Raw Deal - Raw recap for July 20, 2026

The Vision (Bron Breakker and Austin Theory) beat Je'Von Evans and Dragon Lee. After the match, The Vision beat down on Je'Von Evans until Alpha Academy show up and brawl with The Vision. Maxxine gets in the ring and slaps Otis, but Otis is unfazed, and Otis continues to take the fight to The Vision after Maxxine retreats. Alpha Academy then tear down the announce table for a powerbomb on Theory, but Bron Breakker saves Theory with a Spear. Otis gets in the ring, and Maxxine watches from the top of the ring post as Otis gets Speared.



Backstage, The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh) gang up on Danhausen, demanding their money. Danhausen demands that he be let go so he can find the money, and Dominik Myserio gives him thirty seconds.

We see another vignette for Big Cass, who is identified this time while reports of his out-of-the-ring activities are referred to in the vignette. We hear a voice talk about how even when one reaches the top, there is no telling how far one can fall.

Danhausen heads to the ring with a leather briefcase, presumably full of human money. Danhausen says he thought he took care of The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh) at Saturday Night's Main Event, yet they still want their human money back. He says he does not want the money, but he does not want them to have it, either, and declares that he is giving it to the fans. The Judgment Day show up demanding their money, and Danhausen curses them before trying to run away only to be attacked. Suddenly, Joe Hendry shows up and makes the save for Danhausen, but Liv Morgan is able to get the briefcase.



We see "Chapter III: The Cash-In," chronicling "The Heist of the Century" in Seth "Freakin'" Rollins' Money in the Bank cash-in from WrestleMania 31.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce confronts The Judgment Day Liv Morgan, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh) and is joined by Danhausen and Joe Hendry. JD McDonagh finds out that the money is fake, and when he tosses the leather briefcase away, he hits Oba Femi, who wants to destroy McDonagh. Pearce puts McDonagh and Oba Femi in a one-on-one match, and when Dominik complains that it is not fair, Pearce puts him in a match with Joe Hendry later tonight. Pearce then forces The Judgment Day to the ring.

Oba Femi quickly beats JD McDonagh after General Manager Adam Pearce forces "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh to the ring before Danhausen and Joe Hendry show up and send Dominik and McDonagh into the ring.



Solo Sikoa suddenly heads to the ring. He admits that he should not even be on this show, then proposes that Seth "Freakin'" Rollins meet him in the ring now. Rollins heads to the ring and wants to know if they are talking or fighting, and Solo says he is here to talk and not to fight. He knows that Rollins is focused on Roman Reigns, then says it is not just Rollins against Reigns, but the whole Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, "Main Event" Jey Uso, Jacob Fatu). He says he knows what they are going to do because he was a part of it and that they are going to make sure he does not win against Roman Reigns, then says it does not have to be like that and that he can watch Rollins' back at SummerSlam. Rollins says that Solo makes a lot of good points and is open to the idea, then asks Solo to let him think about it. Solo stops him, saying there is nothing to think about and that he could do for Rollins what Rollins himself did for "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. Jacob Fatu shows up, and Solo Sikoa retreats as Jacob threatens to dog walk Solo. When Jacob turns towards Rollins, Rollins superkicks him, then leaves.



Chad Gable and Penta beat "All Ego" Ethan Page and Rusev by disqualification with an ankle lock from Gable to Rusev after Penta leaps off Rusev's back to hit Ethan Page with a Mexican Destroyer.



We see "Chapter IV: The First Encounter," when Seth "Freakin'" Rollins and Roman Reigns squared off for the WWE Championship at Money in the Bank 2016.

Backstage, Seth "Freakin'" Rollins finds Jacob Fatu and dares Jacob to hit him only to mention that he is under strict order from Roman Reigns not to lay a finger on him. Rollins asks if he gets Jacob's services after he wins, and Jacob says that while Rollins got one up on him, it will not happen again, and that if there is anything left of Rollins after SummerSlam, he will beat his ass.

