Raw Deal - Raw recap for June 29, 2026

Oba Femi heads to the ring to start tonight's show. As Oba talks about becoming King of the Ring at Night of Champions, Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar show up and head to the ring. Lesnar introduces Oba as King of the Ring and talks about how he was King of the Ring a long time ago, then apologizes for not watching the show as he congratulates Oba before telling Oba that he has a big decision as well as mentioning Oba calling him a coward and a bitch when he is not here. He also says that Oba can cut a good promo, which he admits he could never do and is why he has Paul Heyman with him. He then tells Oba "Talk shit, get hit" before kicking Oba in the groin and hitting him with the F5. Oba soon gets back up and says that this is what Lesnar always does, then says that Lesnar is in front of him and that Lesnar is still a bitch. He says that they can do this forever, or they can settle the score at SummerSlam. Lesnar accepts on the condition that their match is a Hell in a Cell Match.



The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) are joined by Joe Hendry during their backstage photoshoot.

Backstage, Paul Heyman has to sell General Manager Adam Pearce on Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi in Hell in a Cell in SummerSlam. Suddenly, Austin Theory shows up wanting to know if Heyman will be at ringside for his match tonight.

Rey Mysterio beats "All Ego" Ethan Page.



Backstage, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh look for Danhausen, then find something with a sticker saying "To: Danhausen, From: The Knicks" on the back. They decide to use what they found to send Danhausen a message.

Joe Hendry is in the ring to perform a concert. Hendry introduces a special guest for this concert: the new World Tag Team Champions, The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford). Montez Ford thanks the fans for the love they have shown over the past week and through their career in WWE, Seth "Freakin'" Rollins for his assistance, and Joe Hendry for distracting with his surprise return. Joe Hendry then sings about The Street Profits winning the World Tag Team Championships, then Austin Theory shows up and calls The Street Profits thieves and announces that there will be a tag team title rematch next week. Theory says that the leash will be loose on Bron Breakker last week, then tells Joe Hendry that he will destroy him in the ring for making his last song about him. Hendry says that they can do this right now.



Joe Hendry beats Austin Theory.



Backstage, Raquel Rodriguez wants a shot at the Women's Intercontinental Championship when she finds out that Maxxine Dupri also wants the title, and says that she will go through her for the title. General Manager Adam Pearce makes that official for tonight, then Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez show up and mention what has been going on when Raquel tells Liv that she has back.

Iyo Sky heads to the ring. Iyo Sky says she is grateful to come back as Queen of the Ring, then thanks the fans for their support before stating that she beat Liv Morgan to be Queen and will beat her again. Suddenly, Liv Morgan shows up and asks Iyo Sky if she is proud of herself before telling Iyo that she got lucky and won because Danhausen cursed her, then says SummerSlam will be different now that she does not respect Iyo. Liv says that Iyo has pissed her off and says that she will deal with her like she did Stephanie Vaquer and Rhea Ripley and absolutely destroy her to remain Women's World Champion. She then says that until then, Iyo is in for a whole lot of trouble as Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez show up from behind Iyo. Iyo fends them off, then confronts Liv. Liv goes for the Ob-Liv-Ion as Iyo is distracted, but Iyo gets the upper hand. The numbers game soon catches up to Iyo, and Iyo is soon surrounded and ganged up on before Liv hits Iyo with the Ob-Liv-Ion. Liv then puts Iyo in a single leg crab in the middle of the ring, and officials have to get Liv to break the hold.



"Main Event" Jey Uso guests on commentary for the next match.

Jimmy Uso beats LA Knight thanks to the distraction from "Main Event" Jey Uso, who Knight hit with a cheap shot for yelling at him while on commentary. After the match, Knight attacks Jimmy, then Jey gets in the ring and beats Knight up. All of a sudden, Solo Sikoa shows up and hits Jimmy with a Samoan Spike and flees through the crowd. Knight then hits Jey with the BFT in the middle of the ring.





