PLAY BY PLAY
The Vision is here!
The fans boo even as Paul Heyman starts his introductions, “My name is Paul Heyman. His name is Austin Theory. He is the most famous personality on the face of the planet today, Logan Paul. This is where someone is supposed to come out and say, ‘Welcome to Monday Night Raw!’ This is where they’re supposed to say, ‘Live from Indianapolis, Indiana!'” The fans cheer that, but Heyman says, “I hate to piss on everyone’s parade, but ‘scuse me while I whip this out. We are here tonight to talk about Seth… Freakin’… Rollins!” The fans cheer that name, and they even start singing, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!”
Heyman says he hates that freakin’ song! He also hates Seth Freakin’ Rollins! Rollins stole the credit for cofounding The Vision from Heyman, Rollins is not worthy of that credit. Rollins stole the credit for cofounding The Shield, and he isn’t worthy of that. That’s not really Heyman’s problem anymore, because Heyman’s problem is Rollins stealing the Elimination Chamber, and therefore stole the main event of WrestleMania from Logan Paul. The fans boo Logan, but Heyman says, “Ladies and gentlemen, Seth Rollins thieves oxygen from every single human being on the face of this planet that’s worthy of living, and ‘Mr. Lynch’ is not one of them!
“And we are going to do something about that. Because the next time Seth Rollins is in a WWE ring, we are going to stomp his ass out!” The fans boo again, but Heyman says that is not a prediction, that’s not even a spoiler! That is a personal guarantee from the three of them in The Vision! Theory is then handed the mic, and fans boo as he says, “Here’s my theory. and let’s see if all you idiots can follow it. Seth Freakin’ Rollins, you and I, we go way back. But your ass ain’t going forward! Especially after what you did-” The fans chant, “You Suck!” and Logan tells them to shut up. Theory says no, they’ve got it all wrong! Rollins ain’t in the ring now, so you can’t chant that.
But for what Rollins did to Logan at Chamber, why not tell him yourself? Logan takes the mic to call Rollins a scumbag! Logan eliminated THREE men in the Chamber before Rollins stole the victory from him! The last person to do that was BROCK LESNAR! That is the kind of company Logan keeps! Now, the rest of this show is not happening until Rollins answers- Adam Pearce says we get it, we get it! The Vision’s upset, so let’s hold the show hostage. Pretty sure they were the ones who hurt Jey Uso on Friday, right? But let’s move on because no one holds the show hostage. Heyman asks if they just got accused of hurting Uso again.
Everyone needs to get it through their thick skulls, they had nothing to do with Jey Uso. But they can plead guilty in advance for what they will do to SETH FREAKIN’ ROLLINS! Heyman literally throws his mic but Pearce says since he mentioned the guy, Pearce needs to have a conversation with Rollins, too. But with The Vision out here, Pearce can’t have that conversation, because Rollins is bound to do something stupid, which is why he has security out here already. Seth Rollins should be left to Pearce because he is not medically cleared to compete. Let Pearce carry on- WAIT, a masked man jumps the barriers! But then he runs off!
Everyone wonders if that was really Rollins or another decoy? Wait, ANOTHER masked man slides in! Then he slides out! Logan chases that guy, leaving it to a third guy to distract Theory! Now Heyman’s all alone! He goes to the apron, but then a FOURTH masked man appears! Is this Rollins? Heyman pleads with the man, but a FIFTH masked man appears, armed with a chair! And that one IS Rollins! The Visionary steps into the ring, and he CRACKS Heyman in the back with the chair!! The fans go nuts as Rollins gets back at the backstabber! Rollins lines up a shot, the fans sing, WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” and Rollins CURB STOMPS Heyman down!!
The fans cheer as Rollins stands over The Oracle. Fans sing, some even chant, “One More Time!” Rollins leaves it at this, if only for now. The Architect crafted a masterful plan, leaving Heyman to the medics. When and where will Rollins handle Logan and Theory?
Raw returns as Heyman is loaded into an ambulance.
The Oracle has a bloodied nose from that curb stomp, Theory and Logan storm in and asks if he’s okay, but the medics tell them to calm down and back off so they can attend to Heyman. Logan goes to get the car warmed up and Theory tells Heyman it’ll be alright. The ambulance is closed, a car pulls up, and Theory hurries over. But that isn’t Logan in there, that’s JIMMY USO! #BigJim DECKS Theory, then SMACKS him against the ambulance! Jimmy sure thinks The Vision did Jey in! Jimmy TOSSES Theory over road cases, then checks with the ambulance driver, L A Knight! Knight says good job, Jimmy. And don’t worry, Heyman will get the help he needs!
What strange bedfellows with how Rollins, Jimmy, and Knight all hate Heyman’s Vision. Will nothing stop them from tearing down what Rollins built?

