Christian says that Edge could not even pull off "the greatest wrestling match ever" in his prime, as that is a high, lofty expectation. As Christian says that Edge may not have what it takes, Edge tells him to "pump the brakes" and says he hasn't had a straight-up wrestling match in over nine years and that he is being dropped at Mount Everest with no guide and no equipment. He says that he is not the same Edge who looked him in the eye when he did not have the confidence before their tag team matches or the Edge who fired on all cylinders, and that he does not know how many cylinders he still has. Christian asks Edge where his belief is, and says he knew someone who believed in Edge more than anyone: Edge's mom, who was there for all of his title wins. He says that if the Edge he knows will now show up, then he should step through the ropes and go home. Edge stares at Christian, and Christian says "That's what I was looking for; there are those eyes." Christian says that everyone believes in him, and says that Edge has "the anti-venom" and is as good as he has ever been. Suddenly, Randy Orton shows up on the TitanTron and tells Edge and Christian to "shut the hell up" or else he will be sick to his stomach. He says Edge made one "pathetic" guarantee to try, and that he will not know what to do when he does not live up to expectations.

McIntyre says that MVP has been hiding after Lashley after taking one too many Claymore Kicks, but MVP says that he hides behind no one and that Lashley will beat McIntyre for the WWE Championship. After McIntyre jokes about MVP giving Lashley the same advice that has won him zero world championships, and tells MVP to either take the Claymore Kick like a man or run away so he can give it to him anyway, Lashley shows up.

Roman then fights off The Revival in the back, then makes his way to the VIP lounge and confronts Shane and McIntyre before punching McIntyre and cornering Shane. Roman and McIntyre brawl, and Roman puts McIntyre through a table before chasing Shane through the crowd. When Shane looks for Roman, Roman finds him and pummels him. Roman gets Shane in the ring and hits him with a Superman Punch followed by a Spear. He then tells Shane to crawl to the back and tell McIntyre that he will whup his ass on Sunday.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for June 10, 2019

Seth Rollins shows up to start tonight's show with a steel chair in his hands. Rollins says it is a new era for the Universal Championship, and if anyone wants to face him for the title, they can face him for it or ask Brock Lesnar how it worked out. He says that nobody has ever done to Brock Lesnar what he did to him at Super Showdown, and that it felt "pretty damn good" smashing the steel chair into Lesnar and leaving him a heap in the middle of the ring. Suddenly, Baron Corbin shows up and makes fun of San Diego, California before telling Rollins that she should worry about him, for he will become the new Universal Champion after Stomping Grounds. Rollins says it didn't work out well for him at Super Showdown, but Corbin says Rollins only won because of referee John Cone. He then says he has been in meetings with WWE executives, and that John Cone will be severely punished and that he has a rematch at Stomping Grounds. He also states that there will be a special guest referee to prevent any mistakes this time around, and that he has also been allowed to hand-pick the referee. Rollins says he will beat him regardless of who it is, then asks who it is when Corbin has no friends. Suddenly, Sami Zayn shows up and says he agrees with Corbin here and that he has known Rollins for a long time and cares for him as a person, saying that being Universal Champion is not good for him. Sami says Rollins is dealing with Lesnar over and over again, and says it would be better for him and the fans if Corbin was Universal Champion, as he would not be obsessed with Lesnar. Rollins doesn't buy it, saying there has to be something in this for Sami Zayn. It soon becomes implied that Sami Zayn is the special guest referee, but Rollins asks Sami who will have his back when he slaps the taste out of his mouth. Kevin Owens shows up and says he has Sami's back, and that he agrees with Sami about Corbin being a better Universal Champion than Rollins. He does not, however, agree with how Rollins is talking to Sami, and Rollins tells Owens that if he does not like it, he can get in the ring and do something with it. Owens says that since he is here as a wild card, he might just do that, and after Rollins asks the fans what they think about it, Rollins tells Owens he's on.

Lars Sullivan beats The Lucha House Party (Kalisto, Gran Metalik, Lince Dorado) in a 3-on-1 elimination handicap match in short order.

Backstage, R-Truth and Carmella are seen running away from other Superstars chasing after them. They make the mistake of taking the elevator, but the elevator closes before the referee can show up. Suddenly, the elevator stops, and they, EC3, Heath Slater, Drake Maverick and Cedric Alexander are stuck inside.