We see footage of Gunther having a backstage confrontation with SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis after Night of Champions. Aldis shoves Gunther after Gunther accuses Aldis of screwing him, and Gunther shoves back. Both men have been sent home, with Aldis being put on administrative leave pending an investigation and Raw General Manager Adam Pearce running both shows for the immediate future.

Backstage, The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) find Jacob Fatu and asks where he has been. Jacob says he only takes orders from Roman Reigns, and after tonight, Roman Reigns has told him that he will fix things with Solo Sikoa on SmackDown. Jey says he will be joining Jacob and that with Sami Zayn as the Undisputed WWE Champion now, he will bring gold back to The Bloodline (Roman, Jimmy, Jey, Jacob).

We hear from Lyra Valkyria, who says that everyone is on her back after she let the anger take over and turned on Bayley after being the better woman for over a year. She then says she is not losing sleep over it, as she wanted to bring Bayley to the top with her after putting trust in Bayley after doing it herself. She says she never wanted to hurt Bayley, but it felt so good to close that gap.



Backstage, Maxxine Dupri passes by Chad Gable and says she meant what she said to him, but apologizes for how she said it. Gable tells Maxxine she has nothing to apologize for and that she has a match to focus on.

Raquel Rodriguez beats Maxxine Dupri for a shot at the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship.



Backstage, Danhausen finds his laboratory ransacked by "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh and his gift from the New York Knicks stolen. Liv Morgan shows up and tells Danhausen to make things right with The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez, JD McDonagh, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio) before things get worse for him.

Before the next match, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio accompanies JD McDonagh wearing a New York Knicks jersey with Danhausen's name on the back, which is the Knicks' gift to Danhausen that Dominik and McDonagh stole.

Chad Gable beats JD McDonagh by submission with the ankle lock after Danhausen shows up and "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio flees through the crowd. Danhausen then leaves a briefcase at ringside. McDonagh tries to reverse Chaos Theory after the distraction from what has happened, but Gable locks in the ankle lock and McDonagh quickly taps out. After the match, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh find the briefcase that Danhausen has left behind and open it. A powder trap springs on them, and Danhausen runs out and takes his jersey back only to be attacked by Raquel Rodriguez. Danhausen disappears, and Raquel gets the Knicks jersey back.





Backstage, Maxxine Dupri is met by Austin Theory, who says that their relationship - which has been happening in the background in the last couple of weeks - is not working out if she is willing to go back down the Alpha Academy (Otis, Akira Tozawa, Maxxine Dupri) road. Theory leaves, and when Otis and Tozawa show up and ask Maxxine if she is okay, Maxxine says "I don't know" and leaves.



Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu head to the ring. After the commercial break, Roman is about to speak when Seth "Freakin'" Rollins suddenly shows up and heads to the ring. Both Roman and Rollins have a staredown, then Rollins addresses their history in WWE together and states that it is fitting that they are both in this moment with Roman in possession of a title that belongs to him. Rollins says that it is time to collect, but Roman tells Rollins that he is "the back of the line" and has done nothing of late to face him for the World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins says Roman can play that game with everyone else, but not with him. Rollins says that he is always the front of the line when it comes to Roman, as he owns Roman in the ring, in his head and in his heart and is responsible for Roman accomplishing all that he has in that time. He then talks about the last few times he tried to put a stop to him in the last four years and mentions that Roman beat everyone in that time except for one person, as well as how he cashed in on Roman at WrestleMania 31. Rollins says he has owned Roman since the day he took a metal folding chair to his back and betrayed him, then says he is here to give Roman something nobody else can give him, as Roman is great as he is claimed to be and has done it all. Rollins then says that Roman has only one thing left to do in WWE - beat him - and that he will give him that opportunity, as this may be the last chance for Roman to do it. He talks about how he and Roman came into WWE together and created "the greatest generation in the history of this industry," and states they are now closer to the end than to the beginning as there is now a new genearation ready to beat them.Rollins says that this is the last time they may be able to do this dance, as Roman is a sure-fire Hall of Famer and he may not be there to induct him. He then says that if Roman does not take this challenge, he may not be able to escape "the ghost of Seth Rollins." Rollins asks Roman if he accepts, and Roman says it has been a long time since he heard any truth from Rollins' mouth and admits that Rollins is right. He says he does not want to beat Rollins, but he needs to beat him and have his family witness it. Roman then says he will do just that at SummerSlam, and accepts Rollins' challenge.

