PLAY BY PLAY
The NEW NXT Champion is here!
The Big Booty Nephew may not have won this title at Stand & Deliver, but he was granted another chance on Raw and cashed in. The belt now has NXT rainbow ingrained in the gold, and Bron is finally THE guy! Bron gets the mic as fans bark it up, and he says, “Man, what a weekend. My first WrestleMania Weekend with a lot of ups and downs.” Fans duel, “We Want Ziggler!” “No, we don’t!” Bron says one of the greatest moments in his life was that he got to honor and induct his father and uncle, the Steiner Brothers, into the Hall of Fame. Saturday, Stand & Deliver, the biggest match of his life, and he failed. He did not get the job done, he won’t make an excuse.
But that very same day, he got to see WrestleMania for the very first time and saw stars like Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Kevin Owens and Stone Cold Steve Austin! And it got Bron thinking. One: Bron wants to headline Mania one day! And two: he wasn’t going to leave without “OUR NXT Championship.” So Bron picked himself up, dusted himself off, showed up to the biggest Raw of the year, challenged Ziggler again, and beat his ass in the center of that ring to bring this belt back to where it belongs! But wait! Here comes IMPERIUM! Gunther leads Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner to the ring, but Bron doesn’t budge.
Gunther gets a mic to tell Bron, “That was a nice little story you told all of us here. You had a great week, it seems, but nobody cares about that!” All Gunther wants is the NXT title and what it stands for! That title stands for being the best here in NXT. The issue is, Bron cannot call himself the best until he’s stepped to Der Ring General, GUNTHER! Bron says, “I’ve had a hell of a weekend, but if you want it, you got it! Right here, tonight!” Is that Bron saying he’ll put this belt on the line?! Is Bron going to break Gunther? Or will Gunther break Bron? Wait, here come the Creed Brothers! NXT goes to break, what’s about to go down?!

Backstage interview with Toxic Attraction.
Mandy Rose still has her NXT Women’s Championship, but Gigi & Jacy are former champions. Not that we should get used to that. If it wasn’t for the pajama wearing freak, Wendy Choo, splashing Gigi with soda, they’d still be champions! And it’s been a week since that reunion of Dakota & Raquel, and Jacy is sick of it! They just wanna vomit when seeing those two with Toxic Attraction’s titles. They will end Raquel and Dakota tonight! See what happens when you make them angry? Women get hurt. Mandy will still have her gorgeous title, and then Gigi & Jacy become two-time champions. Because Toxic Attraction is still THE attraction in NXT!
Cameron Grimes is here!
The NEW NXT North American Champion won perhaps the biggest ladder match in all of WWE history, and he has the mic to say, “LEMME HEAR YA!” Fans chant, “You Deserve It!” and Grimes says, “Guys. I just want to say… We did it. I made good on my promise, and I know my dad’s looking down, smiling ear to ear. Cuz his boy did it.” People in this business talk about climbing the ladder to success. At Stand & Deliver, Grimes did just that! standing atop that ladder, holding this title, Grimes would be lying if he didn’t say time stood still. But his father giving his blood, sweat and tears, and more importantly, his father as a single dad giving all that to raise Grimes into the man he is tonight.
For the past three years, Grimes has busted his ass cuz he needed to prove his dad was right that Grimes deserves to be a WWE superstar. So Grimes wants us to know that it is so awesome to say, “Cameron Grimes is your NEW North American Champion!” But he won’t be complacent. See, Grimes is gonna do everything he can to make sure that this title goes up, down, all around, multiple trips #ToTheMoon! But wait, here comes SOLO SIKOA! The Street Champion of the Island tells Grimes, “Hey man, listen. I just want to congratulate you. You made good promises to your dad, and brought a hell of a performance at Stand & Deliver.”
Everyone was saying Grimes was gonna do it, which is cool. But this is the hard part where Grimes has to hold on to it. Solo came here to face the best, and championships run through his bloodline. “So straight up, man to man, I’m asking you, a champion needs a challenger. And that challenger is me.” Grimes says he respects Solo. When he looks into Solo’s eyes, he sees a man that has fought every day to be right here in this moment. And if Grimes is what he says he is, then that means he has to beat people just like Solo. So, Uce, you’re on! Grimes offers a handshake, Solo takes it, and it seems the match is set!
But then Solo pulls Grimes in closer. Grimes laugh sit off, but he’s still taking Solo seriously. Will Grimes be able to hold onto the belt he fought so hard to get? Or will the Street Champion upgrade himself to a North American Champion?
Joe Gacy speaks.
“The world is a dark and awful place sometimes. But the one true beacon of light is found, through blood or bond, having someone you can trust as the most important thing in life. Someone that knows every side of you. Your deepest thoughts, your truest vulnerabilities, what makes you tick inside. It is imperative to success. And if you don’t have family, it only leads to self-destruction.”
Draco Anthony is watching Gacy speak.
Xyon Quinn walks in and tells Draco to not listen to that. But Draco doesn’t want Quinn telling him what to do. Hey, he’s just having his back. Well Draco doesn’t need that! No? Well what you need is to learn respect. Is Draco only isolating himself further? Or will Quinn get his words through to Draco with his fists?
Backstage interview with Tiffany Stratton.
