We hear from The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane). Asuka says Iyo Sky has chosen her "fake family" over them when she is the cause for her WWE success. She asks how her friendship to Rhea Ripley is working out, as Rhea as champion while she is not. She says that it did not have to be this way and that all she had to do was have her by her side. She also says that Iyo Sky has made her choice, and has corrupted Kairi Sane, too. Kairi says that they have beaten Iyo and Rhea once and that they will beat her again.

Pearce makes a shot between Ethan and Je'Von as soon as the argument happens.

We see the Spanish announce team of Marcelo Rodriguez and Jerry Soto. Royce Keys is seen in the crowd.

CM Punk heads to the ring. Punk says he has dealing with a lot of loss during the last six months, some of them part of his WWE family and some of them among friends, and last night, he lost the World Heavyweight Championship. He says that being World Heavyweight Champion gave him an anchor to slow down, and thanks the fans for helping him process all the grief and all the loss, knowing they will help him get through losing his title. He admits he was not supposed to be World Heavyweight Champion, as Seth "Freakin'" Rollins cashed in him, but all of a sudden, opportunity arose, he won number one contendership, and if it he had not become champion, Jey Uso would be here right now. Punk admits he lost last night, but he is still the best in the world, and he proved it even though it was not his night. He then says he will stay ready, as he never knows when another opportunity will fall out of the sky. Suddenly, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes shows up with a black eye. Cody says he did not expect this and that the fans gave Punk the flowers he deserves, but says he feels like a loser right now. Punk says Cody beat a first-ballot hall of famer who was also a friend and mentor, and while beating up someone one hates is easy, beating up a friend is hard. Punk says he is free and shouldered the burden, but last night was not his night. He tells Cody to keep being champion, while he just has to stay ready, as he never knows when another opportunity is just going to fall out of the sky. He tells Cody to keep being champion, while he just has to stay ready, as he never knows when another opportunity is just going to fall out of the sky. As Punk leaves, Cody says "Hey, Punk! Just say when."

We hear from Finn Balor, who says that "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio brought out The Demon, and The Demon put him down. He says he is not done, as Dominik drew blood and was the first to fall. He is not done with The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez, JD McDonagh, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio), and that the betrayal he received from Dominik was unexpected from JD McDonagh. Finn Balor talks about how he mentored McDonagh into one of the greatest performers on Earth and how McDonagh always had his back, only for McDonagh to make his choice and choose Dominik. Tonight, he takes McDonagh out.

"All Ego" Ethan Page beats Je'Von Evans in his Raw debut following the distraction by Rusev. After the match, Rusev attacks Je'Von while Ethan Page leaves the ring and watches, then Rusev puts Je'Von in the Accolade. Penta shows up and fights Rusev, and gets the upper hand. All of a sudden, Ethan Page trips Penta off the top rope, and after Rusev hits Penta with the Machka Kick, Ethan Page tries to endear himself to Rusev only to back off. Rusev then puts Penta in the Accolade before posing with the Intercontinental Championship.

Two-time NBA All-Star Tyrese Haliburton, comedian Funny Marco, Paige and The Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella) are seen in the crowd.

The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez, JD McDonagh, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio) makes their way to the ring. Liv Morgan declares herself the greatest Women's World Championship before thanking the rest of The Judgment Day for their support as well as Stephanie Vaquer for reminding her of a feeling she has not felt in a long time. She says that feeling reminded her of who she is: the greatest woman in WWE. As Liv tells the fans that they have not seen anything yet, Sol Ruca suddenly shows up. Sol Ruca tells Liv that she has been watching her and calls her an inspiration over the past decade as well as the top woman in the division. Liv appreciates the kind words despite the interruption, then says Sol Ruca "is no Liv Morgan." Liv gives Sol Ruca a chance to save herself and leave, and Sol Ruca tells Liv that while she did not come to start a fight, she will not back down from one, either. General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and calls for referee Jessika Carr, then makes a match between Sol Ruca and Liv Morgan that happens right now.

Liv Morgan beats Sol Ruca - the latter now on the main roster - after Sol Ruca is attacked on the outside by Zaria, allowing Liv to hit Ob-Liv-Ion for the win after Sol Ruca barely beats the ten count to get back in the ring. After the match, Stephanie Vaquer shows up and confronts Liv Morgan.

Rappers and podcast hosts Fabolous, Maino, Jim Jones and Dave East are seen in the crowd.

We see a video package of Brock Lesnar's WWE career.

The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Logan Paul, Austin Theory) heads to the ring. Heyman says he had a whole speech prepared, but the beginning of the show threw him off. He says that his favorite part of WrestleMania was expecting the unexpected, and that what happened last night will be in his heart for the rest of his life. He talks about CM Punk kissing everyone's ass and mentions that Brock Lesnar is now in the "now" portion of the WWE into the "forever" portion, as he is done for now and forever will be "the baddest motherfucker on the planet." Heyman then focuses on the now, stating that there is a resurgence in the tag team division thanks to Logan Paul and Austin Theory, then gives Logan Paul the floor. Logan Paul is booed mercilessly as he states that the only reason that The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) and LA Knight stole the victory from them at WrestleMania is because of iShowSpeed, who he calls "backstabbing" and "ungrateful." He says that he is sick of streamers coming into WWE and doing what the Superstars do, and says that he hates the outsiders and that nothing that happened at WrestleMania matters. He also says that iShowSpeed left with a piece of his fist in his face, while he and Austin stayed tag team champions. Heyman says that a magnificent favor was done for him by Gunther, and thanks Gunther before telling him that he owes him one and is ready to repay when he is ready. Heyman then introduces Bron Breakker as the man who broke Seth "Freakin'" Rollins in half. Bron Breakker heads to the ring and talks about how he became the leader of The Vision in tonight's arena one year ago today because Rollins was "too weak," and boasts that he enjoyed ruining everything for Rollins at WrestleMania. He hopes that Rollins is watching somewhere, because from here on out, he will be coming after him and attacking him. Suddenly, Rollins shows up from behind and attacks The Vision with a metal folding chair. Theory hits Rollins with a right hand, and the numbers game quickly takes over. All of a sudden, The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) show up for the first time in months and take out Logan Paul and Austin Theory. The Street Profits take their brawl into the crowd, then a busted open Bron Breakker gets back in the ring to go for a spear on Rollins only for Rollins to superkick him and fight back. Rollins goes for The Stomp, but Breakker avoids it and hits the Spear. He tells Rollins that he will ruin everything Rollins has ever done and that the fans will remember him as a shell of what he used to be before hitting Rollins with another Spear.

We hear from JD McDonagh, who says that he and Finn Balor are supposed to be family, but now Finn Balor has changed so much he barely recognizes him. He says that he stood behind Finn Balor and took bullets for him, but Finn Balor cost them gold, and throwing away their friendship was so easy he would do it again. McDonagh then tells Finn Balor that he will step out of his shadow and prove that the Finn Balor he knew and loved is dead.

