As soon as we get to hear the name of Riddle, the former WWE Raw Tag Team Champion came out to the arena and he claimed that he is going to win the WWE in Universal Championship this week on SmackDown. Paul Heyman give him a stipulation that if he loses the match, he will never get an opportunity for the WWE Universal Championship in the future.
Match 1 – Jimmy Uso defeated Montez Ford
This match was a good way to start the night. It was booked for nearly 8 minutes and nobody in particular dominated the match. At the end of the match, Montez Ford lined up for a Frog Splash which Jimmy blocked with double knees and pinned him.
Seth Rollins was interviewed backstage where he said that he had a no remorse for whatever he did last week on Monday Night RAW. He also revealed that he is now concentrating on winning the Money in the Bank ladder match.
Becky Lynch was supposed to face Dana Brooke for the WWE 24/7 Championship in a rematch from last week but Becky was less interested in having the match so she beat down Dana Brooke really bad, and she announce that she would be competing in Money in the Bank ladder match.
Match 2 – Liv Morgan and Alexa Bliss defeated Nikki ASH and Doudrop
This was a Money in the Bank qualifying match where both members from the winner team gets to compete in the mitb match. This tag team match was booked for around four and a half minutes and it was won by the babyface side as Alexa Bliss pinned Dana Brooke with a DDT.
Match 3 – Ezekiel defeated Kevin Owens by count out
This was a rematch from Hell in a Cell but this time Ezekiel gets to win even though that was by count out. Owens was at the outside of the ring and got mad at the commentators for calling his opponent Ezekiel. Meanwhile he got counted out.
After the match, Ezekiel announced that he had set his mind for Money in the Bank. He also made an announcement that he is elder brother Elias is coming back to Monday Night RAW next week. This would be an interesting drama.
Match 4 – MVP defeated Cedric Alexander
It was the one minute long squash and a very easy win for MVP. Who would have expected that MVP could have had a squash victory at this stage of his career. He pinned Cedric Alexander with the Playmaker.
Match 5 – Seth Rollins defeated AJ Styles
Here is another Money in the Bank qualifying match and it was arguably the best match of the night. It was booked for 12 minutes and it was a pay per view standard match. AJ dominated the most part of the match. At the end, Seth pinned AJ with a roll up.
Match 6 – Riddle defeated Tommaso Ciampa
This match was booked for around 5 minutes and it was a good match. So Tommaso Ciampa is now a jobber or what? He is now lifting going into a World championship match? Is that what the main roster planned for him? Riddle pinned Ciampa with an RKO.
WWE Raw Women’s champion Bianca Belair came out to the arena and cut a promo on her upcoming match with Rhea Ripley and Money in the Bank. The Judgement Day appeared on the big screen and the explained why they took Edge out of their group. Rhea claimed that she would take the title away from Bianca at Money in the Bank.
Match 7 – Chad Gable defeated Mustafa Ali
This match was booked for 3 minutes and it was a little shocking that Mustafa lost this match clean. Gable pinned Mustafa with a German Suplex. It would be interesting to see where Mustafa heads from this.
Match 8 – Veer Mahaan defeated Rey Mysterio
This had been the greatest victory of Veer Mahaan’s professional wrestling career so far. Not only he defeated the formal three times world champion Rey Mysterio, he completely destroyed him. Veer made Rey submit with the Cervical Clutch.
The main event of the night was a post down competition between Theory and Bobby Lashley. The winner was scheduled to be determined via audience reaction. The competition was won by Bobby Lashley. After the post down, Theory sprayed on the face of Lashley and beat him down. Theory celebrated as this week’s RAW went of air.
Overall it was not a bad show but the spark is still missing. No World Championship segment will always be the worst point of any show. The main event of the night was really weak. Seth vs. AJ could have been the main event any day. Somehow the show was a little boring and there is nothing much to talk about it. We give it 1.5 stars out of 5.