McKenzie asks Tiffany why she wanted this time. Tiffany knows it was the most STUPENDOUS WrestleMania Weekend ever, but did everyone forget the travesty that happened to her? Hello, Sarray the schoolgirl cost her another match! Um, Warrior of the Sun Sarray. Ugh, correcting people is so unattractive. It doesn’t matter what she’s called, Sarray will never see the sun again after Tiffany breaks her and that necklace. Tiffany is not a loser, she’s a winner, and she’ll say it so even Sarray can understand, “I’m. Not. A. LOSER!” Tiffany huffs and puffs but will she be the one running left in the dark?
Dexter Lumis w/ Indi Hartwell VS Duke Hudson w/ Persia Pirotta!
#InDex won the Hotter Couple poll in a landslide over #Dusia, and naturally that didn’t sit well with the losers. Will Duke show everyone that what’s really hot is being able to manhandle anyone he wants? Or will Dexter prove looks can kill?
As #InDex makes their entrance, Indi makes eyes at Dexter, but makes sure he keeps his eyes on Duke. But then Persia locks her lips with Duke’s, and Indi wants to puke.

Then Duke rains down big rights! Persia taunts Indi and Duke storms about. Duke CLUBS Dexter down, then digs a knee into Dexter’s back. Duke clamps on a chinlock but Dexter endures. Fans rally, Dexter pries at the fingers but Duke clamps on tighter. Dexter fights up, but Duke SLAMS him down!
Duke wraps on a chinlock and he leans on Dexter. Persia continues to taunt Indi but fans rally. Dexter fights his way up, and Dexter throws body shots. Then he gets around to hit a BIG back suplex!

Double Count-Out Draw
The men end up falling over on their ladies, and both Indi and Persia are shouting at each other that it’s the other’s fault! Will these former friends find a way to settle this?
Backstage interview with Dakota Kai & Raquel Gonzalez.
McKenzie congratulates them on winning back these tag titles, but asks them how they respond to Toxic Attraction’s comments from earlier. Dakota says we all know they’ve done way more damage to each other than Toxic Attraction ever could. And we also know that when someone’s scared, they tend to make threats. That is what is going on here. Dakota & Raquel have been the most dominant females on this brand before Toxic Attraction, and now they are again here. Which is only going to continue. That’s just bad news for Gigi & Jacy. The frenemies are back on top, but will they be able to stay on top?
Barthel complains to Gunther.
Though it’s all in German and there are no subs, it is clear Barthel is furious and confused about Aichner leaving during the match. Gunther tells him to calm down. Barthel and Aichner need to straighten this out. Gunther is going to be challenging for THE NXT Championship tonight, he will restore the honor of this great sport. There can be no more distractions, got that? Barthel accepts that, but just what is happening within Imperium?

Dakota & Raquel suffer a Toxic Screw Job! Mandy, Gigi & Jacy have all the gold again, and Mandy mocks how “cute” their run was. But is this only going to put those targets on their backs again?
Gacy speaks again.
“Chaos defines you as a person. What do you do when everything is going wrong and the panic button is pressed? Chaos erupts and you reach out to your family. Your father, your mother, your sister, your brother. You do your best to control that chaos. But what happens when you can’t control it? Chaos then controls you.” Just what will come from Gacy’s ominous messages?
NXT returns with AJ Galante in the ring.
Galante introduces himself, “the former president of the original bad boys of hockey, the infamous Danbury Trashers.” Don’t know who they are? Look ’em up. But it is his pleasure to introduce to us the man of the hour who we’re all here for: Tony D’Angelo! Galante steps aside to reveal a table, glasses of wine, and a ring on a velvet pillow and pedestal. Tony makes his entrance, gets in the ring, and hugs it out with Galante. Fans boo but Tony says, “How great was our Stand & Deliver, huh?” Everyone was cheering on Tommaso Ciampa, but everyone thought he was gonna walk right through Tony.
We all saw what happened! But what Tony did Saturday was unbelievable. Tonight, it gets even better. They’ll finish the ceremony. Galante says Tony on the table is a card with his blood, signifying Tony is ready to take The Oath of the Don. When his blood hit that card, he acknowledge and accepted the unbreakable oath. Tony entered this oath on his feet, and if he betrays it, he leaves on his back. Tony’s loyalty can never, ever be questioned. Galante tells the fans to shut up for this and show some respect. The code of silence can never be broken. And if it is, Tony’s soul will burn in hell. This is a thing of honor. Is Tony ready to accept?
Fans chant “BORING~” as Tony says yes. Galante puts the ring on Tony’s pinkie, and then gives him a kiss on the cheek. Ladies and gentlemen, Galante is honored to officially and formally present to us the Don of NXT, Tony D’Angelo! These two toast with the wine, and the graphic makes it legit. Tony is smiling ear to ear, but will he look to add gold besides that pinkie ring?
Backstage interview with MSK.
Wes Lee & Nash Carter are the NEW NXT Tag Team Champions, how did it feel to get the belts back? After five months of twists and turns, guidance and direction, the titles are back home! And they can say that first time, they didn’t appreciate the titles like they do now. There are a lot of hungry teams who want an opportunity, so MSK says come get it! The Creeds didn’t get pinned, so there’s that, but Pretty Deadly’s making some noise now. MSK told everyone they didn’t attack the Creeds, so they’re vindicated. But then Grayson Waller & Sanga walk in and, though his arm is in a sling, Waller says MSK didn’t make the most noise at Stand & Deliver, he did! Waller went viral!