We see Trick Williams in the crowd.

Finn Balor beats JD McDonagh. After the match, Finn Balor is attacked from behind by "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, but Finn Balor fends him off. Dominik retreats as Finn Balor goes for a Coup de Grace.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Gunther, who says that he feels fantastic after beating Seth "Freakin'" Rollins at WrestleMania, then says there is no "[him] and Paul Heyman" - even though Heyman still owes him a favor - and that he will get the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist very soon. LA Knight shows up and congratulates Gunther on winning, then tells Gunther that he is not the only one with the eyes on the prize.

Backstage, Rhea Ripley tells Iyo Sky to handle her business on Raw while she becomes the champion SmackDown needs. Iyo Sky tearfully wishes Rhea Ripley luck before they both part ways, then Rhea runs into Liv Morgan, who says that she will see her around. Rhea says she is looking forward to it.

Roman Reigns arrives at the arena and heads to the ring. Along the way, he meets up with The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso), and lets them join in. Roman says he was going to keep it simple and talk about the future, but after seeing his cousins, he decided to handle some family business first. He tells The Usos that he missed having The Usos' full trust, respect and admiration and missed doing business with them, and right now, they are separated and scattered, and they are weak because of it. Roman says that when they come together, nobody can stop them, and it was while they were together that they ran the business for four years straight. He asks The Usos not to serve him, but to stand by him as family. Jimmy Uso says that Roman Reigns will always be his and Jey Uso's Tribal Chiefs and everyone else is "the twos" while they are "the ones." The three of them are about to raise a finger in the air when Jacob Fatu shows up. Roman tells Jacob it has been a long while since he last saw him and that there are only a couple of reasons he would be here. Jacob shows up and makes it clear he needs the World Heavyweight Championship. He also says he does not want to be Tribal Chief, but he wants everything the Tribal Chief has, and he will do anything for his family, even if that means going through Roman. Jacob then states that he is upgrading and levelling up his household at Backlash. Roman says he agrees and wants all of those things for Jacob, too, and has faith that Jacob can beat him. He then asks Jacob if he can handle the burden on being World Heavyweight Champion. He then asks if Jacob can handle the burden of acknowledging him if he loses. Roman tells Jacob that the air at the top is thin and gives Jacob a week to decide, then says he does not think Jacob is ready before he and The Usos leave.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 23, 2026

Je'Von Evans is seen backstage with Internet livestream personality iShowSpeed before the beginning of the show.

Brock Lesnar and "The Oracle" Paul Heyman head to the ring to start tonight's show. Heyman introduces Lesnar, then the "Oba" chants begin. Heyman warns the crowd that they are pissing Lesnar off after Lesnar laid waste to twenty men only to be distracted by Seth "Freakin'" Rollins, causing "a overhyped wannabe ruler" to powerbomb Lesnar. Heyman asks how many times the same narrative has come out of the WWE hype machine regarding big men who will become "the slayer of The Beast" and Brock Lesnar's conquerer since Lesnar broke The Undertaker's undefeated WrestleMania streak. He says that The Undertaker never got revenge on Lesnar, then lists off those who were declared the one to beat Lesnar only to fall and declares that Oba Femi will be just like the rest, saying that Oba has peaked and that Oba will be beaten at WrestleMania. The lights go out, and Oba Femi makes his way to the ring. Oba and Lesnar have a staredown from the opposite ends to the ring to the center, and Lesnar kicks Oba in the gut and goes for an F5 only for Oba to slip out and clothesline him out of the ring.Lesnar is furious, and Heyman is surprised. Heyman holds Lesnar back as the two of them slowly heads towards the back. Lesnar tells Oba Femi that he is not that lucky.

We hear from "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, who says that his match with Penta tonight should not be happening, and if it were not for Finn Balor, he would still be Intercontinental Champion. He says that Finn got what he deserved, and warns Penta that this rematch will not go the same way as last time, for now he can focus and become the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time, because he is the King of the Luchadors.

The Vision (Logan Paul and Austin Theory) beat The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) by disqualification after LA Knight shows up from out of the crowd to attack Logan Paul on the outside, allowing Jey Uso to get his hands on Logan's brass knuckles, which allows - and causes - Jey to punch Theory out in full view of the referee with a foreign object. After the match, Jey gets back in the ring and knocks Logan out with his right hand still in the brass knuckles.

Becky Lynch heads to the ring. Becky says she took ten months off because the fans got sick and tired of seeing her succeed and win world titles, and that she went home to her family who loves and appreciates her. She then says that she made a point when she came back by winning the Women's Intercontinental Championship and making it the most interesting and important title in all of wrestling, and says she is proud of the title and what she made it represent. Becky then says she has to watch AJ Lee prance around like she deserved the title, and when she returned to her sanctuary to take a break with the people she loved, her daughter was singing AJ Lee's theme and skipping around the house just like AJ. Becky states that even her daughter does not recognize that her mother is the greatest wrestler of all time, and states that AJ Lee's greatest claim to fame before that was defining the Divas era that she murdered just like she will do to AJ. AJ Lee shows up, and Becky retreats through the crowd as AJ approaches the ring. AJ wants to know what Becky will not fight her head on, and states that every time they have squared off, she has walked Becky like a dog. She then says that embarrassing Becky one more time and tapping her out at WrestleMania will be what it takes to get Becky away from her title and out of her life once and for all, and makes that match official with the Women's Intercontinental Championship on the line. Becky states that AJ Lee has skipped right into her trap and has no idea what she is in for, and while AJ Lee can shine from Monday to Friday, WrestleMania is her domain. She also mentions AJ Lee leaving WWE after her last WrestleMania, and says that when she takes her title back, she will do AJ the favor and the world will never hear from AJ again.

Backstage, The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) thank LA Knight for the assistance during their match, and LA Knight starts thinking that Jey is sounding like Roman Reigns. Jey takes exception to this, and Jimmy says that CM Punk is about to learn to keep their family's name out of his mouth.

Boston Celtics shooting guard Derrick White and Celtics Head Coach Joe Mazzulla are seen in the crowd.

Je'Von Evans beats Grayson Waller.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce is met by "The Oracle" Paul Heyman, who wants Pearce to schedule a street fight between The Vision (Logan Paul and Austin Theory) and The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) for the World Tag Team Championships next week in Madison Square Garden. Pearce makes it official, then tells Heyman to head to the ring to use his time to address Seth "Freakin'" Rollins. Heyman acquiesces.