The Kabuki Warriors talk backstage.
The Empress of Tomorrow is upset with The Pirate Princess over losing not just on Friday against Tiffany Stratton, but in her qualifier for the Chamber! Kairi Sane should’ve been in there to help her win! Kairi wants to speak up but Asuka bullies her. What is it, Kairi?! Kairi brings up that last week, Asuka said Kairi did good… Huh!? You did good?! What are you, stupid?! Asuka shakes Kairi around while she berates her, then she storms off. AJ Lee steps in and asks if Kairi’s okay. Kairi, blink twice if you need help. Kairi is in a daze until Asuka shouts for her to follow.
That abusive relationship aside, AJ Lee heads to gorilla. What will the NEW Women’s Intercontinental Champion have to say about her victory in Chicago? We find out, after the break.
AJ Lee heads to the ring!
Raw returns as she makes her entrance, and the fans cheer as she skips around the ring holding up the belt. AJ carefully carries it like her baby as she steps into the ring, then she has it on her shoulder while she grabs a mic. The fans cheer again, and AJ says, “I’m not entirely sure how we got here. I know that I came back to WWE purely just to snatch the pretty hair from Becky’s big ass head. And somehow, I ended up snatching her title. But I gotta be real, I didn’t know. I didn’t know if I could still go.” The fans chant, “You Deserve It!” AJ says that right there, the fans, they knew she could still go.
AJ knew the fans believed in her, they’ve had her back for a decade. They remembered her when some wished they would forget. And they made her believe she could still fight at her very best. And that is exactly what Becky is, she is the best of the best. But AJ beat her. Becky did give AJ the fight of her life, and she has the scars to prove it, AJ proved to herself that she could still be championship material. The fans cheer again, and AJ says she is still exactly who she thinks she is. But now that “Becky Boo Boo” is behind her, WrestleMania is ahead of her. AJ says she won’t wait until then. No, she will be a fighting champion!
The fans like where this is going. AJ says it has been TWELVE LONG YEARS since she last held a title, she won’t take it for granted, and she won’t waste time. So… A couple weeks ago, she kinda mentioned she wanted to get her hands on some women in the locker room. And now that she has this beautiful belt on her shoulder, she knows they wanna get their hands on her. “So ladies, if you think that you are championship material, if you wanna shot at your favorite wrestler’s favorite wrestler, then come at me! Because the next time I stand in this ring, I will be defending the Women’s Intercontinental Championship! So ladies, show me what you got.”
The fans cheer as the challenge has been issued! Who will fight to be at the very front of the line to go after the living legend?
Penta runs across El Grande Americano Original.
EGA Original says hola, Penta. He’s looking good! And he is so excited for Penta’s Intercontinental Championship match with Dominik Mysterio tonight. Bueno suerte! Penta says yes, okay, thanks. But then EGA Original says that just so Penta knows, once Penta wins that title from Dom, EGA is first in line. Penta says EGA knows Penta. Penta has CERO! MIEDO! They fist bump on it and Penta heads out, only for Los Americanos to step in! EGA Original mockingly greets his twin, but Bravo asks how long Original’s gonna keep up this charade! Rayo says this is a fake! Charade?! Not only is this El Grande Americano Original, he is the ONLY El Grande Americano!
EGA Nuevo, in brand new gold and black gear, says Original is a fake! But they will see who is who on March 14th, AAA Reyes de Reyes! Original says why wait? But then Bravo y Rayo step between them. Hiding behind the amigos, huh? Doesn’t matter! It doesn’t matter who it his, he will see uno of them in the ring tonight! AH GRACIAS~! EGA Original heads out, but will he humble whichever hombre chooses to defend EGA Nuevo’s honor?
Liv Morgan speaks.
“Hi, Stephanie. I’m sure you have some questions about last week, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to explain myself. You tried to embarrass me, belittle me, judge me. You thought you knew everything there was to know about me. But you don’t know a thing. You don’t know my struggles, and you don’t know what I had to do to make it to where I am. But one thing you were right about is I am privileged. I’m sorry that I got signed to WWE when I was 20 years old, and you got rejected on your first tryout. I’m sorry that I had the best of the best while you grew up in the mud hut wrestling in flea-infested rings for ten years.
“And do you know why all that stuff happened, Stephanie? Because I am a star! And I don’t dwell on my past like your past seems to be the only thing you know how to talk about. But even despite everything that’s happened so far, I see a little bit of myself in you. You’re talented, you work hard, you are a great champion. So I’m gonna do something for you. At WrestleMania, I’m going to give you the privilege of fighting me. You get to step in the ring with the greatest Royal Rumble winner of all time. You get to step in the ring with the inaugural Crown Jewel Champion, six-time champion, Money in the Bank winner. You get to step in the ring with THE Liv Morgan. And you’ll learn everything you need to know.”
The Judgment Day’s leading lady has spoken, but will La Primera have quite the response for her?
El Grande Americano Original VS Rayo Americano w/ Los Americanos!
Raw returns and it is the Americano in red that has stepped up. The bell rings, they circle and feel things out, then switch up hands in the Test of Strength before they tie up collar ‘n’ elbow. Rayo slips around to waistlock but EGAO wrenches to wristlock. Rayo rolls, kips up, and wrenches back. Rayo wrenches again, but EGAO rolls, bridges, and handsprings. EGAO spins, headlocks, spins again and drop toeholds! EGAO says, “AH GRACIAS~” as he has the armlock. Rayo goes to the ROPEBREAK, and EGAO lets off slowly. Rayo sucker punches him!

Nothing and no one will save you, because tonight it’s only you and me in the ring! And tonight, Penta will make history, because tonight, I become the NEW Intercontinental Champion! Do you know why? Because I am Penta, and I have CERO! MIEDO!”
Judgment Day is in the clubhouse.
Liv & Raquel play darts as Liv tells Raquel not to feel down. She was dominant at Chamber, and she should be challenging for a championship. Raquel says she’s not upset, but Liv suggests Raquel taking AJ Lee up on that challenge. Then Raquel can go to WrestleMania as Women’s Intercontinental Champion. That’s not a bad idea! Dom talks with JD McDonagh, he wants to make sure they’re out there. JD says don’t worry, they’ll be out there. Dom says he’s not worried, he’s just saying. Finn Balor steps in, JD asks how he’s feeling, and Finn says he’s not happy with the result, but he is at peace with how it went down.
Dom says okay, now that Finn’s over losing to Punk, they can focus on Dom’s defense tonight. Can he count on them to be there for him or what? JD says of course Dom can. Finn says he thought they spoke on this. Dom needs to do this on his own. Dom says n-no, that’s not what he meant. He meant more like, will they be out there to celebrate with him? They’re a family, right? Yes, and they will be out there. Right? Finn says yeah, you can count on him. Liv says yay, family! Will The Judgment Day (not) be just fine after tonight?
Rusev interrupts the show!
Raw recaps what Oba Femi did to The Miz on Friday, but The Bulgarian Brute says that’s enough of that! Rusev pushes past commentary to stand on the desk, and he says he is tired listening to everyone about Oba! he is also tired of waiting! He knows Oba can hear him, so hear this! Oba wants this fight, Rusev wants this fight, so why not fight right NOW?! The fans like where this is going! The Lion of Bulgaria, Rusev, calls out The Nigerian Ruler, Oba Femi! And he will not move until Oba shows himself! Go ahead and ask Daddy Pearce if that’s okay or not. But then Oba makes his entrance! Will the Son of Thunder regret calling down the lightning?
Oba steps into the ring, he stares Rusev down, and the fans chant “O~BA!” Oba says Rusev spent all that time talking, so why not get in the ring and make it happen? The fans cheer as Rusev hops off the desk and steps into the ring to join Oba. There’s no ref, though, this might be just a straight up fight! And the hands start flying! The fans fire up as these two just go haymaker for haymaker! Oba gets the edge, then he BODY SHOTS and ROCKS Rusev! Then he UPPERCUTS Rusev, guzels, and CHOKE- NO, Rusev pops free to ROUNDHOUSE!

