Mixed 8 Person Street Fight: The Wyatt Sick6 VS Team American Made!

Bo Dallas has been trying to get Chad Gable to see the error of his ways, but to error is human. So Uncle Howdy had to step in. He has brought back the family back to laugh, and now Sister Abigail, Ramblin’ Rabbit, Huskus the Pig Boy & Mercy the Buzzard shall bring a reckoning to Gable, Ivy Nile & The Creed Brothers! Will Gable’s “new family” survive the sins of their “father?” Or will being “American Made” not be enough to avoid the consequence?

American Made makes their entrance first, already armed with kendo sticks, chains, and a trash can. Of course, being so over the top with the American flag, Gable gets booed by the Calgary, Alberta, Canada crowd. But then, the lights go out, the piano plays, and the lantern sits waiting in the rocking chair. The Wyatt Sick6 walk out from the eerie late, Howdy picks up the lantern, and they continue down to the ring. Then the lantern is blown out as Howdy takes a seat. The masks come off, and Howdy sends Gacy, Rowan & Lumis. Naturally then, Nikki Cross will also be in this battle, and she TACKLES Ivy!

The fans fire up and the bell rings, the brawl is on! Rowan TOSSES Julius, Lumis TOSSES Gable, and Gacy CLUBS Brutus!

Brutus and Gacy brawl in the ring, Ivy FLAPJACKS Nikki on the desk! Gacy fires hands, Ivy TOSSES Nick, and she almost takes out Joe Tessitore!

The Creeds SMACK away on Gacy, then they join Gable in the ring. They SMACK away on Lumis now, from head to toe! They CHOKE Lumis with the kendo stick, then Gable prepares another chair. Lumis sits up, but he avoids the chair! BIG back suplex! The fans fire up, Lumis kips up to LEG DROP! Gacy fights back, too, but that’s 2v1 with the Creeds. Julius throws Gacy into the ring, and SMACKS him with a stick! But Lumis brings out a new TABLE! The fans fire up, but The Creeds double whip. Gacy handsprings, into the UPSIDE-DOWN!! Both Creeds fall and the fans fire up again! Lumis has Gable, and “This is Awesome!” as Lumis puts Gable on the table!

How does she look crazier than earlier!? Nikki SMACKS away on Ivy with the kendo stick!

Nikki SMACKS Ivy off the desk, then TACKLES her up and over! They tumble, but then Gacy RAMS Gacy and the can! A bit double-edged, but The Creeds drag Gacy up. They RAM him into a corner! Gacy is finally free of the can but The Creeds are not done yet. Julius brings out a THIRD TABLE! The fans are torn, they do love the tables but they aren’t happy American Made is on top. Even so, Brutus sets up the table while Julius puts Gacy in the ring. The fans chant “YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!” but The Creeds bring Gacy over. But ROWAN ERUPTS! The fans are thunderous and The Creeds freak out!

Rowan throws things aside, DECKS Julius, BOOTS Brutus, then rampages around. He RAIPS part of the barrier away!! And he RAMS the barrier into Julius! And then Brutus! And then Gable! Usually, it’s the other way around! Calgary is thunderous as Rowan puts Brutus in! And then a LARIAT! LARIAT! And LARIAT in the corner! Rowan snapmares Brutus, runs up and DROPKICKS him down! Julius returns but Rowan LEG LARIATS! Brutus is up, but he gets a SIDE EFFECT! Cover, Gable breaks it! American Made mugs Rowan and the fans boo again.

Winners: The Wyatt Sick6, by pinfall

There was a debt to be collected, and the Wyatts made American Made pay it! The Wyatts stand tall and they stand together, how high can they reach?

Finn Balor is here!

The Prince heads to the ring, WWE World Tag Team Championship around his waist, but it is rather surprising he doesn’t have the rest of the team with him. Finn gets a mic to say, “It didn’t have to be this way, Damian. You see, you said that I screwed you. But really, you screwed The Judgment Day! You see, when I joined the group, I reached down, I reached down, and I tried to help you up! But the more I helped you up, the more you tried to hold me down. That’s right, Damian! You held me down! Your friend! I was your brother! I was the guy who had your back. I was the guy who made sure that you stayed champion!”

Finn paces, fans boo, but Finn says let’s not forget that FINN should’ve been World Heavyweight Champion a long time ago, if not for Damian lurking around with that briefcase every chance he could. Because every time Finn got close, it was Damian who screwed Finn! So Finn needs Damian to stop hiding and come on out, because he has things he wants to say to Damian’s face! And so, here comes The Punisher! Damian throws off his jacket, steps right into the ring, and says ever since FINN broke up “the REAL Judgment Day,” he’s been trying to get his hands on Finn. Finn’s run away every time!

So here’s what’s gonna happen: Damian will let Finn finish what he’s saying, and then he’s gonna drop Finn’s ass! The fans fire up but Finn says no no no, that’s not gonna happen! Damian doesn’t tell Finn what to do anymore, because Finn’s not his sidekick! This is FINN BALOR, and Damian made him into a sidekick!? NO! The Prince ain’t no sidekick! The fans chant “SIDEKICK! SIDEKICK!” Finn says Priest & Rhea fall on the same night, because Finn wants Damian 1v1 at Bad Blood! The fans like that idea! Oh, challenging Damian? CHALENGE ACCEPTED! Now, time to do what Damian came here to do.