Yeah, he made noise. When he bounced off that ladder, then cried in the locker room. But hey, Waller can remain a viral sensation all he wants, MSK is Gucci being the one thing he ain’t: a champion! Sanga says they won’t be champions for long! Waller says, “Yeah, what he said!” These two will take those titles from MSK real quick! Well sounds like they want this tonight. MSK can get ready right now. Uh, no, Waller isn’t 100%. But go call that shaman, cuz when Waller & Sanga get the belts, MSK goes back to square one where they belong!
MSK says they’ll call him anyway, just to party. But will the 21st Century Success Story and his massive henchmen become a tag team to be reckoned with?
Dakota is furious!
She kicks and throws things around backstage, even a ladder! “Mandy Rose! You’re not safe!” Has Toxic Attraction unleashed the venom inside #CobraKai?

The pride of Lyons is matched by her power! Will Lyons hunt down the title and become THE alpha female of NXT?
Tony and Galante head out.
What do they have for later? Galante’s dad and uncle have this thing set up, a whole feast. But then Legado del Fantasma walk over. Santos Escobar offers The Don a handshake of respect. He congratulates Tony on this honor. Tony appreciates that. Escobar is no stranger to being a boss, El Jefe, El Patron. So Escobar offers some advice: Tony needs to keep his business out of Legado’s business, and everything will be okay. Legado heads out, how will The Don respond to this veiled threat?
Kushida speaks.
The Time Splitter tells Von Wagner, “You attacked me, but worse than that, you attacked my friend, Jiro. It wasn’t enough to just hit him. You tore his jacket and took away part of him. But I’m not afraid of you, Von Wagner. Your time is up!” Will the Super Junior be able to topple Robert Stone’s personal goliath?

Gunther CLUBS away on Bron as fans chant, “This is Awesome!” CHOP to the back!! Gunther hauls Bron up, reels him in, LARIAT!! Cover, TWO?!?! Somehow Bron is still in this, maybe he’s a Genetic Freak! Gunther drags Bron to a drop zone and goes up the corner again. GUNTHER- SPEAR FROM BRON!! Bron manages to take Gunther out of the air, and now he hauls him up, for Gunther to CHOP him! Bron throws a haymaker, Gunther CHOPS! Bron haymakers, Gunther CHOPS again!
Bron is staggering, but he comes back to knee low. But Gunther has the SLEEPER! Bron endures, moves around, but he’s fading! Fans rally and duel, but Bron gets a second wind to JAWBREAKER! And LARIAT! Bron staggers up, Gunther stands, and Bron manages to trophy lift! BREAKKER SLAM!! Cover, Bron wins!!
Winner: Bron Breakker, by pinfall (still NXT Champion)
Somehow, someway, Bron broke through to keep this title from Der Ring General! But wait, his dad is on the tron! He’s proud of Bron, but wait! He’s someone’s hostage!? Gacy was saying all night that family is everything. “Let’s see if we can teach this old dog some new tricks.” Harland has a chain, what is he going to do to Rick Steiner?!
My Thoughts:
Well this was quite the post Mania episode for NXT. To be fair, some rather confusing things, too. Bad commercial cut as the Creeds came out to confront Imperium, but we got a pretty good match out of them. I’m rather surprised this is the moment they’re deciding to have dysfunction in Imperium. Aichner has definitely proven himself as a great wrestler, whether in tag or singles matches, but I’m just not sure he’ll be able to carry on as just himself. It was kinda why he joined up with Imperium in the first place. It will be interesting to see where this goes, if there will be a replacement or not, but I just hope they have a plan in place and not just winging it.
And as for the Creeds, of course Pretty Deadly makes their appearance here since they didn’t do anything on Stand & Deliver. I really wish they didn’t go and rename Sam & Lewis into Elton & Kit, but whatever, it’s the same BS Vince is pulling with “Butch” Pete Dunne, “Gunther” and “Doudrop” Piper Niven. I suppose in that same way, this won’t hold Pretty Deadly back too much, but that doesn’t take away how stupid it all is. MSK has a good promo backstage, and I really liked their reaction to Sanga talking, because it fits my reaction, too. Waller shifting to the tag titles for the moment is fairly clever, and it buys time while Creeds and Pretty Deadly fight stuff out.
Tiffany had a good promo that fit her character, and of course she’s preparing for a rematch with Sarray. Since Tiffany already used up jumping Sarray backstage, pretty sure Sarray will be full Warrior of the Sun in the match and will win to prove Tiffany is a loser. We got a good match out of Lyons and Lash, and it made a lot of sense for Lyons to win. She’s got the hot hand right now, building her way up in the women’s division, and it makes me wonder if NXT (or WWE in general) will ever introduce a women’s midcard title. I’m sure Lyons can get to the top title eventually, but it would be nice if there was another champion she could feud with on the way up.
Okay, more confusing stuff here: Dexter VS Duke was pretty good, until that double count-out. For one, the almost pratfall nature of both guys hitting the post and tumbling onto their respective lady friends was just too corny. But this has to end with the Mixed Tag, #InDex VS #Dusia. We got a great tag title match out of that Stand & Deliver rematch, and yes, it is very annoying and confusing that Raquel & Dakota lose the tag titles again so soon. Including their first reign, those two have been champions for roughly 80 hours, and like 79 of those hours was from this reign. I suppose it’s similar to Johnny Gargano or Sasha Banks having a hard time defending titles, but it still feels rough.