Michael Cole conducts an interview with Lacey Evans and Becky Lynch. Becky tells Lacey she talks so much yet does so little, and says she cannot allow someone like her to become champion. Lacey says she has done what is necessary to get what she wants, and says she will not stop until she gets it. Becky says the last time she got angry, she made history, and she will overcome her because she is relentless. Lacey tells Becky her "The Man" bravado is just a mask, and that fear of losing everything and sinking back down into obscurity is what really drivers her. She also says that Becky reeks of fear, and it is nasty. She says that fear will become reality when she takes the Raw Women's Championship from her, but Becky says all she'll take is a slap to the face.

Backstage, Alexa Bliss tells Nikki Cross that Bayley is a master manipulator and not what she comes off as, and that she knows the real Bayley: someone who has always alienated her. Nikki Cross asks why she is bringing this up, but Alexa Bliss says she can be herself. Nikki says she get it, and tells Alexa she will be in her corner tonight.

It's time for Miz TV with special guest Samoa Joe. The Miz introduces Samoa Joe, who shows up. Samoa Joe says there is nothing new about his championship reign, as Rey Mysterio stole his championship and he was afforded the opportunity to win it back. The Miz brings up Joe putting Rey in the Coaquina Clutch and threatening his son Dominic, and tells him that involving another man's family is not a line to cross unless you want to be called out. Joe tells Miz those lines belongs to him, and that there is no such thing as "too far" when it comes to getting what he wants, and if Miz wants wants to keep going, then maybe he can talk about his family. As Miz and Joe have a staredown, Braun Strowman shows up. Strowman tells Joe that if he is looking for a challenge, then he can get these hands. Suddenly, Bobby Lashley shows up and tells Strowman he is not done with him before telling Joe that they have history together and that if anybody deserves a chance at the United States title, it is him. Ricochet then shows up and says that after beating Cesaro twice, he wants to win his first title with the United States Championship. Cesaro then shows up and sucker punches Ricochet, starting a brawl between all six men. Miz and Strowman clear the ring, and Ricochet soon joins them.

The Miz, Braun Strowman and Ricochet beat Samoa Joe, Bobby Lashley and Cesaro.

Backstage, Sami Zayn meets with Shane McMahon about being special guest referee for tonight's match between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens as if it were an audition. Shane proposes making Sami an outside referee for the match, to which Sami agrees.

Paul Heyman is in the ring. He says he is disturbed by the amount of hostility between Brock Lesnar and Seth Rollins, as well as the beating Seth Rollins gave to Brock Lesnar with a steel chair. Heyman says that Rollins is a "stupid, feckless thug" and not a worthy champion, for he has now guaranteed that Lesnar will continue to be Mr. Money In The Bank. He also announces that he and Lesnar will now longer announces when they will be cashing in, and neither confirms or denies that Brock Lesnar is here tonight. He also refuses to insinuate where Lesnar will be next or that Lesnar will give Rollins a vicious beating before taking the Universal Championship from him, as the latter is not an insinuation, prediction or a spoiler, but a threat, a promise and a guarantee from Lesnar.

Back in the elevator, Carmella tries to restore order, and EC3 threatens resorting to cannibalism. R-Truth cannot call for help, and everyone suddenly becomes desperate.

Backstage, The IIconics stated that they have demanded the finest competition and have just found it in two random competitors who are also standing in the ring, and state that they will never compare to them. They also state their opponents will never be Women's Tag Team Champions just like the San Jose Sharks will never be Stanley Cup Champions.

The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) beat Lisa Lace and Aleyah Mia.

In a post-match interview from Super ShowDown, Roman Reigns admits Shane McMahon had his win given to him by Drew McIntyre, but he will bounce back and beat Drew McIntyre.

Back in the elevator, R-Truth, Carmella, Drake Maverick, Cedric Alexander, EC3 and Heath Slater are actually getting along.