"The Oracle" Paul Heyman is in the ring. Heyman says he is having a really bad night, not just because of being relegated to a contractual appearance in Boston, Massachusetts after a 40-year career, but because there is no one left for him to hide behind. He says that Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed will not be coming back any time soon, Brock Lesnar is so pissed off that he left the building, and Logan Paul and Austin Theory are half-conscious while he is dealing with a stalker. He says that stalker is Seth "Freakin'" Rollins and that the both of them are men who have been pushed too far, which means that WWE is not big enough for the both of them. Heyman says this is not a challenge for a WrestleMania match or a challenge for tonight, and he asks what other choice he is left with than for Rollins to put him out of his misery right here, right now. A man in a black hoodie and mask heads towards the ring from out of the crowd, and Heyman says that man has to do what a man has to do as he looks towards the entrance ramp while the man in black is on the announce table. The man in black unmasks himself to reveal himself to be Rollins, and four policemen tell Rollins to get down from the announce table. Rollins gets down from the table and is led out of the building while Heyman tells Rollins he has violated a restraining order and is going to jail and prison while his life falls apart. Rollins then runs away from the cops and punches Heyman out in the ring, and the cops have to force Rollins to the corner and handcuff him. General Manager Adam Pearce is on hand to ensure that Rollins is removed from the building.

Bayley and Lyra Valkyria beat The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane). After the match, Jackie Redmond interviews Bayley and Lyra in the ring. Bayley says they feel pretty good on their way to WrestleMania, and Lyra says that The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax and Lash Legend) have their names in their mouths because they know they can beat them. Bayley challenges The Irresistible Forces to a match next week so they can prove how big and bad they are.

We see NXT Origins featuring Tiffany Stratton.

Backstage, Penta is met by iShowSpeed, and Penta teaches him the strut that he usually does on his way to the ring. Dragon Lee shows up, and Penta introduces iShowSpeed to him. iShowSpeed leaves, then Dragon Lee wishes Penta luck in tonight's match while Penta looks forward to having a rematch with him.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce meets with iShowSpeed when Danhausen shows up. Danhausen proposes that they stream together, and when iShowSpeed refuses, Danhausen curses him and disappears. iShowSpeed has no idea what to make of this as Pearce leaves.

Backstage, Asuka blames Kairi Sane for their loss tonight, and demands Kairi make it up to her. Asuka leaves, then Iyo Sky shows up and admits that while they have had their ups and downs, Kairi deserves better. Asuka then yells for Kairi, who is tormented as she leaves. Raquel Rodriguez shows up, irritated that Iyo Sky cost her the opportunity to beat Stephanie Vaquer. Iyo says she would do it again if given the chance, and Raquel challenges her to a match next week so she can finish what she started. Iyo accepts the challenge.

Before the next match, Liv Morgan is attacked from behind by Stephanie Vaquer, who also punches "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio in the face. Referees show up as the brawl makes its way to gorilla position, and both women have to be separated.

Penta retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio after countering a top rope frog splash with an inside cradle after Finn Balor shows up and beats up JD McDonagh. After the match, Finn Balor beats up Dominik Mysterio, and when JD McDonagh saves Dominik from the Coup de Grace, Finn takes them both out with a tope suicida. Finn goes back to attacking Dominik, and McDonagh saves Dominik once again. Dominik flees through the crowd as JD McDonagh ends up eating a Coup de Grace instead.

Backstage, CM Punk runs into Jimmy Uso. Jimmy says he is not telling him what to do before warning him to be careful, as his brother is on the warpath. CM Punk then heads to the ring. Punk mentions Jimmy Uso's warning, then says that Roman Reigns cannot do anything without his cousins and that the family cannot do anything without back-up, including being World Heavyweight Champion. He mentions Roman's threat that his whole family can come after him if they so choose, but none of them have looked at him cross. Punk says that people say and do awful things to each other to sell the big title fight, but these are just words, and he is tired of talking. Punk then mentions Roman calling him "old," then says that his "young boy" does not get to disrespect him and call him old. He then says that he is old, but he is also proud of where he is in life and being "middle aged and crazy" like Terry Funk. Punk compares himself to other middle-aged sports legend, then says that he is "Mr. Game 7" and proclaims that age is nothing but a number. He says he is old, but not insecure, and if Roman only sees an old man, he has already understimated him and lost. He warns Roman Reigns that he will tie him into knots and that Roman will be beaten by "the old man" at WrestleMania, then mentions that both "Main Event" Jey Uso and Gunther did not underestimate him and they still lost. Jey Uso shows up, tells Punk that he is old, hit in the head too many times and still running his mouth, especially about him. He says they can do it right now, and Punk mentions that Jey never got his rematch and that he can do this right now. All of a sudden, Jimmy Uso shows up and asks Jey what he is doing, saying that he understands how he feels, yet when he is angry, he sees red, and now their tag team titles are on the line. He tells Jey to leave Punk to Roman, as they have nothing to do with him. Jey says Punk has everything to do with him, then asks where Roman is, stating he is not even in the building. All of a sudden, Roman Reigns shows up, and he and CM Punk have a staredown. Roman says that last time he checked, The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) already had a tag match, and since it is done, he respectfully tells Jimmy to get Jey and leave the ring. Punk says The Usos can stay, as Roman can use the help. This leads to Punk getting ganged up on and Superman Punched, and General Manager Adam Pearce shows up with referees to get The Usos and Roman Reigns out of the ring. Jey tells Roman to "smash 'em all" and get Punk, and Roman finally snaps and hits Punk with a Spear. Roman continues to attack Punk, then powerbombs him through the announce table. Roman grabs Punk and asks him what he is going to do now before leaving.

Here are the top ten moments from tonight's show!

Raw Deal - Raw recap for January 12, 2026

Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley head to the ring to start tonight's show. Rhea announces that they have put The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) and are now the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions. The crowd chants "You deserve it!" before Iyo stating that The Kabuki Warriors have no respect until she and Rhea beat it into them, then says that nobody is ready for "Rhiyo." As Rhea throws down a challenge to any women's tag team that wants to step up, Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez show up to congratulate Rhea and Iyo before Liv declares that the Women's Tag Team Championships still belong to her and that she lost them. She demands that Rhea and Iyo give the titles back or else she will take them back. Suddenly, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria appear and head to the ring. Bayley welcomes Rhea and Iyo back to Raw and says that while Liv did not lose the women's tag titles, Roxanne did, and since she beat Roxanne a few weeks ago, she and Lyra deserve a women's tag team title shot. Rhea is okay with that after throwing down a challenge, then Iyo says "I've got this" and chews out the two others in Japanese until The Kabuki Warriors suddenly show up, pull Rhea and Iyo out of the ring, and brawl with the other two teams. Rhea and Iyo get back in the ring and soon send everyone else packing.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles. Styles says that when he got into the business, he learned it was all about respect for the ring, the opponent and those who came before. He admits that he and John Cena were not always on the same page, but they bonded over respect, and Gunther has disrespected Cena. He says he slapped the taste out of Gunther's mouth because Cena could not, then proclaims that he will teach Gunther learn about respect and make it a hill worthy dying on before promising to make Gunther tap out like a little bitch.