But Dakota throwing a fit backstage and then getting a title shot is awesome! Dakota is going to give Mandy one hell of a match, Raquel and Wendy can both hold off Gigi & Jacy, but who knows if Dakota finally gets that top title. I personally hope so, Dakota’s put in so much work, but it’s all about how Vince and his team see her and Mandy. Kushida’s message to Von Wagner was good stuff, but I’m thinking Von finds a way to win this first match, or else we can’t take him seriously. Okay, it’s already hard to take him seriously but losing the first match in the feud with Jacket Time would hurt his big, bad Heel image.
Grimes had a good promo to follow up his big title win, and it was great for Solo to come out and challenge him. This should be left as a Face VS Face, great sportsmanship but still hard hitting match. No one needs to turn, we just need something awesome. And I would think Grimes retains because he only just got this belt. Of course, I say that and look what happened with Raquel & Dakota. Galante and Tony had an okay segment, and I do agree with the fans it got boring. Galante wasn’t the best talker here, and honestly, it wasn’t the most creative thing they could do. If there was going to be the point of blood on a card and a vow, give us that. Always do more when it comes to the storytelling.
I will say, Escobar confronting Tony in the parking lot was an interesting next step. I don’t think NXT will succeed in turning Tony Face after he basically cheated to beat Ciampa, one of NXT’s all time favorite stars. Escobar, sure, the live fans already cheer Escobar and Legado no matter what. But once again, Vince is going to make a decision that is baffling and we just have to stomach it. I’m sure Tony and Escobar will have solid matches because both men are capable, but they’re running into the same problems they’ve had with overly pushing Roman and Cena during their rises.
And speaking of which, Bron Breakker was getting booed and fans were wanting Ziggler over him. On one hand, a lot of fans just like Ziggler. On another, as I’ve said before, Bron got to be a two-time NXT Champion really quickly. And considering the other examples are Finn Balor, Shinsuke Nakamura, Samoa Joe, Tommaso Ciampa and even Karrion Kross, all having established themselves before NXT, then established themselves in NXT, Bron is definitely facing the backlash of Vince’s support. But ignoring fan reaction, Bron had a good promo, he had a good exchange with Gunther, and a great match with Gunther, that of course Bron won because he’s Mr. NXT 2.0.
But what a wild twist with Gacy at the end! His promos were cryptic in a good way, and it did spark a reaction out of Draco and Quinn. But Gacy using this to get a title shot, not sure how fans are going to like this. I again cite Vince’s bad pacing. If this was Gacy in late 2021 before spinning his wheels with Odyssey Jones, Roderick Strong, and now Draco Anthony, he’d be at a title scene level. All that stuff of making 205 Live inclusive and wanting to remove the restrictions on the Cruiserweight title made him firmly midcard and that’s a bit of a shame. He’ll give Bron one hell of a match, but again Bron will win, and there’s a chance fans will go full Go Away Heat on Bron.
My Score: 8.2/10

Roman Reigns arrives backstage.
And Adam Pearce catches him right as he exits the car. The Raw General Manager knows Roman is heated from last week but they need to discuss things first. Roman says first off, no, he wants to know where Jacob Fatu is at. And second, don’t you hear the fans already cheering for him? Hit his music! Pearce tries to calm Roman down but has to shout at him first. Jacob Fatu is not here… yet. But Seth Rollins is! Architect and Tribal Chief stare down, and Rollins says Roman is in his way. Roman steps aside, and Rollins’ song hits first! The fans in Omaha, Nebraska sing, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” as Rollins heads to the ring.
But then BRON BREAKKER CLOBBERS ROLLINS! Bron HAMMERS away on Rollins, drags him around, and throws hockey scrum body shots! Bron CLOBBERS Rollins again, then stands him back up so he can gorilla press him! Bron drops Rollins on barriers! Rollins falls back, sputters, but security and producers hurry out here. Bron THROWS security around! Then he drags Rollins up to RAM him into steel steps! Adam Pearce shouts at Bron but Bron drags Rollins into the ring! The refs get Bron to back off, producers check on Rollins, but then Bron breaks through to slip into the ring! SPEAR!!
Bron looms over Rollins while the fans bark. Rollins coughs and sputters while Bron tells him this is just a taste. Bron takes his leave, the damage done. But will he do even worse when the match is on for Backlash?
Judgment Day is in the clubhouse.
Liv Morgan says that Stephanie Vaquer is injured, no worrying about her anymore. But now to talk about the not so good news. Like what the hell was Finn doing in here last week?! Roxie doesn’t know, he must be delusional. Liv says she’s not worried about Finn, JD McDonagh finishes this tonight. Liv is worried about Roxie. Why did Finn think it was okay to talk to Roxie? Why didn’t Roxie tell them about it? Why did Liv have to watch it through Netflix to learn about what’s going on? Roxie says she didn’t mention it because she made it clear to Finn. She told him to get out and never come back. But Liv’s right, Roxie should’ve said something.
But don’t worry! Roxie’s loyal to Judgment Day, they know that. Yes, Liv is glad to hear that, because she believes in Roxie. Roxie & Raquel are going to be the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, they just can’t let anything get between the family. Promise Liv that you won’t keep secrets, Roxie. Roxie promises. Promises what…? That she will never keep any secrets from Judgment Day. Good. So they ready? Liv, Dom & JD head out, and Raquel pats Roxie on the head. But will things be (not) fine for Judgment Day?

Backstage interview with Seth Rollins.