Drew McIntyre shows up. He soon brings out Shane McMahon. Shane says that he has seen a lot of amazing and special things growing up in WWE, and admits that Roman Reigns is something special as well as a future WWE Hall of Famer. He tips his hat to Roman Reigns and his accolades, and admits that he "hits like a mule," but states that Roman does not hold a victory over him. He tells Roman he should be ashamed, for he gave him his best, then says his best was not good enough to beat the best in the world. Shane thanks Drew McIntyre for using his battles with Roman to help him prepare and giving him emotional support. Drew McIntyre says Roman Reigns is a measuring stick, and when he loses, people turn heads. He then promises not only to beat Roman, but to hurt, maim and humiliate him at Stomping Grounds, and while Shane McMahon is the best in the world, he is the most dangerous and he will assault Roman until he is unrecognizable. Shane proposes that they celebrate with some champagne, and Shane drinks his out of the Best In The World Cup while Drew drinks straight from the bottle. Shane then introduces The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder), whom he calls the next WWE Raw Tag Team Champions. He tells them that their Triple Threat Match for the titles are up next, and if they want into their party, they will have to bring some gold.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins. Ryder says they have been through it all, but they are still here for they are always ready no matter what. Curt Hawkins says their competition may say they are the best, but they are the champions, and it isn't midnight in their "Cinderella story" yet.

The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) beat Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder and The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match to become the WWE Raw Tag Team Champions for a second time after Scott Dawson picks the bones following an Uso splash.

On this week's edition of Firefly Fun House, Rambling Rabbit tries to fight off Mercy the Buzzard to keep him from eating him. Bray threatens to send in "The Fiend," then proposes letting fate decide. It becomes Rambling Rabbit's lucky day, and Rambing Rabbit says he doesn't want to be anybody's lunch. Bray Wyatt - now wearing a clown nose - proceeds to smash Rambling Rabbit with a hammer, killing him. He ends up turning Rambling Rabbit into a breakfast spread.

Kevin Owens beats Seth Rollins by disqualification after Seth puts his hands on special guest outside referee Sami Zayn, who interferes on Owens' behalf constantly throughout the match. After the match, Rollins attacks Sami, but he is soon attacked by Baron Corbin. Corbin gets a steel chair, but Rollins fights back and uses it against him before hitting Sami Zayn with it. Rollins then hits The Stomp on Sami Zayn to end the show.

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

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 27, 2019

WWE acknowledges Memorial Day at the start of the show.

Kofi Kingston shows up to start tonight's show. After a video package of Dolph Ziggler's attack on him from last week, Kofi talks about Kevin Owens re-injuring Big E's as well as Ziggler's attack on him. He says that Ziggler tried to finish him, but he did not finish the job for he is still here, and when the time is right, he will address Ziggler. As for tonight, tonight is the night that Brock Lesnar chooses his opponent and he considers himself to be a fighting champion and wants to be one of the best WWE Champions of all time. To do that, he must beat Lesnar. He asks Brock Lesnar to cash in his Money In The Bank contract on him tonight, then Seth Rollins shows up. Rollins admits he is not Lesnar, but he likes where Kofi's head is at and that he wants to know who Lesnar will cash in on, too. He says Lesnar is the only thing missing right now, and demands that Lesnar show up to make his decision. Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up, and the music suddenly changes to hip-hop music. Lesnar now has a new Money In The Bank briefcase with two sub-woofers on the back, and he is also wearing a hoodie with the words "Brock Party" on it. Lesnar does the Running Man as he makes his way to the ring, Kofi's theme plays, then Rollins' theme plays, and all the while, Lesnar and Rollins pretend to get down to the music. Rollins leaves, but Kofi stays in the ring. Heyman says it is just like Rollins to "pee on everybody's parade," and that Lesnar was going to announce who he was going to cash in against when Rollins ruined his and Lesnar's "Brock Party." He tells Kofi to blame Rollins for Lesnar not doing it, then he and Lesnar leave. As Heyman and Lesnar leave, Kofi is attacked from behind by Dolph Ziggler again, and Ziggler hits Kofi with a Zig Zag on the ramp. Ziggler grabs a steel chair, but Xavier Woods shows up and fights Ziggler, who quickly flees through the crowd.

After the commercial break, three referees are helping Kofi Kingston to the back when Dolph Ziggler attacks Kofi again. Xavier Woods keeps Ziggler at bay and takes their brawl to the ring. Woods and Ziggler's brawl soon makes its way into the crowd for a little while before Woods sends Ziggler back over the guardrail, but Ziggler gets the upper hand after kicking Woods in the knee. Ziggler then grabs a steel chair and smashes it into Woods' back before wrapping it around his head. Kofi returns with a steel chair of his own, and Ziggler retreats through the crowd.

