Here are the results from tonight’s episode of Monday Night RAW (courtesy of PWInsider):

 


 

We are in Los Angeles, California and your announcers are Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Byron Saxton.

Roman Reigns makes his way to the ring.

 Roman says his bloodline has been represented in the WWE for a long time, but they never had anyone win the United States Championship . . . until now.  That is because he is THE GUY.  He comes out here and he represents his family on a nightly basis.

Lana’s music plays and she makes her way onto the stage and then she walks to the ring.

Lana tells Roman she came out here to talk to him, but her husband does not know.

Roman says they are in LA and there are cameras everywhere.  He says Rusev knows where she is because she is the only woman who would talk to him.

Lana says they are negotiating tonight.  She says her husband is challenging Roman to a match for the United States Championship.

Roman says it sounds like Rusev sent her out to do his dirty work while he hides behind her skirt.

Lana says Rusev is her family.  She says that Roman does not know about family and he has zero respect.  You came out and tried to destroy her wedding celebration.  She tells Roman to wipe the smile off his face and she calls him a stupid boy.  Lana says this is not funny and this is not a joke.  Lana says she will embarrass Roman and win the title back.

Roman says Lana needs to relax.  He tells her to go to the back and deliver to her husband his Bulgarian balls and tell him to come out and say it to his face.

Lana tells Roman to go to hell.

Rusev’s music plays and they battle in the aisle.  Rusev and Roman run each other into the ringside barrier while they exchange punches.  Roman sends Rusev into the ring and Roman sets for the Superman punch but Rusev catches Roman and runs him into the turnbuckles.  Rusev with punches and knees.  Rusev misses the jumping thrust kick and Roman with a punch.  Rusev goes to the floor and Roman goes for the Superman punch off the ring steps and Rusev connects with a round kick.  Rusev sends Roman into the ring steps and then he kicks Roman into the crowd.

Roman tells Lana if she wants him to go to hell, he is taking them both with him.  The rematch will take place inside Hell in a Cell.

We are back and we take a look at an interview taped earlier with Seth Rollins.   Seth is asked about the ribs and he says he was cleared to wrestle, but they told him to rest.  He was told not to be at Raw, but he is here.  Cole is interrupted and Seth says Kevin Owens may have won the match, but he was handed the title by Triple H.  He deserves a rematch after what happened at Clash of Champions.

Cole brings up that people compare Owens’ rise to Seth’s.  Seth says he has alienated a lot of people in the locker room.  They have both had success but Kevin does half the work and gets the promotion.  He is the teacher’s pet.  Triple H handed Kevin the Universal Title.  He was not handed anything when he cashed in the briefcase at Wrestlemania.  Everyone has a Kevin Owens in their lives, but he has THE Kevin Owens in his life.

Cole asks Seth about being replaced by Kevin Owens in the friendship with Triple H.  Seth says you cannot replace Seth Rollins.  Kevin is a cog in the machine.  Seth says his eyes are wide open and he sees things differently.  He will destroy that machine piece by piece.  It starts with Kevin Owens and the Universal title.  Cole asks how things will occur if he gets his title match.  Seth says he had Kevin beaten but then the referee gets knocked out.  Stephanie takes her time bringing a referee to the ring.  The forces are against him.  Things will play out with Seth Rollins canceling the Kevin Owens Show.  He will prove to the world that he is the man.

We are back and Byron Saxton is with Braun’s opponent and he wants to know why he accepted this match.  Chase Silver says he just moved from Idaho and your dreams can come true here.  Chase says he had a dream he beat Braun Strowman

Winner:  Braun Strowman

After the match, Byron Saxton asks Braun what is next.

Strowman says he is the gift of destruction and you are wasting his talent on weak fools week in and week out.  He tells Byron to tell Foley he wants competition next week or there might not be a next week.

Sasha Banks is stretching in the back and Bayley stops by.  Bayley says she cannot believe that Sasha and Charlotte are in the main event tonight.  It is Trish and Lita territory.