He also says that Roberts is nothing more than an egg-sucking dog, to which the fans agree, and demands Roberts accept the challenge, even asking for Matchmaker King Cobra and Assistant Matchmaker Michael to make the match official. Matchmaker King Cobra shows up and says he has some good news and bad news. The good news is that he has a contract for the championship match today, but the bad news is that in order to get the signature, Bosby has to put his Memphis Wrestling contract. If Bosby wins, he is the champion again, but if he loses, he is gone from Memphis Wrestling. Bosby says that if this is what it takes, then he is on, as Roberts started this and he will end this and become a three-time champion.



Backstage, Big John Dalton is met by Coach Miller, who reminds him that all of the dirtsheets are talking about him and that he has gotten Memphis Wrestling a lot of views, and that he must keep the momentum going.

Mackenzie says that he loves the fans and that they are her world, and while she is in a world of war, she chooses peace, and she is a fighter for the fans. She says that she is the sound of his mother's scream and the message of his father's whisper as she conquers anything in her way. As for what is next, what happens happens, and she wants to be the fans' favorite. All of a sudden, an unknown female wrestler shows up, and she introduces herself to Mackenzie by punching her in the face. After another punch to the face, she gets Mackenzie in the ring and hits her with a Michinoku Driver before caressing her face. She then hits Mackenzie with a leg drop as security is at the ring. The mystery woman then makes it clear that she wants the Memphis Wrestling Women's Championship.

This allows Bosby to lock in the ankle lock and grapevine it, and without Justin Case on the ring apron to distract the referee again, Aaron Roberts has no choice but to tap out. (Had Tim Bosby lost, he would have been gone from Memphis Wrestling.)

Final IMPACT - IMPACT Wrestling recap for June 29, 2023



Johnny Swinger beats Bhupinder Gujjar following a fast count - and biased refereeing - by referee "Outlandish" Zicky Dice.

Trey Miguel vs. Chris Sabin for the IMPACT Wrestling X Division Championship ends in a no-contest when Sabin is suddenly attacked from behind by Zachary Wentz, who has not been seen since he headed to (and got fired from) WWE. Wentz and Trey gang up on Sabin, then flee when Alex Shelley make the save.



We hear from Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz. Trey says the more things change, the more they stay the same, as it has been three years since The Rascalz have been in Impact. He also says he is after more than X Division gold. Wentz says that the fans abandoned Trey while he had his back, and that he left and went through hell and was abandoned by the fans himself. He says that The Rascalz are back and that they are taking what is theirs.

"The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo guests on commentary for the next match.

Trinity beats Jai Vidal with Starstruck.

Backstage, Moose is met by Brian Myers and The Good Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch). Myers says he is glad Moose came to his senses, and at Slammiversary, they will be the tag team champions. Moose says that with their talents combined, they are guaranteed to win tag team gold, but it is his and Myers', not The Good Hands'. He tells Myers to "ditch the dead weight" and leaves. Myers tells The Good Hands that this is only temporary and leaves. John Skyler asks what happened, and Jason Hotch says "I think we just got jobbed."

Backstage, Johnny Swinger and "Outlandish" Zicky Dice celebrate their victory on tonight's BTI when referee Daniel Spencer shows up and tells them that Swinger's win does not count due to Zicky's fast count, as per Director of Authority Santino Marella. He also warns Zicky that if he does a fast count again, he will be stripped of his referee's license.

Lio Rush beats Jack Prince in his IMPACT debut.

In footage from last week, Dirty Dango says it is his fault that he was hit by the Cobra and that Director of Authority Santino Marella only has a career because Jim Cornette slapped him in the face and "the evil empire" was forced to fire Cornette. Dirty Dango then shows interest in Santino's daughter (who is in WWE as Arianna Grace), asking if "she is being slapped around over there." We hear from Santino Marella, who says Dirty Dango is out of his mind. He says he is the captain of his ship and his hands are tied right now, but after Scott D'Amore is back on the job, he is going to get back in the ring and humiliate him like never before for mocking his career and bringing his daughter into this, and tells him that he will pay.

