This match was booked for 12 minutes and it was an excellent match as long as it went on fairly. Neither of the two dominated the match as both had their chances. At the end of the match, Owens hit a Swanton on Solo and when he was about to pin him, Jimmy Uso interfered. This exact outcome was needed on SmackDown during Solo vs. Sami.
Back to the match, Jimmy and Solo started beating down Owens really badly as Sami Zayn came out and attacked Jimmy and Solo. He tried to hit both of them with steel chair, but they escaped. He then offered the hand of friendship to Owens. But Owens refused to take it and left.
Match 2 – Bianca Belair defeated Carmella
This match was a booked for nine minutes and it was a classic babyface vs heel match. Chelsea Green was in Carmella’s corner during the match who kept on assisting Carmella throughout the match. The way Green kept on going against Bianca, anyone else would have lost the match, but it is Bianca you know. She just cannot lose.
Of course she had to be protected before her big match at WWE WrestleMania 39. Bianca pinned Carmella with the KOD. After the match, Green and Carmella started beating down Bianca together. Asuka came out for the save and she attempted hit the Blue Myst on Carmella but she ducked it and it hit the face of Green.
Backstage on RAW Sami Zayn confronted Kevin Owens. Sami said that it would be impossible for Kevin to deal with the Bloodline all alone. They should team up once again. Kevin reminded him that he was fighting the Bloodline for eight months, and he was all alone from the very first day. Kevin also reminded him that he still remembered Sami being in the Bloodline. So he did not want to team up with him.
Next up on RAW is the face to face confrontation between Seth Rollins and Logan Paul. The Miz was the middle man to host the confrontation. It was a great, entertaining segment which the fans totally rejoised. At the end it turned violent as Miz and Paul attacked Rollins together. Rollins might have take care of the Miz, but he could not avoid the right hand of Paul.
