PLAY BY PLAY
Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter head to the ring!
The NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions are set to face the good ol’ boys from the US, but they’re starting off the night on the mic. It is apparent that Smith has a brace on his leg, so there might be some explaining to do. Fans chant, “You Deserve It!” in reference to Smith & Carter finally winning the titles, but Smith wants everyone to listen for a moment. He appreciates and loves every single one of the fans here, and thinking back, a few years ago, he was at the lowest point of his career. He couldn’t buy a win, and sometimes he didn’t even make the card. But the worst thing was, he beat himself up bad over it, thinking that no one comes to the shows to watch Ashton Smith wrestle.
But that changed when Oliver Carter stepped in and became Smith’s tag team partner. As soon as that happened, there was a light at the end of the tunnel and Smith could entertain with a smile on his face. Ever since Smith was a kid, he wanted to be a WWE champion. He watched the ending to their match back a hundred times, and he always sees the exact same thing: the reaction of the fans. The energy and the love they threw to him and Carter. Fans chant, “Always Forward!” Smith says this love and energy makes the struggle worth it. Smith is so proud to be here today and say “We did it! We are your NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions!”
Fans cheer, but Smith has to say that at the same, all that makes what he has to say next twice as hard. In that match, he suffered a serious knee injury, rupturing his MCL. For that reason, Smith & Carter must now vacate the NXT UK Tag Team Championships. Smith & Carter were looking forward to doing nothing more than to defend these titles against Briggs & Jensen. But now they are letting everyone down. Smith has been dreading getting in this ring, looking Carter in the eye, and letting him down. Carter says no no no, let’s get it straight. Smith hasn’t let anyone down, and especially not Carter.
Their main goal was always to become champions, and they said they’d do anything to do that! Three years ago, Carter walked up to Smith and they created a bond. They became friends, brothers, and champions! Carter loves Smith, and wants him to know that anything he does or decides, Carter will always have his back! Smith thanks Carter for that, but the fact is, Smith now needs time to heal. But just remember, Carter is the Hottest Superstar Under the Sun, the Freshest Flavor on the Brand, and Smith can’t wait for us all to see how great Carter can be. Smith will support Carter not just as his number one fan, but as a brother.
And when the time is right, Smith will return with a fire in his belly bigger than anyone has ever seen before! No one can tell Smith he can’t achieve his dream twice! So that being said, they introduce the Assistant General Manager, Sid Scala. Sid walks out, and Sid speaks on behalf of himself and Johnny Saint. They have seen the medical reports, and the circumstances are indeed unfortunate. This brand needs tag team champions, so with heavy hearts, the tag titles are given to Sid. Smith tells Sid that before that, Smith wants Sid to do them one more favor: say it one more time.
Sid nods and says, “NXT UK Universe, please sure you appreciation for the tag team champions, Oliver Carter & Ashton Smith!” Fans cheer and chant, “Still Our Champions!” Sid takes the belts back from Smith & Carter, and Smith & Carter head out. When and where will we see Smith make his return? And as for the titles, they are vacant. Sid and Saint have been in meeting- Wait, here comes Die Familie! Teoman, Rohan Raja & Charlie Dempsey are here, and Raja says they never lost that Triple Threat. So therefore, those titles should be theirs! Sid can declare Die Familie as the NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions!
Fans chant “NO! NO! NO!” and Sid tells them that while he understands their point of view, they’re not the only team hungry for titles. And speaking of, here come Briggs & Jensen! They were supposed to have a title match, but they’re not alone! Here comes Mark Andrews & Wild Boar in a new formation of South Wales Subculture! And not only them, but Dave Mastiff & Jack Starz! Sid then announces that in tonight’s new main event, we will see Die Familie VS Briggs & Jensen VS Andrews & Boar VS Starz & Mastiff in a FATAL 4 WAY ELIMINATION TAG to crown NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions! Fans are fired up, but who of these four become the ones with the gold?
Sarray visits Meiko Satomura’s dressing room.
She knocks on the door then enters, and Meiko is very happy to see Sarray. Meiko officially welcomes Sarray and Sarray thanks her. Meiko wishes Sarray good luck and Sarray says she’ll do her best. Meiko then tells Emilia McKenzie that Sarray isn’t the only visitor. Next week, Millie takes on Fallon Henley. Meiko hopes to see Emilia’s fighting spirit. Emilia nods, and takes in a deep breath. Can #SuplexMillie make her mentor proud against the Cowgirl?
NXT UK Media catches up with Sha Samuels.
What brings him by BT Sports Studio this week? Well, he’s here to make some money and take some bets! A bookie’s work is never- But then Sha spots Sid and asks him what’s up with last week. Wolfgang used a scarf against Sha! Scarves are foreign objects. That match should be stricken from the record. Better yet, reverse the decision, Sha & Dar win by disqualification. Sid says no, that match stands. Well, then give Sha a 1v1 match with Wolfgang. That’s fine. Yeah, cuz if Wolfgang was here right now, Sha would embarrass him! Make him look a right mug, put him in the Butcher’s Hook, and make him squeal like a pig!
Wolfgang’s behind Sha, isn’t he? Yep. Sha looks over and puts Sid between him and Wolfgang. Wolfgang heard what Sha said, so he wants to make things interesting. With money, that is. Sha says Sid can make the match, Sha will embarrass him! Gallus is no more and Kemp’s back in America! This will be 1v1! Wolfgang lets Sha talk and talk, only digging the hole deeper. Will Sha end up in the red against the Last King of Scotland?
Isla Dawn VS Myla Grace!
The Wicked Witch of NXT UK returns after her loss to Meiko Satomura in her own World of Darkness match. Will Isla take out her anger on Grace here tonight? Or will Grace help Dawn see the light?
The bell rings and fans rally for Grace as she circles with Dawn. They approach, Dawn pie faces Grace but Grace ties up with her. Dawn throws Grace down hard, then grins at her. Grace gets up, gets around, but Dawn fights the lift. Grace trips Dawn, runs and hops on for a rolling ghost pin! TWO, and Dawn slips around Grace to backslide! TWO, Grace has a sunset flip! TWO, and Grace slips around to crucifix. Dawn stays up, throws Grace off, but Grace slides under while getting a pump handle! Grace then rolls to trip Dawn, and she basement dropkicks! Dawn bails out and is flustered while fans fire up for Grace!
Grace goes up the ropes but Dawn HOTSHOTS her! Fans boo but Dawn gets in to dropkick Grace down! Dawn kicks Grace around, drags her up by her pigtails, then puts her in a corner.

Dawn kicks Grace’s leg out, then runs in to METEORA Grace into buckles! Cover, TWO! Grace is still in this but Dawn snarls as she sits her up. Dawn clamps on a chinlock and Grace endures, but the fans rally up. Dawn shifts into a chicken wing, then a motorcycle stretch!