We hear from Paul Heyman, who hypes up Oba Femi vs. Brock Lensar in Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam, saying that Oba Femi is overrated and that Lesnar's unbeaten streak in Hell in a Cell will not be broken. He admits that Oba Femi has had the greatest rookie year on the main roster since Brock Lesnar, but says that Oba will not be able to beat Lesnar in Hell in a Cell, and that Oba's rookie year will come to a violent end.

We see "Chapter V: Back Together," where Seth "Freakin'" Rollins and Roman Reigns got The Shield back together. Rollins says this reunion never felt quite right, and Reigns calls it lost time before becoming the Tribal Chief that he will never get back.

Joe Hendry beats "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio. During the match, Danhausen shows up and tries to curse Liv Morgan, but Liv punches him. Later in the match, Danhausen shows up with Iyo Sky, and Iyo Sky beats Liv Morgan up. As this goes on, Danhausen hits Dominik with the Triple D behind the referee's back, giving Hendry the win.



Before the next match, LA Knight talks about his SummerSlam match briefly, then mentions Solo Sikoa trying to help Seth "Freakin'" Rollins earlier tonight. Knight admits that he could not believe what he was seeing and that Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship makes him sick, saying that Roman was booed year after year until he was everything the fans wanted him to be. Knight says that he is not just what Roman Reigns wanted to be, but everything the boys in the back wanted Reigns to be but could not make happen. Knight says he is willing to team with Solo for one night, but he draws the line at allying with Rollins. Knight says that he wants The Bloodline (Jimmy Uso, "Main Event" Jey Uso, Jacob Fatu) destroyed at SummerSlam so they are not a factor later on, then makes some Mortal Kombat references as he states that Jacob Fatu cannot stop him.

Jacob Fatu beats LA Knight. During the match, Jimmy Uso shows up, but Solo Sikoa shows up behind Jimmy from the timekeeper's area. Both Jimmy and Solo brawl on the outside, and Jacob hits Solo with a tope suicida. Jimmy goes for a pop-up Samoan Drop on LA Knight, but Knight slips out and hits the BFT just as Jimmy Uso starts distracting the referee. Royce Keys shows up and attacks Jimmy, then "Main Event" Jey Uso comes out of the crowd and superkicks Royce. Jacob then hits the top rope moonsault on Knight for the win. After the match, Jey, Jimmy and Jacob decimate Solo, Royce and Knight before raising a finger in the air to end the show.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 11, 2026

Roman Reigns is met by General Manager Adam Pearce as he enters the building. Pearce is considering firing Jacob Fatu, but Roman wants Jacob to acknowledge him in the ring, especially since he was the one to bring him here. Roman then heads to his dressing room.

The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, Logan Paul, Austin Theory) heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Heyman praises Breakker's win over Seth "Freakin'" Rollins and says that Rollins is the one who is not ready, as he was not ready Breakker's physical onslaught and not ready for his wisdom, and Rollins will never be ready to have a vision of victory over The Vision. Heyman allows Theory to air his grievances. Theory addresses The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford), who keep putting their nose in The Vision's business and need the tag team titles "because Bianca [Belair] can't pay the bills anymore." As Theory mentions Joe Hendry, The Street Profits show up. Montez says that since Bianca is busy with the baby, somebody had to come to Raw to beat The Vision's asses all over Knoxville, Tennessee. He also says that The Street Profits have returned for the World Tag Team Championships and that they are always up and wanting the smoke. Logan Paul says The Street Profits are a legendary team, but they are old news and have done nothing but organize a baby shower for the last six months. He also says that Bianca is better than Montez for stating that The Vision is always ready. All of a sudden, Joe Hendry shows up with his guitar and sings about getting Logan Paul fired again before the show goes to a commercial break.