Oh, no no no. Damian is forgetting one thing. Hasn’t he forgotten the playbook? Playbook!? Damian wrote that book! Damian is gonna explain something to Finn. And then he DECKS Finn! But here comes JD & Carlito! Damian DECKS them, too! The fans fire up as Damian throws more hands, but Dirty Dom stayed back! Dom LEAPS in, but Damian catches him! But now it’s a 4v1 mugging! The fans boo as JD holds Damian’s legs down so the others can stomp away! But here comes Rhea Ripley! She hobbles still, but Dom steps in her way. Because here comes Liv! Rhea JAMS Liv up with the crutch! But Dom snatches that crutch! so Rhea SLAPS Dom!

Rhea JAMS Dom, winds up, and SMACKS Dom on the back! But Liv CHOP BLOCKS the bad leg! The fans boo but Liv CLUBS away on Rhea! Finn SLINGBLADES Priest! The mugging continues, Liv CRACKS Rhea with her crutch! And again, and again, and again! The fans boo as Liv holds Rhea down with the crutch, and the boys keep dropping Damian! Liv winds up with the crutch, but Damian shields Rhea! So Liv just SMACKS away on Damian’s back! Then Dom gets a turn! The fans boo but no one can stop Judgment Day from beating Damian with the crutch! BUT NOW JEY IS HERE! Jey has a chair, he runs Judgment Day off!

The fans fire up with “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Jay helps Rhea sit up and checks on Priest. Jey may have a battle in the main event tonight, but will he have a bigger part to play against Judgment Day?

Backstage interview with Braun Strowman.

Jackie Redmond is with The Monster of All Monsters, and says this is one of the more “miraculous” stories in this contenders series. The injuries Braun suffered at the hands of Bronson Reed would put most men on the shelf for months. Braun says it is no secret that he’s still banged up from that. But that said, he knew he had to step up. No offense to The Miz, he’s just no match for Bronson. And that match last week did Braun no favors. But he won’t use that as an excuse. For the better part of the last decade, he has shown the entire WWE Universe it takes way more than that to keep him down.

Braun may be wounded now, but he’ll show the world that a wounded monster is even more dangerous. But then in steps Bron Breakker. What does he want? Bron looks at Braun and admits, he’s a monster. Everyone knows that, but seeing it for himself, Bron admits again, Braun’s a monster. But Bron is going to prove to Braun, the WWE, and the world, that you don’t have to be some 7 foot tall, 900 pounds just to be a monster. Bron’s a dog, and the reason Braun is still standing is because he hasn’t stood across from Bron. Oh is that what he thinks? Then this kid doesn’t know who he’s talking to.

Bron says he actually hopes Braun wins tonight. “See you around, you big SOB.” Oh, he will. Will we get a battle of Bron VS Braun to see who has the most brawn in WWE?

WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships: Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill VS Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn!

The StrongEST Duo lost at Clash at the Castle but won at the Bash In Berlin, so now they and The Unholy Union need to put to R E S T who are truly the B E S T. Will Bianca & Jade prove that 2v2, there’s no two better? Or will there be one last spell to cast?

The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and we see who really stands atop WWE!

The teams sort out and Bianca starts against Alba. They tie up, Bianca healdocks, but Alba pulls hair to power up and out. Bianca runs Alba over! The fans fire up and Bianca keeps moving. Bianca handsprings over the drop down, then says kiss this! Alba runs up, Bianca hurdles, but Alba blocks the hip toss! Bianca wrenches, whips, and Alba bounces off buckles. Bianca scoops and SLAMS Alba, then she tags Jade. The fans fire up as Jade & Bianca double whip. They DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE, but Isla runs in! She gets DOUBLE SHOULDERS, too! Isla bails out, Jade & Bianca DOUBLE LARIAT Alba out onto her!

The fans fire up with the StrongEST, but Isla helps Alba into the ring. Alba tags Isla, they flank Jade, then Isla CLUBS her! Isla whips, Jade reverses and scoops! The fans fire up as Jade marches around, then SLAMS Isla! Alba storms in, but into a scoop! And then a SLAM! The fans fire up for Jade, and she runs into the corner, BIG elbow for Alba! Jade runs at Isla but Isla dodges! Isla SMACKS Jade off buckles, then climbs up to rain down fists! But Jade stops Isla at three! Alba tags in, Jade atomic drops Isla, but Alba CHOP BLOCKS! Isla KNEES Jade down, Alba covers, TWO! Alba is annoyed, but she stomps away on Jade’s legs.

Alba steps through, but Jade BOOTS her away! Tag to Isla and she drags Jade back. But Jade BOOTS her, too! Hot tag to Bianca! The fans fire up as Bianca rallies on Isla with big shoulder tackles, then a DROPKICK! Alba runs up, into a wrench and suplex! Bianca holds Alba up, marches around, then SLAMS her down! And kip up! The fans fire up with Bianca, and she runs at Isla to RAM her! Bianca climbs, rains down fists, and fans count along. Bianca goes to nine, but has to flip over Alba! Bianca then dodges the wicked witches, goes up and CROSSBODIES them both down! The fans fire up again, and Bianca HANDSPRING MOONSAULTS! Cover, TWO!

