The Judgment Day and JD McDonagh laid waste to Cody Rhodes & Sami Zayn to close out this Monday’s episode of WWE RAW.
Rhodes faced Finn Balor in singles action in the main event of RAW. Damien Priest attempted to help Balor win the match while the referee was distracted by sliding his Money in the Bank briefcase in, but Rhodes got a hold of it and blasted Balor with it, scoring the victory.
Following the match, The Judgment Day attacked Rhodes. Zayn came down for the save, but McDonagh neutralized him and helped The Judgment Day beat down the babyfaces.

Seth Rollins will defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura, having accepted the challenge on Monday’s edition of RAW.
Nakamura hit the ring to explain his attack against Rollins that closed out last week’s show, stating that he wanted a shot at Rollins’ World Heavyweight Title.
Rollins came out and told Nakamura that all he had to do was ask. Rollins promptly accepted Nakamura’s challenge, asking the Japanese Superstar to name the date and venue.
Nakamura quickly whispered in Rollins’ ear and left the ring, only to deliver a sneak attack on the champion.
While WWE has not yet announced when the match will officially take place, it is likely to happen at the WWE Payback pay-per-view event.