The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) and Joe Hendry beat The Vision (Bron Breakker, Logan Paul, Austin Theory) in a six-man tag match after Seth "Freakin'" Rollins shows up and stops Breakker's attempt at a Spear on the outside behind the referee's back, allowing Angelo Dawkins to pin Bron Breakker with a schoolkid pin for the win. After the match, Theory attacks Dawkins, but Rollins makes the save. He then helps Dawkins up, but Breakker takes out Dawkins with a Spear. As The Vision regroups, Montez confronts Rollins for Dawkins getting hurt.



General Manager Adam Pearce gets to know Los Americanos Hermanos' (Bruto and Julio) names, then Liv Morgan and "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio show up wanting to know is next for Dominik. El Grande Americano I takes offense to the interruption, and Dominik says El Grande Americano I is not a real luchador. This leads to Pearce putting Dominik in a match against El Grande Americano I with the AAA Mega Championship on the line. Afterwards, Los Garzas (Angel and Berto) shows up asking Pearce for an opportunity.

Penta heads to the ring. Penta says that heard about "All Ego" Ethan Page talking about the Intercontinental Championship, and dares Ethan Page to say it to his face. Ethan Page shows up, says that Penta painted his face and put it under a mask to hide his identity while he is who he says he is. He also talks about how he pinned Penta in the middle of the ring last week, which makes him #1 contender, and says that Penta is afraid to lose to him again. Penta says he is not afraid to defend his title against him and that they can go right now, and Ethan says that while Penta is ready to go, he is not, then mentions the prestige of the Intercontinental title and says it needs the spotlight it deserves. Ethan then challenges Penta for the title at Saturday Night's Main Event, and Penta says that he is ready for the world and will face Ethan any time, anywhere. All of a sudden, Rusev shows up and tells Ethan Page that he is next in line for the title and tells Ethan to watch what he says, but Ethan says that he has talked to General Manager Adam Pearce and says he is the new guy while Ruev has been here longer. As Ethen says that even Je'Von Evans has said that he cannot beat Rusev, Je'Von Evans shows up to take on the rumor that he said that (he did not), then gets accosted and attacked by Rusev and Ethan. This starts a brawl where Je'Von and Penta come out on top.



Je'Von Evans beats Rusev.



Members of the Tennessee Volunteers college football teams are seen in the front row.

We see a video package for the AAA Mega Championship.

Backstage, Iyo Sky is met by Asuka. The two of them hug, and Asuka says she was looking for someone to take over her position and that Iyo Sky became that person, and she is so glad it was Iyo. Iyo says that even if they fight, they will always be family. Iyo then says goodbye to Asuka, who says "See you later" before leaving the building with her suitcase.



Brie Bella and Paige head to the ring. Brie addresses The Judgment Day's (Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez) proposition that they come to Raw, and says that they are here. Paige says they are ready for a fight, and Brie wants The Judgment Day to come to the ring. Raquel and Roxanne head to the ring, and Raquel welcomes them to Raw before Roxanne talks about how she saw Brie and Paige on TV while they were still young and relevant, and how she met the both of them as a young girl. She says that Brie set the bar so low as to expect her to continue the Bella legacy. Brie says that she has her confused with Liv Morgan and wanted Roxanne to make her own legacy, then says that Roxanne's mom is disappointed with her. Raquel tells Brie and Paige to save them the embarrassment and hand them the women's tag team titles, as they do not deserve them. Paige strikes Raquel with one of the titles, starting a brawl. Liv Morgan shows up and hits Paige with a Codebreaker, and the numbers game takes over before Liv, Raquel and Rodriguez celebrate.



Backstage, Roman Reigns is met by Jimmy Uso. Jimmy says that "Main Event" Jey Uso is waiting for Jacob Fatu to dissuade him from coming to the ring. Jimmy asks Roman to move on from Jacob, but Roman says they had a deal and that Jacob signed on the line. Roman says that if Jacob Fatu does not respect him, then no one else will, and Jacob will be out of here. Jimmy says he will find Jey.

Backstage, Iyo Sky meets with Sol Ruca. Iyo says that Sol is the future and that they will fight again one day. Iyo leaves, then Becky Lynch shows up and says that Sol cannot beat Iyo and that the lights are too bright for her.