Backstage, Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez run into Finn Balor being pre-occupied with WWE 2K25. Liv says she and Roxanne are no longer waiting for a title shot, then says it is time to stop playing games. Liv leaves, then Roxanne says that Liv has a point before following suit.

Je'Von Evans beats Bravo Americano. After the match, Rayo Americano gets on the apron, and when Je'Von goes after him, El Grande Americano pulls Je'Von out of the way and tosses him over the announce table. Je'Von soon stands up on the announce table, jumps over all three Americanos, and makes a beeline to the entranceway.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce speaks with a referee before Paul Heyman shows up. Pearce wants Heyman to tell Bron Breakker that he is not in the mood for whatever he has planned. Heyman says he will let Breakker know if Breakker shows up with bad intentions.

CM Punk heads to the ring. Punk tells the fans that he will never tire of being World Heavyweight Champion and plans to hold the title forever, but this is the long road to WrestleMania and anything can happen, if "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes is any indication. He says that just because he plans to be champion forever does not mean it will happen, but with the fans on his side, it feels possible. Punk says he promised to be a fighting champion, and with the Royal Rumble and the Elimination Chamber on the horizon, the road to WrestleMania goes through him. He talks about his battle last week with Bron Breakker and says it is time for the champ to "do champ stuff" and find out who his next challenger is now that The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Austin Theory) is in his rear view mirror. All of a sudden, Finn Balor shows up and heads to the ring, and tells Punk that he is not waiting for the Royal Rumble or the Elimination Chamber before reminding Punk that he listed him as one of the people he wanted to face. Punk says Finn is correct, but wants to know where Finn's ambition is, as he has helped everyone but himself and has been playing video games in the back. Punk wants to know if he will be facing Finn Balor or "Finn Balor from The Judgment Day" (Finn Balor, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez) before telling Finn that he is a man of his word and that they will do this tonight. Finn says that he has been around long enough to know that time ends everything, then says that he is not jumping the line because the line starts with him. He tells Punk not to worry about The Judgment Day, but that he will not be alone, as he has watched Punk's career and watched him claim hometown advantage in Chicago, Illinois. He says that next week's show is in Belfast, Northern Ireland and that WWE will have an Irish world champion. Punk apologizes to the fans in Dusseldorf, Germany for Finn disappointing them when they wanted to see the champ work, then apologizes in advance to the fans in Belfast when he puts one of their countrymen to sleep with a GTS and remains World Heavyweight Champion.

The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez) beats The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) and the team of Bayley and Lyra Valkyria in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match to become #1 contenders for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships.

We hear from Becky Lynch. She says it has only been one week since she took her title back, yet Maxxine Dupri has gotten a rematch in one week for the title that took her two months to reclaim. She says that AJ Lee and referee Jessica Carr screwed her out of the Women's Intercontinental Championship and calls it part of the corruption that is allowed under "Powerhouse Pearce." Becky says she will do what she always does and turn lemons into lemonade, because next week in Belfast, Northern Ireland, she will prove that she is the best. She hopes that Maxxine Dupri has enjoyed her time in the spotlight, because next week, it ends, and Maxxine will say goodbye to the big time.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Alpha Academy (Maxxine Dupri, Otis, Akira Tozawa). Maxxine admits she is disappointed to lose the Women's Intercontinental Championship , but being champion proved that she belonged. Maxxine says that she learned how to believe in herself in order to become champion and that it is time that Otis and Tozawa do the same before calling what happened last week "a setback" and not a defeat, and while she is fully aware that Becky Lynch is the greatest of all time, she had to cheat to beat her. Next week, she will break Becky's ankle in an ankle lock.

Michael Cole interviews Raquel Rodriguez on the stage. Raquel says that she was screwed out of the Women's World Championship, yet everyone wants to feel sorry for Stephanie Vaquer. Raquel states that she will not stop until she gets Vaquer in the ring, and when she stands tall as Women's World Champion, then everyone can feel sorry for Vaquer. Stephanie Vaquer shows up with mulitple officials trying to beg her off, and Raquel Rodriguez heads to the back. As Vaquer says that her injury will not stop her and dares anyone to face her, Raquel suddenly rushes back to Vaquer and attacks her.

Backstage, "Main Event" Jey Uso in the phone with Jimmy Uso when Alpha Academy (Otis and Akira Tozawa) show up wanting a piece of Jimmy and Jey for the World Tag Team Championships. Jey says he and Jimmy will talk and see what happens, but warns Alpha Academy that they are stepping with the best tag team in the game.

Penta and Dragon Lee beat The Vision ("Big" Bronson Reed and Austin Theory) by disqualificaton after Dragon Lee is suddenly speared by Bron Breakker on the outside in full view of the referee. After the match, a vicious Breakker hits Penta with another Spear in the ring. When Breakker goes for another Spear on Dragon Lee on the outside, General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and stops Bron Breakker, telling him that this is not happening tonight. As this goes on, "Big" Bronson Reed hits Penta with a Tsunami. Pearce chews out Bronson, but that allows Breakker to hit another Spear on Penta. Pearce chews out Breakker again after forcefully turning him around, and this time, Breakker grabs Pearce and forces him into the corner, and the rest of The Vision have to hold Breakker back as Breakker dares Pearce to do something. At this point, Pearce wants Breakker gone.

Backstage, Je'Von Evans meets with Penta and Dragon Lee at medical and asks them to tell him if they need anything.

Backstage, an angry General Manager Adam Pearce indefinitely suspends Bron Breakker for putting his hands on him. "Big" Bronson Reed has to physically seperate Breakker from Pearce. "The Oracle" Paul Heyman shows up tells Pearce this was a mistake, as Pearce put his hands on Breakker first.

We see WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque going through celebrity WrestleMania pitches only to immediately regret it.

We see a vignette for Oba Femi.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Gunther, who calls "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles disrespectful for slapping him in the face for something he had no involvement in, especially after he made John Cena tap out like a little bitch. He says that if he could make Cena tap out, then Styles should be worried about what will happen to him after the bell rings.

Gunther beats "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles. During the match, Styles feels Gunther tap his hand on his left hip as he has him in the Calf Crusher, and Styles is convinced that he has won by submission even though referee Rod Zapata did not see Gunther tap out. As the referee tells the timekeeper that the match is continuing, Gunther hits Styles with a low blow before powerbombing him for the pin and the win.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce congratulates Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky on the championship win, then meets Gunther and reminds him that tonight is a big night and that a little respect goes a long way. Gunther heads to the ring, and after the commercial break, mentions that he has been asked by management to show a little bit of respect as the fans boo him, then asks about respect for him for making John Cena tap out. Before he can finish the sentence with "Like a little bitch," "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles shows up and heads to the ring.

Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for January 2, 2026

The Miz suddenly hijacks the start of the show to air his 2025 grievances, saying that no one will move on to 2026 until he does. He takes exception to not facing John Cena one last time and not being the one to tap him out. He talks about how he offered his advice and expertise to younger talent, who he says should be chomping at the bit to learn him from him, only to be met with ungratefulness and entitlement. He says that respect is not demanded, it is expected. The Miz also mentions Joe Hendry and R-Truth ruining his last SmackDown of 2025 and bringing back the "tiny balls" nickname, then says there is a silver lining and that John Cena is gone in 2026, saying nobody wants to see Cena anymore. He declares himself the new face of WWE, saying that unlike Buffalo, New York, he actually wins championships. Miz lists his accomplishments as a double Grand Slam champion, and says he is the locker room leader and the adult in the room full of brats. Suddenly, Randy Orton shows up and bumps into The Miz, who is suddenly happy to see him back on SmackDown as he says that they are both the locker room leaders, the faces of WWE and the adults in the room. The Miz then proposes they could both be "Miz-K-O," but gets met with an RKO. Orton hen comically shakes Miz's hand and pats him on the chest before wishing him a happy new year and hitting him with another RKO.

Backstage, The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) are met by Nia Jax and Lash Legend.

He hopes to stuff Aleister in an ambulance and send him to the ER, for he will be the one to fade to black.

We hear from The Wyatt Sicks (Bo Dallas, Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Nikki Cross). Bo Dallas asks Solo Sikoa what the meaning of family is, as he has been searching for that since The Bloodline split up and has claimed that The Wyatt Sicks are not a family. He says that Solo has not taken the time to contemplate the force he is up against and mocks what he does not understand. He says that his family is not made up of who he sees, and that it is filled with millions of Fireflies around the world who will always remember. He says it is time to chop down Solo's family tree at the root, for when the dust settles, The Wyatt Sicks will be the ones.

Sami Zayn heads to the ring. Sami admits he feels good to be back after the last couple of weeks after watching John Cena's last match with his son in the front row, and admits that the match made him realize that while John Cena has won a world title seventeen times, he has not won one. He says that as long as his son has been able to watch wrestling, his son has been confused as to why he has never been world champion. Sami then says he is not here to talk about being world champion; he is here to do it. After Sami declares that he is coming for the WWE Championship, Trick Williams suddenly shows up and announces that he has finally arrived before introducing himself to Sami.

We hear from Aleister Black and Zelina Vega.

We see a video package for Oba Femi.

He says he shows up with the WWE Championship early so that everybody can "see [him] seeing them," then says that while Drew McIntyre reeks of envy, he is grateful that McIntyre is a mountain to climb and cannot wait to have their fight. Cody then says that he sees McIntyre as lunch while he sees himself as the champion, and that this will not change in Berlin, Germany. McIntyre appears on the TitanTron and says Cody is so predictable because he is old-school and traditional and that Cody is "as vanilla as it gets," then says he has come up with the best way to hurt him. McIntyre finally names the Three Stages of Hell's stipulations. The first match will be a straight wrestling match, but in the second match, falls will count anywhere. He then says that if the match goes to a third fall, it will end in an old-fashioned steel cage where two men enter and one champion leaves. McIntyre says that is assuming Cody is still champion, then admits that he has been in Cody's tour bus and that one item inside stood out more than any other: a picture of Cody with his father Dusty Rhodes. McIntyre says that he wishes Dusty was still here today to see the man Cody has become, then says Dusty would be ashamed and hopes Dusty has a coat when Hell freezes over after he becomes champion before throwing the picture frame down and stomping it to pieces.

Damian Priest heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Priest says the last few days have not been easy due to John Cena's retirement, as Cena has inspired so many and has become the greatest of all time, to which he says "Thank you, Cena." He then addresses how he and Rhea Ripley dropped Aleister Black and Zelina Vega, saying that business has been handled. As he looks to 2026, Zelina's laughter is heard. Zelina calls Priest a hypocrite and says that getting Rhea Ripley to fight his battles does not make him a real man, especially when he did not get the pin, and states that Priest cannot stand the fact that Aleister broke him. She says that Priest made his decision and now he will have to live with Aleister's. Priest is attacked from behind by Aleister, which starts a brawl. Priest hits South of Heaven on the ring apron on the outside, then pulls a table out from under the ring. Aleister strikes back with a metal folding chair after Priest sets the table up, then counters a potential South of Heaven into the table by shoving Priest into the ring post and kicking him.

We see footage of General Manager Nick Aldis - with police - meeting with Drew McIntyre at the latter's home. Aldis offers McIntyre a WWE Championship match, but asks for a public apology to referee Dan Engler. He also mentions that McIntyre's payday from Survivor Series will cover his fine. McIntyre declines, saying this is what "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes and Nick Aldis wants and that he will be screwed again and that SmackDown has unsafe working conditions. He wants to pick the stipulation for the WWE title match, and wants no physicality before the match from cody or else Cody is stripped of the WWE title.

He states that what will happen will force Solo and his family to surrender.

"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes heads to the ring. He admits to what he did at Drew McIntyre's home, then mentions McIntyre's comments of SmackDown being an unsafe working environment and asks if Staples would be a safe environment for him. Cody says that brawl at McIntyre's home was a tenth of what would happen in the ring, then General Manager Nick Aldis shows up and says that while McIntyre is full of crap, Cody made McIntyre's point for him and got the both of them in a lot of trouble. He says that he had to make a bad deal with McIntyre and reminds Cody is not above the law, and that he cannot help him with that, then tells Cody cannot lay a finger on McIntyre or else he will be stripped of the WWE Championship. Cody guarantees that he will not touch McIntyre, but in the spirit of all these demands, he says that Aldis has forgotten who he is talking to and that as long as he has the WWE title, he is the law. He says that he works for the fans, not for Aldis, and that Aldis works for him before leaving.