Jackie Redmond apologizes to The Architect for bothering him, as he is clearly in pain after that vicious assault from Bron Breakker. But what does this mean for Backlash. Will Rollins be okay? Rollins says Backlash is in five days, he’ll be fine. Rollins told “the kid” last week, that if you take your shot, you better be able to finish the job. Rollins ain’t dead yet. Rollins storms off, will he be able to game plan a way to get around Bron’s speed, strength, and ruthless aggression?
The Vision regroups backstage.
Bron Breakker says he couldn’t let Rollins go to the ring and get on the mic to bore us all to death. He can’t stand listening to that guy! He’s like a duck! “Quack, quack! I’m the best wrestler in the world! Quack!” Austin Theory joins in, “Lemme sing my song! Quack quack!” Paul Heyman walks in and says, “Is Seth Rollins still breathing?” Bron says yes, he is. Logan Paul says one guy who won’t be is Joe Hendry! Logan’s gonna beat him to a pulp! Logan swears to God, let him get his hands on Hendry and he’ll hospitalize him permanently! PLEASE! Heyman says that’s why tonight, Logan is not fighting Joe Hendry. W-What?!
Heyman says Bron almost got suspended again, Brock Lesnar retired on us, and if Logan were to get his hands on Hendry, he’ll be put in jail for what he does to him! That’s why tonight, it is Joe Hendry VS Austin Theory. Theory says it’s alright, Maverick. If Logan wants Hendry smacked around, Theory will smack him around. If Logan wants Hendry hurt, Theory will hurt him. He’ll put the Pressure on Hendry, and Logan can just watch. Bron says relax, you’re THE Logan Paul. Vision will get ’em all, one by one. They fist bump on that, but will The Vision all be turned into believers soon enough?

Both Bulgarian Brute and All Ego have sinister grins on their face, and they celebrate their victory! Not too buddy-buddy, of course. But will these two both have their shot at Penta’s Intercontinental Championship?
Adam Pearce is in the ring.
“When I was a coach in NXT, my favorite, my absolute favorite days, was when a surefire, can’t-miss, blue chip future superstar saw their dreams come true when they got the opportunity to sign one of these to join Raw or SmackDown. Guys, today is one of those days. Let’s take a look.” The fans cheer as we get a highlight reel of the former NXT Women’s North American & WWE Speed Women’s Champion, and Pearce asks we all welcome the newest Raw superstar, Sol Ruca! Sol makes her entrance with a new song, and high-fives fans as she heads down the ramp. Sol joins Pearce in the ring, grabs herself a mic, and Pearce congratulates her.
The fans cheer and Sol smiles as she takes the contract. “Damn. It is going to feel so damn good when I sign this and officially be a part of Monday Night Raw.” But wait, Becky Lynch is interrupting! Pearce is upset as the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion storms her way to the ring. Becky grabs herself a mic to tell Petty Pearce that she’s been looking for him all day! She was told that THIS would be her time for her Celebration of Greatness! Who told her that?! Doesn’t matter, she knows they were a very credible, reliable source. But point is, after her monumental WrestleMania moment, Pearce came out and illegally sanctioned a match with “Iyo Jennetty.”
Which explicitly went against the parameters of her open challenge! But even with that meddling, Becky won! Uncontroversial because she’s the greatest female wrestler of all time, and it’s not just her saying it, other people say it. Sports Illustrated says it, Bleacher Report says it! Sol asks Becky, “Are you done?!” Becky says no, actually, and she’s also a New York Times best seller. Sol says not everything is about Becky. Becky says okay, okay, Sol is very new here, but the sooner she learns this the better. Everything is about her! Well, not this. Everyone knows who Becky is, we know what Becky’s done and accomplished.
But the thing is, Sol didn’t expect to find out that upon meeting Becky, Becky is exactly what everyone says she is. W-Which is? The Man? The history maker? The ground breaker? No. They say Becky is a rude, big-headed B*TCH! And it’s not just Sol saying it, it’s New York Times, Sports Illustrated- Becky says Pearce may be terrible at her job, but is he really letting Sol talk to her like this?! Becky asks if the fans are letting Sol talk to her like this. “YES!” Becky is flabbergasted but the fans cheer Sol on. Becky ask who even is this, and Sol finishes singing her contract. This is Sol Ruca, and if you ever interrupt her again, not only will Sol kick your ass, but she’ll snatch your soul.
Becky takes a swing, Sol dodges, so the punch hits PEARCE! Oops! Becky apologizes but Pearce is furious! Sol smiles as Becky panics, and then she runs up to use the corner! SOUL SNATCHER! The Man is down! Is Sol about to turn the tides and wash away Becky’s big time ego?
The Usos are backstage.
Jackie Redmond catches them as they head for Roman Reigns’ room, and asks them how they’re feeling ahead of the contract signing. Jimmy says it is a big night! Contract signing night between OTC and Samoan Werewolf, and they wouldn’t miss this for nothing. Now, they got a lot of love for Jacob, but Jacob needs to understand how OTC does business, especially when there’s championship gold on the line. Ya feel ’em? Jackie understands, but aren’t they conflicted considering their relationship with both? Jey says nah, Jackie, this right here is family bidness, plain and simple. OTC knows how to handle himself. The Usos are just in case something pops off.
But Jacob, The Usos already told you, Uce! You swimming in deep water now. You bit off more than you can chew. You’re swinging for the fences, though! But they respect that, aight? But Jey is telling you, The Bloodline has been drawn! And at Backlash, you gonna find out who you messing with, Jacob. Good luck, lil’ cousin. YEET. The Usos then step inside Roman’s room. What will the OG Bloodline discuss in regards to this very same family business?