After another commercial break, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are still in the ring. Dolph Ziggler shows up yet again and says he thought he knew Kofi, but Kofi has been wasting all his time on Brock Lesnar when he should have been worried about him. He tells Kofi to celebrate like he has never celebrated before for the next eleven days, for he is the best WWE Champion that he can remember. However, every time he sees Kofi with the title, it reminds him that it should have been him. Ziggler says he has admired Kofi, and that Kofi has always had two people watching his back. He says he knew of Kofi's potential early on and knew he could be champion, then asks what will happen to Kofi and his fans when he takes the title from him. He admits it took a little longer than he wanted it to, and says that it should have been him with the WWE Championship at WrestleMania. Ziggler then says that at Super Showdown, it will be him.

Everyone is having a Memorial Day block party backstage. The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) wish Natalya a happy birthday, then thank everyone for showing up to the party.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews Shane McMahon, who says that he will beat Roman Reigns at Super Showdown like he will beat his opponent tonight. He then heads to the ring with Drew McIntyre.

Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre are in the ring. He says that he and Roman Reigns' families have been around for generation and that the difference between the two families boils down to respect. He says that this is the only way to explain Roman Reigns hitting his father WWE Chairman Vince McMahon with a Superman Punch, and while the McMahon family exemplifies respect, Roman's family exemplifies viciousness. He namedrops members of Roman's family including Afa and Sifa, The Wild Samoans, and knows them better than Roman himself, all the way down to their accomplishments and their mistakes. He chooses not to disparage The Wild Samoans, for it is not in his nature, and that Vince was always there to clean up after The Wild Samoans' mistakes. Shane says he is here representing the McMahon family, and asks who in "the Samoan dynasty" will face him right now.

Shane McMahon beats Lance Anoa'i by submission following a beating to Lance from Drew McIntyre before the bell rings. After the match, Drew hits Lance with a knife edge chop before Shane puts Lance in his triangle hold again and mocks him, saying the worst mistake Sika ever made was spawning Roman Reigns. Roman Reigns shows up and Superman Punches Drew McIntyre before yanking Shane out of the crowd. Shane fights him off, but he ends up eating a Superman Punch. McIntyre saves him from a Spear, then Roman checks on Lance. Backstage, Drew McIntyre and Shane McMahon are seen leaving the arena.

Referee John Cone is seen in the ring. Heyman introduces Lesnar, and announces that it is time for Lesnar to inform one champion that he will be cashing in on them. Before he can say much else, Seth Rollins shows up and says that the WWE Universal Championship is his life and that Lesnar makes a mockery out of it because he is a joke. He tells Lesnar that he beat him at WrestleMania and that he can do it again tonight. He says Lesnar used to be the most feared man in combat sports history, but now Lesnar is a coward. He tells Lesnar that if he wants a chance to prove him wrong, all he has to do is cash in on him. Heyman reads from the Money In The Bank contract, but Lesnar stops him and slaps him for not telling him he has a year to cash in. Lesnar tells Rollins he has a whole year to decide, and simply tells Rollins "Screw you." After Heyman and Lesnar leave, Carmella and R-Truth crawl into the ring with other Superstars chasing after them. R-Truth and Carmella flee through the crowd again.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, who is no longer medically cleared following a pop in his lower back following Money In The Bank. He wanted to compete in tonight's Fatal 4-Way Match for another opportunity at the Universal Championship, but it will not happen tonight. Before he can say more about how long he will be out, he is suddenly attacked by Baron Corbin, who replaces him in the match.

Becky Lynch and Nikki Cross beat The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce). After the match, Lacey Evans shows up, walks down the ramp, turns around and heads towards the back.

Back at The Usos' (Jimmy and Jey Uso) block party, Naomi and Tamina have a confrontation, but it ends up becoming a family reunion. The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) then show up and thanks The Usos for showing some decency and class for inviting them to the block party. The Usos say they did not invite them, but Naomi says they invited them and demands that both teams squash their beef at the block party.

Ricochet beats Cesaro.

It is announced that Rey Mysterio will have to vacate the WWE United States Championship next week due to being unable to defend it due to injury. Samoa Joe shows up and says that he could not help but overhear, and says he will be there and waiting to take back what is rightfully his.

The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) and The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) have fun throwing beanbags at the backstage block party.

