WWE Raw Results returned as Bryan Saxton was in the ring as the Miz’s guest on Miz TV, and Miz relinquished his role to Saxton, which means Saxton will most likely take a finisher.
Miz admitted he regrets paying Dexter Lumis and only wanted some empathy, and though he never called off he never got a cheer or pat on the back.
Even when he helped Lumis get back on his feet he didn’t receive any congratulations and Lumis kept wanting more, so he had to put a stop to Lumis’ greed.
He claimed he was cooped up in his bedroom depressed and upset at what happened, and Johnny Gargano came out and said he wasn’t depressed because he was vacationing in Cabo.
Gargano pointed out Miz always lies, and Miz went after him for doing the same to get fans chanting “Johnny Wrestling” and the fans did in response and called Miz a shallow Mr. Rogers, and Miz lost it and shouted that he’s a good guy.

Miz apologized and asked if we can move on so he can be a cornerstone and role model. Gargano pointed out WWE liked the footage and Miz and Lumis will face off.
If Lumis wins, Miz has to pay him and he gets a WWE contract. Miz said he’ll face Lumis and it’ll be awesome. Gargano told him to tell him himself and Lumis came into the ring behind him and Miz ran off.
Backstage, Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest interrupted Shelton Benjamin’s interview, and he turned Priest’s challenge around to accept Domink’s.

Dominik played head games early on, but when Benjamin got his chance, he took it to Dom with several rights and a shoulder block before Dom retreated to the floor and hit behind Ripley.
Dom turned the tables and hammered away on Benjamin, and hit a hurricanrana, and sent him into the ropes for a 619, but Benjamin caught him and hit a powerslam and a running knee followed by an Exploder that sent Dom to the floor.
Benjamin locked in an ankle lock but Priest helped Dom to the ropes, and Dom took advantage of Benjamin yelling at Priest to shove him into the ring post, hit a DDT, then a frog splash for the win.
Theory makes excuses
Austin Theory was asked about his failed cash in last week, and he said no body understands the pressure he’s under. He was touted as the next big thing and exceeded that expectation and became the face of a franchise.
He pointed out how Roman Reigns has the Bloodline to back him up while he had no one, and Dolph Ziggler called him out for being the worst cash in in history and full of excuses.

After the match, Mia Yim came out and announced she joined Bianca Belair, Asuka, and Alexa Bliss for War Games.
Austin Theory vs. Dolph Ziggler
Theory took command from the start as he beat Ziggler down and countered his counters as he went to work on Ziggler with a backbreaker for a pin attempt.
Theory’s more deliberate instead of his usual brash self, and he didn’t let up even when Ziggler tried to turn it around with a boot and ate a clothesline in stead and was sent into the ring post.
Ziggler gained the upperhand with a DDT for a pin attempt, and it bought him some time to recollect himself.

Theory snapped and slammed Ziggler into the ring steps and announce desk for the disqualification.
Theory buried Ziggler in the time keeper’s area and pounded on him before officials came out to separate him. He stormed to the back muttering that he’s not a kid.
