RAW

Raw opens with a recap of last week's opening segment involving Reigns, Strowman and Samoa Joe before we go the usual opening video. When we go live to the arena, Kurt Angle makes his way to the ring.
Angle says he has a great show planned and hypes Big Show vs. Big Cass, MizTV with Jason Jordan and the Triple Threat main event with Joe, Roman and Braun. Angle says he wanted to address the WWE Universe and talks about this being the 21st anniversary of when he won a gold medal with a broken freakin neck.
Brock Lesnar makes a surprise appearance and heads to the ring.
Paul Heyman says he has figured out what Angle is trying to do by booking him in a Fatal 4-Way match so he is almost guaranteed to lose the Universal Championship.
Angle stands there while Heyman gives a promo about why the match at SummerSlam is a bad idea. Heyman says if Lesnar loses the title at SummerSlam, both of them will leave WWE for good.


The Hardy Boyz vs. Anderson and Gallows w/ The Revival at commentary

The Hardy Boyz won
They celebrate on the stage until Dash and Dawson start talking some trash. A fight breaks out, which Anderson and Gallows decide to join. Matt and Jeff end up taking out everyone to be the last team standing.


Ambrose tells Rollins backstage that he still doesn't trust him despite how well they worked together last week.



Rollins will battle Sheamus later tonight. We probably we'll see Ambrose at some point.




Swann, Tozawa and Alexander vs. Daivari, Nese and TJP

Swann, Tozawa and Alexander Won.



Miz Tv w/ The a Guest Jason Jordan who is the "son" of Kurt Angle.
Miz says Jordan will just have everything handed to him since he is Angle's son. Jordan says he doesn't want preferential treatment and wants to earn his spot. Miz tells him not to be an idiot and take his advice. Jordan says he would rather lose his job than be associated with The Miz.
Miz runs down Angle and Jordan in his usual vicious manner, even bringing some realism by calling out Angle for his past transgressions. Jordan gets defensive and gets in Miz's face. Axel and Dallas gets in his way, but Miz backs them off. He takes a wild swing and Jordan suplexes him into Dallas and Axel before leaving the ring.


Seth Rollins vs. Sheamus w/ Cesaro at ringside
Seth Rollins won
Cesaro attacks Rollins from behind after the match.
Sheamus and Cesaro hit a super White Noise on Rollins while the crowd 
chants for Ambrose. The tag champs are about to leave, but change their mind and head 
back for more. Ambrose finally appears to even the odds. Cesaro and Sheamus get the upper hand and put Dean away with a Neutralizer.
Ambrose wants more and Cesaro and Sheamus give it to him; Sheamus finishes off Ambrose with a Brogue Kick.Both Ambrose and Rollins are down and out.I still want Ambrose and Rollins to become Tag Team Champions. (I can wish)

Bray Wyatt heads to the ring while the crowd lights up the arena with phone lights.

He criticizes the Balor Club and says everyone has been infected by the sickness of hope.
The crowd is growing restless as Wyatt continues to rant about the same things we have heard him talk about for the past few years. He breaks down into creepy laughter before asking how it felt to see Balor beaten up last week.
The lights go out and Balor appears in the ring with his back turned. Wyatt tries to attack, but Finn sends him out of the ring with an overhead kick and into the crowd with a dropkick over the barricade. Balor celebrates as the crowd cheers him on.

Bayley won by count out
Bliss tries to attack Bayley after the match, but Bayley escapes the ring and celebrates her win.



Big Show vs. Big Cass
Enzo jumps Cass and causes a DQ. The big man throws Enzo off his back and knocks him out with one shot to the head. Big Show gets up and hits a KO Punch to a charging Cass.
The show ends with Big Show and Enzo celebrating and Big Show carrying Amore up th ramp to close the show.

Rating 60/60

Great show and matches. Wish there was more women apart of raw though. But, it was great leading up to SummerSlam. It could've been better but had decent parts.