Sasha says it is more about the main event.  It is about winning back her title.  She says if she listened to the critics, she would not be in LA and she would not have a chance at being a two time champion.

Bayley says she cannot think of a more deserving person for the spotlight than Sasha.

Sasha says she will earn her place in history by winning the title tonight.

We go to commercial.

We are back and we are told that tickets for the Royal Rumble in San Antonio will go on sale next week.

We are told that Roman Reigns versus Rusev in a Hell in a Cell Match for the United States Title is official.

 Kevin Owens makes his way to the ring and he is joined by Chris Jericho and his list.

Kevin says he watched the interview that Michael Cole did with Seth Rollins and Cole was terrible.  He says that Seth should have listened to the doctor to heal up his ribs if he was smart.  Kevin says Seth is not smart.  Some might say he is stupid, or a stupid idiot.  Seth is asking for a rematch.

What has Seth done to earn his rematch?   He says that Seth can talk about what happened at Clash of Champions, but Seth lost.  If he wants to blame the person who cost him the match, he has to look right here.  Kevin says he is the one who beat Seth.  He is the one who is standing in the ring holding the WWE Universal Championship.

Kevin says people are asking why is the great Chris Jericho standing in the ring next to him.

Chris says it is because they are the best of friends.

Kevin says that is not the reason he is in here.  Kevin says the referee should be blamed.  Seth talks about the referee and how he should have been there.

Kevin says the people chanting ‘stupid idiots’ are acting like ‘stupid idiots’.   Kevin says if Seth can weasel his way into a match, they need the best referee and Chris should be the referee.

Chris says he has his own referee’s jersey but he says that Kevin is short sighted.  After beating Enzo and Colin last week, they are the best tag team in the WWE.  Chris says they should challenge the New Day.

Kevin wants to make sure that he understood Chris.  Kevin says it sounds amazing if they are tag team champions, but Cesaro and Sheamus have the tag title match.

Chris says Sheamus and Cesaro are not even friends.  They can face The New Day in a non title match, then beat them for the titles.  Then they will both be the Tag Team and Universal Champions at the same time.

Kevin says he has a lot on his plate. 

Chris says he is not asking for a shot at Kevin’s title.

Kevin says Team Kevin and Chris . . . Raw tag team champions.  Let’s DO IT.

The New Day make their way out to the stage.

Kofi says you aren’t in there talking about friendship because around here, we all know who has the best friendship in the WWE.  It is the New Day.

Chris asks if Kofi is questioning their friendship so Kofi is on THE LIST.

Big E starts to sing about friends.  He says they have heard the challenge and it means a champion’s huddle.  Kevin is welcome, but Chris is not.

Chris tells Big E that he just made THE LIST.

Chris sees Xavier laughing and that means that Woods is on THE LIST.

Kevin tells them to stop with the huddle.  If they don’t get what they want, the New Day can get out of here so the most entertaining people can continue.  Kevin says that they have won the titles, but they have corrupted the children with their unhealthy food.  He says that The New Day jumped the shark about six months ago.

Xavier points out that they do not swim and then he asks when was the last time that Kevin jumped over anything.

Kevin says that is good, but Woods is now on THE LIST a second time.

Woods says they were going to check out the Magnificent Seven or watch Luke Cage.  However, since you talked about throwing hands with the New Day, you have your match.  Woods says you are not dressed to fight so they will give them time to get ready.  Woods says Owens and Jericho will never become the WWE Tag Team Champions of the World.

We see Sheamus and Cesaro arriving at the arena together and they are arguing.  Cesaro throws Sheamus’ bag out of the car and then Sheamus says he is going to talk to Foley about this.

We go to commercial.

Mick Foley shows up and Mick says he was humbled by Stephanie McMahon last week.  He says he made them a team because he believes in them.  It is about traveling together. 

Cesaro asks Mick if he ever drove with someone who always picks his nose, but Sheamus says he was adjusting his nose ring.

Foley says they can change the face of tag team wrestling and he tells Sheamus and Cesaro to prove them right.