The fans fire up with Oba as he throws his shirt off! Oba LARIATS Rusev up and outta the ring! Rusev roars, but this lion backs off for now. This was quite the opening salvo, but who will prove they are they true king of the mountain?
Bayley & Lyra Valkyria talk backstage.
The Role Model reviews the rough time they’ve been having: they both lost their qualifiers, meaning they both lost their chance at Elimination Chamber, and now they have nothing for WrestleMania. Bayley feels like she’s stuck at square one. She doesn’t know what The Morrigan is thinking, but she’s at a loss. Lyra says she knows they’ve had bad luck lately, but all she knows is, she can’t sit back and watch Bayley miss another WrestleMania. One way or another, they’ll get Bayley there. AJ Lee is the NEW Women’s Intercontinental Champion and is looking for challengers. So why not let that be Bayley?
Wait, really? Well, yeah! Lyra’s seen like half the women’s division line up in front of Pearce’s office already, so why not Bayley? That could be her ticket to Mania! Hell yeah, dude! They secret handshake, then Lyra ushers Bayley on. Bayley says hold on, wait. She does remember that she cost Lyra her own match with Becky so… Maybe Lyra should go with her? They could both go. Really? Yes! The two go right down the hall, but out steps Iyo Sky. The Genius must have had the same idea… Well, Bayley and Lyra step in, and Lyra already asks “Scrap Daddy” if they can talk. This Road to WrestleMania is getting wilder, but who comes out the other side going after AJ Lee?
Jimmy Uso VS Austin Theory!
#BigJim showed up ready to avenge his brother, and now he’s feeling The Pressure! Will Jimmy YEET Theory for Jey? Or will The Vision be able to refocus by clearing out another obstacle?

Theory dodges the splash, LARIATS, then snapmares to ROLLING ELBOW! The fans boo but Theory snarls as he goes after Jimmy. Theory rains down fists, then tells Jimmy THIS is pressure! Theory SMACKS Jimmy off the mat, then stalks him to ropes. Theory CHOKES Jimmy, rains down fists, but stops as the ref counts.
Theory argues with the ref, shouts at the fans, and tells Jimmy that this is pressure! Jimmy UPPERCUTS right back! And he LARIATS Theory up and out! Then Jimmy DIVES! They hit the desk and down goes Theory! Jimmy SMACKS Theory off the desk, then off the steps! Jimmy shoves Theory to then SUPERKICK him down! The fans fire up while Jimmy refreshes the ring count. Jimmy then clears off the desk! The fans like where this is going, but Theory runs up! Jimmy dodges to SUPERKICK again! Theory flops onto the desk, and Jimmy looks to the corner. The fans cheer as Jimmy climbs! Jimmy aims from the very top, but LOGAN PAUL finally shows up!
Jimmy CROSSBODIES Logan, HAMMERS away on him, but Theory is back! Jimmy TACKLES Theory, but Logan attacks!
Winners: Jimmy Uso, by disqualification
The fans boo but The Vision stomps away! BUT WAIT! JEY IS BACK! The fans cheer the music, but wait! Jey slips in from the crowd side! He hands Jimmy a crutch, and they DOUBLE CRACK The Vision! The fans are thunderous as The Usos DOUBLE CRUTCH LARIAT Logan! Theory flounders around, into the ONE AND DONE! The Usos stand tall, but will this only escalate after everything that’s happened between them and The Vision?
Adam Pearce is on the phone.
The Raw General Manager was hoping a certain someone would be here by now. But yeah, guess that’s not really Nick Aldis’ problem. Pearce will call back when he hears something. Pearce hangs up, turns around, and surprise! Danhausen’s here! Danhausen shakes hands with “Cold Steve Austin” and says he’s happy to be here. Oh, right, the glasses are his disguise! Nice to meet you, “Adam.” Now as we all saw, Danhausen debuted to thunderous applause and cheers, so he has a list of demands. That is to say, it’s a napkin with marker written all over it. Pearce hears Danhausen out.
Danhausen would like a blimp, a 2026 Hall of Fame Induction, a personal assistant, a personal cameraman, one of those HHH-pointing photos, and Danhausen’s face on all the production trucks. So go ahead, take that list. Why is it damp? It fell in the toilet. Pearce drops the “list” and sees Judgment Day passing by. Have they met Danhausen? Dom says they’re in a hurry, his match is next. Yes, but this is an important moment! Meet Danhausen so Pearce can leave. Thank you. Dan says hello Finn, Dom, and… J…? JD already hates this guy. Finn says relax, he’s new. Danhausen likes the title belts, can he have one?
Dom says no, and this is as close as Danhausen will get to them. It is not so nice to meet you, so get lost before something bad happens. Oh, something bad happens to Danhausen? Guess what? You are now… CURSED! W-What? Yeah right. Get a load of this guy. Wait, where’d he go? Is he Batman? Well, those who know Danhausen know he’s always serious when it comes to curses. Will Dom be in for a bad time now that Raw is Very Nice, Very Evil?
On-stage interview with Rhea Ripley.
Indianapolis cheers as Jackie Redmond welcomes out the winner of the Women’s Elimination Chamber! Iyo escorts Rhea out on stage and Jackie congratulates Rhea on winning the Chamber and her trip to Las Vegas. It has been an eventful 48 hours, so how does Rhea feel knowing that the woman she faces at WrestleMania will be Jade Cargill? Rhea says it has been a whirlwind of emotion to say the least. They lost the Women’s Tag Team Championships on SmackDown, and that sucked. It really, really did. Because Iyo has been so many different things to Rhea: Opponent; tag partner; but most importantly, a friend.
Rhea and Iyo hug and the fans cheer. Rhea then says that she just wants to say thanks to Iyo. Thanks for always supporting Rhea and standing by her. And most of all, thanks for pulling her out of a rather dark situation. Iyo says Rhea did the same for her. But now, Rhea won the Chamber, and she showed everyone why Mami is always on top! The fans cheer that, and Iyo says she will be alright on Raw. Rhea can go handle her business on win the WWE Women’s Championship at WrestleMania! Do it! The fans cheer and Rhea thanks Iyo again. Rhea says she will do it. And she’ll do it for Iyo! So hold down Raw for Rhea, because this Friday..
Rhea has the camera come in close so we can see her tell us all that she’ll see Jade Cargill on SmackDown. Then come WrestleMania, Rhea WILL leave the NEW WWE Women’s Champion! The fans cheer that! Rhea and Iyo hug it out one last time, but will Mami’s brutality be able to eradicate The Storm? And as for Iyo, BREAKING NEWS! There will be a Women’s Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender’s GAUNTLET MATCH! Iyo, Bayley, Lyra, Raquel, Asuka, and Ivy Nile will all get their chance, but who survives to head for AJ Lee?
WWE Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio w/ Finn Balor & JD McDonagh VS PENTA!
Speaking of championships, the Dirty Double Champion is finally defending a title here on Raw! Will Dom survive the night to celebrate with Judgment Day? Or will he learn that two belts can’t beat #CeroMiedo?