Isla survives but Bianca torture racks! Alba tags in first, and Isla slips free! Bianca swings on Alba, Isla ROCKS Bianca! Alba climbs, but Bianca shoves Isla into her! Bianca then climbs up after Alba, but Isla anchors the superplex! Isla tags in, Alba CLUBS away on Bianca. Isla & Alba bring Bianca up for a DOUBLE POWERBOMB! High stack, TWO!! Bianca survives and Isla is seething! Alba is pulling her hair out, but Isla tags her in. The Unholy Union DOUBLE SUPLEX, but Jade makes the save! The fans fire up as Jade then shoves Isla into Alba, and chicken wings Isla! But Isla victory rolls, Alba SUPERKICKS!

Bianca rolls Alba up, TWO! Bianca runs up but into a trip! Alba rolls Bianca right into a Gory Especial! Isla tags in, for SOMETHING WICKED!! Cover, Jade breaks it!! The fans fire up and Isla is beside herself! Isla tags Alba back in, and they stomp away on Bianca. The ref counts, Isla lets off, and Alba puts Bianca on ropes. But Bianca shoves back! Bianca ducks a sucker punch to POST Isla! Alba dodges the lariat to SUPERKICK! Bianca staggers, Jade tags in! Alba sees that and is furious. But Jade still BOOTS her down! The fans fire up, and Bianca rolls Alba for Jade! Wheelbarrow, DDT, STORM SUPLEX!! Cover, Bianca & Jade win!

Winners: Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill, by pinfall (still WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions)

The Unholy Union couldn’t stop these two, Bianca & Jade could truly be THE strongest team in the Women’s Division ever!

Backstage interview with The Latino World Order.

Jackie says Dragon Lee faces Dirty Dom, and we all know how Judgment Day rolls. How has the LWO prepared? Dragon says claro que si, Dragon Lee is ready. Everyone knows Judgment Day can’t do anything alone. They showed that last week, they showed it tonight, but Dragon has his own back-up. Rey Mysterio says they couldn’t have picked a better man than Dragon Lee. “And oh, look who it is! The Addams Family!” Rey asks Judgment Day what they even want, and Liv says they like crashing parties. Finn says if they didn’t see what happened out there, but if you stand in the way of The Judgment Day, it’ll be you next!

Rey says all he saw was a bunch of wannabe thugs that run away from real fights. Dom says watch your mouth, deadbeat. Rey says watch your tone, son! But Rey says Finn needs to stop hiding behind Rey’s stupid son and face Rey in the ring tonight. Finn says he’s on! But Rey just made a huge mistake. Judgment Day heads out, but will LWO score some major points before the Terror Twins go for Bad Blood?

Bret Hart is here!

Joe Tessitore gives the Hitman his introduction, and Calgary fires up as the Hall of Famer makes his way to the ring. Tessitore says, “Calgary, he’s back!” Tessitore knows this was a tough ticket, but there’s an announcement for something special in Canada. The fans go wild for Bret, and Tessitore says WWE will return to Canada in late November! SURIVOR SERIES VANCOUVER! Tickets on sale Friday! Wade says Bret is a hero to everyone in the locker room, but how does it feel to be home on Raw, here in the Saddle Dome? Bret says this is the place to be! No one took more pride than he did being a champion for Canada.

And he’ll tell us a thing about Canadian champions. Canadian champions take on anyone! They never duck a challenge, and they have to prove themselves like Bret did every night for 20 years, that he’s The Best There Is, The Best There Was, and the Best There Ever Will Be! But wait! GUNTHER is here! Der Ring General smiles but the fans boo as he approaches the ring. Gunther gets a mic while fans boo more, but Gunther says, “Ladies and gentlemen, what a time to be alive! Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart! I tell you this, I’m about to pour my heart out to one of my childhood heroes. In all seriousness, The Best There Is, The Best There Was, and The Best There Ever Will Be.”

The fans cheer and Gunther says this is a passing-the-torch moment. Because yes, Bret was the best there was, but Gunther is the NEW Best There Is and Ever Will Be. So now, with that out of the way, Gunther wants to express something from the bottom of his heart. He is serious about this. Just like Wade said before, yes, everyone in the back respects Bret, we all watched Bret growing up. And Bret has always been a childhood hero for Gunther. So he wanted to take this moment to tell Bret that Bret will always be a close second to Gunther’s real favorite, Bill Goldberg! The fans boo more as Gunther had to mention that name.

But wait! Here comes Sami Zayn! The fans fire up as Sami wears a Calgary Flames Gaudreau jersey! The fans also sing Sami’s song as he goes to the ring. Sami stands with Bret, and he gets a mic to tell Gunther he has a lot of nerve to stand in this ring, in this city, and talk to Bret the way he just did! Gunther thinks this is a joke? Guess what? It isn’t a joke, Bret IS a Canadian hero! And in case you can’t tell, Bret is a hero to every single person in this city! And to an entire generation of wrestlers who are still studying Bret’s work to this day! And more importantly, Bret is a hero to Sami. The fans cheer all of that!

