RAW


Vince McMahon comes out to open the show. Before he can speak for too long, Roman Reigns' music hits and he walks to the ring.

Vince warns Reigns not to attack him or he will be arrested before asking why he is on Raw. Reigns tells him to watch his tone. Roman talks about being on Raw for years and how he wants to leave it better than he found it. He talks about when the McMahons said the fans are The Authority in December and how nothing has changed.

Reigns says he listens to the WWE Universe, not McMahon. Daniel Bryan's music hits and he heads to the ring, surprising both Vince and Roman.

Bryan says he was robbed at WrestleMania by Kofi Kingston. He spent the last month meditating in solitude. Bryan says he and Vince need to have an intellectual conversation before Kofi's music hits and he walks down the ramp.

Kofi says Bryan should have come to him if he had a problem. Bryan calls him an undeserving champion who never should have received a title shot. Vince interrupts and says he had an epiphany. He suggests having a wildcard rule to members of Raw and SmackDown can go to the other show from time to time.

Bryan wants a rematch for the WWE Championship, and while the two continue to bicker, Drew McIntyre makes it to the ring and calls Reigns an egomaniac.

Drew McIntyre's music hits and he comes out to complain about SmackDown Superstars showing up on Raw. He threatens to send Reigns back to Tuesday with a Claymore. Vince proposes a WrestleMania rematch between the two. He also suggests a WWE Title match with Kofi and Bryan before AJ Styles comes out on the stage.

After the break, Styles criticizes Vince's wildcard rule idea. Seth Rollins comes out and yells at AJ for sucker punching him last week. After some arguing, Vince suggests AJ and Seth team up to take on a mystery tag team.

Seth Rollins and AJ Styles vs. Bobby Lashley and Baron Corbin

AJ goes for the Phenomenal Forearm and Corbin moves so he ends up hitting Rollins. AJ sees what he did and just rolls out of the ring to walk away. Rollins gets up so Corbin can hit End of Days for the pin and the win.


Sami Zayn is out after the break to talk about what is wrong with the WWE Universe this week. He says people complain about Raw too much and we have to live with our miserable selves all of the time. He says fixing yourself takes time and the announcers say someone needs to shut him up.
As Sami continues to trash the WWE Universe, Braun Strowman heads to the ring. Zayn takes off his jacket like he is ready for a fight, but as soon as Braun jumps into the ring, Zayn runs away through the crowd. Braun chases him through the crowd and back to the ringside area. Zayn runs all the way to the back as Strowman gives chase.
Sami ends up corning himself backstage and tries to escape under a garage door. Braun grabs his foot and pulls him back in. He picks Sami up and puts him in a dumpster. Braun sees a garbage truck drive up and dump everything into its container.


Lucha House Party vs. Three Jobbers

Lucha House Party won 


Ricochet vs. Robert Roode  

Ricochet won and remains in the MITB Ladder Match. 

Lacey Evans vs. Jobber


Naomi, Dana Brooke and Natalya come out as requested by Evans. Apparently, Alexa Bliss was invited, too. Evans puts the enhancement talent in the corner and kicks her in the ribs. She hits the Women's Right for the pin and the win. The four women at ringside do not look impressed.
As Evans delivers a post-match promo, Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring. She goes right after Evans and beats her down. Lacey barely escapes the DisArmHer.


The Viking Raiders vs. Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder

The Viking Raiders won


Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre 

McIntyre jumps off the top rope right into a Superman Punch to give Reigns another two count. The Big Dog nails the Spear but Shane McMahon and Elias attack him before he can make the cover to cause a DQ. 

The Miz runs down to the ring with a
chair and sends Shane running for the hills. Elias and McIntyre continue attacking Reigns in the ring. We head backstage to see Shane trying to hide from The Miz as he runs by with his chair. Charly Caruso tries to interview Shane but he just walks away to his limo. The Miz comes out from behind a wall and hits him with the chair. The A-Lister beats on him until Shane kicks him below the belt and escapes in his limo.

The Usos come out to taunt The Revival before the match. They claim to have put some Icy Hot in their trunks and The Revival suddenly start to feel uncomfortable. The Usos give them some water and they pour it down their trunks, which just makes the burn worse. So Dumb.

Lars Sullivan comes out and destroys No Way Jose and his conga line. The Freak hits Jose with his signature running powerbomb.

Kofi Kingston (c) vs. Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship
Kofi Kingston retains the WWE Championship

The show ends with Kofi celebrating his win.

Rating: 50/50
It could’ve been better there was some decent matches and segments as we get closer to MITB.