Dom drags Penta up, reels him in, and gives some Latino Heat before the snap suplex! That’s Uno Amigo, then he hits Dos Amigos!
Dom drags Penta up, gives a little more Latino Heat, but Penta snap suplexes back! The fans cheer while Dom flounders to the corner. Penta rises up, runs in, but into a BOOT! Dom goes up, but Penta GAMANGIRIS! Penta then climbs up to join Dom, but Dom fires body shots! Penta hops down to CHOP! Then he jumps, but into another BOOT! Dom runs up to APRON DDT! The fans boo but Dom pushes Penta into the ring for a cover, TWO! Penta survives and Dom grows frustrated. The fans rally while Dom brings Penta around. Dom slaps Penta, then ROCKS him!

The forearms fly and Penta gets the edge, until Dom kicks low! Dom whips Penta to ropes but Penta KICKS the backdrop away! Then he SUPERKICKS! Penta runs, Dom puts him on the apron, and Dom DECKS Penta! Dom then triangle jumps to PLANCHA! Down goes Penta but Dom also shakes out the arm. The fans rally up as both men rise, and Dom runs in at Penta, CROSSBODY over barriers! Both men are down in the timekeeper’s area while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns once again as Dom has Penta up top. Dom is going after the mask! The fans boo, we’ve seen enough of that already! Penta ELBOWS Dom away, then adjusts position for a CROSSBODY! The fans fire up as Penta keeps moving, tilt-o-whirl RANA! Then a GAMANGIRI in the corner! Penta sits Dom down, headstands, and SWINGING DROPKICKS! Cover, TWO!