Sami says Gunther may be World Heavyweight Champion, but Bret is the one who set the tone for what it means to be a champion! But what does Gunther do? Sami challenges Gunther, but Gunther tucks tail, turns around, and runs away. Gunther wants to say the Best There Is? Then prove it! Gunther VS Sami, part 2, for the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! The fans fire up for that idea! Gunther thinks on it, then grins as the fans boo. Gunther tells Sami, “Understand this. With all due respect, Bret, but you’re not in my league. And Sami, as much as you want to be, and as much as Bret is your hero, you’re far away from being in the league of Bret Hart.

“So what does that tell you? My answer remains no.” The fans boo as Gunther again leaves, but Bret’s the one to say that doesn’t look like a champion to him. That looks like a coward! A dirty, yellow coward! A gutless, yellow coward! Gunther gets mad, the fans chant “COWARD! COWARD!” but then Sami gets in Gunther’s face. They argue, but then Gunther takes a swing! Sami counter punches and keep son Gunther! Sami POSTS Gunther, HAMMERS away at the barriers, but refs rush out here! The fans boo, but Sami goes back to the ring with Bret. Fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT!” but Gunther retreats again.

Bret smirks as Gunther continues to prove him right. But will Der Ring General be convinced to settle things with Sami Zayn after all?

Pete Dunne crosses paths with Bron Breakker.

Bron didn’t know what to think of Dunne. He used to hang with Sheamus. But what did he used to be called? Don’t even call him that name, Bron. Bron says okay, Pete. But then Dunne tells Bron what’s gonna happen: Dunne takes one step closer to taking that title; tomorrow night on NXT, Dunne will SMASH Trick Williams and be one step closer to taking the NXT Championship; and after that, Dunne will SMASH Bron. Then Bron can just call him Double Champ. Bron tells Dunne that the worst thing Dunne could possibly do is convince himself he can beat Bron in a fight, because he can’t.

When it is all said and done, Bron will have that dumb look on his face as he does that stupid shrug, wondering, “Man, what just happened to me out there? Man, Bron Breakker’s a badass. Man, why’re the dogs barkin’ so loud in Canada?” But good luck. Bron leaves, but here comes Sheamus! He KNEES Dunne into the wall, and takes back his shillelagh! Now Dunne’s the real butch! Let’s bleedin’ go! Dunne ducks a shillelagh swing and runs away! Producers rush in, Sheamus tells them to get away! The Celtic Warrior is ready for a fight, but will he have to wait his turn given Dunne’s busy schedule?

Dominik Mysterio w/ Judgment Day VS Dragon Lee w/ The LWO!

Dirty Dom finally got a win over his dad with the help of Liv Morgan, and now Dom looks to settle things with the man Rey called “the future of lucha libre.” Will Liv and Judgment Day help him check that name off his list? Or will Dragon get in trouble for burning the trash?

Raw returns as the LWO make their entrance, sans Zelina Vega as she has her own match to prepare for. The bell rings, they circle then tie up, and they go around. They go on the mat, into a corner, and Dom turns things around. The ref counts, Dom lets off to CHOP, but Dragon TACKLES Dom! Dragon rains down fists, then has a leg, HALF CRAB! Dom scrambles to the ROPEBREAK! Dragon lets go, but Dom BOOTS him! Dom runs up but into a fireman’s carry! ROLLING SENTON, and Dragon goes up a corner! CROSS- DROPKICK! The fans boo but Dom hurries to cover, ONE!! Dom is upset but Dragon is tougher than that.

Dom flexes on Dragon, drags him up, and t hen TOSSES Dragon out! LWO is there to help Dragon up, but Dom soaks up more heat. Judgment Day cheers, and Raw goes picture in picture.

Dom paces while he waits on Dragon. Dragon paces, slides in, but Dom BOOTS him first! Dom brings Dragon around, snapmares, and then clamps on a chinlock. Dom CLUBS Dragon with crossface forearms, then clamps on an even tighter chinlock! Dragon endures, fights up, and throws body shots. Dragon ROCKS Dom, runs up, but Dom TOSSES Dragon out! Dom DIVES and direct hit at the ramp! Dom taunts the fans, flexes, and Liv applauds. She’s the only one. Dom drags Dragon up, puts him in the ring, then flexes again. Dom kicks at his dad, then slingshots SENTONS! Cover, TWO! Dragon is still in this and Dom is annoyed.

Dom drags Dragon around, and he claws at the mask! The ref reprimands and counts, Dom lets off, but Dom rains down fists! Liv blows a kiss to Dom, and Dom rips Dragon’s shirt away. Dom stomps Dragon, throws the shirt at Rey, then puts Dragon in a corner. Dom whips corner to corner hard, and Dragon falls to the mat! Dom taunts the fans, soaks up more heat, then gives Liv a kiss on the cheek. Dom goes back for Dragon, drags him up, but Dragon fires hands! Dragon runs but Dom YANKS him down by his mask! The ref reprimands but Dom drags Dragon to ropes. Dom ties Dragon’s mask to the ropes!

Raw returns to single picture as Dom stomps away on Dragon! The fans boo and taunt Dom but Dom just tosses his hair and styles his mustache. Dom flexes, fans continue to boo, but Dragon gets free of the ropes. Dragon fires hands, ROCKS Dom, then whips. Dom reverses but Dragon RANAS! Dom tumbles to a corner, Dragon runs up, JUMP KICK! Leg sweep! COMBINACION CABRON! Dragon runs in to HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! Cover, TWO! Dom survives but LWO coaches Dragon. Dragon lifts Dom, Dom slips out of the bomb but Dragon BOOTS! Dragon runs, into a scoop, MICHINOKU DRIVER! Cover, TWO!!

