Hello and welcome to WWE Raw Results!
This should be an interesting night as we’ll get to see how they bring Elias back, and we have at least one Money in the Bank Qualification match and we’re stoked for that.
Let’s get to the action!
The show started with a quick remembrance graphic for former referee Tim White, who passed away the other day.
Bianca Belair came out to start the night off, and welcomed us to WWE Monday Night Raw, and she’s looking forward to defending her title against Rhea Ripley at Money in the Bank in two weeks.
She said she wished she didn’t have to break this to the fans, but Ripley won’t be medically cleared to compete.
She asked who she’ll defend against, and then said there are five women competing in a fatal 5 way to face her.
Becky Lynch came out and said there’s only on real challenger, and how they had the best match in WrestleMania in history, and Belair cheated her and helped her lose to Asuka and HIAC.
Asuka came out and mocked Lynch once again and Lynch pointed out she won the last two time they faced each other.
Liv Morgan was next, and she’s always ready for a fight. Carmella came out but couldn’t figure out why Morgan’s part of the group since she’s not a former champion.
Alexa Bliss closed out the competitors coming out and mocked Carmella for claiming Morgan is riding Bliss’ coattails.
Belair called for the match and it looks like we’ll have it next.

Morgan went for a sunset flip, and they rolled around the ring a couple of times. Bliss rolled her up and they rolled around the ring again as they trues to pin each other before Bliss kicked out.
They caught each other with rights and Carmella went back and forth a couple of times with pin attempts.
Asuka went after Carmella and caught her with a spinning fist, but Lynch pulled Asuka to the floor.
Carmella shoved her off and Morgan took out everyone on the floor as we headed to commercial.
Lynch tripped Morgan into he turnbuckle and went for a pin attempt, then headed to the top but Carmella leg scissored her onto Morgan for a pin attempt Asuka broke up.
Lynch hit the Man Handle slame on Morgan but Asuka pulled her off to the floor, and Bliss headed to the top rope but Morgan got her knees up and Carmella slipped in to hit a superkick on Morgan and get the win.
This was an awesome match. Hope the WWE lets their women get longer matches like this going forward.
Backstage, Lynch ripped into Adam Pearce about how many times she’s going to get shafted, so they set up her and Asuka to have their qualifying match tonight.
It left her frustrated and wondering what’s going on.

Mr. McMahon came out to a decent pop. He pointed out this is the 1,517 edition of Raw, making it the longest running episodic television show in history and he thanked the fans.
Out of the show’s 35 years, 20 of them were dominated by John Cena and added he’ll appear next week and touted Cena’s loyalty.
Riddle gave the same speech we’ve heard the last couple of weeks with the loss to Roman Reigns thrown in amid weak RK-Bro chants.

Riddle went after Omos and tried to chop him down with kicks, but Omos tossed him across the ring and caught him with a sidewalk slam as Riddle came off the ropes.
After taking plenty of abuse, Riddle went after Omos again, and Omos caught him in a bear hug to punish Riddle’s ribs.
Riddle countered a chokeslam with a jump knee, and he followed it with a could of running forearms Omos halted by throwing him acrost the ring.
Omos caught Riddle’s RKO attempt with a chokeslam for the win.
After the win. He chokeslammed Riddle a second time to send a message.
While Riddle was down, Seth Rollins came out and hit Riddle with a cheap shot and sent him to the floor.
Rollins taunted Riddle for being a loser after losing everything, then said he shouldn’t be too hard on him since Rollins is the only one capable of beating Reigns.
He promised we haven’t seen anything yet and Riddle attacked him from behind. Rollins nailed him and planted him with a Stomp.
