According to a Facebook post from Adam Pearce, there is fallout from what happened at the end of RAW last week when Brekker/Reed attacked Seth. Chatter is that Seth will have to vacate the World Title due to a shoulder injury needing surgery. (from the coast to coast during Crown Jewel in his match with Cody)
Wade/Joe are at the announcer’s table tonight with Lillian Garcia filling in tonight for Alicia Taylor, who has the night off.
Pearce is in the ring, but Braun/Reed have just shown up. I get the feeling that Braun thinks he will be given the title, but no clue at this point. Pearce just told the Universe that Seth is on the shelf until further notice. New champ to be crowned at Saturday Night Main Event in Salt Lake City. Battle Royal to determine who CM Punk will face. Brekker is being a little shit to Adam when told that he will hand over the title. Braun handed it to Paul, who in turn handed it to Pearce.
RAW Men’s Tag Titles on the line as A.J. Styles/Dragon Lee go to war with Judgement Day(Finn/JD). Dragon Lee went flying over JD to save the match. Finally, bout time, Dragon Lee and A.J. Styles have just won the Men’s Tag Team Belts. Let’s hope this is just the start of things to come tonight.
Intercontinental Men’s Title — Dirty Dom is on his way to the ring to defend against Rusev. Dom cheated last week against Penta, will the same be tonight? Once again, Dom took the bell hammer. Not again, a low blow, and he keeps the belt.
Women’s Intercontinental title on the line as Becky Lynch defends against Maxxine Dupree. (Just a thought, will Becky drop the title so she can be with Seth as he recovers?) Of course, Becky got herself disqualified to keep the title.
Stephanie Vaquer is heading to the ring for singles action against Roxanne Perez. Roxy, who seems to think she should be the women’s champion, not Steph. Steph eventually gets the win, but at the start of the post-match beatdown, Nikki Bella comes to Stephanie’s rescue.
30-man battle royal to determine who will face CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event for the Heavyweight title. Jey Uso is going to Saturday Night’s Main Event to face CM Punk. CM Punk is at ringside.
