LIVE ON YOUTUBE RIGHT AFTER WWE RAW TONIGHT: LIVE ON YOUTUBE
[HOUR ONE]
-Joe Tessitore introduced the show as they showed an aerial view of Baltimore. Then they cut to excited fans from earlier outside the arena.
-A video package aired on the drama last week with Solo Sikoa, Royce Keys, LA Knight, Finn Balor, and the Usos last week on Smackdown during the Balor vs. Keys vs. Knight vs. Jey match and then Jey celebrating his win.
-Outside the arena, two SUVs arrived. The Usos got out of the silver one and Roman Reigns got out of the black one. He was handed his belt as he arrived and then told the attendant that there was something in the car. Reigns saw Jacob Fatu and said, “There he is.” He slapped his hand. Fatu joined them and followed them to the ring. Fans chanted “OTC!” He headed to the ring to his music.
(Keller’s Analysis: Although it could change as the show progresses, it’s notable that WWE commentary didn’t highlight or mention that Reigns stood next to Paul Levesque at the UFC fight event at the White House 24 hours earlier. Under normal times with a normal presidency, certainly that’s something WWE would be highlighting on Raw. And it’s not like they don’t have plenty of time to fit that in during his stroll to the ring. I suppose you have to give WWE credit for seeing that the optics are bad for them to embrace anything MAGA-related at this point wit two-thirds of the country.)
Reigns asked Baltimore to acknowledge him. He said life is good and touted Jey advancing in the King of the Ring. He asked fans to acknowledge him. He called Jey the “right-hand man.” He said people are trying to stir trouble by saying he favors Jey over Jimmy. He said without Big Jim, there wouldn’t be a right-hand man or a Tribal Chief or a Bloodline. He asked Baltimore to acknowledge him, too. Fans chanted, “Fatu! Fatu!” Reigns took notice.
Jey said he’s glad to hear that chant because he hasn’t been acknowledged yet. Reigns had a stern, irritated look. Jey said Fatu doesn’t listen and he “needs to acknowledge us.” Fans booed. Fans chanted “Fatu!” louder.
“It sounds like we have a problem,” Reigns said. He walked up to Fatu and said, “You don’t want to acknowledge them?” Fatu yanked the mic away from Reigns as “Fatu!” chants continued. He said when it comes to Jey and Jimmy, does he listen to them? “Hell naw!” he yelled. He said the only one he acknowledge is his OTC, Roman Reigns. Almost no fan reaction to that. An (irritating) chant of “Roman, Roman Reigns!” broke out with a minority of fans. The attendance brought the previously noted box to ringside. Reigns called for it. He pulled out an ula fala.
Reigns said he’s hearing rumbling that The Bloodline is going to run the business again. He said the never stopped and they always have. He noted the Samoans in the ’80s and Yokozuna in the ’90s, that was The Bloodline. He mentioned Umaga main eventing WrestleMania and the Usos becoming “the greatest tag team to ever live,” that was The Bloodline. He said when their kids are teaming together in 20 years, that is The Bloodline.
Reigns told Fatu he used to be on the outside, but now he’s on the inside. “Jacob, welcome to the family business; Jacob, welcome to The Bloodline.” Reigns put the ula fala around Fatu’s neck. Mixed crowd reaction. Tessitore said, “What a moment here in Baltimore, Corey.” Graves said there’s discord in The Bloodline, but it was a big moment.
-They cut to Tessitore and Corey Graves. Tessitore said he’s sitting in for Michael Cole who was having a well-earned night off. They cut to ringside where actor Eric Andre was smiling at ringside. He shook hands with Reigns. Jey snarled at him. Jimmy smiled and shook his hand. Andre patted him on hte back and then touched the ula fala. Fatu yanked Andre over the barricade and then into the ring. Graves said they’re going to have a lawsuit on their hands. Fans chanted, “Fatu! Fatu!” GM Adam Pearce along with producers and referees ran into the ring. Reigns also returned and called for Fatu to back off. Reigns then changed his tune and green-lighted Fatu to land a top rope splash on Andre Reigns smiled and then began to head to the back, but Reigns said, “One more time.” Tessitore said, “He is helpless!”