We hear from Solo Sikoa, who says that Uncle Howdy talked a bunch of nonsense that means nothing, then says they have a problem when he threatens his family. He says he does not play games when it comes to his family, and that he will embarrass him in front of the whole world. He says the fireflies are here and that they will watch The MFTs (Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga, JC Mateo) take the tag team titles, as he has the whole world in his hands.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for November 10, 2025

WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque is in the ring to start tonight's show. Triple H says that we are living in a magical time and that everyone, whether it is fans, talent, the media or who is running things in the back, has an opinion over who the best wrestler of all times. He says that there are a lot of categories and criteria to judge who is the best by, but they are all subjective, and he has the ability to see it from many sides as a fan, wrestler, businessman and promoter. Triple H then says that tonight is one of those nights where everybody can agree on one things despite the many sides and angles he can view it from: John Cena is the single biggest asset the business has ever seen and the greatest of all time. He then introduces John Cena to the ring. Cena says that tonight is an amazing night and addresses who he would like his final opponent to be, then says that this is a team effort and that this is not possible without the fans. Cena states that his final match has been brought up a lot, but one person has asked him what to do with his retirement tour. He says he wants to leave wrestling better than he found it and that WWE have allowed him to do that and the fans have put up with him over the years. Cena says that the participants in the Last Time Is Now Tournament will be able to showcase their skills in an effort to be the one to retire him. He then proclaims that at Saturday Night's Main Event on December 13th, it will be the night that closes one chapter and gives a night of opportunity and a chance for Superstars to shine. He also says that the brightest stars NXT have to offer will be there. Cena states that this night will also pave the road head, which is what he wanted to do with this tour, then admits that he wanted to come to Boston, Massachusetts one more time after his history with WWE in the town as a fan and as a performer. As Cena tells the fans in Boston that he wanted to thank them for their support, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio suddenly shows up. Dominik speaks Spanish at the first, then wants to know what Triple H will do after his championship celebration was interrupted last week by a deadbeat, then says he interrupts "old man celebrations" and says that whatever is going on is not as important as him. Cena sizes up the situation, but Dominik says it is not about him or Boston and tells him to stay in the corner, let grown folk handle business and only speak when spoken to or else he will put him down. Cena tells Dominik "Fine speech," then tells Domink that he has forgotten where he is and who he is talking to, and while he would give Dominik a chance in any other town, he is invincible tonight in Boston, and tells Dominik to pick his words carefully or else he will lose the fight he is trying to pick. Cena tells Dominik "Wrong time, wrong place, wrong guy," then - out of the respect he has for Rey Mysterio - he will give Dominik a chance to walk back to the back. Dominik says Cena will need more than magic to touch him, because he is not even at his peak and he is better than Cena ever was in his prime. He says that at any time, any place in any era, he would have whooped Cena's ass, which leads to "You fucked up!" chants from the crowd before Triple H says that he agrees with them and says this is a good era, a good place and "a hell of a time." Triple H then puts Dominik Mysterio in a match against John Cena right here, right now with the Intercontinental Championship on the line before calling for a referee and making the match official.

John Cena beats "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio to become the WWE Intercontinental Champion and a Grand Slam Champion! During the match, the first referee is knocked out when John Cena inadvertently hits him with Dominik's feet as he goes for an Attitude Adjustment, and Cena makes Dominik submit to the STF for nothing as there is no referee. Another referee shows up, and this time, Cena is able to hit the Attitude Adjustment following the 619 and a top rope frog splash from Dominik Mysterio to win the match and the one championship that, until now, he has never held in WWE. Cena thanks the fans in Boston, Massachusetts after the match.

Maxxine gets her shot at the Women's Intercontinental Championship next week. After Pearce leaves, Becky shows up and punches Maxxine before telling her she does not stand a chance.

CM Punk heads to the ring. Punk calls out Logan Paul for his actions last week so he can kick his ass, saying that he is willing to fight in the streets of Boston, Massachusetts if he has to. Logan Paul shows up and says that getting punched in the face by Floyd Mayweather is nothing compared to getting squashed by "Big" Bronson Reed, and says that if you do not conform to The Vision (Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed), you are getting cracked every week. Logan says that he is not in the mood for getting cracked, then says that he thought he knew it all until he was opened to a whole new vision after being splashed by Bronson Reed. The Vision then shows up and stands beside Logan. Heyman calls Punk the single, most unlikable human being he has ever seen in his life as The Vision approach the ring, and says Punk is friendless because Punk betrays his friendships. He calls Punk a miserable bastard and the most unlikable person he has ever seen, and that he could not be any more unlikable unless his name was AJ Lee. Puk says that if AJ was here, she would leave The Vision in a puddle of piss and blood. Punk then says that all falls on him since AJ is not here, then dares all four men to get in the ring. Suddenly, "Main Event" Jey Uso shows up and stands alongside Punk, and they are joined in turn by "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. This soon starts a brawl all around the ring, and Punk almost gets his hands on Heyman. All three men lay out Bronson Reed, and The Vision have no choice but to back off.

After the match, Nia and Lash attack Charlotte and Alexa. The Kabuki Warriors get back in the ring to have a staredown with Nia and Lash at first, then all four of them attack the former champions until Iyo Sky runs to the ring.

Nia and Lash soon get the upper hand and go back on the attack with The Kabuki Warriors until Rhea Ripley rushes in wearing a protective facemask and evens the numbers game.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for November 3, 2025

CM Punk heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Punk thanks AJ Lee, the fans and "Main Event" Jey Uso, for their support in becoming World Heavyweight Champion again. He hopes that he and Jey can become friends, but he will not cry if it is not meant to be, as he is not here to make friends; he is here to make money. He says that he does not know how much time he has left, and that he must hold on to the World Heavyweight Championship as tightly as he can. He says that there is no Seth "Freakin'" Rollins in the snakes waiting to cash in on him before mimicking how Rollins has swung the title around from one end. After warning that he will put Rollins back on the couch if he gets back in his business, Punk says that with a crown comes a target, and if he is not the best in the world on any given day, he can lose the World Heavyweight Championship. He knows that Bron Breakker and "Big" Bronson Reed and coming for his title, then says that he wants to be a fighting champion as there are a lot of people he wants to punch in the face, The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed) being three of them. Punk says he wants to face the best WWE has to offer such as "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, Sheamus, and John Cena, then tells anyone who has earned or deserved a title shot to get in line, as the champ is here. Logan Paul suddenly shows up, much to CM Punk's chagrin, and Punk tells him to go to SmackDown and face Ilja Dragunov for the WWE United States Championship. Logan calls himself a Ferrari nobody can afford and Punk a used Honda Civic with over 300,000 miles, then brags about beating John Cena at WrestleMania and says he deserves it before The Vision shows up. Paul Heyman announces that The Vision are about to head to the ring, stating that he sees "a bitch without an owner" in Logan Paul and that "Big" Bronson Reed is the one who belongs at the front of the line. He also states that Bron Breakker belongs at the front of the line as well before stating that Logan is part of the line waiting to get in line for an opportunity for the World Heavyweight Championship and reminding Punk he did not lose "their title." Heyman tells Logan Paul that he is at the wrong place at the wrong time and to get to stepping now, but Logan Paul tells The Vision that he was here first and that they should have gotten here faster. Breakker says Heyman bought everybody two weeks to live after he and Bronson dropped Rollins in the dirt, then tells Punk he had his moment and that he is not waiting anymore. Bronson says he is coming for what belongs to him and that nothing else stands in his way but CM Punk and "a dumbass YouTube who thinks he's tough," and tells them to get out of his ring before he whips them both like a dog. Punk tells Logan it is time to fight, and to either fight with him or get out of his ring. Logan gets out of the ring, but Bronson and Breakker get in his way. Breakker shoves Logan before he and Bronson gang up on Punk. As Punk is attacked, Logan Paul gets in the ring and fights The Vision only to get ganged up on as well. Bronson hits Logan with the Tsunami just before Punk gets back in the ring with a metal folding chair, forcing Bronson and Breakker to retreat.

