WWE Raw Results returned as the introductions were made and once in the ring Gable tried to use his speed, but ate a Thez Press and rolled to the floor where he took a elbow off the apron.
Reed and Otis stared at each other for a minute before Reed threw Gable back into the ring and continued to maul him.

Gable avoided a Tsunami and locked in a ankle lock and then tried to chop Reed down, but Reed fought free but was taken down with a shoulder and Gable followed it with a diving headbutt off the top rope for a pin attempt.
Gable powered Reed up for a German suplex for a near pinfall, but Otis was distracted by Maxine Dupree and Reed nailed Gable with a power slam and closed it out with a Tsunami for the win.
Lashley makes a statement
Elias was in the ring and told Rick Books to tag notes backstage, and he talked about this is the time of the year when stars come out and none are bigger than Elias.
He asked who wants to walk with Elias at WrestleMania, and Bobby Lashley came out in response.

Elias went after Lashley as he entered the ring, and Lashley caught him with a Yurinagi, then slammed him into the barricade and the ring post.
Back in the ring, Lashley hit a spear and clapped on the Hurt Lock.
Lashley then called Lesnar out for panicking in the Hurt Lock and hit a low blow because no one can break it.
He won’t take any disrespect, and anyone that does disrespect him he’ll put them down.
United States Championship – Austin Theory (c) vs. Edge
The match started with a brief feeling out period where Edge took Theory down, then patiently waited for his next move.
After leap frogging Theory coming and going, he dragged him to the floor and planted him face first on the floor.
A back and forth followed as Edge played hide and seek with Theory before back dropping him on the floor and hitting a diving forearm off the apron for a pin attempt.
Theory kept coming and gained the upper hand to hit a fallaway slam for a pin attempt.
Edge fought Theory off on the top rope and hit a cross body to Theory’s back to buy some time.
Edge missed a spear, but locked in a crossface. Theory made it to the ropes with his feet to force the break.
Theory went for an A-Town Down but Edge slipped free and hit a Edgucution for a near pinfall.

Finn Balor came out to hit Edge with a kick and Theory hit a A-Town Down for the win.
Balor then stomped away on Edge, and he his a Coup de Grace and then a second and third one to drive the message home their feud isn’t over.
This was a good match, but the run ins and interferences are as routine now as they were when Vince McMahon ran the show and it’s become just as predictable as then.
