RAW



Raw opens with a recap of Seth Rollins beating Brock Lesnar last night for the Universal Championship.




Seth comes out looking tired but happy to have the universal title back. He says he wasn't sure he would beat The Beast last night. He puts Lesnar over as everything you would expect him to be in the ring. He says it was the crowd that got him through the match.

 
AJ Styles' music hits and he comes out with Anderson and Gallows.



Styles congratulates him but says Rollins now has to worry about the man standing in front of him. He challenges Rollins because he wants to prove he is a better champion. Seth says he lost respect for AJ and he never backs down from a fight. He accepts the challenge and promises to teach Styles some respect. AJ holds out his hand for a shake and even sends Anderson and Gallows out of the ring to prove he is being genuine. Rollins shakes his hand hesitantly.