The Judgment Day (Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez) beat Stephanie Vaquer and Nikki Bella.

We hear from John Cena, who talks about who he wants to face in his last match. He says he wants to face whoever is willing to step up to take the opportunity that he stepped up to take on his first day. He announces a 16-man tournament with randomly chosen participants from Raw, SmackDown, NXT and elsewhere with men he has a history with as well as men he has never faced, with the winner facing him at the next Saturday Night's Main Event on December 13th.

Backstage, CM Punk runs into "Main Event" Jey Uso. Jey admits he has been all over the place, and says he saw what happened tonight and should have been there.

Penta beats El Grande Americano after both Rayo and Bravo get ejected from ringside for getting physically involved in the match and Penta is able to counter El Grande Americano's loaded headbutt. After the match, Penta outsmarts Rayo and Bravo.

We hear from The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane). Asuka says everyone needs to recognize that she is the one true legend of the women's division and that what they did last week was just a small taste of what they are capable of. She says that they will keep tearing the division apart until they are given a Women's Tag Team Championship match, and that they have not forgotten about Bayley. Asuka says she let Bayley walk away, but her kindness will not last much longer, as The Kabuki Warriors will do whatever it takes to become Women's Tag Team Champions.

"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio heads to the ring. Dominik says that he proved without a doubt that he is the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time, the greatest AAA Mega Champion, and the greatest luchador of all time, and that there is no man who can stop him. All of a sudden, Rey Mysterio shows up. He tells Dominik he can say he is the best of all time all he wants, but he draws the line at Dominik says he is king of the luchadores, as he considers that an insult. Rey mentions some of the great luchadores of the last thirty years, including Eddie Guerrero. Dominik tells Rey to keep his father's name out of his mouth, then tells Rey that he did not consider himself among the best. Rey says he will not stand here and let Dominik disrespect lucha libre, but Dominik says that Rey is jealous and "already stealing his mustache" and that Rey is cashing in because he made the Mysterio name relevant. He also says that he has already surpassed everything Rey has done in every way, shape or form, then asks if he has to kick his ass again before telling him to get out of the ring. Rey says that as long as he is around, Dominik will never be king of the luchadores, the ring will never be Dominik's, and Dominik will never be the greatest Mysterio. Dominik pretends to turn around to hit a cheap shot, and this leads to a brawl where Rey gets the upper hand. Rey hits the 619, but Dominik rolls out of the ring before Rey can hit the top rope splash.

Backstage, Lyra Valkyrie meets up with Bayley. Bayley says they have a match to focus on and that they can talk about The Kabuki Warriors' (Asuka and Kairi Sane) actions from last week later.

Becky Lynch suddenly stands on the announce desk and states that The Vision have lost their minds and lost everything while she is dealing with a crooked referee who is hell-bent on holding her down while General Manager Adam Pearce has sent her home to cool down. She claims that New Mexico is only cool because of Breaking Bad and says that Maxxine Dupri does not belong in WWE, and that one survives by being good, not by being lucky, then says she is the greatest women's wrestler of all time and that the wrestling media says she is. Becky says she is a lifelong student of the game and that Maxxine Dupri is not a test one can cram for, then warns Maxxine Dupri that if she makes one wrong move, it will be her last. Becky then has a staredown with The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) as they are on their way to the ring for the next match.

The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) beat Bayley and Lyra Valkyria by submission with an Asuka Lock from Asuka to Bayley. After the match, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss rush into the ring as The Kabuki Warriors are about to attack Bayley and Lyra Valkyria, and The Kabuki Warriors retreat.

Raquel and Roxanne tell Dominik to be in their corner and make it up to them.

"The Phenomenal" AJ Styles and Dragon Lee retain the World Tag Team Championships against The Judgment Day (Finn Balor and JD McDonagh) after "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio's interference attempts backfire and Sheamus shows up to take out Dominik.

Backstage, Nikki Bella catches up with Stephanie Vaquer to apologize for tonight's loss. Vaquer says it is okay and that she is ready to defend her title, but Nikki feels like she is making bad decisions since her return. Vaquer tells Nikki she is still amazing and that she paved the way for this division. Nikki wishes Vaquer luck in her championship defense.

We see another casino-related advertisement for WrestleMania 42.

Backstage, Paul Heyman meets up with "Main Event" Jey Uso, saying that he cannot figure out why Jey would want to team up with CM Punk. Jey says that Punk faced him one-on-one, man-to-man, then says that he is focused on what he himself says. Heyman warns Jey that anyone who does not conform to The Vision will be dealt with at the door, then tells Jey that does not apply to him because he has a vision all his own. He wishes Jey luck tonight, then leaves.

General Manager Adam Pearce announces that the first two opening matches in The Last Time Is Now Tournament are Rusev vs. Damian Priest and Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Sheamus. He then announces that SmackDown Nick Aldis will draw the names for the next two opening matches in the tournament later this week on SmackDown.

"Main Event" Jey Uso and CM Punk vs. The Vision (Bron Breakker and "Big" Bronson Reed) ends in a double count-out. After the match, both teams continue to brawl, and the brawl ends with a Spear and Tsunami to Jey Uso.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for September 1, 2025

Backstage at the arena entrance, General Manager Adam Pearce tells CM Punk to wait inside, but Punk says there is only one way in and out and that it is on sight when he sees Seth "Freakin'" Rollins. Pearce says "Have it your way."

"Main Event" Jey Uso heads to the ring. Jey says he should have the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist, but instead, he has medical tape. He says he should have listened to Roman Reigns' advice, but he does not play when it comes to his family: do not talk about his family, do not disrespect his family, and do not put his hands on his family. He says that Roman is laid up in the hospital, then calls The Vision (Seth "Freakin'" Rollins, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed) out. LA Knight shows up instead. Knight says he believed in himself and believed he would be World Heavyweight Champion, but he stands as a loser. He says everyone else lost that match, and while he does not know about Jey living in Jimmy Uso's shadow, he says that Seth lives in his wife's. He says this did not have to happen, as they had the chance to take the title off Rollins, but Jey spoiled everything. Knight says he is sick and tired of being left laying and not being World Heavyweight Champion, and if Jey will stand in his way and have a tough time understand, he can get him up to speed "real damn quick." Jey says "Talk to me, Uce," but before Knight can explain, Breakker and Bronson show up. Knight notices that Rollins is absent and tells them to go back to the back if they cannot make a coherent sentence, but Breakker says he is coherent enough to beat Knight twice before mentioning that Roman Reigns also put Paul Heyman in the hospital. He says that should be concerned that Heyman is not here because there is nobody to hold him and Bronson back, and that they are going to put Knight and Jey in the hospital next to Roman. Bronson tells the fans to acknowledge their "Tribal Thief" but is met by "Fuck you, Bronson" chants, then brags about how he and Breakker beat down Roman like no one ever has because the vision does not include Roman and the vision does not include Jey or Knight, and for that, Jey and Knight are next. Breakker says Jey and Knight are a couple of smart guys, then proposes they have a tag team match tonight before Breakker questions their health and their courage. Knight puts his rivalry with Jey aside for the tag team match, and Jey accepts the challenge.