Before the next match, Oba Femi declares that the open challenge has begun, then General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and says nobody was willing to answer the challenge and that the open challenge is cancelled for tonight. Oba Femi leaves the ring and heads to the back, saying that everyone is a coward, then finds and grabs Angel, throws him into Berto, and carries the both of them into the ring.

Oba Femi quickly beats Los Garza (Angel and Berto) in a two-on-one handicap match in the Oba Femi Open Challenge.



We hear from El Grande Americano I, who says that the AAA Mega Championship is a title of prestige and belongs around his waist, as "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio is not prestigious. He says that the Mega title will soon be around his waist.

Backstage, Finn Balor attacks JD McDonagh as he accompanies "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio to the ring and takes him out of commission.



"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio retains the AAA Mega Championship against El Grande Americano I. During the match, Los Americanos (El Grande Americano II, Rayo Americano, Bravo Americano) distract both the referee and El Grande Americano I, and Los Americanos Hermanos (Julio and Bruto) show up and even the numbers game. El Grande Americano I goes for El Grande Americano II's mask, and that allows Dominik to hit the 619 and the top rope splash to win and retain.



Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Logan Paul and Austin Theory. Logan says that if he has to listen to Joe Hendry's song one more time, he will "Vincent Van Gogh himself" and cut off his own ears. As Logan complains about the song, Theory wants Logan to relax. Logan and Theory then take a car out of the arena.

Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso head to the ring. It is not long before Jacob Fatu arrives, and "Main Event" Jey Uso tries to tell Jacob to think about this, as he will create a lot of problems for himself and his family is he does what he is about to do. Jacob responds by headbutting Jey and attacking him. Jacob then looks at the camera and tells Roman that he will have to beat the acknowledgment out of him before heading to the ring. Jacob lays Jimmy Uso out when Jimmy confronts him, then brawls with Roman in the ring and overpowers him until Roman counters a tope suicida attempt with a Superman Punch on the outside. Roman then produces a chair from underneath the ring and hits Jacob with it, but when he goes for a Spear, Jacob superkicks him before locking in the Tongan Death Grip and sending Roman out of the ring for a tope suicida. Jacob clears the announce table, and Roman hits Jacob with another Superman Punch. He goes for yet another Superman Punch, but Jacob puts Roman in another Tongan Death Grip and headbutts him before powerbombing him through the announce table. Officials finally make their way out, and Jacob locks the Tongan Death Grip on Roman again before officials force him to let go. That does not stop Jacob form trying again, and even tossing General Manager Adam Pearce away in the process. Jacob Fatu then lifts up the World Heavyweight Championship, then heads to the back before rushing back and plowing Roman Reigns and The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) through the barricade to end the show.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 27, 2026

We hear from Roman Reigns and The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso). Roman says he will leave the past in the past and calls The Usos the only people he can trust. He states that he does not know where Jacob Fatu is coming from, and that everyone had two years to make their move. Jey agrees with Jacob Fatu wanting to upgrade his household, but says it should not be at Roman's expense. Jimmy says that Jacob Fatu is dangerous when Jey says that Jacob is a different breed, and that there must be consequences for Jacob stepping up. Roman takes stock of what The Usos have to say and states that he will address this later tonight.