Reigns looked at the camera and said if you push them, that happens. Graves said it was a warning shot to the entire roster.
(Keller’s Analysis: Andre was obnoxious the way he played and almost fondled the ula fala, but the attack felt over the top and heelish and out of scale. It showed that Reigns is happy with “the monster he created” in Fatu, which is obviously a key storybeat in the ongoing dynamic within the 2026 Bloodline. I don’t think it’s at all clear how fans are going to feel, but their tendency is to strongly cheer Fatu right now and to a lesser degree cheer Reigns almost no matter what they say or do.) [c]
-Tessitore and Graves commented on a recap of the previous segment.
(1) IYO SKY vs. RAQUEL RODRIGUEZ – Queen of the Ring semi-final
The bell rang 31 minutes into the hour. Iyo went on a flurry of offense, but Raquel absorbed it all and then slammed Sky hard to the mat. Sky rolled to ringside. Raquel pursued her and dropped her over the edge of the ringside barricade.
Sky made a comeback a minute later and then dove through the ropes. Raquel caught her and threw her like a lawn dart shoulder-first into the ringpost. They cut to a break at 2:00. [c]
Sky landed a high round kick to the head and then a stomp followed by a Bullet Train meteora in the corner. She leaped off the top rope with a missile dropkick next. She did a handspring and then played to the crowd. The fans cheered. Sky then charged at Raquel, but Raquel had plenty of time to recover and then moved out of the way, making Sky look foolish for playing to the crowd for so long instead of keeping her advantage.
Raquel lifted Sky, but Sky escaped and then went for a sunset bomb over the top rope off the ring apron. Raquel held on and then stomped on Sky. Sky shoved Raquel into the announce desk and then threw her into the ring. She went for a swinging elbowdrop in the corner, but Sky moved. Fans chanted “Iyo!” almost as loud as they chanted “Fatu!” earlier. Sky landed a sunset bomb and then a top rope Overt the Moonsault for a three count.
WINNER: Sky in 10:00.
-Tessitore noted Sky will face the winner of Charlotte vs. Liv Morgan in the QOTR Final in two weeks in Saudi Arabia. Graves and Tessitore plugged Charlotte vs. Roxanne Perez, Chad Gable vs. Rusev, and Oba vs. Dom were coming up later in the show. Graves said he didn’t like Dom’s chances tonight, but at least he’s already King of the Luchadors. They commented on clips of last week’s attempt by Dom and JD McDonagh to injure Femi last week.
-They cut backstage to Liv Morgan telling Perez how sad it was that Raquel lost. Liv said they should focus on themselves now. Perez said Charlotte won’t be 100 percent on Friday. Liv said she’s goign to stepup. Liv then walked into Danhausen’s laboratory. He was happy to see her. She asked him to curse her opponent. Danhausen asked for human monies and to be in her music video. She heard enough and walked away and rolled her eyes. [c]
-A video package aired on Danhausen’s interactions with Stephen A. Smith during the NBA Finals and Danhausen’s “role” in the New York Knicks winning the NBA Championship. They also showed Reigns acknowledging the Knicks on social media.
-A vignette aired with Seth Rollins talking about bringing Bron Breakker “into my Vision.” He said he tried to give him the world, but he took his world from him. He said the moment has arrived for him to right his wrongs. He called out Breakker for a match at Night of Champions in a cage.
-They cut to Pearce chatting with Lyra Valkyria, who was excited when Pearce said he thinks he can make it happen. Valkyria said Bayley will be happy and excitedly said he is the best. LA Knight walked in and talked about the outcome of Friday’s four-way. He accused Pearce of being biased against him. He said he’s going to do things his way as a result and turned and left.
-Tessitore and Graves said the El Grande Americano mask is up for bidding and 100 percent of procedes go to a Mexican children’s health charity. They showed Penta beating Rey Mysterio last week, with Rusev and Ethan Page attacking them afterward and yanking Rey’s mask off his face followed by Gable making the save.
