We kick off RAW with the Bloodline. They make their entrance to the ring and Heyman welcomes us to RAW. He tells us to stand up and respect the undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns.

RK-Bro leaves and leaves Drew and Roman one on one. The two brawl before The Usos come back and jump Drew. RK-Bro joins the fray and all six brawl with each other before security comes and separates all six of them.

We get a pre-recorded segment featuring The Street Profits and Ezekiel. They offer Ezekiel a drink. Alpha Academy comes and Gable berates the 3 for drinking on the job before KEvin Owens comes and continues to be on Ezekiel’s case that he’s actually Elias. Dawkins says they’ll beat the crap out of those 3 any time. Owens takes a drink and throws it in Ezekiel’s face before leaving.

AJ Styles says Edge has a fragile ego and Edge doesn’t like him saying he had him beat at WrestleMania if not for interference from Priest. He dares Edge that if he beats Damian Priest tonight, he is banned from ringside at WrestleMania: Backlash. And if not, it will be another uphill battle.

Adam Pearce informed Sonya Deville that tonight, she doesn’t have any executive power and she’s just a performer in lieu of her abusing her powers in her match against Bianca last week. It will be her, Rhea Ripley and Becky Lynch against Asuka, Liv Morgan and Bianca Belair in a six-woman tag team match.

Veer Mahaan vs. Burt Hansen

Before the match, Burt is asked why he signed up for this match. He says Veer scares the daylights out of him, but he signed up because he wanted to compete for Monday Night RAW in his hometown. FOr years, he worked down the street at Jimmy’s BBQ dreaming of this night, and he’s making his dream come true right now. He proceeds to get squashed.

Winner: Veer Mahaan

We are back, and the crowd boos Edge. Edge stares them down, then introduces he and Priest as Judgement Day. He knows most of us cannot stand to look at ourselves in the mirror. He knows most of us don’t like Edge anymore. Maybe we despise him now. That’s because we despise ourselves. We make US physically ill. It’s a miracle that everyone here in North Carolina can pull on their shoes, wobble out their doors, and count high enough to find their seats. Truth hurts, right?

Edge says if they had a sports team, it’d be a lemming. A rodent. AJ, don’t be a lemming. Use your intelligence. This is not how he is wired. His heart outweighs his brain. Just know that by not hugging his wife and kids, he is rushing headlong into pain and judgment at Backlash. He calls the crowd peons, and that gets some heavy boos. Edge calls for the crowd to bring it, he loves this, come on! He continues his rant until he is cut off by AJ Styles’ music.

Rollins, standing under a spotlight, brags some more until fans start chanting for Cody Rhodes.

Cody turns it around and beats Rollins down. Cody with a springboard Cutter out of nowhere. Rollins flies out to the floor, stumbling around as Cody seethes in the ring.
