Raw Deal - Raw recap for July 27, 2026

General Manager Adam Pearce and WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque are in the ring to start tonight's show as the Cell comes down. Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman) are escorted to the ring for the official weigh-in for their match. Oba comes out first, followed by Lesnar and Heyman. Oba steps on the scale for his weigh-in first, and weighs in at 302 lbs. Lesnar and Heyman then arrive and make their way to the Cell for Lesnar's weigh-in. When Lesnar's police escort enters the Cell, however, Lesnar locks the Cell door, trapping Oba Femi in the Cell. Heyman announces there is a slight change of plans, as allowing Lesnar in the Cell is not a very good idea. Heyman calls Brock Lensar the most non-PG, most successful and most violent individual in the history of combat sports before telling Oba Femi that he is an underdog going into his Hell in a Cell match with Lesnar. Heyman says that Oba Femi will not beat Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell, then says that Lesnar stepped on a scale backstage and weighed in at 303 lbs. Lesnar then lays the key to the Cell on the floor to taunt Oba Femi, then tells Oba "I'll see you at SummerSlam, bitch!" As Lesnar and Heyman leave, Oba Femi takes his anger out on all of the police officers in the ring and attacks them. (Some of the police officers escoring Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar are played by indepedent wrestlers Lucas Riley, Dom Kubrick and Mathias.)



We look at "Chapter VI: Surprise," which chronicles Seth "Freakin'" Rollins vs. Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at Royal Rumble 2022 and their hatred for each other at the time.

The Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, "Main Event" Jey Uso, Jacob Fatu) are seen arriving to the arena in two black SUV's.

WBC Welterweight World Champion Ryan Garcia is seen in the front row.

The Vision (Bron Breakker and Austin Theory) beats Alpha Academy (Otis and Akira Tozawa) after Logan Paul distracts the referee, allowing Theory to get the knees up to block Tozawa's top rope senton. After the match, The Vision continue to attack Tozawa, but Otis makes the save and stops Breakker from hitting another Spear. Maxxine distracts Otis as Otis goes up top, and Breakker and Theory powerbomb Otis out of the corner for a Bron Breakker Spear. On the way out, Theory grabs a metal folding chair and smacks Otis' head against the ring post with it.



Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews LA Knight. Knight says he is paranoid, as everything he has said would happen has happened, and at SummerSlam, he will be doing some fighting and putting The Bloodline (Jimmy Uso, "Main Event" Jey Uso, Jacob Fatu) in a hole.

We hear from Raquel Rodriguez and Sol Ruca. Raquel says that Sol Ruca will not get lucky again and will not let the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship slip through her fingers. Sol Ruca says she knows what she is getting into and that Raquel will throw everything at her, but she has beaten her once and she will beat her again.

Comedian Fluffy, Hot Ones: Extra Heat host Sean Evans, All the Smoke Podcast host Matt Barnes, and "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart are seen in the crowd.

We see a video package of Chad Gable's road to SummerSlam.

We hear from Iyo Sky, who says that she has been in Liv Morgan's head since Queen of the Ring and that Liv is not as strong as she thinks she is. She says that Liv is not the greatest challenge of all time, which she has been in the presence of great champions and wrestlers that Liv pales in comparison to. Iyo says that Liv's arrogance will be her downfall and that Liv is scared to lose. She says she will prove Liv wrong again and face her for the World Women's Championship at SummerSlam, stating that she has beaten her once and she will do it again.

Je'Von Evans beats Rusev after escaping the Accolade twice.



We look at "Chapter VII: Old Ghosts," which chronicles what happened between Seth "Freakin'" Rollins and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40.

Joe Hendry and Danhausen perform a concert in the ring regarding their feud with The Judgment Day ("Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh). The Minihausens join in to dance and play tambourine, and "The Clipperhausens" (really the Los Angeles Clippers dance team) dance at ringside. WBC Welterweight Champion Ryan Garcia jumps the line and joins the ringside dancers before playing guitar in the ring. When Joe Hendry turns his back after noticing Garcia, Garcia hits Hendry from behind with the guitar before JD McDonagh and "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio show up and lay out Danhausen. Dominik and McDonagh celebrate with Ryan Garcia.



We hear from Penta. He says that he is glad Chad Gable changed, but forgiveness does not erase the past and winning the International Championship will not earn him redemption.

Actor Harry Jowsey, actor and TV host Mario Lopez, actor and rapper O'Shea Jackson Jr., and actor Ashton Kutcher are seen in the crowd.

We see another vignette for Big Cass, who will return to WWE next week.

