RAW

Monday Night RAW opens with an “In Memoriam” graphic for the passing of iconic referee, Tim White.

The RAW Women’s Champion, Bianca Belair, makes her way to the ring. Belair welcomes the crowd to RAW and says she looks forward to every opportunity she gets to defend her title, so naturally she’s excited to do so at Money In The Bank against Rhea Ripley. However Ripley will not be medically cleared to compete at Money In The Bank and their match isn’t happening… yet.

Belair says that, when Rhea is cleared to compete, she will be waiting. Until then, who will she be facing at Money In The Bank? Tonight they’re having a Fatal 5-Way to determine the number one contender: Alexa Bliss Vs. Liv Morgan Vs. Carmella Vs. Asuka Vs. Becky Lynch. Lynch comes out and interrupts Belair. She says she is the real number one contender because she never got a rematch after WrestleMania.

Lynch continues that, at Hell In A Cell, she had the match won but Belair stole it from her. She has been mistreated and made to jump through hoops but it’s fine because, after she wins tonight, it will make taking her title back that much sweeter. Asuka comes out and pretends to cry, mocking Becky. Lynch starts to bite back but out comes Liv Morgan.

Morgan says Becky shouldn’t just be worrying about Asuka, because she’s already for a fight. In fact, she’s in a great mood because she’s already in the Money In The Bank match. Something Lynch hasn’t done yet. But Liv will glady trade that spot in for a one-on-one match with Belair. Carmella is next out and she says something doesn’t make sense; she doesn’t understand why Liv is in this match at all, she’s never been a Champion.

Carmella suggest they kick Liv out and have a Fatal 4-Way. Morgan says she’s been here and if Carmella keeps talking to her like that she’ll give her some more weeks off. Carmella says Liv is only here because she rodeLiv’s coattails. Bliss is the last person out and she says Carmella is rich, seeing as she’s never once been successful on her own. Belair tells them all to shut up and get things underway.

Becky Lynch Vs. Asuka Vs. Liv Morgan Vs. Carmella Vs. Alexa Bliss

As soon as the match starts, Becky tackles Asuka and they fight out of the ring. Bliss and Morgan double-team Carmella and send her out of the ring, then high-five before locking-up. They go back-and-forth with reversals and pin attempts to no avail. They hit each other at the same time and both go down, then Carmella rushes in and tries to pin both.

Asuka returns and lands a few strikes on Carmella but Becky then drags her out of the ring. Alexa comes in knocks Carmella out, then Lynch drops her with strikes.

*Commercial Break*

Becky Lynch is backstage arguing with Adam Pearce and saying she needs to be at Money In The Bank. Pearce says Becky can still qualify if she can beat Asuka, as was originally planned. Lynch says that’s fine because she has a lot of pent-up aggression towards Asuka. Pearce says that’s great, the match can happen tonight.

Out of the blue, Mr. McMahon’s music hits and he comes out to a big pop from the crowd! McMahon says tonight is the 1517th episode of RAW, which continues to make it the longest running episodic TV show in history. RAW has been on the air for almost thirty years, and twenty of those have been dominated by one man. A man who will make his return to WWE next week, John Cena. And that’s all he says.

We see a replay of Riddle Vs. Roman Reigns from Friday Night SmackDown. Reigns won the match but was confronted by the returning Brock Lesnar after the fact. Riddle makes his way to the ring.

*Commercial Break*

Riddle says his best friend Randy Orton may have had his career ended a few weeks ago. He made a promise that he would get vengeance for both of them, and he came super close. He went toe-to-toe with the tribal chief and even hit a sick RKO. But at the end of the day, Roman hit him with a spear that almost broke him in half.

Riddle says he let the fans down but, even more so, he let his best friend down. He might be down but he’s not out. He can’t challenge Roman for the Undisputed Universal Championship but he can win Money In The Bank and cash-in on him. Riddle says there are a lot of tough opponents in the match, including Seth Rollins. He did Cody Rhodes dirty, and he wants to hit Rollins with a ladder for revenge.

MVP and Omos come out. MVP says Riddle must be hanging out with Snoop Dog, or maybe Wiz Khalifa, because those are the only guys he knows with stashes good enough that could have Riddle this delusional. Not to worry though, because Riddle will get high tonight… when Omos lifts him up, then throws him back down. Riddle says he’ll get high when his hand is raised and qualifies for Money In The Bank.

*Commercial Break*

Money In The Bank Qualifying Match

Riddle Vs. Omos W/MVP

Omos has qualified for the Money In The Bank ladder match. After the match he hits Riddle with another choke bomb. MVP and Omos leave, but out comes Seth Rollins. Rollins throws Riddle out of the ring, then gets a microphone.