Backstage, Eddie and Alisha Edwards are confronted by Frankie Kazarian, who says he is having a hard time wrapping his head around what happened in last week's match. Eddie says he tried to be on his side because they are both "Kowalski guys," but Kazarian's ego is too big for them to be a team and they are better off as opponents. Eddie and Alisha then leave.

Masha Slamovich beats KiLynn King after Killer Kelly shows up and chokes Taylor Wilde with a chain. After the match, Masha and Kelly have a staredown in the middle of the ring before tying the other end of the chain around her neck and leaving with Kelly.



We see a video package about Scott D'Amore.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Scott D'Amore. He says he may not be able to jump back comfortably into in-ring action at Slammiversary, but he has been training daily and he feels as ready as he is going to be. He says that he Darren McCarty as special guest enforcer is an interesting choice as there will not be many rules, The Good Hands shows up showing their dissatisfaction with recent events that have happened to them earlier tonight and wanting to give him a receipt. D'Amore mentions that he knows PCO and says he can set them up for a two-on-one handicap match with him next week after he talks to Director of Authority Santino Marella, whom he has a good relationship with.

Before the next match, Joe Hendry is seen in the production truck.

Kenny King beats Yuya Uemura. After the match, Joe Hendry shows up and congratulates Kenny King on winning before saying he has a gift for Kenny King and that it is time that Kenny got more respect around. He then premieres a music video where he makes fun of Kenny being a Chippendale dancer in the past. This leads to a "Stripper Kenny' chant from the fans.



"The National Treasure" Nick Aldis heads to the ring. He says that for two weeks, people have harassed him online and have demanded an explanation for his actions towards Alex Shelley, and states that the time is right for that explanation. Before he can do that, he wants Alex Shelley in the ring, as he has been asking for that explanation, and calls him to the ring so he can give him that explanation to his face. Alex Shelley shows up and tells Aldis that he is standing in his ring, and that nobody cares about his explanation. Aldis says he will have the ring all to himself if he wants his explanation following Shelley's superkick to Jimmy Jacobs. After mentioning that this is "an unsafe work environment," Aldis tells Shelley that he has a seat for him near the Impact fans, since he represents the fans. Shelley says he does not take this as an insult like Aldis thinks he does, as he is their world champion. Shelley then sits with the fans, and Aldis tells Shelley he is starting to believe his own propaganda. He says that he was doing well in their match when Chris Sabin tried to be the hero, found himself in deep water and nearly cost them the match. He says that he was the best candidate for the tag, but he tagged in Shelley instead, and Shelley tried to expose him, calling it a concerted effort to minimize and humiliate him when he was the best man in the match. Aldis says the time to be nice guy was over and time to put Shelley in his place, as Shelley acts like the good guy when he and Sabin have run the place for twenty years and tried to get rid of guys like him "like a fake revolutionary" as soon as he got a seat at the table. He says that Shelley had "a propaganda machine" and tried to take the business into a place that is "very dark and nasty" while he himself was being endorsed by wrestling legends, then says Shelley's reign is over once he exposes him at Slammiversary. Shelley tells Aldis to shut up and that nobody bought a ticket to hear him whine and bitch, and that Aldis will have to come to him and shut him up personally. When Aldis asks if Shelley wants him to come shut his mouth, Shelley says "Yup." After Aldis takes his jacket off, Shelley beats him up on the outside, and this starts a brawl. As Aldis is about to blast Shelley with the World Championship again, Sabin shows up and takes the title away from him. As Aldis walks away, Lio Rush suddenly shows up from behind and attacks Sabin before doing the same to Shelley. Lio Rush and Nick Aldis then go on the attack, and Lio holds Sabin down as Aldis hits Shelley with the World title. Lio Rush then blasts Sabin with the X Division Championship, and both men make their intentions to dethrone Sabin and Aldis known.

