Hello and welcome to WWE Raw Results!
Tonight looks like it’s going to be a interesting show with a tag title match, Nikki A.S.H. celebrating her win, and Bobby Lashley responding to Bill Goldberg’s challenge.
Without further ado, let’s get to the action!
Nikki A.S.H. started the show off by coming to the ring to a chorus of cheers and young fans with signs.
Unlike reports from a house show that claimed she was booed, she was greeted warmly by the fans once she was in the ring and welcomed us to Monday Night Raw.
She’s happy to be standing there as Raw Women’s Champion and said it feels like a dream and was interrupted by fans sheering “You deserve it.”
Nikki said she didn’t have the confidence before as she was afraid to fail. She realized that if she fails, it’s not a big deal.
Putting on her outfit gives her the confidence she needs and that if we believe in ourselves we can overcome the odds and we can all Almost be Super Heroes.
And Charlotte Flair came out and promptly told Nikki she’s talking about fairy tales and hers doesn’t have a happy ending.
She called Nikki a disgrace and mocked her about flying around doing interviews before the talk show hosts laugh at her.

Series of challengers
Flair reminded us she’s there to add star power and perspective to the ring, and called for a replay of Rhea Ripley wiping her out to chants of “You suck!”
Instead of a replay, Flair gave us a recap of Ripley acting like a spoiled teenager that had her phone taken away from her, and then complained she wasn’t on her feet to start the match and accused Nikki of stealing her title.
Flair demanded a rematch at SummerSlam, then switched gears to say it’s not Nikki’s fault but the fans and how we’re jealous of her.
Ripley then came out and mocked Flair’s statements and for holding the title for a single day and said it should be her facing Nikki at SummerSlam.
Nikki demanded to know who says they’ll be facing her, and then Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville came out and made it a Triple Threat Match.
Flair didn’t like it and demanded a match tonight against Nikki and Nikki accepted.
Afterwards, Flair attacked Ripley and sent her to the floor and Nikki hit her with a dropkick to send Flair to the floor.
United States Number One Contender Match – Sheamus vs. Damian Priest
This should be a good match if it doesn’t end in a farce.
Their initial lock up ended in a draw, and on their second one Priest sent him into the ropes and ate a shoulder block.
Priest then hit a leaping forearm and went to work on Sheamus’ left arm.

Priest’s offense focused on Sheamus’ mask, and sent him to the floor with a clothesline and a big boot, then tried a crossbody over the ropes but Sheamus caught him and dropped him on the ring apron.
Back from commercial, they’re back in the ring as Priest hit a clothesline and they exchanged blows before Priest hit a spinning heel kick that knocked Sheamus’ protective mask off.
Sheamus hit a double boot but was caught on the top rope for a chokeslam by Priest and a near pinfall.

Sheamus hit an Alabama Slam for a near pinfall, and Sheamus continued the assault as he tried to a cloverleaf, but Priest pried over his fingers and hit a series of kicks to break the hold.
After absorbing a series of heavy shots, Sheamus hit a high knee off the ropes for a near pinfall.
Priest hit a Reckoning for the win to move into a United State Championship match opportunity.
After the match, Sheamus claimed he rebroke his nose and demanded a doctor.
This was an awesome match and a great way to get the action portion of the show underway. Will Priest win the US title? Let WWE Raw Results know in the comments below.
