WWE Raw could hype up things to the extreme point before Summerslam. The Universal Champion’s presence and a surprise return should give a solid boost in TV ratings of the show. It began on an emotional note when Ronda Rousey paid tribute to Jim ‘The Anvil’ Neidhart. She offered a public condolence for Natalya’s father who passed away last night.
But Alexa Bliss was ready to interrupt things on WWE Raw. It has always been her show. So she could wait for the least amount of time to bring out the heel antics against the Rowdy superstar. The matchup between Alexa Bliss and Ember Moon was quite entertaining. But it was Rousey who stole the show. She gave a strong statement to the champion by beating the hell out of Alicia Fox to end the segment.
Baron Corbin is the other name who is constantly trying to get a push on WWE Raw roster. The officials are handing him big wins lately which might be a setup for another big victory at Summerslam. Meanwhile, Constable Corbin also arranged a pretty entertaining tag team match featuring Strowman, Owens, Mahal, and Balor. Strowman was finally able to pick up a win before heading to Summerslam.
Paul Heyman pulled off a legendary performance on WWE Raw by fooling Roman Reigns. Almost everyone fell for the words delivered by him. Everyone thought that Reigns would become the next ‘Paul Heyman guy’. But then it was a classic setup for the return of Brock Lesnar. The beating proves that the beast is hungry to victimize Reigns at his playground of Summerslam.
The finishing segment of WWE Raw was no less than phenomenal. The crowd anticipated the return of Dean Ambrose for a long time. The creative team finally offered them the same. This return would help the Intercontinental Championship match at Summerslam which was a complete stale, otherwise. This brought a solid end to last night’s show.
