Triple H travelled there along with other WWE Performance Center staff and brought NXT wrestlers Xia Li and Big Boa with them.<\/li>\n<li>Rhyno officially parted ways with WWE last week. One day after his WWE contract expired, he was being featured in upcoming advertising for Impact Wrestling. During Impact\u2019s Slammiversary PPV over two weeks ago, a masked wrestler resembling Rhyno (potentially Rhyno himself) appeared and hit Michael Elgin with a spear. Due to Rhyno being under WWE contract at that time, it\u2019s unlikely that they will acknowledge whether it was actually Rhyno or not since it would be a breach of contract.<\/li>\n<li>WWE announced their next WWE Network Special event, a Smackdown house show taping in Nashville, Tennessee that they\u2019re calling \u201cSmackville.\u201d They are advertising a Triple Threat match for the WWE Championship featuring Kofi Kingston, Dolph Ziggler, and Samoa Joe as well as an Intercontinental Championship rematch between Shinsuke Nakamura (c) vs. Finn Balor. They are also promoting a musical performance by Elias. This appears to be a live cut-in on a house show just like The Shield special was earlier this year given the late start time advertised. The event is being held this Saturday and is scheduled for a 9:00 PM EST start time.<\/li>\n<li>Raw Reunion drew the highest rating WWE has seen in 2019, including the Post-WrestleMania episode of Raw. This week\u2019s Raw drew a 2.12 rating, the Post-WrestleMania Raw was the highest of the year before this week and that drew a 2.02 rating.<\/li>\n<li>WWE announced that the WWE Network is undergoing a major redesign that should go live this week. All network subscribers should have received an email alerting them to this change and to let them know that they will have to reenter their log in next time they visit the site. For a video preview you can watch a video WWE shared here: https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/videos\/wwe-network-just-got-better<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\u2022WWE Weekly Event Results<\/h3>\n<p><strong>WWE Live Event \u2013 Raw Roster (Reading, Pa.) 7\/19\/19<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">(1) Ricochet beat Cesaro<br \/>\n(2) Zack Ryder &amp; Curt Hawkins beat The Revival (c) via Disqualification.

The Miz came out first and plugged his reality show before introducing Rollins. Miz cut to footage of Seth winning the battle royal last week to earn a shot at Lesnar and clips of Lesnar cashing in the MITB on Seth at Extreme Rules. Seth mocked Paul Heyman\u2019s intro for Brock and even called Brock Lesnar \u201ca Seth-wanna-be (which was not explained),\u201d Heyman then came out onto the stage. Heyman fired back at Seth complaining about Lesnar cashing in the MITB on him, considering Seth did the same thing at WrestleMania 31. Seth acknowledged that and said it took Lesnar four years to get even. Seth then told Heyman that if he\u2019s going to talk the talk for Lesnar, he should walk the walk before threatening Heyman. Seth took one step towards the stage and Heyman scurried off in a cartoonish fashion. Later in the night, Seth had a match with A.J. Styles, but Seth was outnumbered as A.J. brought Anderson and Gallows with him. All three were sporting new shirts and they were calling themselves \u201cThe O.C.\u201d At one point in the match, Gallows and Anderson stepped to Seth after he was knocked to the outside in an intimidation tactic. Shawn Michaels and Triple H emerged from the stage as the DX music played and the three on three stare down happened as Raw went to commercial. After the commercial, the match continued, but ultimately Gallows and Anderson would get involved for the Disqualification. DX entered the ring to stop the attack on Seth. A.J. grabbed a mic and tried to convince DX that they were just like The OC. A brawl broke out and The New Age Outlaws\u2019 music played and Road Dogg, Sean Waltman, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall all came to the ring. The OC retreated since they were so outnumbered and Seth Rollins did the honors closing the segment out with the \u201cWe got two words for you\u201d line and everyone in the ring did the crotch chop.