-Jackie Redmond interviewed Gable backstage. He said he has realized he has been wrong about a lot in recent years and he’s aiming to make amends. He said after he takes care of Rusev, Rey made him realize he has other people to make amends to. The camera followed Gable as he headed to the ring and he crossed paths with Austin Theory and Maxxine Dupri chatting with each other.
-Gable made his ring entrance. [c]
[HOUR TWO]
(2) CHAD GABLE vs. RUSEV
The end of Rusev’s ring entrance aired. The bell rang 1 minute into the hour. Ruesv battered Gable at the start. Gable made a comeback with a belly-to-belly suplex and then an ankelock. Rusev powered to the ropes and rolled to the floor. Ethan checked on Rusev. Gable went after Rusev, but Rusev threw Gable into the steps. He then suplexed him at ringside. Rusev broke the ref’s count by rolling into the ring, then went after Gable at ringside. Gable back suplexed Rusev onto the announce desk.
Ethan distracted Gable on the ring apron briefly, giving Rusev the opening to knock him to the floor. Rusev then gave Gable a fallaway slam over the announce desk. They cut to a break at 4:00. [c]
Gable knocked Rusev off the top turnbuckle and then superplexed him. Gable lowered his straps and played to the crowd. He went for an ankle lock, but Rusev blocked it and went for an Accolade. Gable blocked it and swept Rusev to the mat. He applied an anklelock. Ethan yelled at ringside and then tried to pull Rusev to the bottom rope. Ethan entered the ring. Gable let go of the anklelock and clotheslined Ethan over the top rope. Rusev then caught Gable with a Machka Kick for a dramatic two count. Fans chanted, “Gable! Gable!” Rusev then applied an Accolade mid-ring. Gable held on and then powered out of it, but Rusev yanked him back to the middle of the ring. Rusev went for a stomp, but Gable blocked it and landed an Angle Slam and then he applied the anklelock for a tapout win.
WINNER Gable in 10:00.
-When Ethan attacked Gable after the match, Rey Mysterio ran out for the save. Dragon Lee also joined them and knocked Ethan and Rusev out of the ring. Rusev threw a fit at ringside. Rey and Lee helped Gable to his feet. Tessitore said Gable was earning trust and respect.
-Reigns told an attendance that he needed to get everything in the truck and also make sure the jet is warmed up. Jimmy asked Reigns if Fatu isn’t suppose to listen to them when he isn’t around. Reigns said they can’t have in-fighting. He asked why Knight is still running around. He said maybe he should send Fatu. Jey volunteered. Jimmy said he’d talk to him.
-They showed Femi warming up backstage. [c]
-Tessitore made note of a military hero and two boxers at ringside.
-A vignette aired with Bron Breakker giving his side of the situation with Seth. He said Seth was playing victim, but Seth prayed on other people to help him achieve glory for just himself. He talked about facing Breakker in a cage at NOC. He said when you’re locked inside of a cage with a dog, “the dog always makes it out.”
-Tessitore plugged Bron vs. Seth at NOC.
-Knight made his entrance to a big pop. Knight dropped onto his back and said if anyone missed Smackdown, that’s how he ended his night. He said he had to get to Baltimore after that “and now I am home.” Fans chanted, “LA Knight!” He said he didn’t return home a king or a champion. He said it’s still his game despite not having a famous dad. He said he’s watching Reigns manipulating Fatu. He said soon he’ll have his own meme coin “to scam each and everyone of you.” He said it’s tough for him to be angry over what happened Friday, because he expected it. Jimmy’s music cut him off.
Jimmy made his way to the ring. Grace said Jimmy seems to be one of the more level-headed members of The Bloodline. Jimmy said he was just out there to talk to him. He said a lot of crap went down a few years ago, but it’s way different now. He said Solo Sikoa doesn’t run with them and he knows it. Knight said he doesn’t know anything, but he saw Solo helped Jey win. He asked if they’re not going to come looking for him if goes and finds Solo and smacks him back to factory settings. Jimmy said he is spot on and if he does get a chance to face Solo one-on-one, he has his word. “May the best man win,” he said. Jey’s music cut him off.