Ciampa says that nobody elevates a championship much like he does, and when Thatcher interrupts Carter, telling him to let Ciampa finish, Wes Lee says that they respect the both of them, and Carter tells them to put respect on MSK's name. Wes Lee then says that Ciampa and Thatcher will soon find out why they are the tag team champions, then MSK attack Ciampa and Thatcher only for Wes Lee to be slapped in the face by Thatcher, who is held back by Ciampa.

Ziggler introduces Drew McIntyre as "the man with the audacity not to give [him] what he wants" as well as "the most ungrateful man." McIntyre shows up. After this, the double contract signing begins, with Samoa Joe moderating. Ziggler says McIntyre is WWE Champion because of him, and says that McIntyre would be nowhere without him, as he has carried monsters like McIntyre on his back. Ziggler says he knows McIntyre will do anything to retain the WWE Championship, but at Extreme Rules, McIntyre will hate him when he continues to keep getting up and surviving and destroys his redemption story. Ziggler tells McIntyre that he created him, and that at Extreme Rules, he will destroy him. He then signs the contract, and McIntyre does the same. McIntyre says there was a time that he and Ziggler were like family, and while he admits he was fired and had to go through a lot to become the champion he is today, he has learned that Ziggler wants the WWE title to be the center of attention. He notes that Ziggler has always dropped the ball when he has come so close, and at Extreme Rules, he will hurt and slaughter him. McIntyre says that since Ziggler thinks he has a chance, he can pick the stipulation for their title match. Ziggler says that there is no storybook ending or third chance for McIntyre, then Asuka grabs the microphone and interrupts him before signing the contract for her match.

When Big Show, Zelina Vega says that Andrade and Angel Garza will do Randy Orton a favor when they teach him a lesson, then tells Big Show to say hello to Edge and Christian in the retirement home. Suddenly, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair shows up and says he needs to have a word with Big Show, and says that nobody will handle his career like Randy Orton will, saying that Orton will take him out whenever he feels like it.

Rollins states that instead of his family, Rey's real duty is to be a sacrifice for Raw, yet Rey has defied him at every turn. Rollins then asks Rey to forgive him not for what he has done, but for what he is forcing him to do. Rollins says he and Rey are bound by fate, as as fate would have it, he is the Monday Night Messiah and Rey is meant to be a sacrifice for the greater good of Raw. He says that every time Rey steps into the ring, he will be forced to take a piece of him. He says that little by little, he will tear him apart piece by piece until there is nothing left but a memory. Suddenly, Rey and Dominick are on the TitanTron. Rey asks for forgiveness from Dominick for what he will do to Seth Rollins after what he did to his eye as well as to Dominick, and says he must do something to Seth that is remorseless as what Seth did to him. Rey tells Rollins that what he will do to him is not by fate, but by design. Dominick forgives Rey, but tells Rollins he will never forgive him and that what Rey will do to Rollins will be ordained by fate. Rollins tells Dominick to be careful what he wishes for, for if he continues to stand in the way of the greater good, he will be forced to end his career before it ever begins. Suddenly, Aleister Black and Humberto Carrillo show up and run Rollins and Murphy off. After the commercial break, Rollins wants to know why Aleister Black and Humberto Carrillo keep fighting for Rey when Rey will not fight for them, calling Rey a fraud and a coward when he says Carrillo looks to him like a god. Carrillo says Rollins is the fraud and also less of a man than Rey is, and Aleister says he knows a thing or two about evil and that he recognizes evil when he looks at it. He says there will be no forgiveness; only atonement for what Rollins has done. Rollins tells Aleister that he has seen nothing yet if he thinks he has seen evil, and that this ends now. This starts a match.

MVP says it is important to give back, hence why he is managing Lashley and tapping into the potential he possesses. He says that Apollo Crews has rejected his mentorship and that he will not let Apollo disrespect him, then Apollo shows up and says he is a self-made man like MVP, and says if MVP didn't care about himself, he would have listened to him.
