There will be fallout from the weekends events. I have heard a few things I will share as the morning plays out.
Why have Charlotte/Alexa not had the plates changed on the belts, unless they are waiting for them to be made? The titles are where they need to be; it’s time to get the tag division back up. Here is a tag team for you – Rhea/Iyo
Cole/Corey are at the announcers’ desk with Alicia Taylor taking care of ring announcing duties.
The show opens with a recap of the weekend. (It was John Cena’s request for Brock Lesnar to return for the show to help close out his career. Moved the belt to Cody, so they can build John/Brock)
***Rumour — Rhea did not win, so they can build a match with her and Iyo for Crown Jewel. Naomi will face Stephanie Vaquer at Clash in Paris. I think the title will change hands there. Have been reading that there is talk of a big push for Steph.
Seth, along with his merry band of idiots, is on the way to the ring. Bronson Reed still has Roman’s Shoes. We have a spoiler in the ring with Seth, L.A. Knight. As Seth was leaving, Adam Pearce came out, telling Seth that he would defend the belt tonight against Knight, Braun and Bronson, who are banned from ringside.
It’s time for a banger with Rusev on his way to the ring for a match with Sheamus.
**Karrion/Scarlet are NOT on RAW tonight. Their contracts are up this coming weekend.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I am more than over the New Day
Penta in singles action against Greyson Waller. New Day has wandered out, sitting at the announcer’s desk.
Naomi is on her way to the ring. She is going to have her hands full with Stephanie in Calsh in Paris on the 31st of August.
Alexa and Charlotte are in the ring for a chat when Roxy, also known as Raquel, makes her entrance. This situation makes me worry that the title plates have not been changed. I’m tired of hearing about Judgment Day all the time; it’s getting boring. Jess is on her way to the ring to referee the match. The lack of a plate change reminds me of when Becky and Lyra had the belts, and they changed hands the very next night. Here we go again. Roxy missed that Alexa was the legal competitor, and Alexa hit Roxy with Sister Abigail once more to secure the win.
Dirty Dom is on his way to the ring for singles action, facing Dragon Lee. Oh, geesh, 3 El Grande Americano showed up to take out Dragon Lee, to make sure Dom won. Rumour is 1 of them is Lugwid Kasier, another 1 is Pete Dunn, not sure who the third one is.
More rubbish on the way to the ring, Becky Lynch. Full of herself as a heel should be. OK, this should be interesting with Nikki Bella in the ring with Becky. Becky just brought up John Cena into all of this. Nikki just told Becky to put her money where her mouth is and put the title on the line.
**Injury Report — Gunther had a nose issue coming into the match with CM Punk, which became worse as his nose was broken. He needs surgery and will be out, with no return date listed.
Seth is in the ring for his match with L.A Knight. Title is on the line, Bronson/Braun have been banned from the ring. Paul Heyman is with Seth. You know the title won’t change hands. (Rumour – putting the belt on Seth to set up a feud with Punk) Seth tried to stomp Knight on the concrete bar floor at ringside, but Punk stopped him from connecting. Reed/Brekker came to the rescue. Seth just stomped Knight and Punk both in the ring. This title run is going to be ugly, to say the least, as long as Seth has the belt. (Rumour I have read is that Braun will turn on Seth) Oh crap, just as the goons were leaving, Roman showed up. First time since the betrayal at Wrestlemania, Seth and Roman have come face to face. Roman never saw the stomp coming. ( Bronson took Roman’s shoes again)
The Universe is not happy, and they are letting Seth know it.