Dom dodges and Penta POSTS himself! Penta clutches his shoulder!
The ref checks Penta as he talks about his bad shoulder, and Dom tells JD to get the bell hammer! The fans boo but JD does as told. JD goes to the timekeeper’s area, grabs said hammer, but FINN says no! Finn takes the hammer from JD, Dom is supposed to do this by himself. Dom said so earlier, so let him do it. But then Penta FLIES out onto JD & Finn! The fans cheer while Dom panics! Penta GAMANGIRIS Dom away! Then Penta runs in for the DEST- NO, Dom drop toeholds! Dom runs, 61- NO! Penta ducks the call, and he hits the DESTROYER!! Cover, PENTA WINS!
Winner: Penta, by pinfall (NEW WWE Intercontinental Champion)
Indianapolis erupts as Penta finally takes this title off of Dominik Mysterio! Dom is down to just one title, will Danhausen’s curse affect that one, too?
Raw shares footage from after Elimination Chamber.
It was part of the Post Show on Saturday, after Drew McIntyre screwed Cody Rhodes over in the main event, and Nick Aldis had had enough! Since Drew is so hellbent at keeping Cody from getting another shot at Drew, guess what?! Aldis says for Friday Night SmackDown, it WILL be Drew McIntyre VS Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship! Drew then got in Aldis’ face about that decision, but the champ is the only one to blame on this! Will the Scottish Terminator have to prove he can beat The American Nightmare straight up one more time? Or will Cody be the one facing Randy Orton at WrestleMania?
Roman Reigns is here!
Indianapolis cheers as the OTC steps out on stage, finally ready to make his return appearance. Roman raises his one to the sky and the pyro goes off. Roman then continues to the ring, ready to discuss facing CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship, after the break.
Raw returns once again and Roman raises his one again for the second round of pyro. Roman then puts his jacket aside and grabs a mic. The Tribal Chief tells Indianapolis, “ACKNOWLEDGE ME!” The fans cheer and raise their ones to the sky. But before Roman can say more, CM PUNK makes his entrance! The fans cheer again, and they sing along with Cult of Personality as The Best in the World makes his way down the ramp. Punk high-fives fans along the front row, then steps into the ring to join Roman. Punk gets his own mic, then circles with Roman as the song fades out. Punk smiles as the fans cheer and chant his name.
Punk says, “Why you look so angry, man? Why you mean mugging me? Think of this less as an interruption and more of me feeding that gigantic ego of yours. I’m giving you what you want. I’m acknowledging Roman Reigns.” The fans are torn on that, but Punk says hey, he hopes Roman came here to say or do more than this. They are not wasting that much money on one of his dates just for this, “cuz brother, that coulda been a tweet.” Roman chuckles, and he says, “Did my tweet hurt your feelings, Phil? You seem a little sensitive. You seem like for a champion, you got thin skin.”
Punk says no, the tweet didn’t hurt his feelings. He doesn’t care what people post, he doesn’t get mad and hold grudges about things people say on podcasts. Especially since that tweet was pretty accurate, Punk is tired. Punk has these bags under these eyes, because he knows for the next seven weeks, he has to carry Roman’s BS all the way to Mania. Now bare with him for one second, but is it great to be alive on a Monday night in Indianapolis or what?! The fans cheer that! Punk says they are on THE Road to WrestleMania, this is the first stop, and there’s history here. This is where The Shield debuted, where Punk brought them to the dance!
Roman corrects Punk on that: Punk brought the other two, not Roman. Well, they remember things differently. So maybe Punk didn’t pick Roman. But Roman certainly picked Punk, didn’t he? And now look at them: The main event of WrestleMania in Las Vegas! And if you ask the fans, Punk’s already won. The fans are torn on that, but Punk says last time they were face to face in this ring, Roman said he HATED Punk! Roman hates Punk!? Then Punk has you right where he wants you! Punk made you an emotional lady. Punk’s already in Roman’s head, as empty as it is. Punk’s under Roman’s skin, and he’s here to tell Roman that it is translucent, Punk can see right through you.
Roman does his best to smile through that and says yes, Roman does hate Punk. But this is what Punk is missing: If Punk didn’t have the title, Roman would be indifferent. Punk wouldn’t exist, wouldn’t even be on his radar. Let’s remind everyone real quick: “we“ brought Punk back so that the 30-40 year old virgins still living with their parents would be happy! “We” brought Punk back to sell some merch, to maybe draw the house in Chicago. But not to be champion! No, that’s too much responsibility for Punk, that’s too much power, that’s above his paygrade. They can’t trust Punk! Punk is a liar! He has lied to all the fans, and they all believe in him!
Punk has everyone thinking he is having a good time here, that he’s a locker room leader, that he’s making the towns and running the tours with a smile on his face. Punk can lie on his interviews, he can tweet things out, he can post on Instagram, but “we” know the truth. Every second Punk is b*tching and moment back there, they can’t wait to tell Roman that. And that is why Punk’s not fit to be a champion. This isn’t CM Punk, this is a Punk Ass B*tch. And at Mania, the back-up plan ends! When Roman wins the title, the first thing he does is he’ll put Punk on the retirement tour. They’ll max Punk out, get as much money as they can out of him, and then guess what happens?
Punk is sent down to NXT! Punk will teach the next generation how to do what they do, then send them up to Roman so he can smash each and every one of them! Roman drops his mic and pushes past Punk to leave, but Punk spins Roman around! Punk asks if Roman thinks he can just walk away from Punk?! He thinks they’re done?! Punk’s not, so stand here and listen to everything he’s gotta say! Roman just said a bunch of crap and they gotta get through it all! First off, “We?!” Who is “We?!” Roman’s got some extra Samoan goblins in his pocket Punk can’t see?! Roman is all alone! Roman is alone on his bus, in his room, the cousins aren’t with him and there’s no more Shield.
Hell, Roman doesn’t even have a Wiseman! And yeah, Punk did take him away. Roman IS all alone, and Punk loves moments like this because it just illustrates Roman’s entire career: It is Roman chasing Punk! Punk is the champ! Roman’s in the main event not because he won the Royal Rumble, but because Punk IS the main event! Punk’s on Netflix, this is HIS show! PUNK runs this! And Punk IS in the locker room, hanging out with The Usos while Roman’s all alone. Roman can’t get things done when he’s by himself, can he? Roman hates Punk? Fair enough. Punk doesn’t even care if Roman loved him.
But what he won’t have is Roman disrespecting Punk. Roman’s gonna retire him? Roman’s gonna retire C M PUNK!? Brother, you just made the list! You went from getting beat at Mania to being buried at Mania! And then Roman won’t be all alone anymore, because Punk will bury Roman next to his father. Punk storms off and Roman is speechless! Things are getting very personal with a LOT of time left before WrestleMania. Will this one go off the rails long before we reach Las Vegas?
My Thoughts:
A great Raw to follow Elimination Chamber, and it certainly had a wild start. The Vision promo to “hijack” the show, the many decoys, and then Rollins showing up to once again do the Shield chairshot to the back, all great stuff. Then going right into the ambulance spot with Jimmy and LA Knight getting one over on The Vision was also fun. Jimmy VS Theory was a good match but of course Logan made sure to “ruin” it. This of course brought Jey out, and I suppose we could get Logan & Theory VS Usos for the world tag titles so that The Vision is doing something. There’s still hope that Bron Breakker can be back in time for WrestleMania so he and Rollins can have their own match.
Gunther VS Dragon was off to a great start with that blindside attack, and the intensity carried the whole time. Naturally, Gunther won, but it was a nice touch for Gunther to unmask Dragon and add that to why he had to give up. Gunther is just building Heel heat over and over, but I’m just not sure what he does for Mania. Will he accept the Brock Lesnar open challenge? It feels like that should be the thing. Same goes for El Grande Americano VS El Grande Americano, Mask VS Mask, winner is the rightful El Grande Americano. Of course, there’s also Reyes de Reyes to build their feud, but I can’t be sure either guy gets their shot at Dom.
Good promo from AJ Lee to add to her win from Saturday, but to also put forward the big Intercontinental Championship story. Good promos from Judgment Day and #BayLyra to add to that, but a gauntlet match is quite the surprise. Same for Ivy Nile still being in the mix for that, but I guess she was owed something from all the time with Maxxine and Becky Lynch. It’d be great if Bayley got the match with AJ Lee, but it feels like this might be Raquel’s moment given the Judgment Day story. Liv also had a very good promo to respond to Vaquer, and if Raquel were to win the gauntlet, I could see Liv & Raquel VS Vaquer & AJ in a tag match to help build some heat and momentum.
Very good promo from Asuka & Kairi to get the dysfunction story going again. Very good promo from Rhea and Iyo to officially establish that #RheYo is disbanded for now, as Rhea is looking to move to SmackDown as she challenges Jade for the title. Rusev and Oba having a promo and a brawl was some good stuff, but I feel like they need to decide which brand Oba is signed to already so we can get a proper feud going. It seems Danhausen is already signed to Raw, though, as he gave his list of demands to Pearce. Though that could’ve just been the Danhausen version of the contract offer like Aldis and Pearce did with Oba.
Danhausen “cursing” Dom could probably be used as the reason Dom lost tonight, but obviously it is because Finn kept Dom from cheating. Penta winning the title here is great for him, he really did need something to go right for him. And I suppose we can have Finn VS Dom without a title, and all the more reason the fate of Judgment Day will be on the line. And then of course Roman closed out the show. That was a great promo segment between him and Punk, with some new/different references (Punk wanted Chris Hero, not Roman Reigns, for instance). Roman acting like he has the authority to make Punk an NXT coach is interesting, though, but Punk had a good clap back with Roman not having power or influence since Roman is on his own. Punk’s closing line was a bit intense, though, right?
My Score: 8.9/10