"All Ego" Ethan Page beats Rey Mysterio after blocking the 619 with the ring skirt.



We hear from Liv Morgan, who says that Iyo Sky does not understand who she is facing at SummerSlam. Liv says that everyone overlooked and underestimated her on her way to the top, and that she will do whatever it takes to stay there. She says she does not care about what people think; only the Women's World Championship, which means she has to care about Iyo. She says that Iyo is not in her head and that she is stronger than Iyo thinks she is.

Backstage, it is revealed that Danhausen and the Minihausens have been laid out in Danhausen's laboratory. General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and tells Danhausen to give the money back to "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh, and Danhausen tells Pearce to put it on a pole for a match. Pearce makes a Human Monies on a Pole Match official for SummerSlam.



The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) head to the ring. Jey Uso warns LA Knight, Royce Keys and Solo Sikoa with a warning shot, then Solo Sikoa shows up out of the crowd and mocks them, saying The Usos started this by running back to Roman Reigns and that "the real Bloodline" had him in it. After Solo says that The Usos have no chance at SummerSlam, Jimmy says that Solo is just playing games before telling him to "run the play or else." Solo asks why he would come back to the family when he and everyone else loves where he is at, and tells The Usos that Roman Reigns can kiss his ass, then LA Knight shows up. LA Knight says his heart does not feel for The Usos' family drama and hopes that maybe they could patch it up before they pay penances for what they did to him and Royce Keys. He says that the talking is done, and he will see them at SummerSlam. Knight turns to leave, then turns around, takes off his jacket, and says he could walk down the aisle so that he and Solo Sikoa can stomp The Usos right now. Solo soon joins Knight in the ring, starting a tag team brawl that only escalates when Jacob Fatu shows up. Royce Keys soon arrives to even the numbers game, then brawls with Jacob Fatu. Jacob soon locks the Tongan Death Grip on Royce Keys before Solo breaks the hold and hits Jacob with the Samoan Spike. Knight hits Jacob with the BFT, and he, Solo and Royce stand tall in the ring.



We see a video package of a brief history of the Hell in a Cell Match.

Raquel Rodriguez beats Sol Ruca to become the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship! During the match, Roxanne Perez runs out to the ring and is taken out by Sol Ruca. Liv Morgan shows up and yanks at Sol Ruca from the outside behind the referee's back, and that allows Raquel to hit a big boot. Iyo Sky shows up and goes at it with Liv Morgan, hitting her with the Bullet Train Attack into the ring post. Sol Ruca then goes for the Soul Snatcher on Raquel only to be yanked down by Roxanne, and Raquel hits the Tejana Bomb for the pin, the win and the championship.



We see "Chapter VIII: The Grandest Stage," which chronicles Seth "Freakin'" Rollins' World Heavyweight Championship win at WrestleMania 41.

Roman Reigns heads to the ring. Before the fans can acknowledge Reigns, however, Seth "Freakin'" Rollins shows up and heads to the ring. Rollins demands that the fans acknowledge him, and Reigns calls him an asshole. Rollins says that this is how he gets his, as some other people get things handed to them while people like him have to grind to survive. He admits that Reigns is everything he says he is and everything WWE wanted him to be, and while Reigns has an edge over him in so many departments, he will never be better than him at professional wrestling. Rollins says that when it comes to what goes on in the ring, he owns Reigns, and when it comes to what goes on inside Reigns' head, he owns Reigns there, too. He says that Reigns can call him an asshole, but he cannot call him a liar, and SummerSlam will not be any different. He says that Reigns can need to beat him all he wants, but he will not stand a chance. Reigns states that he is "the only true Superstar" and "the only true champion" around here, and that he meant it when he said that he needed to beat Rollins, and says that the whole industry needs him to beat Rollins. Rollins says it is funny what they need and that Reigns needs this so badly, then addresses Reigns needing his family to be there to see Reigns beat him as well as how he cashed in on him at WrestleMania 31 and sent him and his family home in tears. He then hopes that Reigns' family is there on Sunday so he can see them cry again after finding out that their father is a fraud, a loser and "forever Seth Rollins' bitch." Reigns punches Rollins in the face and attacks him. Reigns soon hits Rollins with the Superman Punch followed by the Spear, then grabs a metal folding chair and tries to hit Rollins with it only for Rollins to recover and hit Reigns with The Stomp.

He also calls his title a wrestling championship and not a sports entertainment championship, and tells him to leave the sports entertainment gimmick at home as he wants "The Lionheart" and "the last survivor of The Hart Dungeon." Moxley then says he is the champion and that anyone else but the best need not apply.