NXT UK has an update on Tyler Bate.
After the selfish betrayal of Trent Seven and the following attack, Tyler Bate needs time to come to terms with all this, and is taking a leave of absence from NXT UK. When and where will the Big Strong Boy be back again?
Kenny Williams is making another conspiracy web.
“The Masked Bozo. Someone’s messing with me!” Tiger Turan has been showing up around him, and Kenny claims it is to harass him. Kenny calls Tiger a coward. The Scum of the Earth will find out who Tiger Turan really is, and he will rip them limb from limb! But can Kenny Cockroach make the hunter become the hunted? Or is he falling right into Tiger Turan’s trap?
NXT UK Media catches up with Sid Scala.
How is he feeling about the new batch of visitors to NXT UK? Sid says it certainly will be a challenge, but- Noam Dar interrupts, carrying in his Heritage Cup trophy. Dar says he’s not here for trouble. In fact, he’s been thinking, and is a little concerned. “As your longest reigning Heritage Cup Champion, and simply the best to ever do it, I’ve become a victim of my own success. Anyone you’ve put in front of me, I’ve knocked down. I’ve cleaned out the entire division. There’s nobody left, and it makes me think, ‘What’s next? What’s next for me?’ And I’ve had an epiphany.” Like all the greats, Dar needs has to retire on top. He’ll put this on the mantle piece, ride off into the sunset-
Sid wants to stop Dar there but Dar says he knows what Sid is thinking and it is a fantastic idea. One final match! One more round! Picture this: A stadium filled with thousands and thousands of Supernova 11 fans; fireworks, confetti, and cake; and can you hear that? Fans chanting, “Please don’t go! Please don’t go!” Sid rolls his eyes, and Dar tells him to get on that. And of course, because it’ll be such a historic match, double pay please. Thank you, buh-bye. Dar heads out and Sid sighs. All the pomp and circumstance aside, will Dar get a challenger worthy of the Heritage Cup?
Sarray VS Nina Samuels!
The Warrior of the Sun is starting her time in NXT UK, and it seems the Leading Lady has elected herself the “welcoming committee.” Will Nina be able to shine in the spotlight? Or will she get burned like she did “welcoming” Ivy Nile?
The bell rings and the two rush in. Sarray roll Nina up, TWO, but then has a leg for a HALF CRAB! Fans rally, but Nina scrambles to the ROPEBREAK! Sarray lets off and Nina uses the ropes as a defense. Fans rally for Sarray as Nina comes back. Nina rushes in but Sarray blocks the clothesline to wrench and wristlock. Nina spins, but Sarray wrenches again! Fans rally, Nina cartwheels and arm-drags, but Sarray holds on! Fans cheer, Nina pulls hair and wrenches back. Nina yanks on the arm, but Sarray rolls, kips up and arm-drags Nina away! Then she SHOTGUNS Nina down! Fans fire up with Sarray as she runs, and CROSSBODIES!
But Nina catches Sarray for a BACKBREAKER! Nina stomps Sarray, fans duel, and Nina brings Sarray up to bump off buckles. Nina stomps a mudhole into Sarray but lets off as the ref counts. Nina then digs her boot into Sarray! The ref counts again, Nina lets off, and Sarray kicks back from below! Nina CLUBS Sarray, then drags her up to whip her corner to corner hard! Sarray drops to her knees but Nina brings her up to whip hard the other way! Sarray writhes and fans duel. Nina CHOKES Sarray on ropes, then makes her smile with fishhooks!

Fans fire up and Sarray brings Nina around. Sarray gets Nina up, but her back holds her back! Nina CLUBS Sarray, lifts Sarray and RAMS her into the corner! Nina then hoists Sarray up top, ROCKS her with a forearm, then climbs up top. Sarray fires forearms back and HEADBUTTS Nina down! Nina wobbles, Sarray BOOTS her! Sarray then leaps, DOUBLE STOMP! Fans fire up with Sarray as Nina is on the ropes! Sarray kicks Nina, then runs side to side, DROPKICK OF THE SUN! Sarray isn’t done there, she gets Nina up for the SOLAR EXPLODER! Cover, Sarray wins!
Winner: Sarray, by pinfall
Another good “welcome” from Nina and another great win for the visitor! Sarray is shining bright, will she get a chance to challenge the Final Boss before her visit is over?
Blair Davenport speaks.
“This is Blair Davenport. I’m putting all of you on notice. Scared, Meiko? You should be. You have put me in a position where I have to show how cold-blooded I can be. I am the rightful heir to the NXT UK Women’s Championship. I am going to make it perfectly clear that Blair Davenport is back!” and she plans to do that, next week! Who will be the first to #BewareTheHeir?
NXT UK Media meets Sarray backstage.
They congratulate her on her first win in NXT UK. But then Xia Brookside & Eliza Alexander walk over, pretending to be excited for Sarray’s NXT UK arrival. They ask her a question, though. What the hecc is that? Oh, don’t touch the medallion, Eliza. You might turn into a Power Ranger or something, jumping around and glowing all over the place! But on a serious note, this is their brand, Sarray can’t just come here and take opportunities away from them. Got that? It is about time someone showed Sarray just whose division this is. Eliza steps closer, but in steps Meiko! Xia & Eliza back off and say everything is fine. Meiko commends Sarray on her win and helps her to the locker room. Will Meiko remind Xia & Eliza who really runs NXT UK?
Vacant NXT UK Tag Team Championships Fatal 4 Way Elimination Match: Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen VS Die Familie VS Mark Andrews & Wild Boar VS Dave Mastiff & Jack Starz!
All four teams are already in the ring for this historic moment in NXT UK!

The introductions for all four teams are made, the belts are raised, and only ONE team will remain to put their names in the history books!
Per this Fatal 4, only team teams are legal at any time. Starz and Andrews start for their teams, with Die Familie and the American visitors watching on the sidelines.

Teoman wants to reach for Raja but Mastiff is in his way, so Teoman tags out to Briggs! So long as Teoman got away, he doesn’t care who is in.

But Mastiff and Briggs just ROCK them with beefy haymakers! Mastiff tosses Raja and Briggs tosses Teoman, and then go back to stare down with each other.

Winners: Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen, by pinfall (NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions)
Incredible! The new NXT UK Tag Team Champions are the good ol’ boys from America! Briggs & Jensen have gold, and Fallon Henley is here to celebrate with them! Will Briggs & Jensen prove that country boys can survive?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of NXT UK, especially in light of the unfortunate injury to Ashton Smith. Hopefully Smith isn’t gone too long, but he had a great promo as he says “see you later,” and he’ll have a great return that fans will explode for. And as WWE has proven, they can come up with amazing stuff when they need to improvise and adapt. The Fatal 4 Way main event we got was awesome stuff, and with three Face teams and one Heel team, I really expected Die Familie to win this match. But instead, the match was crafted in such a way that the UK fans actually loved seeing the American guys win! Briggs & Brooks had the best match of their NXT careers, and it is great for them to be the champions. They can probably just make their whole time in NXT UK about defending these belts, and that’d be awesome.
Great promos from Sha and Wolfgang to set up their match, and from Dar to basically set up anyone taking him on for the Heritage Cup. But a shame that they didn’t do this in time for Damon Kemp to have his shot. He’s apparently back in the US full time right now, so no Dar VS Kemp for the cup. Who knows who Sid sets up for Dar here, but I wonder if there’s a US visitor they haven’t mentioned. If Dempsey were a Face, I’d have made it him and have Dempsey win so at least Die Familie has something. Then it was a nice detail to let us know that Tyler Bate is on “sabbatical” after what Trent Seven did to him, physically and emotionally.
Another good vignette for Blair Davenport but it wasn’t really any different from last week. Blair is definitely going to go on a win streak from her return until she’s a contender again. Kenny’s newest vignette to call out Tiger Turan was well-made, but again didn’t add that much to this story. Kenny VS Tiger is going to be a great match, though, and whether Kenny wins or loses, he has to unmask “The Masked Bozo” to expose him as Amir Jordan, He just has to. Even if there’s a loophole that says Tiger Turan isn’t Amir Jordan, it has to be Amir under the mask. Then that can be a grudge match, maybe some form of No Disqualification match where Tiger/Amir gets his revenge.
We got good stuff out of the Women’s Division, especially with how we got two women’s matches here. Dawn VS Grace was a good return for Dawn and of course Dawn wins. But I have a feeling Dawn runs into Blair and loses as Blair makes her way up the ranks. Then we got a very good match from Nina VS Sarray, probably one of Nina’s better matches. Sarray of course gets the win, but I like the interactions she has with Meiko in this episode. The first on in Meiko’s room gave the feeling that Meiko is going to favor Sarray over her protégé, Millie, and that could make Millie jealous. Meiko also putting more pressure on Millie could add to that.
Then the backstage interaction, I sense Meiko & Sarray VS Xia & Eliza. Meiko & Sarray will win, and then Sarray will ask for a title shot and Meiko will oblige, and we’ll get an awesome match between two great Joshi wrestlers.
My Scores: 8.6/10

#ZaRuca, Lola Vice & Kelani Jordan talk backstage.
They’re all excited by the news of Sol Ruca & Zaria going to Evolution to be part of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal 4 Way. Sol says she will handle Izzi Dame on Saturday to retain her NXT Women’s North American Championship, and then ZaRuca will get that tag gold! Lainey Reid walks in and asks if Sol will even have anything left for Sunday. If not for her friend, Zaria, Sol might not even have lost to Izzi.