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 3.5.2026
Two title matches tonight! Do they amount to anything?
Coming off the worst show in a few months, but still tolerable, we get a Live show today. Now we know that most TNA shows have audio run by a high school AV club, so there is bound to be muted audio, dumb stuff and mics that aren’t on. So we can only hope the show is good regardless of audio.
I don’t really love two perceivably useless title matches though. Jody Threat is not a threat to anything beyond catering. She’s trash and has no shot against Arianna even if there wasn’t going to be cheating. Plus Nic already has the trophy for a World title shot, so giving him the X Division makes no sense.
Lets see where this goes.

- The System vs The Righteous vs Sinner & Saint vs BDE & Rich Swann: Bear wins via Fire/Thunder Driver – ***

Results:
TNA Knockouts World Championship: Jody Threat vs Arianna Grace (c) w/Stacks
Tessa’s music hits right after Arianna’s and it blended gorgeously. Tessa’s crew looks amazing especially Tessa. So I’m…not upset.
Arianna attacks Jody as soon as the bell rings, Jody does turn it around into Short Arm Lariats in the corner and an Exploder Suplex. But then Dani Luna walks out through the crowd to watch. I do like that the muddied Knockouts title picture is being put on display. Indi Hartwell walks out too. Arianna lays in some trips and knees after Jody gets distracted. Twisting Neckbreaker from Arianna and we see Lei and Xia on the ramp too. The whole Knockouts Division are circling like sharks…it’s cool and all the Knockouts look great.
Jody fires but the crowd doesn’t really care. They aren’t reacting to her, just kinda amusing themselves. Double Knees, Release German into a Michinoku Driver for two. Stacks pulls out Arianna allowing Jody a Dive spot to wipe out Stacks. Arianna and Jody tug of war over the Cobra, Arianna wins the tug of war, kicks Jody in the ribs and Roll-Up retains!
The match was useless because Jody sucks and isn’t a real threat. So it was fine to give Arianna a title defense, but there was no way Jody was winning and this still made her look bad.
The Elegantos walk out, Mr. E is wearing Daisy Dukes. Literally, not figuratively. The only way this dude will be salvageable is if he ends up being Kurt Angle in the ring. They start insulting Mama June who’s in the audience, and they say she should be at a Food Truck. So ODB shows up. The Elegantos continue to talk shit, ODB takes them out, kicks Mr. E in the nards and her with the Mama June cast dump Chilli all over the Elegantos. A dumb stop, but ODB is a TNA Legend and I think she was talking about retiring this year. So it’s always nice to see One Dirty Bitch.
The System vs The Righteous vs Sinner & Saint vs BDE & Rich Swann
BDE starts with one of the loser jabronis, they tag the other in, Rewind Suplex into a tandem Dropkick, but then Rich tags in Bear Bronson takes a Blind Tag, wipes out Rich and BDE, Jabronis do a stupid assisted Dive spot but BDE and Swann get their spot in and then Dutch does his big boy Tope con Hilo. The crowd likes it but I don’t care about the car crash spot.
Dutch and Righteous have some tandem offense, but Bear with another blind tag, Choke Bomb from Bear on Vincent for two. A few more stomps before tagging to Myers and then Vincent starts to fight up but Myers cuts him off. Bear tags back in, tandem Suplex gets reversed into a Double Neckbreaker and the match breaks down a little. Jabronis get laid out by Swanny, Frankensteinering one into the other for two. Nerds double team Swann, but they suck so Rich eventually rolls out of it, BDE tags in, his Oscutter gets caught and simultaneous Lariats for the random tag spot. Vincent tags in, but BDE Small Package gets two. Dutch and Vincent with an Assisted Cutter and everyone else breaks up the pinfall.
Vincent with a DDT/Flatliner combo after the mayhem, Roster Cut and Spear from Myers, Bear with a Fire/Thunder Driver for the win!
Decent enough, the right team won anyway. Jabronis are trash, BDE & Swann are too new and Righteous is in a weird spot while we just saw them get a shot.
Moose and Alisha come out to address things. Moose says The System ain’t family, and shouts out his former Falcons teammates in attendance like John Abraham. Moose is bringing decent intensity, he’s just tripping over a lot of his punchlines.
Elayna Black vs Mara Sade
Collar and elbow tie up, running each other into ropes before Elayna tries to take advantage of the break, Mara turns it around but then Elayna finds a spot to hit her own chop. They’re both throwing a lot of personality and countering the others stuff. It’s basic but not offensive. Elayna dodges a Plancha, but Mara catches herself which is clever, but then Elayna trips her on the apron and she crashes down. So both are showing clever spots. Chop into a Rope Bounce Stomp for a near fall.
Elayna connects with a Fun Splash into the ropes, then kicks Mara in the face multiple times before goading the crowd and peppering in Elbows before a near fall. Elayna gets a Bow and Arrow locked in, with Mara fighting through it. Mara throws a few punches into Lariats, and a Slingblade. Mara is on a roll, Springboard Crossbody from Mara for two. Mara wanted a Double Arm DDT, but it’s blocked, Mara ole’s Elayna’s charge, Dropkicks her to the outside and throws her back in after the Plancha. Missile Dropkick for good measure and Mara is in full control.
Elayna finds an avenue to stop Mara’s offense with a DDT. She powders and grabs a chair. During the referee taking the chair, she uses the knuckles she had hidden, lays out Mara and wins the match.
Honestly okay match, and the BS finish means there’s a chance to get more out of it. They seem to work well together.

