WWE Raw Results returned as Kevin Owens got the KO Show going with Chad Gable already in the ring with him.
He started off saying he despises lairs and called Ezekiel out for lying about not being Elias, and Gable’s there to oversee a lie detector test.
Gable promised to beat the truth out of Ezekiel in a match after the test if he lies, and Owens introduced Ezekiel.
Ezekiel thanked Owens for having him on the show and denied he’s Elias and Owens wasn’t having any of it.

Before the test, Ezekiel asked “Who wants to hear Zeke speak?” but Owens had Gable hook him up since it was the same as Elias’ catchphrase.
After asking Ezekiel to answer honestly and dishonestly, he asked if his name’s Ezekiel and he answered yes.
Gable said he’s telling the truth. So, Gable asked if Elias is his older brother, and Ezekiel said yes and it came up as true.
Owens wasn’t buying the results, so Owens asked if his real name is Elias and Ezekiel said no and it came up as true, and Owens booted Gable from the ring.
Ezekiel stood up and told Owens he’s done being called a liar by WWE’s biggest liar and he’s excited as he has his first ever WWE match right now.
Owens demanded he tell the truth or else, and when Owens left Gable attacked him from behind.
Ezekiel vs. Chad Gable
Ezekiel went after Gable as soon as the bell rang and after stomping Gable down, he threw him across the mat and took it to the floor.

It looks like he has a different style than he did as Elias.
Gable turned the turned this around and worked on Ezekiel’s left knee and hit a Northern Lights suplex for a pin attempt, and then went back to work on Ezekiel’s left leg.
Ezekiel had a leg lock in, but Otis attacked him from behind to get Gable disqualified, then he helped Gable out of the ring.
RK-Bro (Randy Orton, Riddle) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins, Montez Ford)
Orton and Dawkins started it off and after Orton posed, Dawkins caught him with a corkscrew elbow off the ropes, but Orton maintained control and tagged in Riddle.
Ford blind tagged in and hit a dropkick on Riddle for a pin attempt, and then Ford headed to the top rope but Riddle jumped up and hit a Spanish Fly as we headed to commercial.

Riddle fought free and tagged in Orton and he took it to Dawkins with a powerslam and then he and Riddle hit double draping DDT on Ford and Dawkins.
Riddle tagged in for an RKO attempt and the Uso’s music plated and the Profits ambushed RK-Bro and Ford hit a neckbereaker for an Electric Chair on Riddle for the win.
After the match, Ford wondered who would cue the Uso’s music at such an unfortunate time, and they reminded RK-Bro there’s more than the Usos to worry about
Edge calls out Styles
Edge and Damian Priest gave a promo from a dark office and Edge pointed out how Priest did all the work at last year’s WrestleMania only for Bad Bunny to take all the glory.
He then went on a rant about how he fought to get back and had to beg for an opponent at WrestleMania and slammed fans for calling him a part timer and other comments made.
He then challenged AJ Styles for WrestleMania Backlash.
Styles accepted the challenge as the lights flickered and Edge and Priest appeared on both side of him and beat him down.