The fans boo and Rollins says he doesn’t share the ring with losers. Rollins says Riddle is the ultimate loser, he’s lost his best friend, he lost the title match on Friday, and he’s lost his spot in Money In The Bank. But it hardly matters, because Riddle was never going to win the briefcase. Rollins says the whole world knows he is the only man capable of dethroning Roman Reigns.

Seth says that, since the Royal Rumble, Roman has been ducking him because he knows it. So at Money In The Bank he’s going to win the briefcase and cash-in and take the title from him. And if you think his first cash-in was impressive, just wait and see. Riddle attacks Rollins from behind but Seth kicks his ribs and hits a Stomp.

*Commercial Break*

The United States Champion, Theory, comes to the ring and we see a replay of the pose-off on last week’s RAW. Theory is standing on a podium in the ring. He syas everyone wants to know what it’s like to be a prodigy and the new face of WWE. The fans boo and he says he expects that because he knows nobody can relate to him.

Theory says last week he stood in the ring and proved Bobby Lashley can’t compare to him. Nobody can touch him. The fans boo and he mocks them. Theory that next week is the 20 year John Cena celebration but his time is up, and Theory’s time is now. He embarassed Lashley last week but he didn’t get to show the fans all of his poses.

So Theory starts oiling his body with a spotlight, then he poses and narrates it himself. The fans start cheering because Lashley comes in behind him and Theory thinks they’re loving him. Theory lifts the U.S Championship and takes a selfie but notices Lashley behind him and slowly turns around. Lashley sprays baby oil in his face, then spears him off the podium!

Theory rolls out of the ring and Lashley lifts the United States Championship. Lashley says he’s only going to say this once: the United States Championship is going to be his soon. Theory is irate at ringside and Lashley poses with the belt as the fans chant his name.

*Commercial Break*

Theory is interviewed backstage. He says Bobby Lashley doesn’t deserve a shot for the United States Championship. However, he went to Adam Pearce and suggested an idea. If Bobby Lashley wants an opportunity for the U.S Championship at Money In The Bank, he’ll have to defeat three opponents in a gauntlet match tonight!

The Undisputed Tag Team Champions, The Uso’s, come to the ring. Jey says everyone knows who they are. Jimmy says they all hold all the gold and they’re running Monday’s and Friday’s. Jey says Roman Reigns smashed Riddle, and he’s going to smash Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam.

Elias is sitting backstage playing his guitar. Ezekiel walks in and sits down opposite him on a couch. Elias says he’s been gone for a minute, doing a lot of things, but nothing beats playing for the WWE Universe. Ezekiel says that’s a surprise because he remembers him saying a lot of bad things about places like Nebraska. Elias says he needs to remember that WWE stands for Walk With Elias. He says he’s very proud of his little brother but he needs to tune his guitar before the concert.

*Commercial Break*

He wants to remind them of a universal truth, which is that WWE stands for Walk With Elias. He says in light of everything that’s going on, he wants to start with a song dedicated to his little brother.

Kevin Owens comes out and says he’s putting an end to this charade. Nobody wants this concert. Owens says Elias is a disgusting liar with no integrity. He may have the intelligent people of Nebrasksa fooled, but he’s Canadian and he’s as smart as it gets. He says that video didn’t fool him, it was movie magic. He saw a dinosaur fly a helicopter last week, anything can happen.

Ezekiel appears on the big screen and he says maybe now Owens can get it. They’re in two different places at once, so he needs to move on. Elias says he wants to sing Owens a little song. Elias gets the fans singing “KO is a liar” and Owens gets angry and takes his guitar and throws it. Elias drops Owens with a knee, then lifts the guitar and smashes it over his back!

Kevin Owens stumbles backstage. Kevin Patrick asks Owens if he’s finally convinved that Elias and Ezekiel are the same person. Owens says of course not, that video was probably pre-recorded and Elias has a fake beard glued on. Owens is challenging him to a match next week and he doesn’t care if it’s Elias, Ezekiel or their yunger brother Elron. Ezekiel walks up and says he accepts. Owens looks shocked and starts pulling his hair.

The Miz is in the ring for another edition of Miz TV. He says he wants to get to the bottom of what’s bee going on with his guest, so please welcome AJ Styles.

The Miz says AJ’s been having issues since before WrestleMania, when Edge attacked him. The numbers game kept getting the better of him, so AJ went out and recruited Finn Balor, and then he joined The Judgement Day. Last week he got beat by Seth Rollins and isn’t qualified for the Money In The Bank match this year. And earlier tonight his former partner, Omos, did. Mis is embarassed for him.

Styles asks if Miz brought him out here just to get a rise out of him. Miz says no, he brought AJ out here so the fans could see what it is to be a failure.

Miz says he’s the most decorated WWE Superstar there is, he beat John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania, he has a beautiful wife and a perfect family, and you can see them in a new episode of Miz and Mrs later tonight. So he’s not a failure like AJ.

Style says he knows things haven’t been going his way but he’s gone through ruts before, that’s how he became phenomenal.