Audio issues continue to plague this show and TNA Live events in general. Kaz and Elijah is an okay King’s Speech segment. Elijah does like these mid promo cutaways, which is funny yet hampered because of audio issues. Devolves into Kaz basically just title mogging him, then AJ Francis chucks Home Town Man off the stage into the audience level and Elijah goes to check on him in typical babyface fashion.
TNA X Division Championship: Nic Nemeth w/Ryan vs Leon Slater (c)
Nic with a quick Head and Arm cradle for a near fall and a few quick amateur wrestling spots. Leon tries to fight back, the wrist tape to the face shortcut from Nic, before Leon Dropkicks Nic out of the ring, Dives, rolls Nic back in and Ryan trips up Leon on the way back in so Nic hits the FAMEasser for a near fall. Nic follows up with the Boot Lace Rake and moving into deliberate pacing with shortcuts, thumb to the eye, measure Leon as he stumbles for a Dropkick and another near fall before the commercial kicks in.
Coming back from commercial Leon counters the Irish Whip straight into the turnbuckle and Nic goes crashing. Leon runs the ropes, takes Nic’s Head off, Spiderman Rebound Leg Lariat for a nearfall. Leon goes to the top, Nic hits the ropes to crash Leon and big Implant DDT for a two count. Leon slow to get up, Danger Zone almost, Lethal Injection counter, almost, Nic runs into Leon and Leon catches him with the Blue Thunder Bomb for a two count.
Leon heads back to the buckles, 450 nope, Superkick nope, Rewind Mule nope, FAMEasser, but Leon grabs him, hangs him and Styles Clash. Leon goes to the top, 450 but eats the knees! Nemeth locks in the Rear Naked Choke. Leon turns it into a near fall so Nic has to break it for a second, he tries to reapply but Leon drops back to break the hold. Leon fires up, kicks off Ryan, charges and eats a Superkick! Only a two count though. Nic shoves Leon into the corner, perches him. Wants the Superplex, but Leon counters with an Avalanche Final Cut.
Swanton 450, and Leon retains.
Eric Young attacks Leon after the match, Piledrivers him on the outside and then poses with the title before what is probably the last commercial break of the night since Mike Santana needs to talk.
Santana wants Maclin reinstated, sexy SUIT heel shows up and says “Fuck you, but its a good idea”. So she agrees to reinstate Maclin and then Santino makes the match for Sacrifice. Santana is happy but says it’s on sight, and commentary is flabbergasted because they gave Maclin what he wanted.
Overall Score: 5.5/10
While the title matches had no suspension of disbelief, all the correct people went over. The tag team 4 way was haptic but solid with the correct winner. I don’t like Leon but beating Nic is correct. The Elegantos were a decent joke spot for the Legend + crowd interaction moment. Elijah with a new cutaway interview gimmick could be great if mic’d correctly. Lish cheerleading Moose in some cuckhold ass beating angle is hilariously embarassing for the time we live in. But I would still prefer that over Lish doing the obvious thing by turning on Moose when it gets to Eddie’s turn to get his ass beat.
Lastly, Maclin proves that complaining gets you everything. So hooray for negative reinforcement!
Still an okay show honestly. Decent matches, nothing really dragged the pace down.

Backstage interview with Adam Priest & Tommy Billington.
Lexy Nair is with the Modern British Bulldogs, and she brings up their success as a tag team, as well as their recent success in singles matches. Adam apologizes for interrupting but he wants to talk about that. They have dominated in tag matches and singles matches, but Tommy had Jay Lethal squirming and ready to tap. But of course, The Swirl comes out to screw Tommy over. And they will handle that business, but tonight, they’re back in tag action against The Workhorsemen. And the thing is, those guys taught Adam everything he knows, yet they come up short against Adam Priest. Now, he’s pretty sure Tommy has words for Jay Lethal.
Tommy says that’s right. He tells Lethal that Lethal might think they have unfinished business, but no, they don’t. Tommy treated Lethal like a brother, Lethal was a mentor to him, watched his back when no one else did. But the thing is, once Tommy & Adam are down with the Workhorsemen, they go after Lethal. Either it’s Tommy or Adam, but they will end this with Lethal! So watch your back! Adam thanks Lexy and the Bulldogs head out. Will they make JD Drake & Anthony Henry an example of this fury that lies within?
Adam Priest & Tommy Billington VS The Workhorsemen!