The fans boo but Liv coaches Dom. Dom runs up, Dragon dodges to roll him, TWO! DEADLIFT LIGER BOMB! Cover, TWO!! Dom survives and goes to a corner. Dragon runs in, Dom puts him on the apron, but Dragon smacks and KICKS Dom off buckles! Dragon goes up and up, but Dom ROCKS him first! Dom CHOPS, climbs, and brings Dragon up. But Dragon trips Dom up to ROCK him into a Tree of Woe! Then WOE STOMPS!! Liv panics, Carlito coaches Dom but Dragon drags Dom into a cover, ROPEBREAK by JD! The fans boo as The Irish Ace saves Dom. Rey gets in JD’s face, and DECKS him!

Finn and the rest brawl with The LWO! Wilde goes up to CANNONBALL! The ref calls for reinforcements, more refs rush out and get these groups to the back! But Liv CHOP BLOCKS Dragon! Dragon ends up on ropes, Dom 619s!! Dom goes up, FROG SPLASH! Cover, Dom wins!

Winner: Dominik Mysterio, by pinfall

LWO knew how Judgment Day p lays the game and they still couldn’t stop them! Now Dom & Liv kick Dragon out of the ring! Dom & Liv celebrate, will they keep this celebration going all the way through Bad Blood?

Jade & Bianca are backstage.

Jade says they did what they said they were gonna do, they’re feeling good. But then Iyo Sky & Kairi Sane walk over. Bianca asks Kairi if she’s good. The giant bandage over her eye says otherwise. Jade asks if there’s a problem. Iyo says they wanted to say nice work out there. But uh, don’t get used to having those tag titles. Okay, no touchy. Bye. DMG CTRL still wants the gold, when and where will they get their chance?

WWE pays tribute to the Gaudreau Brothers.

Johnny & Matthew were tragically killed in a car accident caused by a drunk driver. The outside of Scotia Bank Arena is covered in loving tributes to #JohnnyHockey and his brother. WWE stands with the Gaudreau Family in the face of this travesty.

Six Woman Tag: Pure Fusion Collective VS Zelina Vega, Lyra Valkyria & ???

Sonya Deville, Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark have been bullying just about everyone they can on Raw, but they still have a ways to go if they want to take over. Will that journey continue here tonight? Or will The Morrigan’s mystery woman be just the thing to stop PFC?

Raw returns as La Muneca makes her entrance, followed by Lyra. But then Sonya says cut the music, enough of this. She knows the entrance is a big deal. The fans boo but she says shut up! This is a joke! Why are these two even out here? They’ve tried and failed over and over. What’ll be different this week? Because they have a mystery partner? Ooh~! Sonya will give us a doze of reality: Their partner suffers the same fate as them, and that’s being destroyed by PFC. But if there is even anyone back there, if they wanna step up, then shoot your shot. It’s NATTY! The fans fire up as the Queen of Harts makes her return to Raw!

The teams sort out and Zoey starts against Zelina. They circle, tie up, and Zoey whips. Zelina RANAS and Zoey tumbles away! Zoey BOOTS Zelina, tags Sonya, then she trips up Zelina. Sonya DUMPS Zelina out, then tags Shayna. Shayna KICKS Zelina down, then tags Zoey in. Zoey PLANCHAS and down goes Zelina! PFC stand together, finger guns up, and fans boo as Raw goes picture in picture.

Zoey hears the ref counting so she steps in to step back out, and she fetches Zelina. Zoey puts Zelina in, storms up and HIP DROPS! Zelina writhes but Zoey brings her up.

Zelina fires off on Shayna, TOSSES her, and Raw returns to single picture. Zoey CLUBS Zelina, snap suplexes, and taunts the fans. Zoey drags Zelina up, snap suplexes again, then TOSSES Zelina out! Tag to Shayna, and she storms over to Zelina for another Electric Chair Lift. The fans boo, but Zelina slips free, wheelbarrow and arm-drag into the apron! Zelina crawls in, Sonya shoves Shayna! Zoey tags, but Zelina tags Natty! The fans fire up as Natty DECKS Zoey again and again!

Natty BLASTS Sonya, fires hands on Zoey, then DECKS her again! The fans fire up as Natty whips Zoey to a corner. Natty runs up, Zoey dodges, but Natty dodges Zoey! Zoey hits buckles, Natty gives her a rebound sit-down! Natty steps on Zoey, then comes back to basement dropkick! The fans fire up as Zoey takes a swing, but Natty catches her!

Winners: Zelina Vega, Lyra Valkyria & Natalya, by submission

The Queen of Harts was just the thing they needed for a winning hand! Will The BOAT be the one to sink Sonya’s hopes of taking over the WWE?

Natty, Lyra & Zelina regroup backstage.

They had an amazing match! It was fun, surreal, and a long time coming. Uncle Bret says hey to Natty, and Natty says this is Hart Country. This was a great Natty moment, that is for sure. They hug it out, will this be a much needed revitalization for The Queen of Harts?

Drew McIntyre is here!

