Raw Deal - Raw recap for December 30, 2019

Kevin Owens shows up to start tonight's show. Owens says that tonight and the new year will be started off early with some fireworks due to what happened last Monday. He then says that Seth Rollins and AOP (Akam and Rezar) have run roughshod for weeks and have sent him to the hospital twice, but he will continue to call them out and get beat up for it until he takes someone down with him. Owens also says he has a problem when the repercussions affect people besides himself who he respects, such as Rey Mysterio, and says it made him sick to see Rey ganged up on, saying that it is the reason why Rey lost the United States title to Andrade on Thursday. After a replay of Andrade beating Rey for the United States Championship on Thursday at Madison Square Garden, Rollins and AOP show up before Owens can call them out. Rollins says that his position was caused when his hand by forced by people who think they know what is best for him, and that Owens has left him no choice but to impose his will and enforce it through the AOP if anyone resists. Owens immediately gets out of the ring and brawls with AOP, but AOP quickly get the upper hand. Rollins commands AOP to teach Owens a lesson, then an angry Samoa Joe shows up and levels AOP. Joe then gets in the ring with Rollins and attacks him before putting him in the Coaquina Clutch. AOP get back in the ring and save Rollins, then gang up on Joe until Owens attacks them with a chair. Security shows up in numbers to stop the brawl, but Owens takes everyone out with a dive from the top rope.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews Samoa Joe, who says that he did not have a choice and that Rollins chose for him to get involve and never be safe again, and made it so that Kevin Owens does not stand alone. Owens says he has known some bad people for a long time, but no one is badder than Joe and he is glad that Joe is with him in this fight. Security then shows up, and Joe threatens to beat them up if they touch him. Owens and Joe then leave after Owens sarcastically wishes security a happy new year.

Styles replays what happened in the last two weeks to show that Raw is "The O.C.'s show," then Anderson says they proved The Viking Raiders (Ivar and Erik) were beatable, especially at Crown Jewel. Gallows then says that The O.C. are the next in line to challenge for the Raw tag team titles, then Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) shows up. Street Profits admit that The O.C. are telling the truth about beating The Viking Raiders twice and becoming the best tag team in the world, then boast about The O.C. during their Raw debut. Styles tells Street Profits that they got lucky when they beat The O.C., then tells them to stick to backstage skits before they get hurt. Dawkins says he would be threatened by The O.C. if they weren't named after a teen soap opera, then Gallows tells Street Profits to get in the ring so they can kick their asses.

Randy Orton shows up on crutches, and has to be helped into the ring. Orton says that accidents and injuries happen in wrestling all the time and that everyone who gets in the ring is aware of the risks that they take. He says it killed him to need assistance to get into the ring, as he has seen champions surrender their titles due to injuries, and he has even seen Edge surrender his entire career due to an injury. He then says he landed funny on his left knee during a show last night, and he did not know how badly he hurt himself until he got his knee checked out. He says he will be out for a long time, and he is afraid he may not be able to come back. Orton says he will do everything in his power to ensure somebody gets RKO'd at WrestleMania, then "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles shows up. Styles proceeds to mock Orton and make fun of the fact that he can pester him without Orton being able to do anything about it, then puts his hands behind his back to give Orton a shot at him. Styles even closes his eyes, but Orton does nothing. Styles then says he is a patient man and that he will wait until WrestleMania to re-injure his knee and make him retire before kicking a crutch out from under him. Before Styles leaves, Orton gets Styles' attention and tells Styles that the difference between them is that he isn't patient before hitting Styles with an RKO, revealing he is not injured after all.

We see more footage of Andrade beating Rey Mysterio for the WWE United States Championship last Thursday at Madison Square Garden. We then hear from Rey, who says that Andrade is the better man and that he is looking forward to his rematch.

The wedding of Lana and Bobby Lashley takes place. During the exchange of vows, Lana demands that the minister read what is exactly on the script, then yells at the fans that the wedding is not about Rusev when the fans chant "Rusev Day." Lana then tells Lashley that today is the luckiest day of his entire life, as she is marrying the greatest woman who ever lived and that no other woman can compare to her. She also says that Lashley has strived for excellence and to be the best his entire life, and that the greatest gift he can ever get is her. Lana and Lashley then make out briefly in the middle of the ring, then Lashley reads the vows, which are written by Lana. After the rings are placed on the fingers, a man shows up to object to the wedding, saying it is a complete sham and should not continue. The man then identifies himself as Lana's first husband, and says that they married when Lana turned 18 only to leave him for Rusev, who she left for Lashley, and says the same things will happen to Lashley only for Lashley to choke slam him. As Lana and Lashley are about to be declared husband and wife, a woman shows up and says that she is Lashley's first wife, and that they met while Bobby was in the military. Lana clocks her off the ring apron with a bouquet of flowers. Suddenly, another woman objects, saying that the love of her life is in the ring and that she came to the WWE as a wild child hoping her dreams would come true, and that she never knew she could be herself until they fell in love. The woman - who happens to be Liv Morgan - asks how they can do this to her, and Lashley says he has never met her in his entire life. Liv says she isn't talking about Bobby; she is talking about Lana. Lana cries, then slaps Liv Morgan and slams her into the corner. This starts a brawl between the two women that referees have to break up so that officials can get Liv out of the ring. As Lana and Lashley are about to be declared man and wife, Rusev comes out of the wedding cake and attacks Lashley. Liv Morgan gets back int the ring and slams Lana into the cake, and the show ends.