Seth "Freakin'" Rollins heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Rollins says he lost to Gunther at WrestleMania because of Bron Breakker, who he blames for Roman Reigns holding the World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins then calls Breakker out so they can handle some unfinished business. Bron Breakker and "The Oracle" Paul Heyman show up and head to the ring, and Rollins tells Breakker that he gave him the world on a silver platter only for Breakker to take everything away from him. He says that Breakker is responsible for his having to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship and miss WrestleMania, but Breakker says that he and "Big" Bronson Reed had to be Rollins' errand boys and put out the fires he started. Breakker says that they had to fight all of Rollins' battles for him while he kept repeating the same introduction every week, and says that he never needed Rollins or his vision, and that he is here today because he needed Paul Heyman. Rollins says that Breakker just proved everything he knew about him, even when he knew that Breakker was the next big thing in WWE and the most versatile athlete he had ever seen in WWE in fourteen years, yet Breakker did not have a mind for the business. Rollins says he knows better than anybody about being a 28-year-old coming into WWE thinking the business owes them something and having to make hard decisions, yet where Breakker tries, he succeeds. He says that when he bet on himself, he becomes a champion, but when Breakker bet on himself, it only gave him The Vision. Rollins then says that Breakker is not ready, but Breakker says he was going to be a main eventer with or without Rollins. He says that Rollins cannot handle being champion anymore, and says that while he came up short at becoming World Heavyweight Champion, he lost to the best in the world instead of someone who self-proclaims it. Breakker gives credit where credit is due to Rollins and tells him that he is the best in the world at being number two, and Rollins asks Breakker if he had to ask his uncle for help with his promo. Rollins then gives Breakker the opportunity to prove that he is ready at Backlash, then tells Breakker that he is not even number two in his own family.



Backstage, Raquel Rodriguez assaults Stephanie Vaquer from behind. As Liv Morgan watches, Roxanne Perez crushes Vaquer between two road crates before Liv proclaims that the Women's World Championship is hers.

"All Ego" Ethan Page watches the next match from ringside.

Penta beats Rusev after slipping out of the Accolade and tricking Rusev into kicking him out of mid-air again by holding on to the ropes before going for - and winning with - a schoolkid pin. After the match, Rusev attacks Penta, then glares at "All Ego" Ethan Page when he tries to join in. Ethan backs off, and when Penta fights back, Ethan attacks Penta from behind. Rusev and Ethan gang up on Penta when Je'Von Evans shows up and makes the save.





We hear from Los Americanos (El Grande Americano II, Rayo Americano, Bravo Americano). El Grande Americano II says he will face El Grande Americano I in a mask vs. mask match that will be the biggest and most important fight he has ever had. He says he will have to be ready to fight for not only his life, but his name, his colors and his home, and there is no better way to prepare for this by issuing a respectful challenge to Rey Mysterio. He says it would be an honor to prepare himself by facing Rey Mysterio.

Becky Lynch heads to the ring. Becky boasts that she has gotten rid of AJ Lee and ended her "horrible" title reign and put championship gold around the waist of someone who truly deserves it - herself - and become the first woman to win four different titles at WrestleMania. She also states that she is not only a three-time Women's Intercontinental Champion, but she is on the way to becoming the winningest woman in WrestleMania history and beating The Undertaker's record. Becky then says that she had to show her daughter what a real champion is, and that even though it is not about the five-star hotels and the biggest cities, but about showing up in "run-down" towns like Laredo, Texas for the "common folk." She knows that the fans want her to be a fighting champion and face the best of the best, and for that, she issues an open challenge to whoever wants to come out and get welcomed to the big time. The challenge is answered by Iyo Sky, who heads to the ring and verbally accepts Becky's challenge. Becky says that Iyo is not new and shiny and that she is accepting on behalf of Rhea Ripley, saying she wants "to fight Shawn Michaels, not Marty Jannetty." When Becky says that Iyo Sky has been holding Rhea Ripley back, Iyo Sky slaps her. General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and makes the match between Iyo and Becky for the Women's Intercontinental Championship official.

Backstage, El Grande Americano I meets with Rey Mysterio and accuses Rey of endorsing El Grande Americano II, then asks if he needs to watch his back during the mask vs. mask match. Rey says that all he wants is for both Americanos to respect lucha libre, then Los Americanos (El Grande Americano II, Rayo Americano, Bravo Americano) show up and confront El Grande Americano I and Rey. Rey says he is not taking sides here, and El Grande Americano II says they will settle things in the ring.