The fans boo as the Scottish Terminator slowly makes his way out, a big smile on his face. He goes to the ring, has his pyro, and then grabs a mic. The fans chant “CM PUNK! CM PUNK!” at McIntyre, but he says, “Don’t stop! C’mon, louder! Louder! Chant his name! I’ll join in!” McIntyre sarcastically starts, but the fans chant after all. McIntyre says now whenever that name is chanted, it isn’t about nostalgia, it doesn’t upset him. Whenever the fans chant “C M PUNK!” it is now in memory of him. Did you see what happened last week? Not the violence, that was poetic. Did you hear what Punk had to say?

Punk came out here, stood in this ring, said he beat McIntyre in a Strap Match, touched the corners, and is done with McIntyre so now he can go for the world title. Blah blah blah. Let’s recap: Punk has screwed McIntyre out of that title three times this year! McIntyre pinned Punk at SummerSlam. And just because Punk’s the Best in the World at touching four corners in a row, he’s suddenly done and moving on? “I don’t think so, ya arrogant p*ick!!” The fans still chant for Punk but McIntyre says he knows everyone expects him to gloat about what he did, maybe use some zingers, but McIntyre’s been talking about Punk since January.

McIntyre has made Punk a bigger star, and he has to live with that fact. And he can, because he is the one that just ended Punk’s career. Okay, enough of the past! On to the future! What matters around here is HIM, Drew McIntyre! So what’s first on the agenda? The World Heavyweight Championship that he’s been cheated out of multiple times? For sure. But also, his first Hollywood movie comes out! The Killer’s Game, starring McIntyre and Dave Batista! Check that out in theaters! Things are almost perfect, but there is one loose end. McIntyre’s afraid he’s got some bad news, Wade! What…?

McIntyre looks at Wade Barrett on commentary, and he says he doesn’t have many friends left in this world, let alone this company. These two go back a couple decades. They came to this country together, lived together, got arrested together! Wade’s the only voice of reason for McIntyre when Michael Cole lied to everyone about how Punk was hurting this company! So why, when it was time for McIntyre to end Punk, did Wade step in his way!? McIntyre isn’t angry with Wade, he’s just disappointed. The fans boo but now McIntyre steps outside the ring. McIntyre says if Wade does something like that again, McIntyre won’t be disappointed, he will be angry, and do something about it.

Wade steps off commentary and the fans fire up! But then Adam Pearce appears to say enough already. McIntyre, have you lost the plot so bad that now it’s no longer about Punk, but about his friends? Wade Barrett, the only one who has kept McIntyre above water? No, McIntyre doesn’t wanna do that, Wade doesn’t wanna do that. Let’s just move on. Pearce wants McIntyre to step into the ring because he has information he needs to hear. McIntyre says he was talking with his friend, man to man. Pearce is not a friend, he’s a corporate stooge who Punk kisses up top! But if he has something to say, say it quick.

Pearce says he heard what McIntyre had to say about Punk. But he just heard from Punk today. And Pearce can assure us, as much as McIntyre thinks he ended Punk, Punk is NOT done. Punk is not done with McIntyre! McIntyre almost laughs at that. McIntyre does NOT believe that. There is not a chance after last week that Punk wants another piece of McIntyre. But if we’re playing hypotheticals, let’s play. Who wants to see McIntyre VS Punk one more time? The fans here sure do! McIntyre says IF that is all true, then Pearce is signing Punk’s death certificate. Well either way, this has to end.

After the Strap Match, Punk did think this was over, as did Pearce. But then last week, McIntyre loses his mind and we’re back in it. The fight has to end, and it ends at Bad Blood. Yeah, McIntyre VS Punk, One Last Time. And Pearce assures us of this, when it is over, he will find peace. Y’know why? Because Pearce will know it is truly over. And it will be over because in Atlanta, Georgia, Bad Blood, it is McIntyre VS Punk, HELL IN A CELL!! The fans are thunderous for that! McIntyre is seething, but will he be the one going through hell at the hands of his most hated enemy?

The Miz is talking to… Karrion Kross?!

Mr. Doomsday tells the Hollywood A-Lister that right now, Miz is in a rut. It happens to everyone! Miz just needs someone to help him take a step out of it. But Xavier Woods steps in and asks what Kross’ Kurt is here. His what? What is his angle? Oh, ha, clever. But Kross says no angle. Just good luck with Kofi. Kross leaves, and Woods hopes Miz isn’t actually listening to Kross. Kross tried this with New Day, Kross is no one’s friend. Does Woods really think Miz doesn’t get it? Miz invented this move. But Kross isn’t wrong. Miz is in a rut, and everyone thinks he’s just gonna get crushed by Bronson Reed!

Woods says no, everyone knows Miz is great. He defended the WWE Championship against John Cena at WrestleMania! Yeah, but look where he is now! Miz appreciates Woods stepping up, but he wouldn’t understand. Miz leaves, Kofi steps in and asks “Bret” why Miz is rocking the boo-boo face. Woods reveals it is him behind the sunglasses, and Kofi says wazzup! But Woods says Miz is just mad that Bronson about to dig up in ’em. Yeah, you hate to see it. But Kofi loves the cosplay. And also, great DragonCon stuff from Woods. But while Woods was there, Kofi was here doing work, and guess what? They got a shot at the tag titles next week!