<\/li>\n<li>Becky Lynch was a guest on A Moment of Bliss with Alexa and Nikki Cross. Bliss couldn\u2019t even get the first question out before Natalya interrupted. Natalya said if Becky has something to say about her, she wanted her to say it to her face. Bliss threw to the video of Natalya and Becky\u2019s interaction last week. Natalya said they first met 14 years ago in Japan and Becky not showing more respect towards her blows her mind. Becky responded saying Natalya tried to cut her legs out from under her the second she showed up. She also noted that Natalya helped train Ronda Rousey to beat her at WrestleMania and reminded Natalya that she won her title from Ronda that night. Eventually a fight broke out before referees emerged to break them apart.<\/li>\n<li>Mick Foley was in the ring ready to talk about his favorite moment from his career while on Raw. First, he was interrupted by the parade of 24\/7 wrestlers and he half lunged at Drake Maverick, who was champion at the time. After they all left, he refocused and threw to a clip. Foley\u2019s memory he chose to share was him as Mankind celebrating winning the WWE Championship, but before the clip ended the screen shut off and the lights started going out section by section. All the light cut off and when they turned back on, Bray Wyatt was in the ring dressed as The Fiend and holding up his hand with \u201cHURT\u201d written on the glove. Instead of hitting Foley with a Sister Abigail, he gave him a Mandible Claw and pulled him down to the mat. Wyatt then stood back up with Foley at his feet, the lights flickered again, and just like that Wyatt was gone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Smackdown Live<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shane McMahon opened Smackdown tonight to address Kevin Owens who challenged him to a match at SummerSlam. Shane accepted the challenge and noted that Owens said he would quit if he lost. Shane then threw to a replay of Kevin Owens quitting last August (he was literally back the next week if you don\u2019t remember). Owens came out and acknowledged the video of him quitting and said that it was the lowest point of his career and it\u2019s not who he is anymore. As Shane mocked him, Owens said they don\u2019t have to wait until SummerSlam and instead of fighting Shane booked a match, Kevin Owens vs. Roman Reigns in the main event. Backstage Shane ran into Elias and Drew McIntyre when he had the idea to make Elias the special timekeeper for that match, McIntyre the special guest referee, and he would be the guest ring announcer. In the main event, the bell rang and instead of going after Kevin Owens, Roman turned and punched Drew. Owens then went after Elias who ran up onto the ring apron. Roman and Owens turned their attention to Shane, but McIntyre and Elias stopped them momentarily before Roman and Owens gained the upper hand. Shane tried escaping up the ramp, but Roman ran and grabbed him. Once Shane was back in the ring and left alone with Roman and Owens, he was hit with a Superman Punch and two Stunners from Owens to end the show.<\/li>\n<li>Kofi Kingston picked his SummerSlam opponent tonight. At the top of the second hour, Kofi came out and called out Randy Orton saying he hopes Randy accepts his challenge at SummerSlam. Orton came out and Kofi talked about their history, specifically Madison Square Garden in 2009. Kofi threw to video of him hitting Orton with a Boom Drop through a table that night. Kofi said that moment still gives him goosebumps. Kofi said that was supposed to be his launching point and move him to the next level, but that didn\u2019t happen because Orton used his influence to hold him back. Orton said he absolutely did do that because Kofi wasn\u2019t ready then and he\u2019s not ready now. He said Kofi\u2019s current reign as champion is a fluke. Orton made fun of Kofi\u2019s fake Jamaican accent, throwing pancakes, and shaking his ass. Orton said he should get the credit for Kofi even going to WrestleMania this year because he\u2019s the one that injured Ali. Orton then accepted the match and went to leave. Samoa Joe\u2019s music hit for their match, and Randy watched Joe walk past him, then decided he\u2019d stick around to watch Kofi vs. Joe. The match ended when Orton interfered in the match, hitting Kofi with an RKO. Joe walked up to Randy to say something, so he was hit with an RKO. As soon as Orton turned around from that, Kofi hit him with a Trouble in Paradise to end the segment.