RAW

The show opens with a video package recapping Big Cass reuniting with Enzo last week only to turn on him again and throw him down the entrance ramp.
Enzo kicks off the show to a huge pop from the crowd and chants of Enzo when he gets in the ring. He talks about Big Cass turning on him after he has been beat up by everyone else over the past year in hotel rooms and backstage.
Enzo talks about being the toughest guy to step through the ropes in a long time and how he has been taken advantage of because he has a heart of gold. He talks about never wanting to turn to the dark side and how grateful he is for all the kids who wear his shirts and wigs. These past few weeks have given him a chance to show there is more to him than a silver tongue.
Enzo says Big Cass is nothing more than a seven-foot catchphrase that he wrote and he has dug himself out of holes bigger than seven feet. He says he should wear a shirt that says Casshole if he wants to see another merch check. He is about to leave, but then he grabs the mic and says he is not done. He talks about Cass killing the part of him that trusts other people and says all eyes are on him now.
We see Cass watching from backstage and Charly walks up and asks for a reaction. He says Enzo talks without actually saying anything and he won't be walking after Sunday.
While Cass is talking, Enzo comes out of nowhere and jumps him from behind. It takes several people to break them up.
It will be an interesting watch at Great Balls of Fire.

Sasha Banks and Bayley vs. Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss

Sasha Banks and Bayley won but mainly Sasha. Bayley was sent to the back after Jax took 
her out.

Cedric Alexander vs. Noam Dar w/ Alicia Fox at ringside.

Cedric Alexander won

Miz TV
The Miz says he brought the rating last week and exposed the Ball family for being overrated. He says Lonzo will be the biggest bust in NBA history, and the crowd seems to agree. Then he moves onto Dean Ambrose, saying he represents wasted potential.
The Miz claims Ambrose can't handle success and always caves under the pressure. He talks about being a top guy and thriving under pressure. The Lunatic Fringe comes out and says he thought we would never see MizTV again after the trainwreck last week. Then he says Miz was right about him, but also says he doesn't care if he has two bodyguards because he might just come to the ring and beat him up anyway. He proposes a rematch tonight, but then Heath Slater and Rhyno make their way out.
Slater reminds everyone how he was the last person to pin Miz and how he has never had a shot at a singles title in his eight-year run. Miz says he and Maryse have a party to attend, but before he can finish Kurt Angle comes out.
Angle books Ambrose vs. The Miz for the title at Great Balls of Fire, but he must first defend the title against Heath Slater right now.

Heath vs. Miz (C) for the IC Title w/ Dean Ambrose on commentary and Axel and Dallas at ringside.

Rhyno gets into a fight with the Miztourage at ringside, which distracts Slater long enough for Miz to hit the Skull Crushing
Finale for the pin and the win.
Miz won.
Ambrose runs to the ring, but ends up on the receiving end of
a beating from Miz and his 
cronies. The champ drops him with another Skull Crushing Finale before celebrating with
Dallas and Axel. 

Goldust is in the ring when we return and he talks about how all this is possible because of R-Truth being naive. He plays his new film titled "The
Shattered Truth."

After the film, Truth is standing behind Goldust with some popcorn. He attacks his former partner and sends him retreating up the ramp.

hand before the bell. the match starts and Rollins puts him away with a knee to the face.

 are not a god!"

Exclusive interview with the Universal Champion Brock Lesnar and Samoa Joe prior to their match this Sunday. 
Which may I add will be freaking insane.
Joe and Lesnar exchange some insults right away. Joe says Lesnar has done nothing in 
every one of their confrontations. He says Lesnar is being kept far away for his own protection. Brock lists off some of the people he has defeated, and Joe does the same thing.
Joe takes off his mic and starts looking for Lesnar backstage. Brock and Heyman think this is funny. Some officials try to stop him, but he just storms past them. He finds the room Lesnar is in, but he is held back by about a dozen people. Brock taunts him while he gets dragged away.

Neville vs. Mustafa Ali
Neville won

Wyatt delivers another one of his vague promos from some random desert.


Finn Balor vs. Cesaro

The Hardys head to ringside and get into a fight with Sheamus and Samson. Balor takes out everyone with a dive over the top rope. Matt hits Elias with a Twist of Fate before being leveled by Sheamus. Balor gets Cesaro back in the ring for the Coup de Grace to pick up the win.

Titus comes out and tells Strowman he would love to come
down and slap him in the mouth, but tonight is Apollo's night
Braun Strowman vs. Apollo Crews
Braun Strowman won
Titus gets in the ring and tries to fight Braun, but he gets knocked down immediately. Strowman delivers another powerslam to the leader of Titus Worldwide. He throws Crews over the barricade and drags him toward the ambulance near the stage. He opens the doors and throws Crews in. He tries to signal the ambulance to leave, but it stays put. He checks the driver's side and Reigns bursts out with a big punch. Braun gets sent into the LED wall before Reigns Spears him off the stage onto a few tables.

 The show ends with Reigns celebrating on the stage while Strowman gets to his feet.