Backstage, Byron Saxton interviews The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso). As Jimmy and Jey say that Roman Reigns will announce his decision when he makes it, LA Knight shows up and tells them they do not need Roman. The Usos say that this is family business, but Knight tells them that they have power and when power corrupts, it becomes his business.

Joe Hendry is in the ring for his first main roster concert. He sings about his WWE career so far before stating that he has signed to Raw, then tells General Manager Adam Pearce to fire Logan Paul. An angry Logan Paul storms out to the ring with Austin Theory, insisting that he is unfireable and says that the fans are awful just like Hendry's song. He also says that Hendry's first night on Raw will be his last. Theory states that the World Tag Team Championships make him and Logan Paul the best tag team in the world and make them winners, even though the fans feel otherwise. Hendry tells Logan and Theory that all he sees is a couple of prime time losers. Theory and Logan clear the ring, then Theory declares that the ring is theirs and that they go through everyone, starting with Hendry. Theory slaps Hendry, and Hendry fires back until the numbers game takes over. All of a sudden, The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) show up and fight Logan and Theory, making quick work of them before Logan saves Theory from a splash by Montez Ford. Hendry hits the aerial offense, then celebrates with The Street Profits.



Backstage, Grayson Waller demands an opportunity from General Manager Adam Pearce, even going so far as to call Oba Femi "Oba rated" for beating Brock Lesnar at the end of Lesnar's career. Oba Femi is surprisingly behind Grayson, and makes it clear he wants him in the ring tonight.

Backstage, Joe Hendry thanks The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) for the help, and after Hendry leaves, Seth "Freakin'" Rollins shows up. Before Rollins speaks, Montez Ford tells Rollins that last week was about the World Tag Team Titles before he and Dawkins walk off.

Rey Mysterio beats El Grande Americano II. During the match, Bravo Americano trips Rey and distracts the referee so that Rayo Americano can load El Grande Americano II's mask with a steel plate. Rayo ends up eating a 619, but El Grande Americano II still has the steel plate. El Grande Americano I shows up and stops El Grande Americano II from using the steel plate, and Rey hits El Grande Americano II with the 619 for the pin and the win. After the match, Rey Mysterio finds the steel plate and takes it with him on the way out. Afterwards, El Grande Americano I gets in the ring and attacks El Grande Americano II, and officials have to rush into the ring to restore order.



Seth "Freakin'" Rollins vs. Bron Breakker and Iyo Sky vs. Asuka are both official for Backlash.

We her from Asuka, who says that she and Iyo Sky are done when she says she is done. She says that she is still Iyo's senpai and that Iyo has done nothing but disappoint her. Asuka says she used to blame herself, but she finally realizes that Iyo is the problem. She says that Iyo failed her and her family, then says that she is now alone because she did not want another Iyo. She says she spared Iyo so she could still make her part of her family again, but now that she has given up on having a family, she will destroy Iyo and prove that Iyo will never be ready for her.

Oba Femi beats Grayson Waller. After the match, Oba Femi mentions Grayson Waller stating that there are no opportunities and proposes a solution to the problem. He then announces that starting tonight, the Oba Femi open challenge will commence. He asks anyone who wants to face him and see how he compares to the top of the mountain to step up, but warns that he will punish them, as they are stepping into the ring with "The Ruler."



Backstage, Liv Morgan speaks with Roxanne Perez as Raquel gets ready for her match. Liv apologizes to Roxanne about how things down with Finn Balor and says that The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez, JD McDonagh, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio) is family and Finn put himself before the family. Liv says she will be in Roxanne's corner as she gets one step closer to tag team gold. Liv leaves after Roxanne says she needs a second, then Finn Balor shows up and warns Roxanne that she cannot trust Liv or anyone in The Judgment Day. Roxanne questions who she can really trust between him and The Judgment Day and warns Finn to leave before he gets hurt. Finn wishes her luck and leaves.



The Judgment Day (Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez) beat Bayley and Lyra Valyria.