Kelani Jordan says Lainey is the last one to talk about getting into someone else’s business. And really, she’s been doing that a lot lately.

Sol says she and Zaria are just going to go, they have to worry about their matches this weekend. Good luck to any and all who are in the Evolution Battle Royal.

Lainey says fine, and heads out. But will the Southern Belle get her bell rung when she takes on the Standout?
Jordynne Grace works out in the gym.
And while she’s watching her phone count down for her planking, Blake Monroe calls! Grace sits up to answer, and she asks where Blake even is, they’re supposed to be training. Blake says oh, she’ll take a guess and say Grace is in the gym, in a black sports bra, black leggings, and even trainers. Uh, yeah… But wait, where is Blake then? She sent her driver, and it is time for a Glamour Workout. Um, Grace can’t lift an SUV. No, no, the driver is there to pick Grace up. They’ll do nails, hair, maybe even a massage! Grace will learn what she has been missing! And Atlanta won’t know what hit them when The Glamournauts-
Grace stops Blake there. She’ll come if she stops saying what she’s saying. Blake says JG is so funny. See you soon~! The phone call ends, Grace hops in the SUV, and it takes her to a boutique! Grace already doesn’t like the look of it, but will this “workout” work out for them?

Dark State speaks.
Dion Lennox says, “Ey, y’all thought ‘Ain’t nobody safe’ was just a catchphrase? Man, hell naw! That’s what we live by! Any place, any time, and that includes TNA! Matt Cardona found out real quick what happens when them lights go out!” Saquon Shugar says, “Yeah, we scheming on TNA, but that ain’t the only thing we be scheming on. We got our hands in erry cookie jar. So TNA, we gonna see y’all real soon. But don’t think it’s sweet over here on this side either.” Cutler James says, “We should take a real close look at that tag title match tonight. Yeah, I just don’t hope Hank ‘n’ Tank are feeling a little better after that ‘mysterious attack’ the other week.”
Osiris Griffin says, “Man, these people think they know everything, don’t they, huh, Cutty? I mean, they say the eyes don’t lie, right? I mean, that may be so. But don’t think for a second they can’t be lied to. Seeing is believing, but the truth? Well, that’s just an illusion.” Dion says everybody better keep their head on a swivel! No one knows when, where, or how Dark State is gonna strike. But what everyone does know is that when Dark State strikes, ain’t nobody safe. Then just who will end up their next victims?
Yoshiki Inamura & Josh Briggs are here!
The NEW #1 Contender to the NXT Championship and his best pal are here, both excited for what’s coming this Saturday at Great American Bash. Even Inamura’s peers over at Pro-Wrestling NOAH are excited, having put their support behind him. Inamura grabs a mic, and here comes Oba Femi! The Ruler is ready to have a final face-to-face with Inamura before their match. Inamura starts by saying Oba wanted to see if Inamura was worthy, if he had grit. Inamura beat Jasper Troy just like he beat Trick Williams. Oba will be Inamura’s greatest challenge! But Inamura is ready! The fans applaud that!
Inamura says the people support him, Briggs supports him, his friends and family in Japan support him. And now, Inamura must make them all proud! The fans cheer, and Inamura says at the Great American Bash, he will fight with honor. And Inamura will become the NEW NXT Champion! The fans cheer that, too! Oba grins and says, “Oh no, oh no…! At least you have the support of the fans and your family and your friends, like Josh. So maybe they will be the ones to pick up the pieces when I beat you. Because you talk about honor, fighting for honor. Well, this Saturday, why don’t you ask yourself, can you lose with honor?
“Because when it is all said and done, my friend, the truth will prevail: You are not worthy of taking this title from me.” The fans cheer, but now Briggs speaks up? “Inamura is being polite, but brother, did you see what he did to Jasper Troy last week? C’mon! Let’s be real here! He beat him easier than Oba did! He’s gonna do the same exact thing that he did to Jasper to The Ruler~!” The fans boo, but Briggs says what Inamura is too honorable to say is… At The Great American Bash, Inamura’s gonna beat Oba’s ass! Look, look, Inamura is a man of honor, but brother, Briggs is not. He is not done talking, either!
Briggs is not a man of honor but of mayhem, and he promises to do everything in his power to make sure his friend leaves as NXT Champion, because this is their only chance! Oba tells Briggs this is not his fight. Yoshiki should tell his friend to get out of Oba’s face before he breaks Briggs’. Inamura does talk Briggs down, but then Briggs pushes past to throw hands with Oba! The fans fire up, Oba ROCKS Briggs, ROCKS Inamura, but Briggs jumps back in! The hands keep going, and then Oba LARIATS Briggs up and out! Inamura ROCKS Oba! And scoops him for a SLAM! The refs rush out here but Inamura stands down.
The fans want to “Let Them Fight! Let Them Fight!” but Inamura gives way to his honorable nature. Inamura is willing to wait for Saturday, but will he be the one to dethrone The Ruler?
The “Glamour Workout” continues.
Grace is not feeling this spa-boutique stuff, so she’s gonna just Uber back to the Performance Center. No, no, hold on, “Muscle Muffin.” Blake knows Grace trains her body all the time. It is time to treat her! And in a way, this is training: recovery, self-care, and glamour. Just please try. Grace gives in, and montage time! Blake says time for ropes and slippers, Grace says no, but she again gives in. Well, she does make one adjustment: she RIPS the sleeves away! Way to make it your own! Hopefully that doesn’t cost extra… They get manicures, massages, but the masseuse isn’t even strong enough for Grace to feel it through all those muscles.
Blake says Grace is like a stray dog in a Dior store. Grace has to understand muscles and “me time” can coexist. Now, face back in the hole. They also get make-up down, and that much Grace enjoys. They also soak their feet. Grace says she still doesn’t feel this is her vibe. Blake says it is! Grace has to see that her self-esteem is something she can lift. And she has to lift it up high to be a champion. They’ve gotta get that title off Jacy Jayne one way or another. Grace sighs, and admits she’s been chasing the title for awhile. And she admits, she likes the pampering. See? One day with The Glamour, and Grace looks more like a champ!
Grace says Blake isn’t so bad herself. But isn’t this kinda what she always looks like? Sure, but she’s also having fun. Okay, okay, first: They beat Fatal Influence at Great American Bash. Second: Grace beats Jacy at Evolution. And… thanks for this. Grace relaxes and Blake is happy to have helped. Will this spa day be just the thing to energize the Juggernaut into steamrolling the Toxic Rockstar?
Lainey Reid VS Kelani Jordan!
The Southern Belle may be the new girl, but her attitude has already skyrocketed up the ranks past The Standout’s new edge. Will Lainey just keep on adding to her ego with another win? Or will she learn that no one does it like Lani?