We hear from The Miz and Braun Strowman before the next match.

Baron Corbin beats The Miz, Braun Strowman and Bobby Lashley in a Fatal 4-Way Elimination Match to become the #1 contender for the WWE Universal Championship after Strowman and Lashley fight their way through the crowd and into the back and Corbin hits Miz with End of Days.

The beanbag competition between The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) and The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) heats up at the block party, and after some cheating by The Revival, R-Truth shows up and says he isn't here. People then start trying to take the 24/7 Championship from him, starting a brawl as a result.

On this week's Firefly Fun House, Bray Wyatt asks everyone if they enjoyed his secret, which he calls "The Fiend," and says that The Fiend is here to protect everyone. He says that people say and do horrible things, and that he finds it hard to be brave and courageous until "The Fiend" show up, at which point he can be anything he wants to be. Abby says that Bray Wyatt doesn't want anybody to see how much of a sicko he is, and after Abby asks if Bray thinks he is a doctor, Bray dressed up as a doctor and diagnoses Abby with being a bully. Abby says she does not want to be stuck in this limbo anymore, and this leads to Bray Wyatt playing Limbo by doing his trademark spider walk to close out the segment. The two kids holding the limbo stick are not happy.

Corey Graves hosts the inaugural edition of "The Electric Chair" with special guest Sami Zayn. In this segment, the fans provide the questions, and no question is off limit no matter how controversial they are. A fan asks when Sami's retirement is, and Sami responds by asking the fan if his parents are related. Another fan asks Sami if he misses teaming with Becky Lynch. Sami asks the fan where her parents are. Another fan asks Sami how it felt to be destroyed by Braun Strowman, and Sami says he would rather walk up to him and smack him than answer that question, but he would get sued for it because this is America. He also says he would put the fan in life-crippling debt because American health care sucks. Sami says that the fans could have answered better questions, and another fan asks why he hasn't won the Universal Championship yet. Sami says he could win it any time he wants, but he would rather hold the fans accountable for their behavior. After Sami says he'll even answer questions about AEW (which elicits a response from the crowd), Seth Rollins shows up. Rollins chases Sami out of the ring, then tosses the electric chair that is in the ring out before the next match.

Seth Rollins beats Sami Zayn.

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

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 20, 2019

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up to start tonight's show. After a video package of Lesnar's Money In The Bank Ladder Match win, Heyman introduces Lesnar to the crowd before stating that he can hear the paranoia permeating through the room following Lesnar's win. He also says that there have been several conspiracy theories about what has happened, some of them involving Sami Zayn's beatdown, and says the fans give them way too much credit. Heyman says that if he were Kofi Kingston or Seth Rollins, he would be paranoid right now, as he would be vulnerable to a beatdown from Lesnar. He states that despite that paranoia, the world is not against someone like Rollins, but Lesnar is, and he would rather have all the fans against him than Lesnar. Suddenly, Rollins shows up. Rollins talks about his victory against "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles last night, then says he is not in a good mood due to Lesnar with the Money In The Bank Briefcase. He says that he is busy trying to be the champion that Lesnar never had the guts to be, and says he cannot do that while Lesnar hangs the contract over his head. Rollins dares Lesnar to cash in tonight so he can beat him again. Heyman says Rollins may have the sword of Damocles over his head, but he will have to wait until Lesnar feels like cashing in and get used to waiting like his girlfriend Becky Lynch waited for the main event at WrestleMania. This fires Rollins up, and Heyman asks Rollins how he knows he is even worthy of being cashed in on when Lesnar could just as easily cash in on Kofi Kingston. Suddenly, Kofi Kingston shows up, and he says he is trying to cement his legacy as WWE Champion and be remembered as one of the best WWE Champions of all time. He says he cannot do that unless he defends against and beats the best, night in and night out. Kofi congratulates Lesnar on his Money In The Bank win, and tells him that if he will cash in on tonight, it had better be on him. Heyman finds joy in both Kofi and Seth "auditioning" for a match against Lesnar, then says neither of them are done this evening from what he has heard and that Lesnar and the briefcase are not going anywhere. He then says "the beast is yet to come," then he and Heyman leave.

Mick Foley is seen entering the arena with a veiled title belt over his shoulder.

Sami Zayn is seen talking to Bobby Lashley about last night, and offers him an opportunity to soften up Braun Strowman and help him out. Lashley declines, and Sami is on his own.