Austin Theory w/ The Vision VS Joe Hendry!
The Vision were a bit… triggered, perhaps, by what The Prestigious Joe Hendry joked about during his concert. But will Hendry feel the Pressure here tonight? Or will Omaha be full of believers after tonight?
Raw returns as Hendry continues his concert where it left off! “He’s one amazing athlete, but he’s a piece of trash! He can shove his trading cards directly up his.. Paul! Paul! Can we fire Logan Paul? Everyone! Paul! Paul! Can we fire Logan Paul?” Logan storms out and shouts that he thought he made it clear that Hendry cannot fire Logan Paul! He is UN-FIREABLE! TKO cannot fire Logan, that’s bad business! Logan IS business! Logan is the heart and soul of the WWE! Hendry says he knows Logan is upset, and he’s glad to see Logan, because this part of the song is the apology. It goes like this: “Paul, Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?”
Logan swears to kill Hendry, but Theory runs up! The bell rings, Hendry fires hands, then LAIRATS Theory up and out of the ring! The fans cheer, Logan tells Theory to handle this! Theory and Logan reset, circle, but the Logan shouts at Hendry. That distraction lets Theory CLOBBER Hendry from behind! The fans boo but Theory CLUBS away on Hendry. Theory then clamps onto Hendry to throw hands right into the side of his head! The fans boo more but Theory CLOBBERS Hendry again! Theory & Logan soak up the heat, then Theory slaps Hendry around. Theory scoops to hit a BACKBREAKER! Theory and Logan fire each other up, but the ref has Logan back off.
Theory stands Hendry up, but Hendry UPPERCUTS and CHOPS and repeat! Hendry whips corner to corner, Theory reverses hard, and Hendry falls to the mat. Theory rains down fists, talks trash, but the fans chant, “Logan Sucks! Logan Sucks!” Logan shouts back that he does not, and Theory goes back to Hendry. Theory drags Hendry up, talks trash, and snap suplexes! “Who sucks now?!” The Vision soaks up more heat, then Theory drags Hendry up. Theory talks more trash, but Hendry suplexes Theory now! The fans cheer while Logan is already upset again. Hendry rises, the fans rally behind him, and Hendry fires haymakers!
Hendry whips Theory to ropes to then LARIAT! Theory flounders from taking the “Commonwealth Clothesline,” and Hendry runs to LARIAT in the corner! Hendry keeps moving, but Theory blows past! Only for Hendry to catch him! FALL AWAY SLAM! And then a kip up, for the… TURN! The fans cheer, but LOGAN ATTACKS!
Winner: Joe Hendry, by disqualification
The fans boo but Logan HAMMERS away on Hendry! Logan hands Hendry the win but he snarls as he tells Hendry, “Nobody can fire me!” Hendry fires off fists! Theory goes after Hendry, the fans boo as The Vision mugs Hendry! They stomp and punch away, but here come the Street Profits! Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins again take the fight to The Vision! SUPERKICK for Logan! Then Ford spins Theory around to ENZIGIRI! Dawkins takes Theory for THE SILENCER! The fans pump it up for The Profits, and Dawkins Electric Chair Lifts Theory! Ford climbs up, but BRON runs in! Bron THROWS Ford out of the ring! Then Bron CLOBBERS Dawkins!
The fans bark as Bron then GERMAN SUPLEXES Dawkins! The Unpredictable Badass turns the tides, but SETH ROLLINS trips him up! The fans cheer as Rollins gets revenge with furious fists! Rollins THROWS Bron into steel steps! Rollins stomps away, then they brawl in the ring! Rollins rains down fists while the fans cheer! Rollins BLASTS Logan & Theory off the apron, then LARIATS Bron down! Omaha is erupting as Rollins is shaking the ropes! Rollins aims, but hold on! Ford FLIES out to take out Logan & Theory! But Bron SPEARS Rollins in the distraction! Bron snarls as he tells Rollins he was that close.
Bron leaves Rollins down again, but he’s still roughed up himself. Will either man survive the Backlash?
Backstage interview with Judgment Day.
Jackie is now with Liv, Dom, JD, Raquel & Roxie, and brings up them sending a message to Finn. But what is the focus moving forward? Liv says yeah, you saw what they did to Finn tonight, and to Vaquer last week. The focus is getting all the gold and crushing anyone who gets in their way. And this season is all about Raquel & Roxie! Tell her, sister! Raquel warns Brie Bella & Paige that their nostalgia tour was cute for a night, but it’s time to get serious. She wants them both to come to their show, because- Bayley & Lyra Valkyria step in, and The Role Model says, “Well, well, well. Wouldya look at here? Can anyone in the Judgment Day get anything done on their own?”
Bayley has known them all for so long and she is just finally getting it. Lyra says they weren’t gonna forget what happened to them last week, either. If they’re such a big happy family, then they won’t be afraid to take them on. Liv mocks them and says families help each other win. Try it sometime, losers. Bye~! Bye~! Judgment Day leaves, but will #BayLyra humble them soon enough? And what of Brie & Paige answering the challenge to show up on “Judgment Day’s show?”
The Ruler’s Open Challenge: Oba Femi VS ???
With champions either too busy, too lazy, or perhaps too afraid to accept a challenge, The Ruler is making HIMSELF into the challenge! Who will answer the call, and who will be thrown from the mountaintop in Omaha?
