Raw Deal - Raw recap for October 23, 2017

General Manager Kurt Angle shows up to start tonight's show. Kurt Angle says every story has a beginning, middle and end. Last night, he wrote a new chapter. He didn't think it would get better after being inducted into the Hall of Fame, but last night was a dream come true. But that was last night, and now it is on to the future, which is Survivor Series. Once again, it will be Raw vs. SmackDown Live like last year. Alexa Bliss will take on Natalya, The Miz will take on Baron Corbin, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose will take on The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso), and Jinder Mahal will take on Brock Lesnar. There will also be two traditional Survivor Series matches - one for the men, one for the women. He promises to make sure his show comes out as the dominant show in WWE. Suddenly, The Miz shows up with Curtis Axel, Cesaro and Sheamus. The Miz says he is sick of hearing Angle's voice, and says Raw is his show. He says that Angle did not save the show last night, and says he should have made Dean and Seth fight five-on-two. The Miz goes on to say that Angle abused his power to have one more taste of the spotlight, and that it is not about him. He says Angle does not belong in a ring or a General Manager position, and should resign. Angle says that won't happen, and he is heading back to the back. Miz says he's not going anywhere, and his team surrounds the ring. Suddenly, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins show up from out of the crowd. The Miz and company immediately back off. Miz accuses Seth and Dean of "sucking up to management," and says the odds are not in their favor once again. Angle tells him not to be so sure. He puts Miz, Cesaro and Sheamus against Dean, Seth and a Superstar who decided to stay on Raw for one more night: "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles.

The Shield (Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins) and "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles beats The Miz, Sheamus and Cesaro. After the match, Kane shows up. Kane fights off Styles and Seth while Miz, Cesaro and Sheamus triple team Dean. Seth then gets choke slammed. Miz, Cesaro and Sheamus leave as Kane tosses Dean out of the ring.

Kane is in the ring. He says he has heard about Braun Strowman's boasts and accomplishments, and how he always wanted competition. He likes what he heard, but he had to see Braun's power for himself. When he did, what he saw was a pile of trash. Last night, he put Braun where he belonged: in the back of a garbage truck. When Braun was scooped in, he looked in his eyes. Kane saw in Braun's eyes a fear that had never been instilled in him before, and says Braun saw the truth: he is Raw's only monster. Now that Braun is gone, he wants competition...or else. Kane gets competition...in the form of Finn Balor.

Kane beats Finn Balor with three choke slams.

General Manager Kurt Angle meets SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon. He is hurt, but he is okay. Angle thanks Shane for "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles' service tonight and last night, then mentions the Traditional Survivor Series Matches and says Raw will win. Shane says SmackDown Live will annihilate Raw, and he can see it now on Twitter in the form of #UnderSiege. Both men shake hands, then Shane walks away.

The Green Bay Packers are in the front row tonight.

Asuka beats Emma with the Asuka Lock.

Alexa Bliss shows up. Alexa says she has beaten Mickie James, and can put her where she belongs: in the past. She then mentions her match with Natalya at Survivor Series, where she says she will dominate Natalya. There may be two brands, but Natalya will know there is only one goddess. Alexa then says that she gets no respect even after her match with Mickie, but Finn Balor vs. AJ Styles gets "this is awesome" chants. She wants to know where her chants are, and then chalks her lack of chants up to fan jealousy. She then mocks the fans, saying she will put out a chant, then the crowd will repeat it back. She starts with "You deserve it" only to get showered with boos. Alexa demands appreciation, and demands the fans chant "You deserve it." Mickie James shows up. She kicks Alexa in the gut, then hits her with a a DDT. She then tells Alexa "you do deserve it."

Backstage, General Manager Kurt Angle meets Bayley and Sasha Banks, who say that it was great to see him back in action. Angle tells Bayley and Sasha Banks are the best picks for the captain for Team Raw. Alicia Fox cuts in, wanting to be captain. Angle makes a Triple Threat Match between Bayley, Sasha and Alicia Fox. Angle then reminds Alicia that pinfalls only count inside the ring. Alicia says "Oh, Kurt, you're so silly!"

Elias is in the ring. He asks who wants to walk with him, then sings and plays guitar. After making fun of Aaron Rodgers' collarbone - which leads to a "Go Packs Go" chant - as well as Jason Jordan's maturity - or supposed lack thereof - he announces an uninterrupted performance. All he asks is that the crowd be totally silent, which does not happen. All of a sudden, a blast of static can be heard, not once, but twice. The static is heard again. Elias stops performing, and the "Go Packs Go" chants are even stronger. Elias threatens to bring out the sound technician and beat him up in the ring, but Jason Jordan shows up.