We get our first look at the AEW World Trios Championships and learn that there will be a World Trios Championships tournament coming soon.

"Absolute" Ricky Starks quickly retains the FTW Championship against Danhausen. After the match, Starks says Danhausen may be very nice and very evil, but he is not absolute. He then demands another challenger and promises that he is game to face someone else right now. That challenge is answered by Hook.

Hook beats "Absolute" Ricky Starks with Redrum to become the FTW Champion. After the match, both men fistbump.

As he says his bad luck is just bad timing, Hobbs lays out Starks from behind. Hobbs then hits Starks with a spinebuster.

Letal says they have unfinished business with Best Friends, then Best Friends shows up and say their dance card is empty and that Sonjay does not have what it takes anymore. This gets Sonjay Dutt so riled up that he challenges Best Friends to a six-man tag match, much to the surprise of himself, much less Lethal and Singh.

Tony Schiavone interviews Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus in the ring. Jungle Boy calls Christian Cage the biggest pussy he has ever met in his entire life, and that he has watched him come out for weeks to talk bullshit about his family to become the most relevant he has ever been in his entire career. He then says Christian tucked his tail and ran as soon as he returned, and says that for someone wrestling as long as Christian Cage has, losing out in a battle royal and the money from it a year ago should not be a big deal. Jungle Boy then says he realized that Christian Cage needed the money because his wife "divorced his bitch ass." He says that Chrisian Cage got Luchasaurus to protect him, but Luchasaurus is also his best friend. He then dares Christian Cage to talk shit and hit him in the head with a chair, and as Jungle Boy continues to speak, Christian interrupts on the video screen. Christian tells Luchasaurus that he made a mistake after he guided him to where he could have been, and says Luchasaurus threw everything away to be "Jungle Boy's lap dog." He also says he ran away from Jungle Boy because of what he would do to him and that the one-man Con-Chair-To is nothing, then says the next thing he will drape on him is a bodybag when he buries him next to his father.

Dakota Kai says that Raquel Gonzales debuted eighteen months ago and has been unstoppable ever since, and that Raquel is the most dominant woman in NXT history, having defeated former champions in a list of opponents that will continue to go on. She says that the NXT women's division is the greatest because of one woman, and says that with NXT TakeOver 36 being four weeks away, she wants to know who wants to face Raquel. When nobody shows up, Dakota Kai says that nobody is willing to face her, and that she will always have her back as long as she is champion. As Raquel has her back turned, Dakota Kai lays Raquel out with a kick to the face. Raquel feels betrayed as Dakota Kai walks up the ramp.



We hear from Adam Cole, who says that everybody has been trying to attach themselves to him recently, with Kyle O'Reilly continuing to talk about him and Bronson Reed calling him his "rebound."

Bivens says he is the best, and that he is the one to bring Roderick back to NXT.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for July 27, 2020

Randy Orton shows up to start tonight's show. Orton says that for the last 20 years, he has gone under numerous names as he became the youngest world champion in WWE history and became part of some iconic teams. He then says that when he thinks of the greats that have come out of the business, he says that none of them can hold a candle to him as he has always done what he wanted when he wanted to do it, which will not change. Orton then says he knows what is missing, and that he needs to become WWE Champion again. He says that Drew McIntyre pales in comparison to him and that he "had his head so far up his ass that he got fired" before coming back. He admits that McIntyre has his respect after beating Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship, but warns McIntyre that he has what he wants and that he has a tendency to take stuff he wants from people in the biggest way possible. Orton proposes that McIntyre defend the championship against him at SummerSlam, and when he beats McIntyre for the championship, he will never see it coming.



Nia Jax shows up as Randy Orton leaves, and says she knows how Orton feels as she wants to be Raw Women's Champion, as she was screwed out of the title by a certain referee and Charlotte Flair butted in line before she could get her rematch. She then hints that Charlotte has not been seen since, then "The Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler shows up. Baszler says nobody gives a damn what Nia wants, and Nia punches her.

