PLAY BY PLAY

Becky Lynch is here!

The Man didn’t get the title back, and now she has an arm in a sling. If not for those things, she’d be happier to be in Houston. Becky gets the mic while fans cheer her on. “Houston, welcome to the Big Time! Now, in everything that I do, I give it my all. And in the past, I’ve talked about hitting rock bottom, and I’ve talked about not knowing who I was when I lost the title at WrestleMania. But at SummerSlam, I am happy to say I remembered who the hell I am. And it ain’t in the fancy clothes, and it ain’t in the constant need for glory or validation, no. It is in the determination. It is in the persistence. It is in the relentlessness. It is in owning every mistake I ever made.

“It is in the pursuit to be better today than I was yesterday.” Fans cheer that sentiment, and Becky says that when she separated her shoulder at SummerSlam, she had two choices: give up, or give it everything she had. And so, she grit her teeth and fought through the 20 most painful minutes of her career. And believe her, they were painful, but not as much as realizing that she had become separated from reality. She did what she had to do, not only for herself but for the greatest women’s division ever! For all the women who work their asses off every single week in the back.

And so, when the referee counted three, her shoulders on the mat, Becky knew she had given her best, but it just wasn’t good enough. But she was reminded that she is not defined by one match. No, she defines the matches. And she is not defined by a title, SHE defines the title. And she won’t be defined by any man, because she defines THE MAN! And so, in a new ear, a new comeback story starts now. But she must give credit where it is due, and that is to the superstar who pushed her all year to be the B E S T that she can be. “Bianca Belair, get your ass out here.” Bianca obliges! Fans fire up as the RawEST Women’s Champion skips to the ring.

Fans cheer for the “E S T! E S T!” as Bianca gets a mic. Bianca tells Becky, “You not only defined The Man, but you are The Man.” The two hug it out and fans cheer more. Becky says Bianca can hold it down, and she’ll see her soon. Becky heads out as fans cheer for her again. Bianca says she has nothing but respect for Becky. And we know some people may be questioning how that can be, and best believe Bianca never forgot all the times Becky shakes her hand just to use the other to smack her in the face. But Bianca has never wanted to be handed anything. The title is only worth the amount of work put in to keep it, and Becky made Bianca put in the work.

So yes, Bianca shook Becky’s hand and there is now mutual respect. To be able to gain the respect of someone like Becky Lynch, that means something. Bianca has learned so much from Becky, and now she has a target on her back, but she will never be caught slipping. That is why she is still Raw Women’s Champion! Fans cheer that, too. Bianca says ready so she doesn’t have to get ready, and that means whoever is next. Whether it’s Bayley or her little friends who all thought it was funny to surprise Bianca at Summerslam, or- Wait, speaking of! Becky is under attack by Bayley, Dakota Kai & Iyo Sky! With a chair!!

Bianca rushes to the back as Bayley digs the chair into Becky’s bad shoulder! Bianca arrives but Bayley and her buddies have bailed already! Medics check on Becky’s arm, but when will Bianca get her hands on The Role Model and her new friends?

The Legacy of the WWE United States Championship.

Narrated by John “Bradshaw” Layfield. “America. A country built on opportunity deserves a champion that upholds its great legacy. A legacy of greatness is painted in red, white and blue.” Harley Race, Sgt. Slaughter, Roddy Piper, Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Scott Hall, JBL, Eddie Guerrero, John Cena, just to name a few. Ricky Steamboat was a proud champion, as were Booker T, Kofi Kingston, and now Bobby Lashley. “The United States Championship has helped shape the careers of 20+ Hall of Famers, and will continue to do so well into the future of the WWE.” And that new chapter starts NOW!

Logan Paul tweets his feelings after SummerSlam.

He knows he’s done a lot of crazy stuff in his life, but SummerSlam was by far the coolest. He is so addicted, he has found his calling. And he called the WWE executives, he has a multi-year, multi-event contract in the works> He is ready to get more of that energy from the jampacked arenas. He doesn’t know when or where, but we will see a massive third match and beyond. He is so happy to be part of the WWE, see you all soon!

Bayley talks with her new friends backstage.

