[HOUR ONE]
-They opened with a scene of Los Angeles, Calif. and the exterior of the arena where the LA Clippers play as Michael Cole introduced teh show.
-Oba Femi made his “Goldberg-style” walk down a hallways with security flanking him. Then they went to a split screen of Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman making their journey in another hallway. Then they went full screen to Oba again and he made his entrance.
Raw G.M. Adam Pearce and Paul Levesque were in the ring with the Hell in a Cell structure surrounding them. Pearce told Oba to stand on the scale. He announced his weight at 302. Pearce then introduced Lesnar. He made his way to ringside with Heyman. he closed the door to the Hell in a Cell and locked it shot with a chain and padlock. Cole said Lesnar apparently had no interest in being in the Cell with Ova nor weighing in. Lesnar laughed at Oba and then put the key to the lock in his mouth.
Heyman said they had “a slight change of plans.” He said letting Lesnar into the HIAC isn’t a good idea. Heyman said Oba is an underdog. He said Lesnar is the Beast of the Brocktagon. He said he has never lost inside HIAC and that streak will never be broken. Oba stared down Lesnar against the cage and followed him as Lesnar walked around the perimeter of the Cell. Heyman said Lesnar weighed in at 303 (one point more than Oba). Oba shook the cage fence.
Lesnar said, “I’ll see you at Summerslam, bitch!” Oba told him, “Run away, like you always do.” Oba told Lesnar he wasn’t going to be locked in with Lesnar, but Lesnar “will be locked in with me!” Oba then attacked, unprovoked, the police officers or security guys in the Cell who were there to keep Lesnar and Oba apart. Cole said he was “taking out his frustrations on anyone in his way, and can you blame him?” He almost slammed one fake cop onto his head before giving him a Fall from Grace. Oba’s music played.
(Keller’s Analysis: That closing scene was about as stupid as it gets, especially Cole saying, “Can you blame him?” Why try to make wrestling moves look real or develop a skill for taking good bumps if the booking of storylines is going to yell in all caps at all viewers THIS IS STUPID FAKE SHIT. Obviously, there’s no world where Oba could beat up actual police officers in that situation and not end up with multiple felonies and being sent to jail awaiting trial. it’s just so arbitrary what WWE wants viewers to buy into and what they think is just a silly part of the show that’s not meant to taken seriously but is “fun to watch.” It seemed to be the crowd gave it a big eye roll, also. And what is Oba supposedly so mad about? That he didn’t get to have as peaceful formal weigh-in with Lesnar as planned? They’re booking him to be an immature, unhinged baby who throws big-boy tantrums. It’s not as cool as they think. The botched Fall from Grace wasn’t a good look, either. Everything that preceded it was good, although it’s not clear what a weigh-in is actually for.)
-A video package aired on the history between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
-The Usos, Jacob Fatu, and Reigns stepped out of a black SUV backstage. Roman smiled and patted Fatu on the shoulder. A guy, as usual, handed Reigns his title belt. He nodded and thanked him. Cole hyped the Roman-Seth face-to-face later.
-The Vision made their entrance. Bron Breakker and Austin Theory stepped out first with Maxxine Dupri rubbing her hands on Theory and wrapping them around his neck. Logan Paul followed a step behind. Cole said they want to embarrass The Alpha Academy. [c]
-Cole hyped WWE Radio on SiriusXM.
-They showed boxer Ryan Garcia at ringside, a welterweight champion for Zuffa Boxing.
(1) AUSTIN THEORY & BRON BREAKKER (w/Maxxine Dupri, Logan Paul) vs. OTIS & AKIRA TOZAWA – WWE Tag team Title match
Otis and Tozawa made their way to the ring. The bell rang 22 minutes into the hour. Theory and Otis opened the match, but Theory backed away immediately and tagged in Breakker. Theory laughed. Otis shoulder-tackled Breakker, then tagged in Tozawa. Breakker carried Tozawa to his corner and then tagged Theory. Cole noted this is the first match Otis and Tozawa have wrestled without Maxxine at ringside for them. Tozawa chased Theory around ringside. Maxxine grabbed Tozawa’s boot as he slid into the ring and then Breakker clotheslined him, which led to Theory taking over. They cut to a break at 2:00. [c]
Otis tagged in and rallied. He landed a Caterpillar on Breakker. Tozawa dove at Theory at ringside. Tozawa was set to leap off the top rope, but Logan distracted him. When Tozawa leaped, Austin recovered enough to lift his knees. Breakker then gave Tozawa his high-acceleration spear for the three count.
WINNERS: Breakker & Theory in 8:00 to retain the WWE Tag Team Titles.
-Theory and Breakker double-teamed Tozawa after the break. Otiz made the save.