PLAY BY PLAY
Seth Rollins is here!
Providence, Rhode Island fires up as the Visionary leads the way for Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed. They sing along with the song, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~! BURN IT DOWN~!” and Mr. Money in the Bank smiles as they reach ringside. The four step into the ring, fans bark it up for Bron, then the singing continues, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” Rollins takes a bow as the song wraps, and the barking returns for a moment before Providence sings on their own, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” Heyman brings a mic to Rollins, but Bron snatches it? The fans bark but Rollins and Heyman are rather surprised by this move.
Bron says, “I am standing here in this ring because Seth Rollins and the Wise Man, Paul Heyman, have a vision for this business that has me as the face of the WWE for the next two decades.” Rollins and Heyman talk in the background, neither of them knew Bron would make this move. Bron continues by saying, “I also have a vision of my own for a WWE, and that is a WWE without Sami Zayn.” The fans boo but Bron says he does not like Sami, he doesn’t like Sami’s face or his stupid beard, or his crappy music! He doesn’t like the fans sing along when Sami makes his entrance! The fans chant for Sami and Bron gets frustrated.
Rollins and Heyman let Bron continue as he says, “For the life of me, I will never understand why you guys cheer for someone that has the athletic ability of a dead fish! Someone that’s never played sports! Someone that doesn’t go to the gym! Someone that’s hanging on to anything for dear life to get five more years, so he can squeeze the last little bit of water outta the rag.” Heyman facepalms here but Bron says Sami has an expiration date, and he puts a stamp on it tonight. Bron promises Sami that if Sami comes walking down this ramp, Bron will maul Sami’s head off, and Sami will be looking up at the lights by the end of it.
Heyman politely asks for the mic back, Bron hands it over, but the fans cheer on Sami. Heyman hands the mic to Rollins, and Rollins asks if Bron is good. Bron nods and Rollins laughs. Rollins then looks to Bronson, and decides to give him a moment with the mic. The fans sing but Bronson says simmer down. “Bron is a tough act to follow, but so am I. I am the man that hit Seth with six Tsunamis. Hurting him so badly that it built a respect between you and I. So much so that Seth brought me into this group, brought me into his vision. And with that vision, I will get the respect that I deserve!” The fans boo that.
Bronson warns Jey Uso, “Yeet Man, you do not respect me.” The fans “YEET!” but Bronson says tonight, Bronson will Tsunami the respect into Jey! Just like he did Seth Freakin’ Rollins! The fans boo again, but Bronson hands the mic back to Rollins. The fans rally for CM Punk and Jey Uso. Rollins decides Heyman can speak, so the mic is handed to the Wise Man. Heyman says, “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. Tonight, the empire strikes back! Y’know what? Scratch that, hold that up on YouTube later, that’s a blooper. Tonight, the empire strikes first! First on our list, Sami Zayn! And I’m not gonna try and follow that promo.
“If Sami hasn’t hightailed it back to Montreal by now, Sami, it’s your ass, not mine. Tonight, Bronson Reed VS Jey Uso. I have love for my former Bloodline member, Jey Uso. But let’s be honest here, Roman Reigns doesn’t have the balls to come back and step up against us!” The fans chant for “O T C! O T C!” Heyman says the OTC is MIA, and after tonight, Jey Uso will be MIA all thanks to the master of the Tsunami, Bronson Reed! “And now here’s the big news, in case you haven’t heard.
Tonight, Seth Freakin’ Rollins, the biggest box office attraction in this entire industry, the man who pinned Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania, and it’s not the first time he’s done that, either… Tonight, Seth Rollins will don the tights against Penta! Hey, mi bueno migo.” Heyman tells Penta in Espanol that he’s got nothing! Now, Heyman is neither young enough nor hip enough nor bad enough nor bougie enough to understand all the stupid hand signs Penta does. But by the time Penta gets stomped into the mat tonight, Penta will be in no shape to do his hand signs ever again. The fans boo that, but Heyman says, “And that’s not a prediction… That’s a spoiler!”
Rollins is once again handed the mic, the fans chant for CM Punk even louder than before, but Rollins says, “Well, boys, you covered everything. So I guess there’s only one thing left to say: Providence, welcome to Monday Night Rollins!” Mic drop from The Visionary, but will he and his behemoths dominate the card? Or can Sami, Jey & Penta survive what’s coming?
Judgment Day is in the clubhouse.
Finn Balor shines up all five championship belts, from the WWE World Tag Team Championships to the Women’s Tag Team Championships, to even Dominik’s Intercontinental Championship. JD is winning darts, Dom says it’s tied at best, but Raquel Rodriguez walks in and asks everyone, “What the hell is that?” We look over and see a shrine to Liv Morgan? Roxie says she did it for Dom. Uh, she’s alive, though! She’s just rehabbing, she’ll be back real soon. Finn isn’t so sure. He hurt his shoulder and it took eight months! And he’s tough! At least it’s a nice picture. Yeah, well, it’ll be a better picture if Raquel & Roxie retain the titles at Evolution.
And maybe, if some chiquita does what she promised in beating Kairi Sane. Roxie says she’s got it, partner! Too soon… Raquel still blows a kiss and gives a salute to Liv’s pic before heading out with Roxie. JD asks Finn what’s down the line for them, but Finn hasn’t heard anything from Adam Pearce. Well, the office is down the hall, they should go knock on the door and see what’s rattlin’ around in that bald head. Finn likes JD being proactive. They’ll go handle business. They fist bump Dom, and Dom says thanks for the nice Get Well Soon cake. JD and Finn ask the other, “Was that you?” Nope. So then who did buy the cake?
Wait, it says, “Get Well Soon, Dom! From AJ!” Styles got this cake for Dom!? When was he in here?! HE’S STILL HERE! Styles peeks out from behind the road case and says he’s watching Dom! Dom reminds Styles of the doctor’s note, but then Styles is gone! The Phenomenal One shows off some phenomenal ninja skills, will he pounce the moment Dom is cleared?
Roxanne Perez w/ Raquel Rodriguez VS Kairi Sane!
Well, just as the Prodigy promised, she looks to pay the Pirate Princess back for taking down Liv Morgan. Will Roxie & Raquel be rolling into Atlanta? Or will Kairi sink their ship and hunt down their gold?
Raw returns after Roxie & Raquel make their entrance. The bell rings, Kairi and Roxie circle, then tie up. Roxie fires furious forearms and CLUBS away on Kairi! Roxie throws Kairi down, rains down more fists, then drags Kairi up. Roxie bumps Kairi off buckles, Raquel says this is what Kairi gets! Roxie SCRAPES Kairi’s face off ropes, bumps her off buckles, then brings her around. Kairi blocks the buckle bump to give a buckle bump! Roxie ducks the uraken and headlocks. Kairi fires body shots, powers up and out, but Roxie THROWS Kairi down by her hair! Roxie kicks dirt, then runs, but Kairi drops down and sunset flips! Roxie sits on it, TWO!
Roxie headlocks again, Kairi powers up and fires body shots. The fans rally, Kairi powers out, but Roxie avoids the uraken again! Roxie goes to the apron, but Kairi is on her! Roxie HOTSHOTS Kairi and Kairi goes to a corner. Roxie runs up, but Kairi slips outside! Then she slides under, sunset flips, TWO! Roxie has the cover, TWO! Kairi trips Roxie, jackknife bridges, TWO! Roxie has an arm, steps through, LA MAGISTROL, then BRIDGE! TWO!! Kairi escapes, she has Roxie in a short arm scissor! ROPEBREAK! Kairi lets go, but Roxie SLAPS her! The fans are torn as Roxie talks trash. She has Kairi on ropes, whips her, but Kairi ducks ‘n’ dodges!
Kairi rolls over the dropdown, then bypasses to run and go up, RANA! Roxie tumbles, Kairi URAKENS! The Cutlass cuts Roxie down and she goes to ropes. Kairi runs, SLIDING D!

Raquel distracts, Roxie THROWS Kairi down! The fans boo but Roxie drags Kairi around. Roxie drags Kairi through the corner, and she STOMPS the arm!

Raw returns and the fans rally up while both women are down. Roxie rises, runs up, but Kairi dodges to AX HANDLE! AX HANDLE! Kairi blocks a kick to spin Roxie and ROCK her! Then BLOCKBUSTER! The fans fire up with Kairi while Roxie goes to a corner. Kairi stomps along, goes to the corner, and she runs in, SLIDING D! The fans fire up again while Roxie flounders away.

Roxie drags Kairi to the drop zone, to LIONSAULT! Cover, TWO!!
Roxie drags Kairi and drops ELBOWS on the arm again and again! Then she steps over, and she YANKS on Kairi’s arm! Kairi clutches the elbow, goes to the corner, but Roxie runs in, only for Kairi to dodge! AX KICK! Kairi then Alabama Lifts Roxie up, only for Roxie to grab the ropes!