Backstage, Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston meet with WWE COO Triple H, who tell them that they will team up against Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley in tonight's main event.

Braun Strowman beats Sami Zayn. Before the start of the match, Braun Strowman chases Sami Zayn backstage. Strowman runs into Bobby Lashley, and Sami Zayn tries to use this distraction as a means to a cheap shot but fails. Sami pleads to Lashley to do something, but Lashley stands there and Strowman says "I'll deal with you later." Strowman re-appears on the stage with Sami on his shoulder, and he is about to send Sami back into the ring when Sami pushes Strowman into the ring post.

Charly Caruso interviews Lars Sullivan in the ring. After a video package of Lars' recent path of destruction, Lars is about to talk about his goals in WWE when The Lucha House Party (Kalisto, Gran Metalik, Lince Dorado) shows up. Kalisto, Gran Metalik and Lince Dorado all try to get the jump on Sullivan, and all three men manage to drop kick Sullivan out of the ring. When The Lucha House Party goes for aerial attacks, however, Lars gets the upper hand, and Lince Dorado is planted into the mat with the Freak Accident. He goes for a powerbomb, but Kalisto and Gran Metalik save Dorado.

We see footage from earlier today where Cesaro mocks Ricochet for being hurt after Money In The Bank.

Cesaro - now with a new entrance and theme music - beats Ricochet.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, who says he is back to square one after last night, but that is okay with him. He doesn't mind the hard work, and while he can beat Seth Rollins, Sunday was not his night. Baron Corbin interrupts Styles and tells him to spare the redemption story, but Styles tells Corbin he has squandered several opportunities. Corbin says he won last night and that Styles did not even deserve to be in the ring with Rollins, calling it a slap in the face. Styles responds by slapping Corbin in the face. Corbin tells him he will pay for that.

Roman Reigns shows up. Before he can say anything, Shane McMahon shows up. Shane tells Roman that his yard is only so big compared to him, and that he proved his point last night after beating The Miz in a steel cage match. Shane states that he is officially done with The Miz and that his focus is now on Roman Reigns following Roman's Superman Punch to his father WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, saying that Roman disgusts him. Roman says he hates spoiled rich kids and says he is done with Elias and his schedule is wide open. Shane says Elias is not done with him and that one fluke victory means nothing, but Roman says that if Shane has beef with him, they can squash it tonight. Shane asks the fans if they want to see him and Roman go one-on-one in the ring, then takes his jacket off before saying it will not happen as he controls his destiny and does what he wants, when he wants. He then tells Roman that he is control around here, then brings out Drew McIntyre and says they will have their match at Super Showdown, where he will win. Roman says that all Shane will be saying is how he whipped his ass.

Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre. Before he can say much, The Miz shows up. Drew says Shane knows he's done, and if Miz has a problem with Shane, he has a problem with him. Miz tells Shane that he will come after him again once he is done with McIntyre.

It's time for A Moment Of Bliss with Alexa Bliss...and Nikki Cross. After getting some coffee for the two of them, we are introduced to tonight's special guest, Becky Lynch. Becky Lynch shows up, but before Alexa can say much, she implies that Nikki should step back. Before Becky can answer what it is like to no longer be "Becky Two Belts," The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) show up. After they make fun of Becky having only one championship, they brag about still being Women's Tag Team Champions. Becky reminds them she has defend her titles more than they have theirs, and threatens to send them into the ring and become "Becky Three Belts." Lacey Evans then shows up and says Becky is no longer "Becky Two Belts" because of her, but Becky tells Lacey she still tapped out and could not get the job done even when she had half her attention. Becky then says she can slap Lacey around full-time on Raw, and boasts that she can beat the three of them in the ring at once. Nikki Cross offers to become Becky Lynch's tag team partner, and Becky makes Alexa her other tag team partner. Alexa says she agreed to nothing, but Becky Lynch tells her to stand on the apron and look pretty while she does all the work.

Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross beat The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) and Lacey Evans after Lacey walks out of the match.

We get a brief look at Jake "The Snake" Roberts and his snake Damian, courtesy of The Secret Life of Pets 2.

