Monday Night Raw Results 3/23/15: WWE Raw Recap March 23, 2015: WrestleMania 31 Go-Home Show Featuring Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar Face-to-Face, Sting Confronts Triple H, Hulk Hogan Appears

The March 23, 2015 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw emanates live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles and begins with Sting!

The crowd chants for him and Sting says "So this is what it feels like to kick off Monday Night Raw!" He talks about Triple H's rise to power and how he thinks he's unstoppable. Sting says he is not here to fight for WCW. He just wants to take down The Game.

Stephanie McMahon heads to the ring and insults him a bit. He says she had everything handed to her and sarcastically says it's nice to meet her. Stephanie says he's like a loyal dog when it comes to WCW, but dogs are stupid and it would be an insult to dogs to compare him to one. She says WCW lost the Monday Night Wars, and Sting will lose to her husband on Sunday.

She calls him a face-painted freak, but he just woos and winks at her in response. She tries to slap him, but he grabs her hand. Triple H then angrily heads to the ring. He talks to Stephanie briefly and then climbs on the apron. Steph hands him his sledgehammer, but Sting grabs his bat and starts swinging like crazy. He tries to goad Triple H into the ring, but he walks away. Stephanie gets in between them and says to save it for WrestleMania.

Dean Ambrose and R-Truth defeat Luke Harper and Stardust when Truth hits Stardust with the Lie Detector. Bad News Barrett was on commentary. He escapes with his Intercontinental title as Ambrose and Truth dance.

Renee Young interviews some members of the 2015 Special Olympics team.

Ryback, Erick Rowan, Zack Ryder, Titus O'Neil, and Darren Young defeat The Miz, Damien Mizdow, The Ascension, and Adam Rose. Bill Simmons was on commentary. The babyfaces control a significant majority of the match and Ryback Shell Shocks Miz for the win.

Randy Orton defeats Seth Rollins and J&J Security, who never let The Viper actually get to Rollins. For their trouble, he hits a double DDT from the middle rope and then RKOs Jamie Noble for the pin.

An interview with John Cena airs and he talks about why the United States Championship match with Rusev on Sunday is so important to him and his country.

Paige is backstage fiddling with makeup when AJ Lee walks in and they talk about how the Bella Twins are trying to drive a wedge between them. Paige throws the word "crazy" at AJ, which causes a little bit of discomfort.

Nikki Bella defeats Paige to retain her Divas Championship when AJ accidentally costs her the match by elbowing her. Nikki capitalizes and hits the Rack Attack for the pin.

Snoop Dogg comes out and talks about WrestleMania for a little bit until Curtis Axel comes out. Snoop says he's a clown who is forgetting about the original Mania: Hulkamania.

Hulk Hogan then comes out and talks about how Hulkamania would live on forever, while Snoopamania would drop it low. He then asks what Axel is smoking. Axel rips his shirt off and asks whatcha gonna do, but Hogan clocks him and Snoop Dogg tosses him out of the ring. He takes his shirt off to reveal a Hulkamania shirt of his own.

Los Matadores and El Torito defeat Tyson Kidd, Cesaro, and Natalya when the little bull pins Nattie. The Usos were on commentary.

Kane confiscates BNB's title belt and threatens to strip him of it if he doesn't comply.

Rusev defeats Jack Swagger with the Accolade. He refuses to let go, so Cena comes out to make the save. Rusev weathers his initial attack and then tosses the 15-time world champion into the barricade and the commentary area. Rusev waves his flag in celebration, but Cena starts to recover. Rusev drops the flag and promptly kicks Cena in the head. He tears the announce table apart, puts him on it, and locks in the Accolade.

Bray Wyatt comes to the ring and cuts a fantastic promo on The Undertaker. He says he will make Taker rest in peace on Sunday.

Kevin Nash is officially announced for the WWE Hall of Fame.

Dolph Ziggler defeats Daniel Bryan with Dean Ambrose as special guest referee. The match ends when Bryan goes for a corner dropkick, but Ziggler superkicks him and hits a Zig Zag for the win.

After the match, Ambrose plants Ziggler with Dirty Deeds. He sets up a ladder in the ring, and all seven men in the ladder match on Sunday come out and brawl. The seven combatants are littered about the ring to end the segment.

Backstage, Paul Heyman fetches Brock Lesnar for his face-to-face with Roman Reigns. The two men head to the ring, and Lesnar has a beard! Heyman "yak yaks" for a while because he has nothing left to say to people if they aren't going to tune in to WrestleMania on Sunday to watch Lesnar beat down another man.

Heyman says someone will be proven right or wrong on Sunday when either Lesnar or Reigns walks out champion on Sunday. He puts over Lesnar's accomplishments from last year and says he is not a mercenary. He is a fierce competitor who takes the title personally and conquers everything put before him. Heyman says Reigns says "I can and I will" but Lesnar will prove on Sunday that he can't and he won't.

Reigns heads to the ring and stares down Lesnar. Reigns mouths that the title is his, but the champion just laughs and hoists the belt in his face. Reigns grabs it from him, looks at it, and holds it right back up at him. The two struggle for the belt as the show goes off the air.