Winners: Adam Priest & Tommy Billington, by pinfall
The Bulldogs pull victory from the jaws of defeat! They keep on winning as a team, but will they be able to bring down The Swirl and the Franchise Player?
Athena is backstage.
The Fallen Goddess smiles as Billie Starkz is up to something just around the corner, but then she spots the cameraman. “Oh, snap! Come here! Let’s go!” Athena pulls the cameraman into the room, and Billie has finished beating up Deonna Purrazzo! Athena tells Maya World that well, her petty is stronger than 50 Cent. She doesn’t take losses lightly. And not only did Maya “betray” Athena, but she threw her hat in with this hussy instead of her “Minion Mother” and “Minion Sisters.” This is a lesson: You mess with Athena, you embarrass her, and she claps back twice as hard! But sweet, sweet Pure Champion Deonna, your time is coming to an end!
Because Billie is not gonna disappoint Athena again. She will make history again as she becomes the first woman to have held ROH Women’s TV AND ROH Women’s Pure Championship. And this isn’t personal, but just know this is Athena’s show, and Deonna is a side character. Athena & Billie leave Deonna down and out, but will they reign over ROH no matter what it takes? Or will they regret talking down to Maya and the Virtuosa?
La Faccion Ingobernable speaks.
Sammy Guevara hushes everyone before he says, “Everybody’s Favorite Pillar is about to talk. Sammy Guevara & Beast Mortos have been an el fuego, baby! And that means ‘fire’ in Spanish. We have been undefeated as a tag team. Personally, I believe we are one of the greatest tag teams to walk the face of this earth. Me personally, I’m on my THIRD consecutive reign as ROH Tag Team Champion, without ever losing it! Back-to-back-to-back, never before seen in professional wrestling! But now Tony Khan, he told us we are forced, contractually obligated, to go and defend these titles.
“So here’s an open challenge! To any former world champions, former world tag team champions! Whether it’s this week, next week, the week after, it doesn’t matter, because the result is always gonna be the same. And after we kick your ass, don’t try to sue us, because this man is a shoot lawyer! So if you need a lawyer, call 1-800…” Mortos adds, “ROOOAR~! See you in court, hahaha!” Sammy says step up, or get stepped on! LFI is infinitely confident, but will they still be tranquilo once someone answers the call?
Four Leaf Corner Survival #1 Contender’s Match: Shane Taylor VS Lee Johnson VS AR Fox VS Matt Menard!

It was quite the fight, but the fighting isn’t over! The ref brings the lucky prize box to Fox, and it’s time to see what gold is at the end of the rainbow. Fox brings out the paper, and it reads… INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!? The Rainmaker is here on ROH, and he’s ready to defend his title! Will Fox be ready to bring down one of the best in the world today? Or will Okada make it rain in Jacksonville?

But Okada DROPKICKS Fox! Then ripcord and RAINMAKER!! Cover, Okada wins!
Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (still AEW International Champion)
Okada indeed made it rain, washing away Fox’s dream of holding gold. But will Okada have this same luck when he faces someone at 100%? Or will nothing stop the Don Callis Family from running both AEW and ROH?
My Thoughts:
A great ROH here to begin their new studio show era. The crowd wasn’t the biggest, but I feel like ROH didn’t advertise very well. That is to say, AEW didn’t help ROH advertise this change, no one officially announced it, it just happened. Just another reason TK needs people helping him with everything. Also, can they not do a FULL two hours? We need to keep it at 90 minutes max, but more preferably an hour on average. Two hours should be reserved for “special episodes,” which this did fall under.
Anyway, very good matches all over, great showings for everyone. Perse of course beat Leon, and that CMLL Women’s World Championship match with Mercedes Mone will be great, but I can’t be sure of Perse’s chances. Sidney Akeem continues to do creative, innovative things in the ring, he and CLØN need to have a match just to break the minds of everyone watching. The ROH Tag Division is clearly growing stronger, even if it is maybe quantity over quality. Top Flight gets a great win off GYV, and their interaction with “Paid In Full” clearly teases a match there. Bill & Keith of course won, but I’m not even sure that new name makes sense.
Very good promo from Adam & Tommy to call out “The Lethal Twist,” and they got a very good match and very good win over The Workhorsemen. Good to see Juice Robinson is cleared for action, he and Austin Gunn got a good win off MXM. Very good showing for Zayda against Mina but Zayda has now lost to both Love Bombs. The promo from Good stuff from Lacey VS Robyn, with a very good win for Lacey. I forget all of who have lost Proving Grounds to Red Velvet but I wouldn’t mind seeing Lacey battle Red Velvet real quick.
Athena, Billie and Deonna was good, and it’s about time they officially declared Deonna VS Billie. Athena calling out Maya World again is good, but given they’re doing a Proving Ground first, I feel like they could give Maya that win, and then she ultimately loses in the title match. Athena hasn’t lost any singles match, even a Proving Ground match, in the entire three years she’s been champion, so at least give Maya that achievement.
And great stuff with the “double main event.” I’m still not much for “Four Corners” where you tag in and stuff, just give us a flat out Fatal 4 Way where everyone’s active at once. It turned into that before Menard was eliminated anyway. But Fox winning out was great, he’s been needing wins beyond the “money prize” matches. Okada being the “random” champion was awesome, definitely unexpected. But of course Okada won, Fox went through a very tough match just before that, and also he’s Okada. Fox needs to feud with Nick Wayne now that Nick is back, and Fox should take the TV title off him. Nick had that title the entire time he was injured, TK didn’t bother making an interim title for it like he did the women’s title, so time to get a new champ.