Mick Foley shows up. He says that Monday nights need to be raw again, and says it takes a lot to become a champion in WWE as well as a legend. After talking about how becoming a legend is a mindset, he unveils WWE's newest title: the WWE 24/7 Championship. He states that the title can be defended anytime, anyplace and anywhere. As long as a referee is present, a fall can happen - and count - anywhere. He then lays the title on the line, and states that the last hour of Raw will get a little more nasty. He announces that an inaugural champion will be crowned, and that anybody on Raw, SmackDown Live, 205 Live, NXT and NXT UK is eligible. He also announces that a legend may come for the title every so often. He then leaves the ring and calls for a bell. Multiple Superstars make a run for the championship and beat each other up, then rush into the ring and fight each other over the title one by one. Rockstar Spud dives for the title, but Titus O'Neil tosses him into everyone else over the top rope and takes the title. Titus O'Neil is the inaugural champion, but he is pinned by Robert Roode - and has a referee present to count - to take the title away as quickly as Titus grabbed it. Everyone then chases after Robert Roode.

Backstage, Robert Roode is in hiding as everyone chases after him for the 24/7 title.

Drew McIntyre beats The Miz following the distraction by Shane McMahon. After the match, Shane tells The Miz he has one last parting gift. He then commands McIntyre to put Miz in the corner to hit him with a Coast To Coast, but Roman Reigns runs out and chases Shane away before Superman Punching McIntyre. Shane almost gets a Superman Punch, but slides out of the ring in time.

Backstage, Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley bear witness to a bunch of Superstars chasing Robert Roode and the 24/7 title.

Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston. Kofi says the WWE Champion must be able to multitask, and while Brock Lesnar is in the building, Bobby Lashley and Baron Corbin are a serious threat. Seth Rollins says Lashley and Corbin may not be likable, they are still dangerous and must be taken care of before Lesnar. Kofi says he has worked hard to become WWE Champion, and he is ready to not only visit Suplex City, but survive it.

It is announced that Rey Mysterio has suffered a separated shoulder after last night. We then hear from Samoa Joe, who states that his shoulders were not on the mat when he was pinned. He is not troubled by this, as Rey Mysterio is a virtuous man and a loving father with a reputation that he would not tarnish. While he is not a compassionate man, he gifts him the opportunity to do the right thing and hand the United States title back to him. He offers Rey Mysterio to be the example he wishes to set, or he will set one for him.

Backstage, Robert Roode gets help from R-Truth, who puts him in the trunk of a car and misleads everyone chasing after him. He gives him a ride, but a referee is in the passenger seat. R-Truth beats Robert Roode to become the 24/7 Champion, then drives away.

It is announced that the next match is officially a no-disqualification match.

Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston beat Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley in a no-disqualification match. After the match, Lashley hits both Kofi and Rollins with a Spear, then Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up as Kofi and Rollins fight Lashley off. Lesnar and Heyman circle the ring, then Lesnar gets on the apron only to back out of entering the ring. Heyman tells Lesnar he is in their heads and proposes they come back next week so that Lesnar can announce who he is cashing in on.

Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown Live recap for April 9, 2019

The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) show up to start tonight's show with Kofi's championship celebration. Big E announces that Kofi made people cry tears of joy as he proved himself "an A+ player with extra credit" at WrestleMania to become WWE Champion, then Big E does a split just like he did on Raw. He also mentions that Kofi came close to becoming a dual champion like Becky Lynch last night, and while it would have fun, there is nothing like being home on SmackDown Live. Big E admits that people know The New Day best for crude jokes and mischievousness, but tonight, they are here to celebrate Kofi. Woods says they are honored to call Kofi a friend and a brother, and tonight, they will celebrate Kofi's career. Woods says he remembers Kofi's debut, and says it has been wonderful to follow Kofi's career. When he finally made it to WWE and met Kofi, it was like meeting one of his heroes. Big E says the bond The New Day has is special, and they changed culture and made history. He says that Kofi did just that at WrestleMania, and Woods congratulates Kofi on behalf of everyone from the fans to the locker room. He thanks his family for supporting him since day one, then The Bar (Sheamus and Cesaro) shows up. Sheamus says Kofi owes them thanks for saving their sin, and Cesaro says Seth Rollins was mopping the floor with him and almost took his championship. Sheamus says Kofi almost lost the WWE Championship because he didn't have Big E and Woods with him, then Cesaro challenges The New Day to a six-man tag team match. Big E questions their not having a third man, but Cesaro says they made a friend at Raw: Drew McIntyre, who shows up and stands alongside The Bar.

