyz. Well, consider the jamokes smoked, because Enzo & Cass knocked off the Attitude Era veterans on Raw in “Smacktalker Skywalker’s” first official match back in nearly a month. It did get hairy for a bit when the Dudleys managed to isolate Enzo (aka “Muscles Marinara”) from his partner. But once Cass (aka “Don Parmesan” — lots of cheese metaphors for the tri-state boys tonight) got into the mix, it was a quick sprint to the Rocket Launcher that put D-Von Dudley down for the count.

The Queen of Harts clashes with the imposing Dana Brooke in a bout presented by "Warcraft."

Dana Brooke more or less cost Natalya the WWE Women’s Championship at Extreme Rules. On this, there is no dispute. But that doesn’t mean The Queen of Harts had to take the insult lying down. She squared off one-on-one with Dana on Raw in an attempt to rectify the two-on-one mugging she endured on SmackDown. Charlotte didn’t interfere outright in this match, but she provided a distraction that allowed Dana to steal a win with her sit-out Michinoku Driver. Before the duo could put a further beating on Natalya, Becky Lynch sprinted to the ring to make the save, driving Charlotte and Dana back into the crowd.

Turnabout is fair play when it comes to The Showoff and The Lone Wolf.

As you may know, Dolph Ziggler was a record-setting collegiate wrestler at his alma mater, Kent State University. So it would make sense that The Showoff would challenge his rival Baron Corbin to a technical wrestling match after The Lone Wolf low-blowed him at Extreme Rules — what better way to humiliate Corbin than by luring him onto Dolph’s own turf? Well, turns out the whole technical-wrestling challenge was little more than a bait-and-switch for Ziggler to kick Corbin square in the groin, Charlie-Brown style, the second the bell rang. Needless to say, that’s hardly scientific, not to mention a DQ under any set of rules. But it ain’t like Corbin’s going to be enjoying his victory all that much anyway. Go Golden Flashes!