Oba has the mic to say,” The time has come. The Oba Femi Open Challenge will now begin.” And it’s AKIRA TOZAWA that answers the call! He is accompanied by Maxxine Dupri & Otis, but can The Stamina Monster even survive?
The bell rings and Tozawa steps up to be face to… chest with Oba… Tozawa gest scared, but Otis says that’s okay, HE will step up. Even Oba likes the look of this! The bell rings, and the two tie up. They’re in a deadlock, but Oba SHOVES Otis! That alone is impressive, but Otis comes back to RAM Oba! Oba stays put and the fans continue to cheer. Oba and Otis are forehead to forehead, then Oba RAMS Otis! Otis doesn’t budge and the fans cheer! They start shoving, then Otis rips his shirt away! Oba RAMS Oba, Oba RAMS Otis, but Otis dodges! Only for Oba to UPPERCUT Otis down! Oba then hauls Otis up, for a SUPER SHOTPUT!
The fans are thunderous as Oba is fired up, and he watches Otis slowly get up. Even Oba is wondering if this is possible, but he kicks Otis first. Oba nods and says he knows how to get this done. Oba hoists Otis up the corner, then gets under Otis, for a SUPER SIZED FALL FROM GRACE!! Cover, Oba wins!
Winner: Oba Femi, by pinfall
The first challenge was already a big challenge, but Oba was still up to the challenge! And after seeing that, will anyone even want to step up next week?
Refs check on Rollins backstage.
Rollins insists that despite how he looks, he is fine. Just leave him alone. Rollins sees Hendry & The Profits, and he “thanks” Montez Ford for setting him up for that second spear. Ford says thanks to Rollins’ past antics, nobody, and Ford means NOBODY, trusts Rollins! Oh, wow, nobody? Ford doesn’t trust him, Dawkins doesn’t trust him, Rollins doesn’t even know Hendry but Hendry probably doesn’t trust him. Guess what? Rollins doesn’t even trust himself! But who cares!? They’re in the same fight! They’re all after The Vision, so those fights are gonna come together! But here’s the deal: They stay out of Rollins’ way, he’ll stay out of theirs. Got it?
Rollins storms off, but does he have it all backwards? Shouldn’t they all work together if they want to tear The Vision down?
Adam Pearce mediates a meeting between Iyo Sky and Asuka.
The Raw General Manager knows these two are set to face off at Backlash, so the floor is theirs. Iyo starts by telling “Asuka-san, I have avoided this fight for years. You know this. You are exactly what you say you are: my senpai; my mentor; I looked up to you. I loved you. And despite everything you have done to me, I still have the utmost respect for you. I never wanted to have this fight, and I never wanted it to come to this. But… You have changed.” Asuka says nothing has changed, but Iyo says yes, she has! The Asuka that Iyo looked up to is no longer here! Now, Iyo has no choice but to fight Asuka.
Asuka says Iyo continues her disrespect, so the Iyo that Asuka taught is no longer here, either! This person sitting here, who are you? “I don’t know anyone this disrespectful. Who are you?” Asuka says this is her biggest disappointment! Do you not get how she feels?! Asuka is done with Iyo. At Backlash, Asuka cuts Iyo out of her life for good. Iyo says fine, she understands. Because she IS ready for Asuka! Asuka rolls her eyes, then leans in close, to MIST IYO RIGHT IN THE FACE!! Pearce is furious, has Asuka get out of here, and shouts for a doctor! The Empress of Tomorrow shows no remorse, but will The Genius show no mercy at Backlash?
Backstage interview with El Grande Americano Original and…?
Jackie is with Chad G- er, uh, the Original EGA and The Creed Brothers, who are now “Los Americanos Hermanos,” The American Brothers… After that surprise attack on the other El Grande Americano at AAA during the Mask VS Mask contract signing, how are they feeling going into this trios match? Well, thankfully, the No Physicality Agreement was for Mexico. That means here in Middle America, all bets are off! Now, the boys saw how they great EGA Original in AAA, it’s ridiculous! So they decided to do the honorable thing and help him out. They take inspiration from a close personal friend of his, Chad Gable, still sidelined with injury.

Roman Reigns heads to the ring!
Now that there is no one to stand in his way, The OTC, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, walks out on stage and raises his finger to the sky. The pyro goes off, and it is time for the title fight contract signing. But will things stay civil in this family civil war? We’ll find out, after the break.
Raw returns as Roman gets his second round of pyro, then joins Pearce in the ring. Roman makes sure to sit at the head of the table, then Pearce introduces the challenger, Jacob Fatu! The fans cheer the Samoan Werewolf as he makes his entrance. Pearce says we all know how this works: two signatures on the contract makes this match official. The fans sing for “Roman, Roman Reigns~!” while he stares down with Jacob. Roman picks up his mic first to say, “Nah, Pearce, you know how this works. Omaha, Nebraska…! ACKNOWLEDGE ME.” The fans cheer and chant “O T C! O T C!” Roman asks if Jacob hears all that.
Roman says that’s not just love, but the sound of respect! The fans cheer that, and Roman says you don’t think he knows where Jacob comes from? That he wasn’t watching from afar? That respect wasn’t earned just from hanging out. Jacob was grinding for 12 years, but Roman was here for OVER 12 years! The fans cheer again, and Roman tells Jacob that Roman was the one in this company, his foot holding the door open for Solo Sikoa. Solo brought Fatu in? Well guess what? Roman brought Solo in. Therefore, Roman brought Fatu in. And Roman will be damned if there is not respect to be had in this business for him!