The New Day is fired up, and Woods says he thought they were each trying for singles gold, but hey, tag titles is more money in their pockets! And it means they walk into their tenth anniversary this November as… Sunglasses back on… The Best There Is, The Best There Was, and The Best There Ever Will Be! YEAH~! Will Kofi & Woods deck out their decade together with those W, W, E, World, Tag, Team, CHAMPIONSHIPS~?

Finn Balor VS Rey Mysterio!

We saw Judgment Day pick a fight with LWO, and then they cheated Dragon Lee, so now, Adam Pearce has made this a truly 1v1 match, as he has put a BAN on everyone else at ringside! Will The Prince bow to the King of Lucha? Or will Finn still find a way to steal one from the Hall of Famer?

Raw returns as Finn makes his entrance. The bell rings, the two tie up, and Finn throws knees and elbows! Finn wrenches, wristlocks, but Rey uses ropes to flip through. Rey breaks free, KICKS then fires off hands. Rey whips, Finn reverses but Rey goes up and over. Rey keeps moving, he ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Finn still ELBOWS him down! Finn stalks Rey to a corner, fires body shots, then he CHOPS! The fans “WOO~!” and Finn CHOKES Rey on ropes. The ref counts, Finn lets off, and Rey sputters to a corner. Finn snapmares Rey, then stomps away at the ropes! The ref counts, Finn stomps and stomps and stomps, but lets off at 4.

Finn paces, soaks up heat, then he drags Rey up. Rey blocks to fire hands back! Finn RAMS Rey into a corner, RAMS him again and again, then lets off as the ref counts. The ref reprimands Finn, but the fans rally up. Finn fires body shots on Rey, then climbs up to rain down fists! Rey slips out to TRIP Finn! Rey runs to tilt-o-whirl and RANA! Finn staggers up, Rey DROPKICKS him out of the ring! Rey then PLANCHAS and down goes Finn! The fan fire up for Rey, and Raw goes to break.

Raw returns again and Finn grinds Rey down with a chinlock. Rey endures, fights up, and fires body shots. Finn CLUBS Rey, whips, but Rey KICKS back! Finn runs up but Rey TOSSES him out, then GAMANGIRIS! Finn falls, Rey builds speed, and fans fire up for the SLIDING SPLASH! Finn sputters but Rey also needs to catch his breath. The fans rally, Rey stands and storms up on Finn. Rey puts Finn in the ring, climbs up a corner, and Rey FLYING SEATED SENTONS! Rey keeps moving, he ddoges Finn to springboard CROSSBODY! Finn is on the ropes, 619to the gut! Rey then RANAS Finn, and he redials! 619 TO THE – NO, Finn blocks!

Finn drags Rey into ropes, to CATAPULT GUILLOTINE! Rey sputters and flops to the apron! Fans boo but Finn traps Rey in the ropes, BOSTON CRAB! The ref counts, Finn refuses to let go! The ref hits 5, THAT’S IT! DISQUALIFICATION!

Winner: Rey Mysterio, by disqualification

The fans boo but Finn doesn’t care! Finn just wants to tear Rey apart! Rey writhes, Finn soaks up heat, but then Finn goes back for Rey on the apron! Finn grins, runs in, and SHOTGUNS Rey into a post! Rey flops to the floor, the ref reprimands, but Finn tells him to shut up. More refs show up, they tell Finn to leave, so Finn obliges. Finn soaks up all the heat from the Calgary Flames fans, but then he sees Rey sit up. So Finn runs down the ramp to SHOTGUN Rey into the apron! The fans boo more but Finn says he warned Rey this was a mistake to pick a fight with him. But will Finn pay for this and then some in Atlanta at Bad Blood?

Backstage interview with Ilja Dragunov.

Jackie is with The Czar, and she says he is just moments away from tonight’s Fatal 4 Way main event. This is one of the biggest opportunities he’s had since coming to Raw, what is his mindset? Dragunov says he almost missed this chance because of Judgment Day. But thanks to Rhea & Damian, he got a fair shot and advanced. Now, Dragunov faces Jey Uso, Braun Strowman AND Pete Dunne. Dragunov needs to dig deep just to survive. But that is not his only goal. He wants the prize at the end of this tournament! He wants that chance to compete for the WWE Intercontinental Championship, and the chance to settle things with Bron Breakker,

But speaking of, Bron steps in now, as he has done with the others. Bron says there is no unfinished business. He already beat Dragunov. But if Dragunov wants, he can win tonight, and Bron will just beat him again. But then in steps Jey Uso! Main Event Jey looks at Bron, he looks at Dragunov, then smiles as he passes by. “Main Event Jey is now in your city! Hey, Uce, please, please, please hit my music! Uh, uh, yeah, YEET!” The fans fire up as Jey passes from gorilla position to the stage, will Jey win this main event to then get another shot at that Intercontinental Championship?

Judgment Day regroups backstage.

Finn says he hopes everyone is watching. Tonight was a message from them to everyone in the locker room that anyone can get it at any time! LWO? Terror Twins? Not so terrible now, huh? Liv says what happened tonight won’t even come close to what happens at Bad Blood. Life as Rhea knew it is over. She will never lay a finger on Dom or the Women’s World Championship ever again. JD says don’t think they forgot The New Day, either. The tag division belongs to Judgment Day now. Cool?

WWE Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender’s Fatal 4 Way: Jey Uso VS Pete Dunne VS Ilja Dragunov VS Braun Strowman!