<\/li>\n<li>Ember Moon and Charlotte were scheduled to have a match on Smackdown. The bell rang to begin the match and Bayley\u2019s music conveniently hit immediately after the bell. Charlotte was distracted and Ember won with a roll up in under one minute. After the match Bayley tried to enter the ring and Charlotte attacked her, Ember Moon climbed to the top rope and hit Charlotte with an Eclipse. Moon then hit Bayley with an Eclipse as she was getting back to her feet. Later, Sarah Schreiber tried to interview Charlotte, who interrupted Schreiber as she was introducing her. She was furious at what happened and said she demanded a match at SummerSlam and it\u2019ll be with a better opponent than Ember Moon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\u2022WWE in the Media<\/h3>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Charlotte and Bayley were on Chasing Glory with Lillian Garcia last week.<\/strong> Both were interviewed together during a Comic Con panel Lillian hosted. They both talked about coming up in NXT together at the start of NXT. They both agree that they were so glad they came up together with Sasha and Becky as well because they all learned from each other so much, that their careers may have been so different had they not gone on the journey together.<\/p>\n<p>They both talk about their journeys to WrestleMania. Charlotte talks about not knowing if she would even be on the card after the Royal Rumble since she didn\u2019t win the Royal Rumble match. She hadn\u2019t even been approached about being Vince\u2019s handpicked choice at that time. Bayley then talks about her and Sasha going into WrestleMania as the Women\u2019s Tag Team Champions and how special it was that all four of the horsewomen were in prominent spots that night. Charlotte then says that main eventing that night wasn\u2019t even about her, it was more about making all the women in the locker room proud to be a part of it, even though they weren\u2019t in the match with them.<\/p>\n<p>Bayley then tells her story of getting into wrestling. She talks about being a big fan of Macho Man and credits him for why she wears a bunch of different and bright colors to the ring. She says when she turned 18 she went to the local wrestling school and after a couple years, she was spotted by a WWE scout who wanted to bring her in. She said she was the only female at the school for the four years she was there, apart from another woman who was there for one month before sustaining an injury. She said she also outlasted the three men she started with too. Bayley then tells the story of injuring her knee, but wanting to wrestle someone in Los Angeles. She said she went to the show even with the injury and it\u2019s a good thing she did, because that\u2019s where she was noticed by the WWE scout. After being spotted, she then had to have her official tryout with an injured knee as well.<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte then tells her story of getting into wrestling saying she didn\u2019t have a real interest when she was young going to shows with her dad. She said she didn\u2019t really identify with the divas in WWE and maybe that\u2019s why she didn\u2019t have an interest initially. She said she talked to John Laurinaitis with her brother at the Hall of Fame induction of the Four Horsemen and her and her brother decided to try it. She says she reported to NXT three months later with no idea how the business worked, but her dad was Ric Flair which helped her get in the door. She says she honestly had no idea what her father truly meant to the business until she got to NXT. She knew he was influential, but she had no idea what his impact was. Lilian asks Charlotte if wrestling was hard for Charlotte since she didn\u2019t have a background in it and she bluntly says no and laughs. She says the wrestling itself wasn\u2019t hard because she is so athletic, it\u2019s the character and performing aspects that were more challenging for her. Bayley chimes in that Charlotte went and set a personal record on her deadlift the day after she had her brutal Hell in a Cell match and that they\u2019ve taken to calling her \u201cTerminator.\u201d Charlotte says Dusty Rhodes really helped her find a character and he\u2019s the one that helped all four of them find their characters. Bayley says Dusty just encouraged them to take who they are and accentuate it. For Charlotte it was focusing on her athleticism and family history and for Bayley it was her background as a huge fan.<\/p>\n<p>Lilian then starts talking about Bayley being left behind in NXT while the other three were called up to the main roster. Bayley said that year alone in NXT was the biggest year in her career because she didn\u2019t have the other three to run to. She said she really became a leader at that time and that\u2019s also the year NXT starting travelling internationally including NXT Takeover London.<\/p>\n<p>The interview then concludes with a fan Q &amp; A session.