The fans boo, but Kairi says bet! SUPER CROSSBODY onto Raquel! The fans fire up, but Roxie CLOBBERS Kairi! Roxie puts Kairi in the ring, SOBAT and then hop on, POP- NO, Kairi pops free!

Backstage interview with Sami Zayn.
Jackie Redmond is with the taped up Underdog from the Underground, and she isn’t sure where to begin. She tried to interview Sami last week, only for Sami to be attacked by Karrion Kross. Sami clearly ends up with a rib injury, then he has Bron Breakker taking these verbal jabs at him. How is Sami managing all of this? Sami says he isn’t, really. He has a lot on his plate. He’d love to think more about his ribs, but he can’t. He’d love to pay attention to Kross, who is surely lurking. And he’d love to pay attention to the revenge he’ll get on Kross, but it won’t be tonight, so Sami can’t think about it. Sami has to focus on Bron Breakker.
Sami doesn’t care what Bron has to say about him, his beard, his music, or how much more Bron can bench than Sami. None of that matters. But Sami has to care about Bron because Bron is one of the most dangerous people in that ring. So that is all he can think about right now. Sami says Kross will be dealt with later. Sami heads out, but then in steps Scarlett. Jackie asks if there is something she was hoping to say. Scarlett smiles and says, “No.” Then is her presence alone a sign that Mr. Doomsday is in the house?
Adam Pearce talks with Team American Made.
He says Chad Gable had his surgery, El Grande Americano is here, what’s the problem? The problem is that El Grande Americano is here tonight. Yes… El Grande Americano requested this match personally. What’s the confusion? But Brutus says it is impossible, cuz Chad is hurt! Julius smacks Brutus on the head and Pearce smirks. Pearce asks how Gable’s injury could possibly affect El Grande Americano. Well, because… Ivy says she’s talked with Chad, he is not going to be happy about this. Well, Gable has Pearce’s number, he can take it up with him. But that’s clearly not the only reason they’re here, so what do they want from him?
Ivy says she wants a spot in the Evolution Battle Royal. Oh, well, she could’ve just led with that. Because she’s in. Happy? Yes. Good. Good! Then enjoy your night. American Made heads out, but Asuka helps Kairi in. And they want to get in on Evolution! Pearce was just thinking the same. Asuka & Kairi say they wanna take down Judgment Day! Pearce says good! They can represent Raw in the Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal 4 Way! The return of the Kabuki Warriors! YES! They’re for that! Pearce grooves with Kairi & Asuka, will The Princess & The Empress once again be champions?
Nikki Bella speaks.
“So it’s been a few weeks since I’ve been back, and oh how things change. I came back to talk about something very important to me: Evolution. But what I didn’t expect was to get into an altercation with Liv Morgan. I came to pay my respects to the women of today. But instead, Liv wants to question my womanhood? My legacy? And then she attacked me! Now, you know, I didn’t realize it at the time, but that lit a fire inside me. So while I’ve had some time to think, more than ever do I wanna make a return to that ring. I want one more moment to prove myself. I want one more moment to prove to the fans, to my Bella Army, of what I can do.
“I want one more moment to show my son what the WWE Universe has seen. And what better way to do that than to enter the battle royal in Atlanta for Evolution? Now, look, I know it won’t be easy. I will be facing some of the best women in all of the WWE. But you all know me. You know I’ll do whatever it takes to win. And I want to have that match at Clash in Parise. I want that title opportunity. And I wanna prove that you don’t fear the challenges that get put in front of you. You don’t run from your past. You face it, you learn from it, and you build a future that no one can take from you.
“The first Evolution was a history making event. So why can’t I make history now? This Sunday night, not only will I make history again, I will prove to everyone why Nikki Bella is fearless.” Then will nothing stop Nikki from grabbing her golden ticket to Parise?
Sami Zayn VS Bron Breakker w/ Paul Heyman!
We heard from both men about this rematch, but then KROSS ATTACKS SAMI! Kross doesn’t even let Sami make it to ringside before beating him down! The fans are torn but Scarlett is here to give Kross a steel pipe! Kross winds up, here’s the pitch! HOMERUN to the bad ribs!! The fans are torn again but Kross says he warned Sami to say it or else! Refs, producers, and Pearce rush in! They take the pipe from Kross, usher him and Scarlett out of the arena, but fans chant “We Want Kross!” Will Sami be able to compete after what Kross just did to him? We’ll see, after the break.
Raw returns, medics talk with Sami, and Sami insists he can go. Pearce isn’t so sure but Sami says he isn’t backing down. The medics say Sami is cleared as tolerated, so Pearce doesn’t really have a choice. Pearce lets this match continue, and here comes Bron! The bell rings and the fans bark as Bron and Sami circle. Bron grins, says, “Look at him! Look at him!” The fans rally, Sami tests the water with jabs, but Bron stays clear. Bron chuckles as he and Sami continue to circle. Bron then runs up and RAMS Sami into the corner! Bron RAMS Sami again and again and again! The fans either bark or boo as Bron looms over Sami.
Bron says he still doesn’t get why fans like Sami! “Look at him! He’s pathetic!” Bron says Sami is a bum! Bron stomps Sami, paces, then grabs an arm. Sami grabs the ropes, so Bron rips the rib tape away! Bron fireman’s carries for a GUT BUSTER DROP! Sami sputters and writhes, fans bark and boo, but Bron mockingly asks if Sami’s hurting. Bron says Sami can’t think he can beat Bron in this shape. Bron stalks Sami, brings him up, then OVERHEAD SUPLEXES! Sami flounders, fans boo and bark, but Bron aims from the corner. Sami slowly rises, turns around, and Bron runs up, but into a LARIAT! The fans fire up as Sami huffs ‘n’ puffs!
Sami goes to the corner, he clutches his side, but Bron runs in! Sami ELBOWS Bron away, goes up the corner, and Sami leaps to AX HANDLE! Sami hobbles, the fans rally, and Sami goes up again! Bron rises into a AX- SPEAR!! Bron takes Sami outta the sky! Sami tumbles out of the ring, commentary thinks the ref should just call it off, but Bron has a sinister smile before he scowls again. The fans either boo or chant, “One More Time!” Bron goes outside, builds speed, and he SPEARS Sami again!! Michael Cole & Corey Graves both want the ref and Adam Pearce to just call this off, but Providence wants more!
Bron drags Sami up, puts him in the ring, and he brings down the straps! The fans boo and bark, Bron builds speed, and Sami rises into a SPEAR!! Cover, Bron wins!
Winner: Bron Breakker, by pinfall
Another night, another devastating defeat, all because Sami is pushing his body after it’s been broken. Has Sami reached his “expiration date” like Bron said? Will Bron break more and more superstars?
Adam Pearce talks with the War Raiders.
Pearce appreciates Erik & Ivar coming to him, but he has to consider all the teams of Raw for a World Tag Team Championship opportunity. They also appreciate that, they just hope they’re at the top of the list. Pearce says absolutely, he’ll keep them in the loop. Pearce then senses someone behind him, and he turns around to see The New Day. They’re dressed all in black, holding black roses, and even wearing sunglasses and veils… He asks what he’s looking at. Xavier Woods says they’re in mourning. Um, it’s evening. No, mourning! Grieving!! Oh, well, what’re they grieving? Kofi Kingston says Pearce should know, he is an accomplice!
Pearce helped The Judgment Day kill the entire tag team division when he gave them that tag title shot last week! The least Pearce can do is tell them when they have their rematch. The War Raiders chuckle. What’d these dummies say when the War Raiders wanted their rematch? Something about opportunities going to new challengers. So no matter how stupid Woods & Kofi dress, they’re not getting automatic rematches for it. Pearce says they have a point. Becky Lynch walks in and gives her condolences to The New Day. They thank The Man, and say Pearce is full of horrible ideas. Becky agrees, Pearce is full of it.
And y’know what wasn’t a horrible idea? Getting rid of Big E. Becky never liked him, kind of a scumbag. That’s why she’s The Man! Becky heads out, but what will she have to say about her Women’s Intercontinental Championship Triple Threat? We find out, after the break.
Raw returns and…