She told them this is how it was going to be! They will take over. Sarah asks why Bayley targeted Becky, but Bayley asks, “Targeted? Is that what she thinks? Conceited! This isn’t about Becky and this is not about Bianca. This is about us! And you’ll see what I mean soon enough.” Bayley, Sky & Kai pass by the Usos and they all say hey. Now Sarah asks the Usos about defending their tag titles tonight against the Msyterios just days after SummerSlam. Same as they always are: 100%! SummerSlam was business as usual for the Bloodline! They beat the Profits, again. Roman Reigns beat Lesnar again. And tonight, the Usos beat the Mysterios… again! Because they the twos, and #WeTheOnes!

Seth Rollins is here!

The Visionary seems to be in a good mood. He didn’t get a SummerSlam match but he still got to stomp Matt Riddle down when The Bro came looking for a fight. Rollins gets a mic to welcome us to Monday Night Rollins! “And I am your host for tonight’s festivities. I am the Visionary, I am the revolutionary, I am…” Fans cheer “SETH! FREAKIN’! ROLLINS!” That’s right! And tonight is a night for celebration! Because we don’t have to see and we don’t have to hear that idiot, Riddle! Fans boo but Rollins says he gives credit where it is due. IT takes a lot of guts to do what Riddle did, showing up when he’s not cleared.

But there is a thin line between gutsy and stupid, and Riddle has crossed that stupid line more times than Rollins can count! But… There is a silver lining to this. “Riddle has wanted so badly to be like his big bro, Randy~. And now he’s on the shelf with a career threatening injury, just like Randy! HAHAHA!” Fans boo more but Rollins says there’s another silver lining. Now that Riddle is out of the way, Rollins can turn his attention… to Roman Reigns! And the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. But wait, the Street Profits are here! Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins have mics but Rollins says no no no no no! SHUT IT DOWN! SHUT THE MUSIC OFF! NO CUPS!!

Rollins knows the Profits- Don’t look at the fans! STOP! Fans cheer, the Profits encourage it, and Rollins gets annoyed. He knows they’re boys with Riddle but… OH SHUT UP! Rollins knows we’re in Houston, the Rockets’ home, so they’re used to watching losers! But Rollins doesn’t want to share any air space with the biggest losers in ALL the WWE! HAHAHA! How many times have the lost to the Usos now? One, two, three MILLION? Rollins lost count of that, too! The Profits suck so much as a team, they should just break up. Pack it in, go to the back, this is Rollins’ time, baby! HAHAHA!

Dawkins asks Rollins, “Didn’t we beat you to become Raw Tag Team Champions?” Ford says wait! They know who this is now! The same guy who got his ass whooped by Cody Rhodes when Cody only had one booby! Oh shut up!! You come out here for a fight, did you?! You wanna fight?! Rollins would love nothing more to come down and stomp both of them into the stage, but that’s 2v1, that’s not fair. Maybe if there was one, maybe. So split up, one of you come back, we can do this then. Or, another way. Houston, do you wanna see one of the Profits beat the crap outta Seth tonight? “YES!” Well Seth, be careful what you wish for.

So they’ll figure this out the fair and proper way. They’ll do this rock, paper, scissors! Get a ref out here! This is the only time we see the Profits fight. A ref appears and here goes. Rock, paper, scissors- Oh shoot, Ford threw his mic at Dawkins and brings the ref to the ring! But then he manages to avoid Rollins’ stomp! Rollins rushes out but Ford gets in! Rollins says that’s fine, that’s fine! He gets in again, but Ford clotheslines him out right at the bell!

Ford switches, Rollins witches, Ford slips out of the suplex this time to run and BLOCKBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Ford grits his teeth, crawls to a corner and climbs up. Rollins hurries after Ford, anchors a leg, but Ford CLUBS Rollins and throws haymakers! Rollins staggers away, Ford gets back in, but Rollins PELES! Roll-up, TWO! Rollins aims, SUPERKICK! Cover, TWO!

Edge is here!

And on this day, he sees clearly! Yes, the Rated R Superstar is back to his old self again! Edge gets a mic as fans cheer him on, and he says, “Houston, thank you for that. Because to be fair, for the last few months, I’ve been a bit of an a-hole. But that all changes now, because now, we both get what we want. I’ll keep this real simple. I created Judgement Day with the thought that I was gonna help underutilized talent to realize their full potential. That maybe I could pass on some knowledge that I’ve accumulated over my 30 year career to Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley. Yeah, let ’em know.” Fans boo and Edge says he has to be honest, they were just getting started.