I\u2019m absolutely amazed fans haven\u2019t just become completely indifferent to him. Credit to him for that in all honesty! If they don\u2019t see him as a world champion, which is crazy to me, then fine, but can he please at least win a feud of some kind? It\u2019s just crazy to me. It feels like this guy loses more than the 2008 Detroit Lions (the 0-16 team, get it?)<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re going to do with Charlotte, but please, for the love of all things holy, do not put her in either of the women\u2019s title matches.<\/strong> I know she\u2019s a heel and they get handed things, but having her be put into the SummerSlam title match in the same year she was inserted into the WrestleMania main event will have people screaming that she\u2019s the female Roman Reigns so you\u2019re your head will spin. After the match this week, I was nervous, but when she gave that quick backstage interview saying she will have a match at SummerSlam and \u201cmy opponent will be better than Ember Moon\u201d I felt better and way more intrigued. Who is better than Moon on the main roster at this point that they could be alluding to? Could this be an NXT call up, Shayna Baszler, maybe? I\u2019m not sure and we have a couple of weeks, but in that 20 seconds she caught my attention!<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Roman Reigns had a good week of television in my opinion.<\/strong> On Monday, he stepped up to Samoa Joe for insulting his family. He looked really confident in going toe to toe with Samoa Joe on the microphone, which isn\u2019t easy to do. Joe is one of the best in my opinion and I thought Roman did a great job. Then on Smackdown, I thought he looked really good at the end of the show with Kevin Owens. Throughout the show, I was struggling with why Roman would accept a fight with another baby face when Shane is the one who booked the match. I was more than relieved when Roman immediately went after the heels with Owens. It was logical and in character and it\u2019s hard to complain about that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Speaking of Roman, I was disappointed with one aspect of the Roman-Joe match on Monday.<\/strong> Simply put, I was disappointed it happened! Not just because Joe lost, but they could\u2019ve teased that match and sold it as the main event of next week\u2019s Raw or Smackdown. That was my biggest complaint about the entire Raw Reunion show, they didn\u2019t take advantage of their biggest audience in 2019 to try and convince them to watch Smackdown, or Raw next week, nothing at all. Why couldn\u2019t they have done the Roman-Joe angle and have Joe be the heel and say Roman can have his match next week? SummerSlam would\u2019ve been a good place for it too, but if you don\u2019t want that on SummerSlam, why not build it up for a week? I just think they did nothing to take advantage of a bigger audience and they absolutely had to know that it would be one of their biggest audiences of the year. It\u2019s baffling to me they didn\u2019t do a single thing to try and convince the extra people to tune in next week.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NOW CHECK OUT OTHER\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/category\/prowrestlingnews\/weekly-overviews\/\">WEEKLY OVERVIEWS HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>OR JUMP TO LAST WEEK\u2019S WWE OVERVIEW: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2019\/07\/18\/weekly-overview-wwe-thru-7-17-top-stories-of-week-major-show-lineups-live-event-results-schedule-of-live-events-noteworthy-social-media-posts-more\/\">WEEKLY OVERVIEW \u2013 WWE (thru 7\/17): Top stories of week, major show lineups, live event results, schedule of live events, noteworthy social media posts, more<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2612228986\"><div id=\"pwtor-606009888\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The following is the latest in\u00a0a new series of\u00a0weekly in-depth articles\u00a0exclusive to PWTorch which will help put in perspective major wrestling promotions with a weekly overview, looking at news and roster developments, results, future line-ups, <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2019\/07\/26\/weekly-overview-wwe-thru-7-24-top-stories-of-week-major-show-lineups-live-event-results-schedule-of-live-events-noteworthy-social-media-posts-more\/\" title=\"WEEKLY OVERVIEW \u2013 WWE (thru 7\/24): Top stories of week, major show lineups, live event results, schedule of live events, noteworthy social media posts, more\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56074,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,6075,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-83765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-prowrestlingnews","category-weekly-overviews","category-news_wwe"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/post\/2018\/03\/WWE-logo-3x2_600.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83765"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83765\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":83785,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83765\/revisions\/83785"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56074"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
