WWE Raw Results returned as the introductions were made and Cody took control early with a series of holds and his drop punch, but the Miz dropped him with a kick for a pin attempt.
They continued to counter each other until Cody caught Miz with a right off the ropes and then hit a stalling suplex slam.
The Miz fought back and a couple of badly timed moves that included a sunset flip and a push out from a figure 4 attempt followed, but they worked through it and Miz dropped him on the ropes.

Miz booted Cody off the top rope and to the floor as we headed to commercial.
Cody came back with a series of moves including a powerslam and Cody Cutter before he locked in a figure 4 but Miz made it to the ropes to break the hold.
Cody headed to the top rope and the loudest pop of the night came when Rollins ran out and shoved him to the floor.
Rollins and Miz worked him over and sent him into the ring steps and Cody looked like he hurt his knee.
Rollins took Cody’s belt from the young fan and nailed Cody with it and then headed to the back.
Cody the limped back to the fan and gave him the belt as he limped past.
Ezekiel vs. Chad Gable w/Otis
Kevin Owens is at ringside, so he’s going to get involved at some point.
Gable and Ezekiel traded moves and counter moves early on until Otis tripped him in the ropes and Gable targeted Ezekiel’s left knee with several holds and knee twists.
Gable went for a moonsault but Ezekiel hit his feet up and followed it with a spinebuster.

Otis ended his run with a clothesline and the ref banned Otis from ringside.
Owens took the opportunity to get into the ring but the ref cut him off and banned him from the ringside as well.
Ezekiel took advantage to roll up Gable for the win.
After the match, Owens challenged Ezekiel to HIAC and Ezekiel accepted.
Backstage, Cody said his knee was dinged up and that’s fortunate, but it’s unfortunate for Rollins since he’s still breathing and he’s ready to finish things between them.
Bobby Lashley vs. MVP w/Omos
MVP ducked out of the ring right away to do some stretches, then went into the ropes to keep playing mind games with Lashley.
Lashley chased MVP to the floor and Omos leveled Lashley with a clothesline.

MVP threw him into the ring and hit a big boot in the corner and then mocked Lashley. Lashley came off he ropes and planted MVP with a Flatliner, then clotheslined MVP to the floor and ran MVP into the ring post.
Omos went for Lashley and Lashley ducked and hammered away on him for MVP to get the Count Out win.
After the match, Lashley locked in the Hurt Lock, then threw MVP aside.
Becky Lynch vs. Asuka
Bianca Belair is at ringside in a repeat of last week. Let’s see if the match will be a copy and paste as well.
They taunted each other early on, and Asuka ran over her with a shoulder block.
Lynch tried a roll up for a near pinfall, and Asuka backed her into a corner and hammered away.
After being sent to the floor, Lynch ducked a kick by Asuka on the apron and shoved Asuka into the ring post as we headed to commercial.
Lynch kept after Asuka after she was nearly counted out a couple of times and nailed her with a superman punch off the apron, threw her into the ring stairs, and hit a leg drop off the top rope for a near pinfall.

Asuka fought back and nailed a series of kicks and strikes on Lynch for a pin attempt.
Lynch tripped her into the corner and went for a pin with her feet on the ropes, but Asuka kicked out.
They continued to go back and forth as Asuka went for an armbar, and Lynch side stepped a hip attack and locked in a Dis-Arm-Her in the ropes.
Asuka knocked Lynch into Belair’s lap and Asuka hit Belair with a kick by accident, and Lynch dove into the ring. Asuka followed her and Lynch rolled her up for the win.
This was a great match, but Asuka went from dazed to running into the ring, and then not moving so she could be pinned.
This ending was just rough for whatever reason, but Lynch managed to add herself to the title match at HIAC.