Jey snarled as he made his way to the ring. He paced and eyed Knight. Jey said, “Let me talk to ya.” He said what Jimmy is saying to him is right. He said they told him over and over and over again that Solo is on his own. He said he needs him to accept that. Knight took the mic and told him to stop. He asked if he wants him to accept his Tribal Chief. Jey said, “I’m better than you, LA.” He said he beat him on Friday fair and square on his own, so he wants him to acknowledge him.
Knight glared at him. He said with all the numbers he has to deal with, it’s a bit of a c0mpelling offer. “Okay, fine, I acknowledge you can kiss my ass.” They brawled as Jimmy watched. Jimmy superkicked Knight. “There goes all the diplomacy,” he said. Graves said it’s family business. Jey grabbed a chair. Jimmy held him back and told him to think it through. Jey shoved Jimmy and charged at Knight. Knight took the chair and hit both Jimmy and Jey. Fatu entered and put Knight in a Tongan Death Grip mid-ring. A “Fatu!” chant broke out with part of the crowd, but faded quickly. [c]
-A recap aired of the previous segment.
-Fatu told the Usos the way they were doing it was “ass” so he did it the OTC way.
-A vignette aired on Liv Morgan talking about her journey in NXT learning her voice and evolving. She said she “went through a multitude of characters” before she figured out “who Alexa Bliss is.”
(3) CHARLOTTE FLAIR (w/Alexa Bliss) vs. ROXANNE PEREZ (w/Liv Morgan)
As Charlotte made her entrance, they showed clips of Charlotte winning the opening round four-way match to advance in the QOTR tournament. Perez came out with Liv next. They showed a clip of Liv advancing in the QOTR last week on Raw. The bell rang 43 minutes into the hour. Perez stomped on Charlotte’s hand and they cut to a very early break. [c]
Charlotte took over and landed a sitout slam for a near fall at 5:00. Morgan shoved Bliss into the ringpost. Charlotte landed a fallaway slam and then kipped up. She kept favoring her right hand. Chalotte slapped Perez with her left hand. The announcers noted the left isn’t as effective. Charlotte landed a handspring clothesline and then a boot to the face for a two count. Charlotte climbed the ropes, but Bliss distracted her. Perez yanked Charlotte off balance and then landed a double-springboard moonsault for a near fall.
Wit the ref’s back turned, Morgan reversed a small package to give Perez an advanced leading to a two count. Perez went for Pop Rocks. Charlotte blocked it and applied a Figure-Eight for a tapout win. Tessitore noted Charlotte took damage heading into Friday’s QOTR semi-final.
WINNER: Charlotte in 10:00.
(Keller’s Analysis: Charlotte was selling a hand injury the whole match, but couldn’t resist doing a handspring clothesline that completely gave away her hand wasn’t really hurt because who, in a real fight, would put that kind of pressure on an injured limb? Skip the signature moves if they totally contradict the main story of the match. The hand injury angle strongly suggests Morgan will beat Charlotte because of that.) [c]
-Je’Von Evans made his ring entrance. Redmond interviewed him mid-ring about facing Jey on Smackdown on Friday to earn a spot in the KOTR final. Logan Paul’s music interrupted and he made walked with his right arm arm in a protective wrap. Austin Theory joined him. Logan asked the fans why they were so negative. He said he had a message for Evans. He told Evans he is a “generational talent.” He said he has untapped potential, but he sees him succeeding more as a killer without the good guy veneer. He invited him to join The Vision. “Hell naw,” Evans said.