But apparently, that first taste of power clouded their judgment, They thought they learned all there was to learn. But they were wrong! TO be fair, along with Finn Balor, they pulled one over on him. He didn’t see that coming, and that is rare. But if you witnessed SummerSlam, you saw Edge pull himself out of the Hell they put him in! “And now it’s time to kill what I created. FINN! DAMIAN! RHEA! I am going to END Judgement Day!” Short and sweet, just as he said! Will the Rated R Superstar eradicate of the Prince, the Punisher and the Eradicator?

The Mysterios prepare backstage.

Father and son are ready, but Kevin Patrick walks in to first congratulate them on their win against The Judgement Day at SummerSlam, and then ask them about tonight’s tag title match. Rey says the shift in focus is possible because The Judgement Day are in their rearview. The Judgement Day has Edge to worry about. And Rey and Edge go way back, so they have no idea how much of a savage Edge can be. IN fact, Rey & Edge were once tag team champions. That is a bond that lasts forever, and Rey can’t thank Edge enough in helping Rey & Dom avenge themselves and their familia.

But as far as tonight goes, they’re about one thing and one thing only: Defeating the Usos and becoming the UNDISPUTED WWE Tag Team Champions! Here, Houston, VIVA MI RAZA! Dom and Rey are fired up, will the lucha libre lineage be the first-ever TWO-TIME father-son tag team champions?

Backstage interview with Bayley, Kai & Sky.

Sarah wants to bring up SummerSlam but Bayley cuts her off. They’re not talking about Bianca or Becky, are they? They’re talking about Kai, Sky and Bayley! Yes, Sarah is supposed to ask questions, but Bayley asks us, “What did you expect?” Have we not been watching the same show she’s been watching? These idiots have been on a downward spiral ever since Bayley left, so she took it as a cry for help. The WWE needed the Role Model, so she outsourced to two of the very best, who have waited far too long for this moment!

Kai says they know how to play the game. They know what they want and how to get there, and soon, they will be in full control. Sky says in Japanese and English, “Bianca, see you out there.”

Bianca Belair VS Iyo Sky!

The RawEST Women’s Champion respects Becky, so that is why it set her off that Bayley, Kai & Sky would disrespect Becky and attack her backstage. Will Bianca get some semblance of revenge by taking out the Evil Genius? Or is this just the start of the takeover?

The bell rings and Bianca and Sky rush in! Bianca RAMS Sky to a corner, bumps her off buckles, then stomps a mudhole in! The ref counts, Bianca lets off to RAM into Sky with more shoulders.

Direct hit and the Evil Genius is all smiles as Raw goes to break.

Raw returns and Bianca fights a chinlock. Bianca scoops and SLAMS Sky, goes to a corner, and she dodges Sky as she runs in. Bianca ROCKS Sky, jumps in and runs Sky over! Bianca rallies, dropkicks then kips up! Fans fire up with Bianca and she gets Sky for a chicken wing! But Sky victory rolls through to put Bianca on ropes! Sky runs in, DOUBLJ EKENES to the back! Bianca is down, Sky has her in the corner and stomps a mudhole in! Sky digs both boots in, then SWINGING KNEES her down! Cocky cover, TWO! Sky keeps on Bianca with forearms, but Bianca shoves her away. Sky catches the haymaker for a takedown!

Sky has a modified facelock but Bianca endures. Bianca drags Sky up but Sky uses that to hit a RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Cover, TWO! Sky grows frustrated but this is why Bianca is the toughEST. Sky goes to a corner and climbs up, to CROSSBODY! But Bianca rolls through, brings her up, and FALL AWAY SLAMS! Fans fire up as Bianca grits her teeth and gets back up. Bianca drags Sky up with the chicken wings, to then GlamEST SLAM! And the HANDSPRING MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Bianca is surprised but this is why Sky got all the NXT Women’s Championships.

Sky goes up after Bianca, fires off shots, then brings Bianca in, for a SUPER STEINER! Bianca goes flying and Sky covers, TWO! Bayley and Kai coach Sky, she still has control. Bianca is at the ropes and Sky runs in. Bianca elbows her away, suplexes, but Sky cradle counters! TWO and Bianca deadlifts Sky for a suplex SLAM! Fans fire up while both women are down! Bianca drags Sky up, torture racks, but Sky kicks and lands on her feet! Sky dumps Bianca out to the apron!

Bianca ROCKS Sky first, drags Sky up, but Sky climbs to the ropes. Bianca kicks but Sky blocks to CLUB the leg! But Bianca waistlocks! Sky holds onto the ropes to deny the suplex! Sky elbows free, RANAS, but Bianca blocks! Bianca SWINGS Sky into barriers! Bayley and Kai look worried but the ref has them stay back.