Becky is in the ring, belt on shoulder and mic in hand while the fans boo. “Can someone please explain to me how two losers, two people who just lost last week to each other, have a title match against me in a Triple Threat at Evolution, where statistically, I am at a disadvantage? Can somebody please explain how that works? Look, look, look, look, look, I get it. I get that from Pearce’s perspective, I’m the greatest female wrestler to ever live. And it’s not just me saying that. Other people say that. Sports Illustrated is saying that.
“Multiple-time women’s champion, main evented WrestleMania, New York Times best-selling author, I’m in all these shows and movies right now, I’m hot, I get it. I get it from his perspective, you need me on Evolution. But I beat Bayley, I beat Lyra, neither of them deserve an opportunity. I deserve to pick my own opponent. Iyo got to pick her own opponent, Tiffany got to pick her own opponent, I pick this woman right here! And I’d beat ya in a second!” The fans boo, but Becky says she thinks that what is happening here is it is all a show, a ruse! Bayley and Lyra are in cahoots, working together, cuz they know that’s the only way they can get the title off Becky!
Last week, they both pinned each other. You know how statistically rare that is? But wait, here comes Bayley! The fans cheer as The Role Model has a mic in hand as she storms to the ring, but then Lyra Valkyria makes her entrance before Bayley can even speak! Lyra has her own mic, pushes past Bayley, and she gets in Becky’s face. “What are you talking about? What are you actually saying? Congratulations, Becky, you’ve completed your transformation into a total raving lunatic. Oh my gosh. My title is wrapped around the waist of a bucket full o’ crazy, and I think it’s time I took it back.” The fans cheer that!
Bayley steps into the ring, and she says, “Are you kidding me? The way I see it, is that I should be standing here as the Intercontinental Champion, if it wasn’t for you (Lyra) two weeks ago.” Lyra says oh, wow, she’s speaking to Lyra! Lucky her! What a treat! Sorry, Lyra is just having a bit of trouble keeping up. Bayley says yeah, okay, we get it. Sorry, get over it. Bayley didn’t get back to Lyra after WrestleMania. Let it go. If that time taught Bayley anything, she doesn’t need partners and she doesn’t need friends. What she needs is that title right there. Becky says, “Oh, Bayley~! Listen to you! After 13 years of failed friendships and grimy hugs, another one bites the dust, huh?”
But good to see Bayley isn’t trying so hard anymore. Cuz yea, Lyra dropped Bayley like a hot potato. Lyra says no, time to set the record straight. Lyra never told Bayley but everyone thinks Lyra brought Becky back. No, Becky attacked Bayley and then Becky called Lyra. Becky says there wasn’t much hesitation, though. But she remembers one thing Lyra did say: Bayley is everything Becky is pretending to be, and that Bayley would never betray Lyra. How’s that working out? Doesn’t seem Bayley’s pretending anymore. Lyra tells Becky to shut up, she can’t get in Lyra’s head anymore. But Becky was right about one thing…
How nice Bayley is finally admitting that she doesn’t care about friendships when it comes to gold. Y’know what that makes Bayley? It makes her just like Becky! Becky smirks but Lyra says she knows what she must do: She must rescue that title from two massive disappointments! Bayley says y’know what? She was front row when Lyra became the first-ever Women’s Intercontinental Champion. When Lyra won that title, Bayley was right there. And when they had the tag tournament to get to Mania, Bayley was on the apron, watching Lyra put in the work. Bayley saw Lyra rise to the top and become a double champion.
And then Bayley watched Lyra lose the Intercontinental Championship, and she raised Becky’s hand like a “little b*tch.” The fans fire up, Lyra winds up, but Bayley dodges, so Lyra DECKS Becky! Not who she meant to hit but she ain’t mad about it! Bayley comes back to fire hands with Lyra! The fans fire up and Lyra TOSSES Bayley out! Lyra runs to WRECK Bayley with a dropkick! But Becky is up to clinch! Lyra slips free, fireman’s carries, and NIGHTWING DRIVER! Becky writhes, Lyra tells her that’s what she gets! Bayley gets in, Lyra fireman’s carries Bayley! NIGHTWING DRIVER!
Lyra sits Becky up, tells her that this is the last time Becky’s hand is raised for this title. Lyra holds up Becky’s hand, shoves her down, then drops the belt on her. The Morrigan is ready for war, but will she be the one winning the gold? Or is it too soon to make this her Evolution?
Rollins and team regroup backstage.
Rollins says Bron taking down Sami was picture perfect, it could not have gone any better. He is so proud! Bron, what’s wrong? Bron says yeah, but what about Kross? What about Kross? Well, Kross ran out there, beat up Sami, and so people will think Bron didn’t win that on his own. Rollins says no, no, don’t worry about that. No one likes Kross. Sami was the target, and Bron got him! Not with one spear, but three spears! Heyman then steps in, and now he seems out of sorts. Rollins asks Heyman what’s wrong, and Heyman asks them if they’ve heard the news. No, what’s going on? Heyman says… Sami Zayn… is out of action indefinitely!
The group all smiles and laughs. Bron mockingly sings for Sami, and then Rollins asks Bronson why he’s laughing. It just occurred to Rollins that Jey Uso is in perfectly fine condition. Bronson says, “He won’t be after I’m done with him.” Rollins smiles and nods. Bronson heads out, will there be no more YEET for the WWE Universe?
Jey Uso is in the concourse!
The fans are going wild as Jey makes his way through. He asks them to please, PLEASE, hit his music! Four letters, one word, uh uh… YEET! The music plays, the fans fire up even more, and Jey makes his way down to ringside. Providence is bouncing along with Jey, but will there be an endless wave of Tsunamis headed for the ring? Or can one Uso Splash turn the tides?
Jey Uso VS Bronson Reed w/ Paul Heyman!
Raw returns as The Colossal Aussie makes his entrance, Wise Man- Er, “Oracle,” accompanying him. The bell rings and Bronson runs up! Jey dodges, fires haymakers, and the fans “YEET! YEET !YEET!” Reed ROCKS Jey, whips him to a corner, but Jey dodges the corner splash! Jey back body blocks, PELES, then brings Reed around to whip. Reed blocks, whips Jey away to a corner, then CLOBBERS him! The fans boo but Reed soaks it up. Reed rips Jey’s shirt away, CLUBS him down, then stomps him. And drops an ELBOW! Reed fire sup, the fans boo, and they rally for Jey. Reed runs but Jey avoids the senton!
The fans fire up as Jey fires haymakers on Reed! “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Jey pops, locks, puts some stank on it and even throws the shirt away, UPPERCUT! Mule kick! UPPERCUT again! Reed blocks the next kick but Jey DRAGON WHIPS! Reed tumbles out, Jey builds speed, “YEET!” and DIVE! Direct hit and Reed hits the desk! The fans fire up while both men are down, but Jey rises up. Jey clears off the desk and the fans fire up more! Jey refreshes the ring count, fetches Reed and brings him over, but Reed HEADBUTTS! Reed fireman’s carries Jey, but Jey slips free! Jey SUPERKICKS Reed and Reed sits in the armchair!
Jey aims, “YEET!” SUPERKICK! Reed and chair fall over in a heap! Jey leaves Reed behind for the ring count to climb, but then he builds speed again! Jey DIVES, but Reed CHUCKS the chair!!
Winner: Jey Uso, by disqualification
The fans boo as Reed ruins the match right as it was getting good! But Reed says he’s not done! Reed climbs up, TSUNAMI! Reed is going for his true goal and that is to crush Jey! Reed goes back up, TSUNAMI!! The fans boo, Reed beats his chest, but refs, producers, and Pearce rush out here! They won’t let Reed hit more than that! Reed chuckles, leaves the ring, but is that enough damage to keep Jey down? Or will Jey rise again to get revenge?
LA Knight speaks.
“Lemme talk to ya! My man, Seth Rollins, I am talking to you. The Visionary, Mr. Money in the Bank. You hold the case, you hold the power. But I’ll tell you what, man. One guy that you really kinda chapped just a little bit is this guy. You gotta whole lot of paying to do, cuz you’re in a whole lotta debt, my man. You have something that really shouldn’t belong to you. You are Mr. MITB, you hold the case, it’s yours to carry the burden. But here’s the thing, that burden’s gonna get real heavy and I’ll tell you why. You try and send your boys down there to do the damage, let’s think about it. One Tsunami, two Tsunami, three Tsunami, but I was back in one week!
“And here’s how it goes down, my man. The days are counting down, slowly but surely. I can’t take that case off of ya, but that’s okay. I’m not gonna try to. What I’m gonna do is I’m gonna make that case a permanent part of ya! Whether I stick it up your keister or I attach it to your damn head, you can bet that after Saturday Night’s Main Event, you can be the one to hold the case, but you will know exactly whose game this is, when even you’ll be saying L A Knight, YEAH.” The Mega Star has made his argument, but will he back up all those words with a B F T on Mr. MITB?