We see a video package for Sol Ruca, who officially signs her Raw contract next week.

Roman Reigns heads to the ring. Roman says the World Heavyweight Championship was made in spite of him and to take away his shine, but it never worked, then says that the title does not make the man and that the man makes the title, which he has already done. Roman boasts that he put the World Heavyweight Championship in Night 2 of WrestleMania and made it relevant, and now he is proud of the title, which he proclaims is now respected and acknowledged. As the crowd acknowledges Roman, Jacob Fatu shows up and heads to the ring. Roman hopes that Jacob Fatu made the right choice to unite their family and not divide it after a week, but Jacob says he did not even need an hour to think about it and insists that he needs the World Heavyweight Championship. He accuses Roman of being stuck in his championship bubble and not being on the grind like he is, stating that he was broke wondering if he would be in WWE while Roman ran The Bloodline. Jacob says that it is not about how you start, but how you finish, and it eventually got him here after Solo Sikoa was the one to call him and give him a chance. Roman says Jacob is either confused or dumb and that Solo could not get a cup of coffee in the building if he wanted to. Roman states that he is the one who runs the place, and while he has been distracted and things have gotten hectic, and he has not forgotten about Jacob, even having signed off on him. He says that Jacob does not deserve the World Heavyweight Championship and is akin to nepotism, which causes Jacob Fatu to hit Roman with the Tongan Death Grip not once, but twice, and choke him out. Jacob tells Roman that he will take everything from him, then lets go and leaves the ring. Roman tells Jacob that he owes him at Backlash, and he will see him then. Jacob tells Roman that he will see him next week before the show fades to black.

General Manager Adam Pearce is in the ring to start tonight's show. He says it is time to have a conversation with someone who has made themselves well-known tonight, and demands that Seth "Freakin'" Rollins come to the ring. A masked man in a black hoodie shows up, and he is soon joined by more than a dozen men dressed just like him. They all get in the ring and move around before one stands alone, unmasks and reveals himself to be Rollins. Pearce says that he and Rollins see eye-to-eye and that he does not like The Vision (Logan Paul and Austin Theory), and wants to know what Rollins has been doing for the last months, calling the actions of the masked hooded men "unacceptable." He says that Rollins has been able to get away with attacking The Vision, but asks what will happen when it does not, as Rollins is not medically cleared. He asks Rollins to stop the attacks, as it could lead to The Vision ending Rollins' career. Logan Paul and Austin Theory show up and head to the ring, and Logan says that the end of Rollins' career is a matter of when, not if, and that they will end him and his masked minions. Theory decides to get in the ring with Logan to end Rollins, but the masked men show back up and move around to help Rollins get away. LA Knight shows up only to be ganged up on by Logan and Theory, and The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) soon arrive to make the save. Logan and Theory soon retreat.



Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) on their way out.

He calls the championship the result of sacrifice and hard work, and states that together, he and the fans will make history before addressing his Mexican fans in Spanish. El Grande Americano shows up, but it is El Grande Americano II and not El Grande Americano I as expected.



Penta retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against El Grande Americano II.



We hear from Stephanie Vaquer. She says she has heard what Liv Morgan had to say and knows that Liv has learned as she could from the privilege of starting out in WWE, and that while Liv has all the tools to be great, she is too ignorant to use them, as she has others do her dirty work while clinging to Dominik Mysterio. Vaquer says that Chile made her who she is, and while Liv was forged by people around her with experience, she was forged in Hell. Vaquer says she and Liv took different road to get here, but they now both have the skills to be here. She says that Liv has gotten lazy, and that she can see more in Liv than Liv can see in herself. She says that Liv could be a great opponent, but Liv sees herself as a cheap blonde. Vaquer says that Liv takes the easy out to keep the championship, then tells her to bring everything she has, as she herself will bring everything she has to continue making history as Women's World Champion. Backstage, Liv Morgan is angry about what Vaquer had to see when Dominik shows up wanting to know where Finn Balor is. Dominik then heads to the ring.



