RAW before Royal Rumble

This is the going home show before Royal Rumble on February 1.

**Saturday Night’s Main Event — IMO — I have no clue why these shows keep going, nothing really earth-shattering happens. No title changes or anything. The highlight for me was the sweet chin music Shaun Michaels hit Kevin Owens with. (Creative needs to have a better look at the event.)

Tonight’s show is in Atlanta, Georgia

Don’t get me started on the return of Logan Paul. For me, he has no credibility. He has not done the hard yards, the years or the struggle.

Pat and Cole are back at the announcer’s desk with Alicia handling the ring announcing duties.

Seth Rollins is on his way to the ring to open the show. Seth’s first Royal Rumble, which lasted 43 minutes, was in 2019. Gunther has decided to make an appearance in the ring with Seth. Of course, Logan Paul has to get in the mix. I hope Gunter or Seth or both of them knock his lights out. The Universe is giving Paul heaps. It’s hard to hear him.

The Raw Men’s Tag titles are on the line as War Raiders defend them against Judgement Day (J.D and Dominick) How is J.D. still walking after that head knock. Carlito showed up trying to help but it backfired. Even with all that mess, Eric and Ivar hang on to the titles. (Cole made a good point, no sign of Finn since he lost to Damien)

Zelina Vega is moving to Smackdown as part of the transfer window. The transfer window closes on Royal Rumble weekend.

Rey Mysterio facing Xavier Woods in a singles match. The Universe is still giving New Day grief after everything they have done. Thanks to a distraction coming from Xavier’s family, Rey gets the win.

Jey Uso is in the ring.

Bianca Belair and Naomi on the way to the ring for a Women’s Tag match against Liv Morgan and Raquel. Thanks to some help from Dirty Dom, Liv and Raquel get the win.

Paul Heyman is in the ring cutting a promo for 2K25 with Roman on the cover. Paul tells the Universe that Roman will win the Royal Rumble and will take back his title from Cody. Just as Paul is about to exit the ring Drew McIntyre comes out. Not sure about all of this.

Sami Zayn is facing Drew McIntyre who he has never beaten. This match had been all Drew but Sami somehow managed to turn the tables and is holding his own. Sami keeps finding a way to keep surviving but I don’t know for how long. Drew stole the win by using the ropes to help him. Drew was taking out Sami for sure but Cody came out to help, here comes Kevin to work on Cody. Drew was working on Cody but another Hulima kick from Sami just as Drew gets out of the way. I am not sure what to think of any of this storyline. Is this setting up a storyline for Rumble or what? Sami has lost the plot to a point, and Drew takes him out because he helped Roman.

Cody is still in the ring with CM Punk cutting a promo for the Rumble and heading to Wrestlemania. (Cody has a nice shiner thanks to Sami)

See you for NXT and Smackdown