Seth Rollins and Murphy show up. Seth talks about his victories against Rey Mysterio at Extreme Rules and Aleister Black from last week, then says he is on a roll, but that he is not in a great mood because Dominick is here and he plans to confront him. He says that every time the greater good takes two step forwards, someone gets in the way and he is forced to take a step back, and someone has to get hurt every step of the way, mentioning that Aleister Black has injured his arm. Rollins says he does not want to be "the person who hurts people," because that is not who he is. He says that last time Dominick confronted him, he attacked him from behind and things got more violent than he preferred. He then says tonight will be different, and asks that Dominick confront him face-to-face so they can talk things out. Dominick shows up, and Rollins asks him to step into the ring. Dominick slowly steps into the ring, and Rollins gives him the chance to get something off his chest. Rollins tells him that he is here for him if he cannot articulate his feeling into words, then tries to hug him. Dominick tackles Rollins instead. This leads to a brawl where Rollins and Murphy gang up on Dominick and throw him into the barricade multiple times before throwing him into the announce table. The steel steps then catch Rollins' eye, and as he is about to sacrifice Dominick, Aleister Black shows up and attacks Rollins. Aleister Black is attacked and his arm targeted, and Murphy takes him down with a high knee. Rollins then hits Aleister with The Stomp, then commands Murphy to sacrifice Aleister. Murphy grabs Aleister, then shoves Aleister's right eye into the corner of the steel steps. Rollins then commands Murphy to find Dominick.

It's time for The VIP Lounge. MVP talks about last week's events, then says he wants to help Mustafa Ali see the light before introducing Ali as his guest for the night. Ali says he is happy to be back with the opportunity to climb the ladder and become a real champion. MVP gives Ali credit for his talent and says it can happen if he makes the right decisions and hangs with the right people. Ali says he is not interested in joining him and that he has always thought for himself, but MVP tells him he is not thinking clearly, especially when he has a match with Bobby Lashley. MVP says that Apollo Crews went down a similar path and is now injured and sitting at home, and gives Ali the choice of either being a champion with "the hurt business" or he can be chum in the water for predators. Ali says "no," and as he speaks, R-Truth runs in and tackles Shelton Benjamin before running away after a failed pinfall attempt.

Bayley and Sasha Banks show up. Sasha says nobody likes a bully and that there is no bigger bully than Stephanie McMahon, who says he is jealous of her and Bayley and is forcing her to defend the Raw Women's Championship due to their dominance in the company. Bayley says that they are the show and that they always do the right thing, and when Asuka inadvertently blinded the referee at Extreme Rules, she took the referee's shirt to make the three count and says any good role model would have done the same thing. Sasha says that she and Bayley have done what they said they would do, and Bayley says that tonight, Sasha will make "The Empress of Nothing" Asuka tap out. When The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) show up, Kairi chases Bayley to the back.

Before the next match, "The Last Real Man" Silas Young realizes it has been two years since Josh "The Goods" Woods has debuted in Ring of Honor and that he has done nothing. He says it does not have to be that way, and that Woods should be getting the respect of his peers, but he is not respected like he is. He asks Goods if he wants to come out to golf claps his entire career, or if he wants to be great and earn respect, for a guy like him is more than a little wet behind the ears in the business and he has a lot more learning to do before earning respect. As the referee returns the microphone, Silas kicks Woods in the groin before winning with an inside cradle. "The Last Real Man" Silas Young beats Josh "The Goods" Woods.

He then plays a song for "his good friend and mentor" Shane McMahon, then threatens to leave when nobody shuts up.

Elias then plays anyway, but as he praises Shane through song, he gets a phone call from WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. After answering the call, he announces that Vince has given him as much time as he likes. Elias then sings about how Shane McMahon will beat Kevin Owens at SummerSlam, then proceeds to make fun of Owens. Suddenly, Owens shows up and the lights turn back on. Owens then plays Elias' electric guitar, then forces Elias to retreat following a punch. He was hoping somebody would cut Elias off, but nobody did and Elias made the mistake of mentioning him.

A referee shows up, and the match is official.

Kevin Owens beats Elias.

Lashley shows up. He says that when he started in wrestling, there was a pecking order where you start at the bottom and work your way to the top. It seems to him that people are getting title shots as soon as they show up, and if anyone tries to get past him to a title, he will break them in half. He calls out Bruce Prichard, and demands to know when he will be getting his World title shot and who he has to face at Destination X.

Samoa Joe shows up. He didn't know that NXT General Manager William Regal put him in a NXT Championship match against Shinsuke Nakamura until he walked into the building. He is angry with William Regal for not consulting him first, and says the match will not happen as he calls Nakamura "an undeserving contender" and didn't do what he did to get to the title. Regal shows up, and tells Joe he will fight who he tells him to fight. Joe says he had to jump over every hoop Regal had to get the title, and that Nakamura did not do that. He wants Regal to get him "a real, deserving contender," but Regal tells him if he refuses, it counts as a forfeit and Joe loses the title. Joe tells Regal that if this is how he wants to play, he'll have his match, but he will destroy Nakamura, and if he sees Nakamura before TakeOver, Nakamura might not make it to TakeOver at all. Nakamura shows up and stares down Samoa Joe from the top of the entrance ramp to end the show.