Boxer Jose Valenzuela as well as members of the Seattle Seahawks are seen in the crowd.

The Judgment Day ("Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez) heads to the ring. Dominik demands a rematch for the WWE Intercontinental Championship, stating that he should be champion right now, but instead, Penta is walking around with his title. He blames this on Finn Balor, and while he wanted to do this privately, he now has to air this out publicly. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh show up and head to the ring. Dominik wants to know where Finn Balor has been, as The Judgment Day has been looking for him, and says that Finn Balor had better have a rematch set up for him. Finn Balor takes the blame for Dominik losing the Intercontinental Championship and apologizes. Finn says he was trying to teach Dominik that The Judgment Day is a family and that they will always have his back, and that in order to be the greatest Mysterio of all time, he must learn to fight his own battles. Finn says he has been trying to help Dominik for two years, but the more he tries to lead him in the right direction, the more he realizes that Rey Mysterio was right about Dominik being "a spoiled little prick." Dominik shoves Finn, and Finn hits a Pele Kick in response. McDonagh has to pull Finn off of Dominik. Finn eventually has to take down Dominik, and McDonagh hits Finn with a clothesline before Liv and Raquel attack Finn. Dominik grabs a chair, and Finn fights back only to eat a right fist from Dominik. Dominik then puts a ring bell hammer in his sneaker before going for and hitting the 619 on Finn.

Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce congratulates Je'Von Evans for his performance in the Elimination Chamber. Pearce leaves, then Grayson Waller and Kofi Kingston confront Je'Von. Kofi asks Grayson to let him speak with Je'Von alone, which Grayson does. Kofi admits that they started off on the wrong foot last time and that he can see a lot of himself in Je'Von, as he showed up with a lot of new moves and eventually became WWE Champion, and says that could be Je'Von if he has the right team around him. He tells Je'Von he does not have to answer right away, and that he knows he has dreams and that Je'Von does not have to do it alone.



Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Bayley and Lyra Valkyrie. Bayley looks forward to facing AJ Lee for the Women's Intercontinental Championship, and says she could not have gotten to this point without Lyra Valkyria. Lyra says that Bayley should become the next Women's Intercontinental Champion, and Bayley says that a lot of the locker room would not be here with out AJ Lee, who Bayley says it would be an honor to face in the ring. Bayley also mentions giving Lyra Valkyria the first shot at the title if she wins.

Oba Femi beats Rusev.



CM Punk heads to the ring. Punk says that Roman Reigns has never respected him during his entire career and that he will force Reigns to respect the position that he holds, and that championships are created to see who the best is. He says that the World Heavyweight Championship was created because Reigns shirked his championship duties and refuses to defend his titles, and says that he defends the World Heavyweight title because the fans deserve a fighting champion. Punk says that those who challenge him for the title are forced to level up, or else those who challenge him will be left confused and slack-jawed like Roman Reigns. He also admits that he lowered himself to Roman Reigns' level before The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) show up. Jey demands Punk apologize right now, but Punk wants to know why Roman is sending his cousins to do the heavy lifting. Jey says they were not sent and that he is here himself. Jimmy says this has nothing to do with Roman Reigns and everything to do with respect, and that he has a whole lot of respect for Punk for the kind of character that he is. He says that Punk can talk trash about Reigns all he wants, but he will not take the disrespect towards their late uncle. Jimmy then demands an apology. Punk mentions that his history with The Usos goes back further than people know, and admits that he did not know Sifa as well as he knew Afa, who he practically learned the business from in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He says that even Sifa could see how much of a conniving, backstabbing person Roman Reigns is, and Jey Uso stops Punk, just wanting him to say "I'm sorry." Punk says "I'm sorry," before saying he is sorry for how Roman Reigns treated his family and how he disrespected his mentor in Dusty Rhodes.He says that if Roman Reigns actually cared, he would be in the ring right now instead of his "young boys." The Usos shoves Punk down to the mat and leave to end the show.
