Hello and welcome to WWE Raw Results!
Tonight looks like it’s going to be an interesting one with Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley having their weigh in for the Royal Rumble’s Go Home Episode.
Without further ado, let’s get to the action!
The weigh in
The show started off with the weigh in taking place in the ring with Adam Pearce and Corey Graves attention. Bobby Lashley came out first with MVP at his side.
Brock Lesnar was introduced next as is customary, but Paul Heyman came and Graves grief for stealing his schtick and introduced Lesnar himself to a loud pop.
Is it a prediction … or a SPOILER that @fightbobby will end @BrockLesnar's #WWEChampionship reign this Saturday at #RoyalRumble?#WWERaw @HeymanHustle @The305MVP pic.twitter.com/Ze33X5QZ3o

Graves told Lesnar his attire (jeans, heavy coat, cowboy hat) weren’t appropriate, and Lesnar responded by asking him if he wants him to get naked.
Lashley’s weight was 273 pounds and MVP went on an awesome selling spiel to build Lashley and their match up.
Lesnar’s weight was 286 pounds, and Lashley called him out for acting the fool because he knows Lashley will beat him, and promised it’ll be the shortest title run of his career.
Lesnar said a mock headline about losing and a new champion Bobby Who?
Bianca Belair vs. Queen Zelina
Just when you thought @BiancaBelairWWE was in control, #QueenZelina COUNTERS in stunning fashion. 😉#WWERaw @TheaTrinidad pic.twitter.com/hKZUKqh0Hj

On their first lockup, Belair picked Zelina up and set her on the apron, then tossed her around the ring before hitting a dropkick.
Zelina gained the upper hand with a jawbreaker and a running knee.
Belair’s power led to a series of moves including a suplex, roll through, and then a stalling suplex.
Zelina countered her moonsault by getting her knees up and went for a Code Red, but Belair slipped free and hit a KOD for the win.
This was a better match than we expected. Good match to start off.
United States Championship – Damian Priest (c) vs. Kevin Owens

Owens went for a stunner at the start, but Priest shoved him off and they traded blows in the corner.
After eating a kick, Owens rolled to the floor for a break, but Priest followed him out and threw him into the barricade and into the ring but the action went back outside.
Priest hit a chokeslam on the ring apron as we headed to commercial.
Back from the break and Priest was still in control and hit a flatliner for a near pinfall as Owens wouldn’t give up.
Owens reversed a superplex into a floating DDT and then hit a frog splash for a near pinfall and a loud disappointing moan from the fans.
Owens held his left arm and Priest kept stomping on him. Owens hung him up on the ropes and rolled him up for a pin attempt.
Priest hit a clothesline and then snapped as he hammered on Owens until the ref disqualified Priest with plenty of boos cascading down.
Sounds like the fans are tired of Priest’s angle and these meh endings we’re regularly seeing.
6 Woman Tag Team Match – Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, and Dana Brooke vs. Nikki ASH, Carmella, Tamina
Tamina and Dana started it off, and Tamina mauled her from the start, but Dana fought back and slipped free to tag in Ripley.
Ripley cleared Team Nikki’s apron off, and took it to Tamina with a series of high impact moves and kicks.
Ripley hit a Fisherman’s Suplex for a pin attempt Carmella broke up the same time Tamina kicked out.
Carmella tagged in and mocked Ripley, and Ripley locked in a standing submission hold for the win.
After the match, Nikki hit Ripley from behind and backed up the ramp smiling and celebrating.
This was a strong start to the show, and WWE Raw Results hope they keep it up.