We are introduced to the French commentary team of Philippe Chéreau and Christopher Agius. It is announced that Raw will be live from France again in January.

Backstage, Iyo Sky meets with The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane). Iyo Sky apologizes for last week, but Asuka says it is okay because they are family. She says they will take care of The Judgment Day (Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez) for her, and when Iyo asks if they need help, Asuka says that unlike Rhea Ripley, they do not need help. Iyo says she is done with Rhea before they head to the ring.

The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) beat The Judgment Day (Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez) by submission with an Asuka Lock from Asuka to Roxanne.

Backstage, Iyo Sky meets Nikki Bella, who wishes her luck before The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) show up and tell Iyo they will help her with Stephanie Vaquer. Iyo says she can beat Stephanie by herself, but Asuka reminds her that she lost in their last match and tshe and Kairi will be tag team champions again.

Backstage, Finn Balor and JD McDonagh run into "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, who says that he was ringside at their match in spirit while preparing for "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, who says is still on his case. Suddenly, General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and states that Finn and McDonagh are banned from ringside in Dominik's match.

The War Raiders (Ivar and Erik) and Penta beat The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) and Grayson Waller in a six-man tag match.

Backstage, Cathy Kelley interviews Rhea Ripley. Rhea says she respects both Iyo Sky and Stephanie Vaquer and believes they deserve their championship match, but she will do whatever it takes to earn a shot at the Women's World Championship. All of a sudden, The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) show up, and Asuka questions Rhea wanting a title shot before Iyo even has her match. Rhea says she does not know why Asuka has a problem with her, then says that she wants to be champion like everyone else and that her friendship with Iyo has nothing to do with it. Asuka says they are not friends and to stay away. Rhea says she is trying to play nice for Iyo's sake, but tells Asuka not to push her. Asuka says she has known her for ten years and that she will push anyone she wants. Rhea dares Asuka to try her, but Asuka says nobody is ready for her, even Rhea.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce is met by Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez. Roxanne wants to be in the Women's World Championship match, but Pearce reminds her and Raquel that they just lost tonight. When Lyra Valkyria shows up, she has a verbal spat with Roxanne and Raquel over Bayley over Pearce dismisses Roxanne and Raquel. Pearce then tells Lyra that Bayley will be coming back, then Lyra wants a match with either Roxanne or Raquel next week over the disrespect from earlier. Pearce makes the match official.

"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles following an attack on Styles on the outside by El Grande Americano as Dominik distracts the referee while Styles goes for the Phenomenal Forearm.

It is announced that Paul Heyman suffered a larynx contusion and that Roman Reigns is out indefinitely with multiple fractured ribs after Clash in Paris.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews LA Knight. Knight says it may not be the best decision to be in tonight's match, but he cannot stop, and if he has to do this to get to the World Heavyweight Championship, he will do it. He then says he and "Main Event" Jey Uso can die together or die apart, then says that if one does dirt, one gets dirt. "Main Event" Jey Uso suddenly appears and says he comes from the dirt and that since "Big" Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker got Roman, he has them. Jey tells Knight to stay out of his way and there will be no problems.

Backstage, CM Punk is talking with Rhea Ripley when General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and says Seth "Freakin'" Rollins is somehow in the building. Punk says he will handle this.

We hear from Rusev. Rusev says Sheamus called him a bully and he called his bluff; Rusev says he is a beacon and a source of inspiration for the children. He says the world says to be kind, but he says to be one of a kind, and to be like Rusev. As for Sheamus, he brought his Irish body, but his French spirit showed up and he made him cave. He says he will be the bigger man towards Sheamus and that they can be friends again with Sheamus knowing that his place is beneath his feet. He says he was scary when he was held back, but he is devastating now.

CM Punk is in the ring. He hijacks the show until Seth "Freakin'" Rollins shows up and faces him man-to-man, and Rollins' music hits. Instead of Rollins, however, he gets Becky Lynch, and Becky says that she is man Punk will have to deal with. Punk tells Becky that this has nothing to do with her and to tell Rollins to get in the ring, but Becky says this has everything to do with her. Punk wants nothing to do with this, but Becky demands that Punk listen to what she has to say. She says he has had to listen to Punk tell lies about her husband Rollins, but Punk says Rollins is a coward. Becky says Rollins has sacrificed more for the business than Punk will ever know and that Rollins is everything Punk is not. At this point, Punk has had enough of Becky, who says that the CM Punk chants proved that nobody cared about what she was doing or the work that she was putting in. She also says that she got herself to WrestleMania and that she and Rollins brought the business to where it is today, which leads to "Shut the fuck up" chants from the crowd. Becky then says Punk needs to get out of the way as Punk is not what the business needs and does not fit the vision. Punk say the vision is a bit blurry, then says everyone continues to chant his name in the towns he was in, then says that Rollins and Becky were not there when he was because Rollins runs from adversity, hides behind his faction and now hides behind his wife when it stares him in the face, especially when Becky is a talented Superstar who just had bad taste and married a bum. Punk calls Rollins a paper champion and says it will never be over between him and Rollins. Rollins suddenly shows up and says he has been looking for Punk all night, and if Punk has something to say to him, he can say it to his face at the stage. Becky gets in Punk's way immediately, but Rollins walks away when Punk gets past Becky. When Punk turns around, Becky slaps Punk multiple times to no effect before calling him "pathetic." Punk says he will make Rollins regret cashing on it and make Becky regret putting his hands on him, but Becky says she already does and that she will have to bathe in bleach. Becky says that Punk will never be champion as Punk leaves.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce tells CM Punk that Seth "Freakin'" Rollins has left the building. Punk asks Pearce where SmackDown is next week, and finds out it is in Chicago. Punk says "Tremendous," then leaves.

The Vision (Bron Breakker and "Big" Bronson Reed) beats "Main Event" Jey Uso and LA Knight. After the match, Bronson and Brakker go on the attack on Jey Uso, and while LA Knight tries to make the save, Breakker hits him with a Spear. Breakker then hits another Spear on Jey, and Bronson hits Jey with a Tsunami. All of a sudden, Jimmy Uso shows up with a metal folding chair, and Bronson and Breakker get out of the ring.