Raw reviews: Rhea Ripley has never beaten Iyo Sky.
Mae Young Classic, 2018: Iyo Sky wins. NXT 2020 for the NXT Women’s Championship: Iyo Sky wins. Raw just back in March of 2025, for the Women’s World Championship: Iyo Sky wins. And then WrestleMania 41, Las Vegas, Women’s World Championship Triple Threat: Iyo Sky wins. Rhea herself admits, Iyo has had her number ever since the beginning. That will always be on her mind. But she is someone who puts doubt in the fire to set herself alight. Rhea won at Night of Champions, and Iyo chose Rhea as her challenger just to prove Mami is NOT on top. Iyo says no one here in the WWE can stop her, this is HER era now.
Stardom, Mae Young Classic, NXT, SmackDown and Raw, Iyo has always found her way to the top. She wants to defend against the best, but no one will ever take this world title from her. There is nothing but respect here, but Rhea told Iyo that no matter what happens, Iyo asked for this. Will Iyo continue to have Rhea’s number? Or will this finally be when Rhea overcomes her greatest rival?
El Grande Americano VS Dragon Lee!
Well, as Brutus Creed almost let slip, there is definitely something fishy about how the man from the Gulf of America is even here. And even if it isn’t Chad Gable, this El Grande is still much taller than the first El Grande! Will the LWO’s Boy Wonder get to the bottom of this mystery? Or will we all be saying AH DANE SHCÖN instead of gracias?
Raw returns as Dragon Lee has made his entrance. The bell rings, and the fans rally up. Lee and Grande circle, tie up, and Grande headlocks. Lee powers up and out, Grande RUNS him over, and puts up the double peace. Things speed up, Grande rolls over the dropdown, then bypasses Lee. Lee wheelbarrow s to victory roll, ONE! Grande jumps to RANA Lee! The fans fire up, Lee ducks ‘n’ dodges to RANA! Grande runs up, Lee trips Grande to cover, ONE! Grande trips Lee and covers, ONE! Both men kip up and the fans fire up! Lee and Grande go again, Lee kicks and whips, but Grande goes up and over. Grande rolls, “Ah gracias!”
Lee runs up, Grande puts him on the apron, but Lee bumps Grande off buckles! Lee goes up, up, and CROSSBODIES! Cover, TWO! Lee blocks a kick, spins Kais- er, Grande to a waistlock. Grande wrenches free to wristlock, but Lee cartwheels and wrenches. Grande rolls, spins and arm-drags! Lee goes to a corner, Grande stands and puts up the double peace. The fans cheer, but Lee drop toeholds Grande into buckles! Grande staggers, Lee runs up, MONKEY FLIP! But Grande lands on his feet! The fans cheer, but then Lee DROPKICKS Grande! And LARIATS Grande up and out! Lee WRECKS Grande with a dorpkick!
Grande ends up on the desk that is still cleared off from before. Lee builds speed as the fans fire up, and Lee DIVES into a GAMANGIRI! Grande dumps Lee out, RAMS him into the steel steps, and then he CHOKES Lee! Kaiser rains down fists, talks trash in German, then THROWS Lee over the barriers! Grande says in rather clunky Espanol that he is the best luchador in the world, but Raw goes to break.
Raw returns again and Kaiser- Er, Grande has Lee up top on the corner. Grande pulls at the mask! The ref reprimands and the fans boo, but Lee throws elbows! Lee fights Grande off, rolls back to waistlock, but Grande grabs ropes! Grande ELBOWS Lee, goes up and up, but Lee CLUBS Grande! Lee gets under Grande to bring him from the corner! RUNNING POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO! Grande survives and the fans fire up! Both men rise up and the fans fire up. Lee vows to unmask this fraud! Lee grabs at the mask, Grande fights free, then Grande runs up. Lee dodges the lariat to SUPERKICK! And SUPERKICK! And V-TRIGGER!
Grande flounders to the corner, Lee runs in, JUMP KICK! LEG SWEEP! COMBINACION DRAGON FIRE! Lee then builds speed to HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! Cover, TWO! Lee waistlocks, Grande fights, and he ripcords to CHOP! Grande knuckle locks, goes up, and up, then FLYING BLOCKBUSTERS! Cover, TWO! Lee survives and Grande cannot believe it! Lee goes to the corner, Grande bumps him off buckles, then Grande climbs. Grande kicks at lee, Lee trips him up! Grande stays up, Lee CHOPS him into the Tree of Woe! The fans fire up as Lee climbs! WOE STOMPS!! Cover, TWO!! Grande survives and the fans fire up!
Lee builds speed and he FLIES! Down goes Grande! Lee puts Grande back in, but wait! Did Grande just slip in that metal plate? Lee leaps, Grande dodges, and they run up, LOADED HEADBUTT!! Cover, Grande wins!
Winner: El Grande Americano, by pinfall
Different man but same tricks! The win-loss record of El Grande Americano continues to be marred in controversy, but will Chad Gable have something to say about this?
Penta prepares backstage.
But then Heyman walks over and sets the MITB briefcase down. Heyman says hello, and that as Rollins’ personal Oracle, Heyman wants Penta to know that tonight is going to be the worst night of Penta’s life. Penta snaps back, “Esta noche?!” No, this will be his night! Bron steps in, and he says he has no idea what either of them just said. But he warns Penta to watch his tone. Penta tells Born to listen: CERO! MIEDO! Penta leaves, Bron and Heyman hate the stupid hand thing. But will Penta make them even more upset when he takes down Mr. Money in the Bank in tonight’s main event?
Gunther is here!
Providence is torn as Der Ring General makes his way to the ring. The fans do chant, “GOLD~BERG! GOLD~BERG!” but Gunther has a mic to say, “You’re right, this Saturday, Saturday Night’s Main Event, I will defend my World Heavyweight Championship against none other than Bill Goldberg.” The fans cheer, but Gunther says, “For the last two weeks, I’ve been verbally abusing Bill Goldberg in the middle of this ring. And so far, he’s done nothing about it. So I can only assume that Bill Goldberg is afraid! He’s afraid of me, he’s afraid of the pressure, he-” Wait, what’s that motor revving? GOLDBERG pulls up in a Barracuda!
Goldberg storms his way into the building, the fans chant for him more, and he goes right to gorilla! The music plays, Goldberg goes right out on stage, and the pyro fires off as he goes right down the ramp. The fans chant for “GOLD~BERG! GOLD~BERG!” as he goes up the steps and into the ring. Goldberg gets in Gunther’s face, the fans cheer more, and Goldberg says they’re gonna do this now! Gunther wrote the check, time for his ass to cash it! The fans are losing their minds seeing the stare down, but Gunther grins. Gunther raises the mic, but Goldberg slaps it out of his hand! Goldberg dares Gunther to take a shot!
Gunther winds up, but Goldberg blocks! Goldberg DECKS Gunther, then aims from a corner! Gunther stands, but he scrambles away! No iconic Goldberg spear tonight, but Goldberg reminds Gunther that there’re only FIVE DAYS left! Will Goldberg’s final match also be one last championship victory? Will Der Ring General put Goldberg out of his misery? And what of Rollins and his MITB briefcase?
PENTA VS Seth Rollins w/ Paul Heyman!
The unofficial best-of-3 series has been 1-1, only because Bronson Reed prioritized doing damage to Jey rather than pinning him. But will the man with no fear avenge both Sami and Jey by taking down the kingpin of Monday Night Raw? Or will the Visionary #BurnItDown on his way to Saturday Night’s Main Event?
Rollins takes his time with his very fluffy black fur jacket and handing it over to Heyman. The bell rings and Rollins turns around into a SUPERKICK! Rollins falls out of the ring, Penta hurries after, and the fans fire up as Penta SMACKS Rollins off the desk! And then into the Hydration Station! Penta KICKS Rollins in the leg! Rollins hobbles, Heyman gets away, but Rollins turns things around on Penta. Penta blocks the barrier bump to SMACK Rollins off them instead! The fans fire up with Penta and he stalks Rollins. Penta has Rollins against the post and CHOPS! Rollins is stinging already and he hurries into the ring!
The fans fire up fire up with Penta again, but Rollins bails out the side. Penta pursues and CLUBS Rollins! And SMACKS him off the desk again! Penta fires up, the fans are with him, and Penta has Rollins up against another post. Penta winds up, but Rollins ducks! Penta CHOPS post! Penta clutches his fingers, but Rollins TOSSES him over the barriers! The ring count is 7 of 10, Rollins refreshes the count, but Penta is back with a FLYING RANA! The fans fire up again and Penta hurries after Rollins. Penta pushes Rollins into the ring, Providence is all fired up, but then Rollins CLOBBERS Penta at the ropes!