Aleister Black, Ricochet and Ali beat Andrade, Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev. After the match, Ali is nailed by an RKO out of nowhere by Randy Orton. After that, Kevin Owens shows up from out of nowhere and hits Rusev with a Stunner.

Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviews The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso), who congratulate Kofi Kingston before saying they are still SmackDown tag team champions and that they need to win tonight, for both titles and bragging rights about being the best are on the line.

R-Truth and Carmella are in the ring. They congratulate Becky Lynch and Kofi Kingston on their win on Sunday, and Truth boasts that Carmella beat Andre The Giant in the Royal Rumble. Carmella says that Truth is talking about the WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, and says that she could not have done it without Truth. After she says that the battle royal win is the first step towards a bright future, Samoa Joe shows up. Truth and Joe brawl, but Joe is able to lock in the Coaquina Clutch and put Truth to sleep. Joe says he stands before the fans as the man who beat Rey Mysterio in less than a minute, and it will take less time to beat up anyone else in WWE. Suddenly, Braun Strowman shows up and fights Joe. Joe tries to put Strowman to sleep with the Coaquina Clutch, but Strowman fights out of it and nearly hits Joe with a running powerslam. Joe manages to wriggle free and get away.

Before the next match, The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) brag about their tag team championship victory at WrestleMania, and say that they don't just talk; they walk about being fighting champions and promise to take on anyone, anytime and anywhere. They announce that they have set up their first title defense against a team with a record of 45-0: Karissa and Kristen, The Brooklyn Belles.

The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) retain the WWE Women's Championships against The Brooklyn Belles (Karissa and Kristen). (Kristen is future AEW star Kris Statlander, and Karissa will be known as Elektra Lopez in NXT two years later.) After the match, Kayla Braxton interviews Paige - who has been watching the match - backstage. She mentions the Superstar Shake-Up, then mentions that next week, she will be bringing in an impressive tag team of her own after The IIconics' victory tonight.

Shane McMahon shows up. Shane says that this week has been great and that next week will be just as great with the Superstar Shake-Up, then focuses on WrestleMania. After naming off some of the best moments from Sunday night, he then says that everyone tuned in to see him defeat The Miz. Shane goes on to brag that he did, then says he has The Miz - who is not here tonight due to having to tend to his father - in his rear view mirror and that The Miz's father had the audacity to get in the ring and stepping up to him. He says that The Miz's father hit him in the eye, and the crowd chants "You deserve it!" as Shane claims that he was forced to defend himself by striking back and that The Miz and his father both got what was coming to them. Shane says that The Miz and his father found out first-hand that he is the best in the world on Sunday, then - as the crowd chants for CM Punk - asks ring announcer to step into the ring with him. Shane tells Hamilton that he could not help but feel that Hamilton was getting stuck introducing him, and Hamilton tells Shane that some fans threatened to something bad to him if he introduces Shane as "Best In The World." Shane tells Hamilton that Brooklyn, New York is the best city in the world because he lives in it, then tells him he does not have to worry about the fans doing things to him before saying he should worry about him doing something to him. He demands that Hamilton introduce him with conviction and pride, but after a few attempts, Shane grabs Hamilton by the tie and forces him to the stage before threatening to beat him up after one too many unsatisfactory attempts. Hamilton provides an attempt that Shane considers satisfactory, then allows Hamilton to go back to ringside while he leaves.

The Hardy Boyz (Jeff and Matt Hardy) beat The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) to become the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions, marking their eighth tag team title reign in WWE. Before Kayla Braxton can interview The Hardy Boyz, Lars Sullivan shows up. Sullivan slides into the ring and easily lays The Hardys out.

Becky Lynch shows up. She admits that it has been quite a week, and that she did exactly what she said she would do at WrestleMania. She tried to celebrate last night on Raw, then Lacey Evans showed up and hit her. Becky says that she was reminded that she holds two targets, and that she will be pulling double duty. She dares every last challenger to bring it on, and says that if she has to beat everyone up and sleep with one eye open, she will do it in order to keep both titles. As Becky leaves and raises up both women's titles, she is sucker punched by Lacey Evans.

Before the next match, Sami Zayn shows up, then tells the crowd "Yeah...you're not worth it."