Jason Jordan beats Elias by disqualification after Elias smashes his guitar into Jason Jordan's left shoulder. Trainers check on Jason Jordan - who also has a big welt on his left arm - after the match, and help him to the back.

Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar show up. Heyman says that someone wants to dispute the fact that Brock Lesnar is the undisputed champion in WWE. He says this someone has barely survived title challenge after title challenge on SmackDown Live; meanwhile, Brock Lesnar has eaten through the best heavyweights Raw has to offer. Heyman goes on to say this is the age of trash talking and that everyone wants to do it, and says he is the king of it right now. Even though the fans clamor for it, he does not trash talk Lesnar's opponents, as anyone facing Lesnar is a real man for doing it. He praised Goldberg, Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman, and rightfully so. Jinder Mahal, "the make-believe Maharaja" with "The Sing-Along Brothers," on the other hand, is not even close to be Lesnar's equal, and he also says that Jinder Mahal is not even close to who anyone thinks makes a fine WWE Champion. He calls Jinder "a consolation prize champion," and says SmackDown Live got the shaft in the Superstar Shake-Up. Heyman says there is no battle for brand supremacy here, as the brand with Lesnar is the only brand that matters, and since Jinder Mahal wants to dispute Lesnar, he is going to Suplex City. However, that is where Jinder's night will only begin due to what Lesnar can do, as he and Lesnar accept Jinder's challenge.

Charly Caruso interviews Kalisto. He is fine physically, but he dreamed of being a champion. He would be okay if he lost to someone he respected and not Enzo. Therefore, he is invoking his rematch clause tomorrow night. As for tonight, it's about familia. Cedric alexander, Rich Swann, Mustafa Ali and Gran Metalik show up. Tonight, they will win the 10-man Cruiserweight tag team match.

Alicia Fox beats Bayley and Sasha Banks in a Triple Threat Match to become the captain of Team Raw in the Women's Traditional Survivor Series Match at Survivor Series. During the amtch, Alicia Fox takes the ring bell and starts ringing it, and almost loses the match to Bayley. Later on in the match, Sasha gets Banks Statement on Alicia Fox, who manages to get out of it after Sasha rolls off the bottom rope and push Sasha into Bayley, who is on the ring apron. Alicia then trips on Bayley, and gets the pinfall. She then celebrates by kissing referee Darrick Moore.

Before the next match, Drew Gulak introduces Enzo Amore while reading off a clipboard, since Enzo has completely lost his voice. Drew says Kalisto is more of a letdown than the Green Bay Packers. He compares Enzo to Anthony Barr and Kalisto to Aaron Rodgers. All five members of Team Enzo then spell out "S-A-W-F-T," and Enzo's "T" almost sounds like a cough.

Kalisto, Rich Swann, Cedric Alexander, Mustafa Ali and Gran Metalik beat Enzo Amore, Drew Gulak, "The Premiere Athlete" Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari and Noam Dar in a 10-Man Cruiserweight Tag Team Match.

General Manager Kurt Angle shows up. Angle says the red brand cannot wait for Survivor Series, as it is the only time they go up against SmackDown Live. He is about to mention who is on Raw's men's team when SmackDown Live Shane McMahon's entrance hits. All of a sudden, Shane McMahon is seen on the crowd along with the SmackDown Live roster. Shane says to Kurt "Under...siege." Kurt Angle leaves, and heads to the back. All of a sudden, Shane sics the SmackDown Live roster on Angle. Backstage, the SmackDown Live roster gives Titus O'Neil and Apollo Crews an epic beatdown. They then find an intern, beat him up, then notice a monitor with the Raw logo and topple it over. The make-up crew is also chased after, but then Goldust and Curt Hawkins show up only to get stomped on. The attack continues in the locker room, where the SmackDown Live roster easily outnumbers whoever they find. In the hallway, Raw's women are overpowered by SmackDown Live's women, and not even The Shield (Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins) can stop them. Even Dean and Seth cannot stop them, and Kurt Angle is held hostage and forced to watch Dean and Seth get manhandled. Angle is dragged back out to the ring. Shane motions for the blue brand roster to bring Angle to the ring, which they do. Angle gets in the ring, and Shane then tells Angle to bring his gold medal and what's rest of his roster so they can finish what they started.

Here are the top 10 moments from tonight's show.