The fans fire up and Penta builds speed, to FLY! Down goes Rollins and the fans fire up again! Both Penta and Rollins are down while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns once again, and Rollins RAMS Penta in the corner. Rollins snapmares Penta, runs, and KICKS Penta in the back! The fans are torn as Rollins pretends he just kicked the field goal. Penta sits up, Rollins uses the tail on Penta’s mask to wipe the blood from his eyebrow. Rollins wraps on a rear bearhug and squeezes tight! The fans rally, Penta reaches back for a headlock, but Rollins puts on more pressure. The fans rally up more and Penta stands. Penta fires body shots, then haymakers! Penta CHOPS, CHOPS, and CHOPS! Rollins CHOPS back! Rollins whips, Penta grabs ropes and BOOTS in return! Penta runs, mule kicks the leg, then SLING-DOGS!
The fans fire up as Penta runs in at the corner! GAMANGIRI for Rollins and he sits down! Headstand DROPKICK! Rollins flounders and the fans fire up with Penta again! Penta brings Rollins up, he pump handles, but Rollins fires elbows! Rollins reels Penta in, lifts him up, but Penta slips free! Penta kicks, whips, but Rollins reverses. Penta goes up and over to BACKSTABBER! Cover, TWO! Rollins stays in this, to Heyman’s relief, and “This is Awesome!” Rollins and Penta slowly rise, and Penta goes to a corner. Penta runs up, but Rollins fireman’s carries! Penta fights free, kicks low, and fires up again!
Penta runs, but Rollins has him at the ropes! Fireman’s carry, and then a GUT BUSTER! Rollins hurries up a corner! Rollins mocks the Cero Miedo before the FROG SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Penta survives and the fans fire up again! The fans taunt Rollins with a chant for CM Punk, but Rollins aims, runs up, but Penta avoids the stomp! Rollins is annoyed and he runs up on Penta again, but Penta puts him up top! GAMANGIRI! Rollins wobbles up top, Penta climbs, and the two fire shots. Penta goes to the apron, CHOPS, then he gets space. Penta runs to leap and FLYING RANA! Rollins tumbles, Penta pump handles, PENTA DRIVER!! Cover, TWO?!?!
Rollins survives and no one can believe it! Both men are down but stirring, and Heyman is stressing out. Penta loosens the chin strap and the fans rally behind him. Penta grabs one arm, wraps it up in a hammerlock, and he grabs the other arm! The fans fire up, but Rollins kicks free! Rollins pops Penta up, runs and BUCKLE BOMBS! Penta rebounds?! DESTROYER!! Both men are down again but Penta crawls to the cover, ROPEBREAK!!! Rollins survives by fingertips and Penta is stunned! The fans are thunderous as both men rise! “This is Awesome!” as Penta says, “CERO! MIEDO!” But Rollins stands up and LOW BLOWS!?
The ref asks what happened there, but Rollins gets away with one as his “back drop” works out. Then CURB STOMP!! Cover, Rollins wins!
Winner: Seth Rollins, by pinfall
The official score will be 2-1, but this might as well have been a 3-0 sweep by Rollins and his henchmen! Rollins has Heyman get on his phone, and Heyman tells them to get out here NOW! Bron & Bronson return, salivating for more destruction, but L A KNIGHT is here! B F T for Rollins!! YEAH!! Knight runs out of the ring before Bron & Bronson even get close! The Mega Star gets the last laugh here tonight, with all of Providence saying, “L! A! KNIGHT! YEAH!!” But will LA win big with another BFT in the ATL? Or can The Architect come up with a plan in just five days’ time?
My Thoughts:
A great Raw to act as the go-home to the huge Atlanta weekend. Great promo segment the still unnamed Rollins faction, Bron really surprising and maybe even scaring Heyman there, like Bron was going to step up and challenge Rollins for the top spot in the group or something. Very good response promo from Sami, but of course Kross attacked again. Sami toughing it out is made even greater for that attack, but naturally Bron won. Good group promo backstage to let us know Sami is going to be out for however long, but also to set up Bronson getting himself disqualified against Jey. Penta VS Rollins was great stuff, with a cleverly sneaky way for Rollins to cheat and win.
And while Knight had a good promo, him showing up to get the drop on Rollins was a much more effective move. Maybe Rollins gets payback on SmackDown, but maybe this is it and this indicates Rollins winning at Saturday Night’s Main Event. I still think Rollins should cash-in then, going after Gunther and Goldberg after there’s a winner. Gunther had a good start to a promo, and of course Goldberg showed up to get one on him. And even if Rollins doesn’t cash-in, I feel like we should get something Rollins VS Gunther related for SummerSlam.
Great stuff with this El Grande Americano 2 situation. Brutus all but said that Gable has been Grande all along, but Julius & Ivy kept him from saying the exact words. Great match from Dragon Lee VS Kaiser as Grande, Kaiser managed to do the ranas fairly smoothly. I almost thought American Made was going to confront Kaiser Grande right after that match, but maybe they’ll do that next week to build towards SummerSlam. I don’t know how long Chad Gable is out of action, but hopefully they keep El Grande VS El Grande in mind for when Chad is back. There can only be one, and I would think Chad beats Kaiser so that it is Chad Grande that faces Penta to finally unmask him.
Very good promo from Judgment Day, and a hilarious part from AJ Styles this week. Good promo from War Raiders and New Day with Pearce to perhaps set up a tag contenders match with them again. Good segue into Becky’s promo with Bayley and Lyra to hype up their Triple Threat. Lyra standing tall here might indicate she takes the pin for someone, and I’m leaning towards Becky retaining. It would be great if Bayley won, though, so that she and Becky could go 1v1 for SummerSlam. Good promo from Nikki Bella to announce her entering the battle royal. That’s a good pivot from what was clearly supposed to be Nikki VS Liv 1v1 or something like that.
Very good video promo of Rhea and Iyo to look back on their rivalry and to hype up their match. But given how Rhea’s never beat Iyo, I feel like this is supposed to be the one time she finally does win. Great match from Roxie VS Kairi, great win for Kairi, and Asuka making the save is a great move. Kabuki Warriors are back, and I feel like they could win the titles to add to the rivalry with Judgment Day. But at the same time, with Liv out for months, I could see Roxie winning Raquel over so that Roxie will have stolen title, boyfriend and best friend from Liv, same as Liv did to Rhea before her.
My Score: 8.9/10