The fans again cheer for “O T C! O T C!” and Roman says this is about respect. There has to be a code, there has to be an honor system. They can’t just run roughshod around here, bogarding everything for the family. No, there has to be a system of conduct that they can hang their hats on, understand? The Tongan Death Grip… Jacob disrespects Roman with something that he saves for desperate measures. Where does Jacob think they are? In some bar at 3AM, surrounded 8v1? THAT is when you bust out the Tongan Death Grip, THAT is when you snatch someone’s throat! You don’t do that to family! You don’t do that to your own. You don’t do that to your Tribal Chief!
The fans cheer again, but Fatu says, “Hold on, what?! Tribal Chief? Hey. That’s where you got it all wrong, you don’t understand. Yes, I am desperate. Yes, it feels like it’s just me against the world. Yes, my back is against the wall. So I have no other choice but to take you out, take this title, and everything that comes with it!” The fans are torn on that, but Fatu says to keep it 100, then he’ll put a choke hold on this game, and he’ll squeeze out every dollar and cent, just the way this company been doing their family for decades! So when Fatu’s talking all gas, no brakes with it, that doesn’t mean slowing down, it means moving forward and never going back to where he came from.
So yes, Roman, Fatu is desperate. Desperate enough to do anything for his household, even if he gotta run through his own blood! Roman says this is what he’s talking about! Fatu’s household?! Let’s get this out the way. Roman signs his part, the fans cheer, and then Roman pushes the contract to Fatu. Fatu is talking about his household, but Roman says he’s been up here over a decade for MULTIPLE households! Fatu is worried about seven kids, but Roman’s worried about 170 kids! Fatu is worried about higher education, but Roman is worried about generation after generation! Because Roman is the one that can do that! Proof of concept! The respect! WWE does business with HIM!
Roman already told everyone a long time ago, this is ALL HIS! This is HIS ring! And yes, in their family, they’re equals, of the same blood. But in this ring, Jacob, you’re beneath him! JACOB SNATCHES ROMAN! Roman CLAWS Fatu’s face, THROWS him into buckles, then THROWS an armchair at him! The fans fire up but Pearce wants Roman to calm down. Roman grabs the belt, but Fatu GRABS ROMAN’S THROAT! Roman HAMMERS Fatu down, climbs up in the corner, and rains down more fists! The fans count along, Roman goes all the way to TEN! But the TONGAN DEATH GRIP still finds him!!
Roman hurries to get loose, SUPERMAN- DEATH GRIP!! DEATH GRIP!! Pearce hurries in there, Roman grabs at Pearce out of desperation, but Fatu drags him around, CHOKE SLAM on the table!! The table didn’t break, but Roman is still down and out. Fatu signs his part, and he says they gonna do this! It is official, and as it looks, Fatu has the advantage! Will nothing stop the Samoan Werewolf from sinking his teeth deep into Roman? Or can Roman find a way to survive?
My Thoughts:
A great Raw here as the go-home to Backlash, but with some great stuff that also had nothing to do with Backlash. Very good promos from Judgment Day, and I just knew Liv was gonna confront Roxie about Finn sneaking in. Her mentioning watching it back on Netflix was also a good detail, as they can reference it later if Roxie really does end up helping Finn as the mole. They were acting like enemies cuz they didn’t want the secret being exposed by cameras. But in the end, Judgment Day of course made sure Finn lost, but there might be hope for allies if Bayley & Lyra are gonna get in Judgment Day’s way of the women’s tag titles. Mixed Six Tag maybe?
Great 2v2 tag of Penta & Evans VS Rusev & Ethan, and the Heels winning out makes sense given Penta is a Face champion. Rusev will likely be betrayed by Ethan so that Ethan gets the title shot, only for Penta to win out. Great first match for the Oba Femi Open Challenge, Oba continues to build his power on main roster by just showing his physical power in throwing Otis. Very good promo from Sol and Becky, that’s clearly Becky’s first title defense right there, but I would think Becky cheats to win. Though, I can’t really see what Sol could do after she loses so maybe Sol should win to humble Becky? Plus, they can just have a rematch after.
Great stuff with all the Americanos, especially with how convoluted it is to cover up the obvious identities of everyone. AAA gives the rest of the story where Gable Americano has escalated things to where even Kaiser Americano’s girlfriend is banned from AAA if Kaiser loses his mask, and that’s pretty wild. But probably also all the more reason we’re about to get Chad Gable back once he’s exposed. Great stuff with The Vision story, such as Rollins interacting with Roman only to get attacked by Bron Breakker. Also, that means Roman didn’t even care that Bron ran past him to go after Rollins, and that’s hilarious.
Hendry VS Theory ending in disqualification was fine, it works for Heels to be sore losers and such. Profits of course made the save, and while Rollins said they’d stay separate, I really do think there’s gonna be some kind of team up before this is over. Obviously, Hendry & Profits VS Vision can happen as a Six Man, and at the very least, they try to help Rollins against Bron when Logan & Theory try to cheat that match. And very good stuff in the story of Roman VS Jacob. Good promo from Usos, very good contract signing promos, especially with Roman referencing some of the real-life stories about Haku fighting off jackasses in bars. Jacob standing tall would suggest he loses, but there’s also SmackDown as a go-home to see if the tides turn at the last minute.
My Score: 8.9/10
