WWE Raw Results returned as Baszler and Ronda were asked what it’s like being the tag champs again, and Ronda said they’ve been overlooked but they earned it.
Baszler added they went through everyone and now they want to be recognized as the best.
Money in the Bank Qualifying Match – Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Bronson Reed
Reed started it off by driving Nakamura into the corner and pummeling him before he rolled to the floor to regroup, then goaded Reed back into the ring for a series of strikes that had no effect.
Reed hit a block, an elbow, and a steamroller. Nakamura stayed alive and chopped Reed down with shots to his leg and then a guillotine knee drop on the apron.

Nakamura countered a clothesline into an armbar attempt, but Reed powered out of it and nailed a clothesline for a near pinfall.
Nakamura fired off a few strikes and went for a kinsasha, but Reed caught him for a Samoan Drop. Nakamura played possum, but Reed caught him with a superkick off the top rope, a powerslam, but missed a Tsunami.
Nakamura hit a knee strike to Reed’s back, and then hit a kinsasha but Reed rolled to the floor. Once Reed got back in the ring, Nakamura greeted him with a second kinsasha for the win.
AJ Styles and Seth Rollins vs. The Judgement Day (Damian Priest, Finn Balor) w/Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio
Dom and Rollins started it off, and Balor jumped Rollins from behind and the ref called for the match to start as Dom was apparently a decoy.
Nice way to ignore the rules.
Rollins slipped to the floor and put his arm around Ripley while she posed and it lead to a comical moment.
Priest and Rollins squared off, and Priest caught him with a right off the top rope and then stomped him down.
Styles tagged in and unloaded on Priest and then Balor with a backbreaker on Balor while Rollins sent Priest to the floor with a knee.

Balor blind tagged in but Rollins avoided a Coup de Grace and hit a superkick to buy time. Priest avoided a Phenomenal Forearm and hit a Razor’s Edge for a pin attempt Rollins broke up with a Stomp and Styles tagged him in.
