Hello and welcome to WWE Raw Results!
This looks like it’s going to be an interesting show with the United States and Women’s Tag Championships on the line, and Kevin Owens wants to give Ezekiel a lie detector test.
Without further ado, let’s get to the action!
Rollins issues a challenge
Seth Rollins came out to start the show following a video recap of last week with him and Cody Rhodes and welcomed us to Monday Night Rollins.
He doesn’t want to party alone, so he wanted to make an invitation to Cody Rhodes and called him out for a chat.
Cody’s entrance was the shortest it’s been since he returned to the WWE and he was met with “CODY!” chants.
Rollins encouraged the cheers, and when they died down in time for the dialogue, Cody said this looks familiar as Buffalo if Rhodes country.
Cody worked to upstage Rollins and the fans responded, and Rollins said he was going to say how much respect he has for the Rhodes family, but instead he said he make Cody a star a WrestleMania.
Cody told him to get to the point, and Rollins said at WrestleMania he had an unfair advantage and Rollins lost.

So basically this is a rehash of their previous conversations.
Rollins stated he’s better than Cody on all counts, including how Rollins has been WWE Champion.
Cody pointed out that Rollins’ four trips to the mountain top didn’t help him at WrestleMania and said as management he learned mediation and asked the fans of Buffalo and got a cheer, meaning he’s better than Rollins.
Rollins challenged him to meet a challenger of his choosing, and Cody said everyone knows the answer since he didn’t come to WWE to run from challenges and accepted.
Women’s Tag Team Championship – Naomi and Sasha Banks (c) vs. Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan
Ripley started it off against Banks and sidestepped a dropkick to hit one of her own, the Liv blind tagged in for a double team.
Naomi tagged in and they returned the favor and Naomi came close to getting a pinfall.
Banks and Naomi took out Liv on the floor, but Ripley caught Banks’ crossbody and used her to nail Naomi before hitting a ripcord on the barricade as we headed to commercial.
Quite the turn of events for @RheaRipley_WWE and @YaOnlyLivvOnce… 😳 #WWERaw pic.twitter.com/6x4gqvhymK

After a double team, Ripley hit a Riptide on Naomi but Banks broke free of Liv’s hold to break up the pin.
Banks and Naomi responded by hitting a double team pinning combination on Ripley for the win.
After the match Liv tried to plead her case but Ripley wasn’t hearing it and told Liv she failed to be there for her, then she attacked Liv from behind and hammered away and hit a Riptide before leaving her.
Looks like Ripley’s a heel.
Sonya comes clean
Sonya Deville headed to the ring to address her actions toward Bianca Belair last week, and said she’s heard chatter that she’s misusing her power by challenging Belair.
She said she’s a competitor and was forced into management until she could find her way back to being a WWE Superstar.

She knew when Belair won the Raw Women’s Championship, she knew she wanted to face and beat her because she’s the best.
When she said it’s nothing personal and just business, Belair came out to confront her and Deville warned her off of attacking her since she’s currently an official.
Belair challenged her to a title match right there and then, but Deville said how about next week in her home town because she’ll have friends and family to console her.
Deville mocked her for losing titles fast and Belair picked her up for a KOD. Deville threatened to fine her so Belair dropped her and left the ring.
Veer vs. Jeff Brooks

Veer tossed him around with ease before locking in the Cervical Clutch for the win, then locked in it again to send a message until officials came out and he felt like letting him go.
Backstage, Deville learned her conduct is being looked into and Pearce personally fined her. It was a total of $1.