[HOUR THREE]
Logan said it wasn’t an invitation, it was a mandate. “Je’Von Evans, you’re in The Vision,” he said. Evans told him he better back up or he will leave Baltimore with no arms. Theory leaned in and told Evans they’re not asking him anything, they’re telling him. Evans called for a ref. Theory was ready to fight as they cut to a break with a ref in the ring. [c]
(4) JE’VON EVANS vs. AUSTIN THEORY (w/Logan Paul)
The match was joined in progress after the break, five minutes into the hour. They battled back and forth for four minutes before cutting away to a break. [c]
Evans landed a springboard crossbody for a two count at 10:00. Evans played to the crowd, and then went for a second rope move. Theory recovered and knocked him off balance. Theory then landed an Ataxia for a near fall. Evans head scissored Theory through the ropes seconds later. Theory yanked him to ringside. Tessitore noted this is a physical, grueling match for Evans. Evans charged aroudn the ring and dove at Theory, but Theory side-stepped him and Evans crashed into the barricade. They sold it like Theory took the brunt of the collision, though, and Evans threw Theory back into the ring.
Evans played to the crowd and then went for a top rope move, but Breakker caught him mid-air with a spear to block the OG Cutter. The ref DQ’d Theory.
WINNER: Evans via DQ in about 12:00.
-Montez Ford made his way out to his music. Angelo Dawkins joined him. They ran to the ring and went after Breakker and Theory, clearing the ring.
(Keller’s Analysis: This grueling match serves to give Evans an excuse to perhaps lose the semi-final match. It also served as a portal to build a Theory & Breakker vs. Street Profits match.)
-Tessitore and Theory plugged the Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther match this Friday and noted it would be commercial-free (presumably the match, not the whole show).
-Fatu said he got Knight, but the twins aren’t too happy about it. Reigns said he’s not surprised because they don’t understand him. Fatu said, “Nobody’s ever understood me.” Reigns said he does, and as long as Fatu understands him, there’s no stopping them. Then he said he needed one more thing. He pulled Fatu in close and said something quietly off-mic. [c]
-Tessitore and Graves hyped Raw next week, airing at 2 ET / 11 PT next Monday live from London. It will feature Theory & Breakker vs. The Profits and Paige & Brie Bella vs. Bayley & Valkyria in tag team title matches.
(5) DOMINIK MYSTERIO (w/JD McDonagh) vs. OBA FEMI – King of the Ring semi-final
Graves said he fully expected Femi to beat the holy hell out of Dom, but he’s still a huge Dom fan. Dom wore his AAA Meta-Championship belt with him. Oba came out second a thunderous ovation. The ref called for the bell 29 minutes into the hour. Dom bailed out to ringside immediately as fans chanted for Oba. Dom covered his ears and re-entered the ring.
Oba raised his arms to offer a test of strength. Dom cowered in the corner. Graves said Dom wasn’t sacred, he was being tactical. Dom ran around ringside. Oba pursued him. Oba tossed Dom over the announce desk. Oba then turend to JD. JD leaped over the barricade into the crowd. Dom slid something into his boot, which the announcers did not notice or make note of. When JD charged at Oba, Oba knocked him out of mid-air. Dom gave Oba a low-blow and a 619. Oba went down. Dom hit a top rope frog splash for a mere one count at 4:00.
Dom swung the ring bell hammer at Oba. Oba blocked it and slammed both Dom and JD at once. Oba threw elbowed at both JD and Dom in opposite corners over and over again. Oba then lifted and tossed Dom followed by a sitout powerbomb Fall from Grace for the win.
WINNER: Femi in 5:00.
(Keller’s Analysis: They used every trick to give Dom a way to fill five minutes of TV before before getting pinned. Fun match. Great bumps by JD, of course, added to the spectacle.)
-Oba took the mic and said he is one match away and then “the Ruler will have his crown.” He said he will beat who needs to be beat. He mentioned Lesnar again. He said he thought this would be the night he would arrive. He said he used to look up to him as a man and now he questions whether he’s a man at all. He asked if he’ll duck him forever. He said he is the ruler and destroyer and the mountain he cannot climb and the Beast Slayer and a future King of the Ring. He said that’s how he’ll be remembered. He said Brock will just be “the man who ran from Oba Femi.”
(Keller’s Analysis: Oba is just so good in exuding top star confidence.)
