z. Old Raw Logo

Tonight's Raw features a Women's Championship match between Sasha Banks and Charlotte, not unlike the first Raw of the brand split, but announced this time. There is no such thing as a bad Sasha/Charlotte match, so it'll be guaranteed to impress. Meanwhile, the card for Hell in a Cell is sure to take shape, and with a diversity of feuds and tensions forming, there's no telling which matches will end up on the card, and which will see the structure.

Press F5 or refresh for more updates.

Raw begins with the standard intro and pyro, then they remind us that the Women's Championship and the Cruiserweight Championship will be on the line tonight.

Roman Reigns hits the ring. "My bloodline has been represented in WWE for a long time. But we've never had anybody win the United States Championship, until now. That's because I am the guy. I come out here and I represent my family on a nightly basis, and I do exactly what I--"

Lana hits the ring. "Roman, I've come out here to talk to you, but my husband doesn't know."

"Lana, what? Come on now, we're in LA, we're in the Staples Center. There's cameras everywhere, there's like 60 TVs back there, and you're the only woman who's given Rusev any attention in a long time. I think he knows where you at."

"That's funny. It's good to have a sense of humour when you're negotiating."

"We're negotiating now?"

"Life is a negotiation. I am out here to negotiate a challenge for the US Title."

"That doesn't sound like a challenge, that sounds like he's got you out here to do his dirty work while he hides behind your skirt."

"That man is my husband. He is family, and you know nothing about what that means. You talk about family and respect, but you have absolutely no respect. My husband will crush you in front of your country, in front of the fans, in front of your family!"

"Why don't you tell your husband to find his Bulgarian balls and get out here?"

"You shut up! That is my husband you are talking about! You go to hell!"

Rusev hits the ring and they brawl outside. They head in the ring, Reigns goes for a Superman Punch, Rusev tosses him to the corner, knees, whip, superkick, blocked by a punch. Rusev rolls out to the floor, Roman goes for a Superman Punch, Rusev reverses into a kick and tosses him into the steps, before superkicking him across the barricade. He grabs the United States Championship and walks off with it. He stops to celebrate on the stage, Reigns flanks him and hits a Superman Punch. He grabs a mic.

"If you want me to go to hell, I'm taking you both with me. And you're gonna get your rematch, but it'll be inside Hell in a Cell!"

They show a video package for TJ Perkins vs. Brian Kendrick, focusing on Kendrick's resentment of Perkins' use of his former homelessness in his persona.

Match One: Cruiserweight Champion TJ Perkins vs. Brian Kendrick (non-title)

Kendrick offers a handshake, Perkins takes it, then dropkicks Kendrick, Kendrick to the floor, Perkins feigns leaping at him, back body drop in the ring, back suplex, blocked, whip, reversed, Perkins with a springboard spinning back elbow, whip, reversed, Perkins hangs in the ropes, Kendrick charges, TJ dumps him to the floor, ducks him a few times, spinning back elbow to the floor, misses a senton in the ring, Kendrick with a big boot, wrenches his face in the ropes, traps his fingers in the metal screws of the turnbuckle, wrenches his hand, stomp, tosses Perkins to the floor, commercial.

Back on air, Perkins completes a hurricanrana, misses an avalanche, Kendrick goes up top, TJ punches him, super hurricanrana, Kendrick goes for a hurricanrana, reversed into a kick, Perkins follows up with a hurricanrana, wheelbarrow facebuster for two, kneebar, Kendrick makes it to the ropes fairly quickly, Kendrick with a boot in the corner, toss, Sliced Bread #2 for two, Captain's Hook, Perkins nearly makes it to the ropes, Kendrick rolls through, Perkins rolls him up for two, ducks a kick, drop toehold, springboard dropkick in the ropes, fireman's carry, Kendrick breaks by grabbing the eyes, rolls him into the Captain's Hook, Perkins taps.

Winner: Brian Kendrick

This was apparently not, in fact, a championship match. I should probably edit this above. I swear they said it was last week.

They show a clip from an interview earlier today between Seth Rollins and Michael Cole. Rollins reveals he's still injured and not cleared, but he's here anyway. He says Owens never beat him, points out that he (Rollins) has alienated everyone, but says that Owens gets everything handed to him while he cashed in Money in the Bank on his own. Rollins says there's no replacing Seth Rollins, and Owens is just a cog in the machine. He says that he used to be a cog himself, but now he's going to tear down the machine. He says he knows how the game is played and saw it play out at Night of Champions, but it's going to play out differently if he gets his rematch.

They show a video package for that organization I once again refuse to mention every year in October (because they are a scam).

Match Two: Braun Strowman vs. Chase Silver

In the usual pre-match interview, Silver says he just moved to Hollywood where your dreams come true, and last night he dreamt about beating Braun Strowman up. Strowman laughs through the interview.