Raw returns and The Mad Dragon makes his entrance, followed by The Bruiserweight’s. That leaves #OneBigSOB to make his entrance last, but certainly not least! The bell rings and Dunne BLASTS Jey! Dragunov fires CHOPS on Braun, but Braun HEADBUTTS him down! Dunne fires hands but Jey RAMS Dunne into a corner, UPPERCUTS him, and then sees Braun. Braun UPPERCUTS Jey!

All of Calgary is on their feet as they “YEET! YEET! YEET!” If Jey found a way to win this Fatal 4 Way, what is there to stop him from finally being a singles champion? Bron Breakker steps into the ring, and he stares Jey down, title in hand. Bron already said no one in Jey’s family has ever whooped someone in Bron’s family, and Jey won’t be the first. Will Jey prove Bron wrong and YEET that title right off him?

My Thoughts:

An awesome Raw here to not only kick off this “WWE Week” which will also be the rest of September, but to also get things going towards Bad Blood. Great commercial free first hour, great use of picture in picture, great Mixed 8 Person Street Fight to open. I figured Wyatt 6 would win, and with Bo/Howdy getting involved to tip the scales back their way. This probably doesn’t end here, though, I feel like Bo and Gable have to have one more 1v1 to top this off. I still hope for a Firefly Funhouse match to give a retrospective on what Gable’s done in his career, the good and the bad, in hopes of restoring Gable to who he once was, or something like that.

Great Women’s Tag title match tonight, and great win for Jade & Bianca to end things with Alba & Isla. Good encounter with Iyo & Kairi backstage to tease that feud next, but as I said for SmackDown, we also need SmackDown to get their Women’s Tag Division going, hopefully that starts this week. The Six Woman Tag was really good, and of course Natty was the mystery woman, that was a given even last week when Lyra suggested the idea. Not sure where this story will go for Natty, but she’s always been a great talent in the ring, so there’s no worries on that end.

Great stuff all over with Judgment Day and LWO tonight. Good promo to hype up Dom VS Dragon and give us Finn VS Rey. Naturally, there was cheating through overbooking in Dom VS Dragon, and of course Judgment Day beat down Rhea & Priest tonight so that they aren’t continuously hapless against The Terror Twins. Great match from Finn VS Rey, and I like that Finn didn’t care about the loss, he’s beyond that right now because he is just angry that his Judgment Day isn’t getting the respect it deserves. Finn VS Priest will be great stuff, as will Liv VS Rhea, but just like tonight, those matches will probably split 50-50. If Rhea wins the belt back, then Finn gets one on Priest, and then vice-versa should she lose to Liv.

Good promo from Miz with Kross and New Day. Kross is gonna let New Day fall apart on their own now, so he’s moved on to Awesome Truth. New Day VS Judgment Day for the tag titles will be a great match, but I would think Judgment Day cheats to retain, maybe being the last straw for Woods and Kofi. Though at the same time, Woods mentioned the anniversary of New Day, maybe they find a way to keep this going until then so that on the Raw they celebrate ten years, THAT is when someone turns on the other, probably Woods on Kofi. Odyssey Jones is sadly out of the picture, that’s a whole can of worms to talk about, but now things will be even. Though, I would love if Big E returns to TV for this story. Big E could try and keep things from falling apart, only to fail.

Great stuff with McIntyre’s story tonight. He claims he’s the one done with Punk now, but that anger was clearly still there and he was gonna lash out against Wade Barrett over last week, that’s an intriguing new wrinkle. But I did appreciate that he was using the four corners aspect of their Strap Match as the excuse, that’s just what I figured they’d do. And Pearce bringing the “bad news” of Punk’s return was good stuff. Many fans were sensing this needed Hell in a Cell to finish it, and here we are. It feels like Punk finds a way to win that, and then Punk really does move on towards the World Heavyweight Championship, perhaps sending McIntyre into such a spiral that he has to go to SmackDown so he can get away from Punk.

Good stuff with Bret Hart here tonight, including the news of Survivor Series WarGames in Vancouver this year. Bret was of course cuing up Sami Zayn with his talk of “Canadian champions,” but Gunther coming out first to give backhanded compliments to Bret was also a good reason for Sami to show up. Sami had his tribute to Johnny & Michael Gaudreau, and WWE also had a great segment of their own to connect the WWE community with the hockey community, because in the end, we’re all a human community, and such a tragedy as losing those two just really hurts. As for Sami and Gunther, Gunther continues to reject Sami’s challenge, but you know something is going to force his hand even as soon as next week, and Bad Blood will see these two run it back from Mania.

And then just awesome stuff with the Fatal 4 Way tonight. Good promos from everyone with Bron Breakker, teasing that any of them could be the guy. Well, not Dunne, because Sheamus was right after his head there. Dunne might even need to worry about Sheamus showing up on NXT tomorrow night to make sure he loses the Last Man Standing. But clearly, Sheamus VS Dunne in the revival of the Donnybrook stipulation should really happen. Bronson Reed showing up to screw Strowman was also a great detail, it was the only thing that was gonna stop Strowman anyway. And in the end, we YEET as Jey wins out and gets his shot at Bron. That match should probably be saved for Bad Blood, with great build between these two from here on.

My Score: 9/10