The Miz gives Ciampa a pep talk.

The US Championship’s legacy is highlighted by Harley Race, Dusty Rhodes, The Miz himself, and now Ciampa! But Kevin Patrick walks over to ask them about how things didn’t go Miz’s way against Logan Paul, or in his Triple Threat tonight. But Ciampa- Oh, what part didn’t go his way? Miz got cheated against Logan Paul! A formidable fighter? Sure. An incredible athlete? Yeah. But the WWE is not a playground for an entitled YouTuber to cash a paycheck. Miz had Logan where he wanted him, he had Logan’s moveset dissected and beat. But then Styles blindsided Ciampa like the coward he ism, helping Logan get a tainted victory.

Now why would Styles do that? Was Styles the one training Logan just to beat Miz? Those are the questions we should be asking, but for tonight, Ciampa will make Styles realize he chose the wrong side. Ciampa used to respect Styles and his accomplishments, both before the WWE and coming to the WWE. But Styles chose to support a social media influencer who makes a mockery of their home! So tonight, when Ciampa crushes Styles’ dreams, it will be that much more satisfying.

Miz says to look at the passion and devotion in those eyes. Ciampa may have not helped Miz win at SummerSlam, but Miz will help Ciampa become the next elite WWE Superstar! Under Miz’s tutelage, we are looking at the NEXT WWE US Champion! Will the Hollywood A-Lister make all of Ciampa’s WWE dreams come true?

Booker T joins commentary!

Winner: Tommaso Ciampa, by pinfall (NEW #1 Contender to the WWE US Championship)

Miz celebrates with his guy, because they beat Styles for this opportunity! Will Miz help Ciampa do this to Lashley, too? Speaking of…

Backstage interview with Bobby Lashley.

The All Mighty leaves Austin Theory behind, and now has Ciampa coming next week. He wouldn’t have it any other way. Lashley wants to defend this title every week because he lives for this. Ciampa proved he is a brawler, he is tough and hungry, and that makes him dangerous. Especially with that conniving Miz in his corner. But Lashley will defeat anyone, anywhere, any time! He’s bringing respect back tot his title. Lashley humbled Theory, and he will give Ciampa a reality check by putting him in the Hurt Lock. Will the All Mighty make Ciampa and Miz pay for their plotting and scheming?

My Thoughts:

A pretty awesome Raw to follow up an awesome SummerSlam! So jam-packed, but full of stuff that not only entertains but progresses stories. Great stuff for the WWE United States Championship to really pump it and the midcard up. I would’ve thought one giant Six Man with all those contenders would’ve been good enough, but getting two separate Triple Threats and then the 1v1 match was great to give everyone time to shine, and to fill out the three hour requirement. Great to see that we got Styles VS Ciampa out of this, and of course Miz helps Ciampa win, but that’s definitely a fitting move in this story. Lashley VS Ciampa next week will also be in Cleveland, Miz’s hometown, you can beat Miz will do everything he can to help Ciampa against Lashley, and who knows which way it goes.

A big bummer Becky Lynch hurt her shoulder at SummerSlam, but we still got awesome stuff out of the Raw Women’s Division. Bianca still has allies against Bayley, Kai & Sky with Alexa Bliss and Asuka also being targets of the new faction. Even before the attack, Alexa VS Asuka was getting all sorts of stuff in. Then Bianca VS Sky was awesome match, though of course Bayley and Kai showed up, prompting Alexa and Asuka to be on Team EST. While another No Contest finish to a women’s match is a bit much, at least it was with an awesome brawl. A Six Woman Tag has to happen now, and then we see if Bianca VS Bayley for the title happens at Clash at the Castle.

We got a great promo from Rollins and the Profits, and then an awesome match out of Rollins VS Ford to show everyone that Ford is ready to go solo. Dawkins did defend Ford, but who knows how this settles out. Edge delivered his promo perfectly but I’m a little surprised he just reset to Rated R Superstar. I was expecting a hybrid of all his personas, but I guess it was just easier for everyone if he was the previous iteration. And while he calls out Judgement Day, clearly Judgement Day still wants after Mysterios. We got an awesome tag title match out of Usos VS Mysterios, but of course Usos win. Mysterios then get mugged by Judgement Day, Edge tries to help but Dom takes the worst hit. I might have called it at SummerSlam: Dom goes down, Rey & Edge reunite!

My Score: 8.9/10