Silver with a boot, punches, off the ropes, Strowman shoves him down, yells at the crowd, Silver clubs him from behind, Strowman responds with a boot, toss to the corner, avalanche, another, shoulder tackle, powerslam for three.

Winner: Braun Strowman

Byron: "Braun, ever since the brand extension, you've left a pile of bodies in your wake. With this domination, what's next?"

"I am the gift of destruction, and you are wasting my talents! You tell Foley that if I don't get some real competition next week, there might not be a next week."

Corey Graves brings the audience's attention to a Forbes article titled "5 Reasons Why Charlotte is Already the Greatest Female Superstar of All Time".

Bayley congratulates Sasha on making the main event tonight. Sasha says she's nervous, but this is more than just her. She says the critics are dismissing her, but she doesn't need to listen to them. Bayley says she wishes it was her, but Sasha makes a deserving candidate.

Rusev vs. Reigns is official for Hell in a Cell, inside Hell in a Cell.

Kevin Owens comes to the ring with Chris Jericho.

"You know, Chris, I just watched Seth Rollins' interview with Michael Cole, Cole you were terrible, by the way. Seth, if you were smart, you'd sit on the sidelines while those ribs that I injured, thank you very much, healed. But he's not smart. He is stupid. One might even say he's a stupid idiot. And now he's jumping the gun and asking for a rematch for my WWE Universal Championship. What has he done to earn that title shot? Because he can talk all he wants about how it all went down at Night of Champions, but at the end of the day, he lost. So if you want to see who's responsible for your loss, look right here. Because I beat Seth Rollins. Now let's get to another question everyone's been asking, why is Chris Jericho standing next to me right now?"

"It's because we're the best of friends."

"That is true, but that's not why I had you out here. One of the people Seth Rollins has been trying to blame is the referee. Where was the referee? So if Seth Rollins manages to weasel his way into another rematch for the title, we need a referee who can handle anything, and I think that referee should be you."

"That's not a terrible idea, and I do have my own referee jersey."

"I bet you look good in it."

"It costs $750 dollars. But last week, after we beat Enzo and Cass in the ring, it made me realize that we are the best tag team in the business."

"Team Kevin and Chris is the greatest."

"I was thinking we should challenge The New Day."

"For the Raw tag team titles? We are the best, but Cesaro and Sheamus already have a title shot lined up."

"They're not best friends, they're not even friends. So first we challenge New Day to a non-title match, we beat them, we get a title shot, then we make history, because we become the Raw Tag Team Champions while we're already the Universal Champion."

"I don't know, that feels like a lot of work. I'm already Universal Champion."

"It's not like I'm asking for a shot at your title."

"You're right, Team Kevin and Chris, Raw Tag Team Champions!"

The New Day comes out.

Kofi: "Well, well, well. Now I know you two weren't out here talking about friendship. Because around here, you know who has the best friendship in the WWE? The New Day, baby!"

Chris: "Oh yeah, Kofi? Questioning our friendship? You just made the list!"

Kevin: "Kofi, with an I, not a Y."

E: "No big deal. Speaking of friends (sings) How many of us have them, ones we can rely on. That's all I had. About your challenge, this requires a champion's huddle. Kevin, you can join me, but not Chris."

Chris: "You know what? You just made the list!"

Kevin: "Woods is laughing."

Chris: "Woods is laughing? You know what? You know what's going to happen?"

Woods: "No, no, no, no!"

Chris: "You just made the list!"

Woods: "That's it! Champion's huddle!"

Kevin: "You know what? Have your little huddle! But if you're not going to give us our challenge, why don't you get out of here? Because good for you, you're all friends, you won the tag titles together, you held them for 400 days together, and then, six months ago?"

Chris: "More like seven."

Kevin: "Seven months ago you all jumped the shark together!"

Woods: "You know that we do not swim! And Kevin, look at you, when's the last time you jumped over anything?"

Kevin: "Haha, that's funny. You know what? Put Woods on the list again. You're on there twice!"

Woods: "You know, we were planning on going to see The Magnificent Seven to see what made them so magnificent, or we thought barring that we'd go see Luke Cage, heard that was pretty good."

Kevin: "Enough references!"

Woods: "But about your challenge? We accept! But because we are gentlemen, you are not dressed to compete, we will give you some time. Just know that you will never become their WWE World Tag Team Champions!"

E: "Because!"

All New Day: "New! Day rocks!"

They show Cesaro and Sheamus arriving earlier today and arguing as they get out of the car. Cesaro tosses Sheamus' bag, Sheamus vows to talk to Foley about him.

Masterson steals the list and reads it off: "People who don't appreciate a good scarf, people who say I look like a poor man's Bon Jovi, Superstars who lose to Fandango at Wrestlemania." Kutcher says he has questions about JeriKO's friendship. Jericho says they should be conjoined twins, Owens says he's going to get ready. Kutcher says they'll be at ringside, then they "Quiet" Jericho. He says if they get in his business, they're going to get... it.
