RAW

Raw opens with a title card paying tribute to Bobby Heenan.
 We go live to the arena, Kurt Angle makes his way out.
Angle talks about Cena vs. Reigns and Lesnar vs. Strowman, but before he can get to any other matches on the card, The Miz interrupts him with Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel.
The Miz complains about not having a match on the No Mercy card. Angle says Matt Hardy, Jeff Hardy, Elias and Jason Jordan will compete to see who gets to face Miz for the IC title. Miz says there are countless Superstars more deserving than Jordan like Dallas and Axel.
Miz criticizes Angle's ability to manage Raw and how he has failed to be a father to Jordan. This brings out Jordan to threaten Miz. He suggests Angle add Dallas and Axel to the No. 1 Contender's match and Angle agrees. Miz insults Jordan, so the former tag team champion tackles him. Dallas and Axel try to pull him off, but he ends up sending all three men out of the ring while Angle watches.


Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax

Nia Jax won 
Bayley makes her return.
Bliss and Banks stand up and Bayley take down Jax with a triple spear.
Bliss tries to celebrate with Banks and Bayley, but they aren't having it. Banks kicks her and Bayley hits a suplex.

Sheamus gives a pre-match promo telling people to stop caring about nostalgia acts like The Hardy Boyz. Cesaro  rants on the RAW Tag Team Champions and says something will go very wrong for them at No Mercy. They go on about how Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose  are only out for themselves, and how their friendship is fake.Rollins and Ambrose come out and declare they are brothers again. They mock Cesaro and Sheamus' outfits, and then Anderson and Gallows come out to add their two cents to the conversation.

Anderson and Gallows call everyone in the ring nerds, which sets Ambrose off. He attacks The Club while Rollins goes after The Bar. The champs send everyone out of the ring as we head to a break.
