Welcome to the Summerslam 2019 fallout edition of Monday Night RAW.
We start with a recap video package of Summerslam’s main event of Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar.
Seth Rollins comes out to a huge pop, and states that he didn’t know if he had what it took to beat Brock Lesnar. He believes Brock Lesnar is everything that he says he is and more. However, he tells the crowd that they brought him to a place that he had never been before and a place that only they could go to together. Then, Seth said he remembered that he was Seth Freaking Rollins. Out comes The OC.
AJ Styles congratulates Seth on winning his match and says he doesn’t have to worry about Brock Lesnar anymore, but he does have to worry about him. AJ believes he has a lot to prove, and challenges Seth and claims he is a better champion than him. Seth said he used to have a ton of respect for AJ, but not anymore. It doesn’t matter how beat up he is, Seth says he doesn’t back down from a challenge and accepts AJ’s challenge.
A 2 out of 3 Falls match between Rey Mysterio and Andrade is announced for later tonight. Also, Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross will be defending their Tag Titles against the Kabuki Warriors. The Miz also faces Dolph Ziggler. We cut backstage to The Street Profits. They recap the segment we just saw when Sami Zayn interrupts them. Sami says the longer The Street Profits are in WWE, the longer the parasites in WWE will suck their soul out. He says Seth came in as the architect of The Shield and now he is a pandering fool. Becky Lynch first became The Man and now she’s manufactured. Angelo asks if it happens to everyone, including Samoa Joe. Sami says Joe has changed too with Joe standing backstage.
Joe says he’s giving Sami a chance to get things off his chest in the ring right now and to prove that he’s more than Kevin Owens’ water boy. Samoa Joe vs. Sami Zayn is up next. The King of the Ring tournament also returns next week on RAW.
