These two continue to be very good together. Orton saw himself in the mirror and told Riddle to remove the wig immediately. Riddle asked Orton to close his eyes and he obliged. Orton appreciated what Riddle was doing but they needed to be ruthless and stay ten steps ahead of everyone. Orton said Riddle was even more braindead than he thought if he expected him to ride a scooter barefoot to the ring. Riddle was ready to let him ride his scooter.
#WWE RAW REPLAYS MOVIE#
Riddle said they Freaky Friday’d last week and thought it would be awesome if they remade that movie with them. Riddle approached Randy Orton, surprised that Orton wasn’t dressed like him. Lynch was the heel here, obviously, but they unintentionally made her way more sympathetic than Morgan, who was being kind of a jerk. Lynch requested a 10-woman tag match earlier tonight and Deville showed the teams they came up with. Lynch told her that the interview showed her emotion following a big win, something Morgan would know nothing about. Morgan threatened to attack her right now but Deville got in her way. Morgan said Lynch must hate what she’s become. Morgan mocked her for crying after all the times that Lynch mocked her for the same.
#WWE RAW REPLAYS SERIES#
Morgan played a clip of an emotional Lynch interview following Survivor Series where she spoke about her win and how great it felt being able to share these moments with someone she cared about (Rollins) and mentioned that they almost died in a car crash. She also made a dig at the New York Islanders for not having a win yet in their new arena. They piped in fake cheering for that announcement, which was silly because Lynch made fun of the Long Island crowd for being upset that they don’t get the match this week. Sonya Deville announced that the match would happen next week. Lynch already signed the contract and invited Morgan to do the same. Lynch wondered what Morgan would do when she finally gets the shot. Lynch warned her that one punch wasn’t going to be enough to beat her. Raw Women’s Championship contract signingīecky Lynch took credit for Liv Morgan getting her first contract signing and for firing her up last week. His excitement didn’t last long when Vince said, “If you steal from me again, I’ll kill you.” Theory was nervous initially but seemed excited to hear that. Vince invited Theory to stay in his office tonight so they can watch the show together. Vince hated that question because he knew that nobody actually wanted to hear the answer. They shook hands and Theory asked how he was doing. (Also, the slow-motion replay showed that Rollins didn’t actually get him in the eye.)Īustin Theory approached Vince McMahon in his office backstage. He beat up Rollins before the match and still lost. Unfortunately, like last week, I don’t think this did Bálor any favours. Rollins followed with a back elbow and curb stomp for the pinfall win. Bálor set up for a reverse DDT but Rollins poked him in the eye, which the ref didn’t see. Rollins avoided a Coup de Grace again and they traded strikes. Bálor followed with a foot stomp for two and Rollins responded with a slingblade and superkick for two.īálor avoided a stomp and followed with another slingblade and a shotgun dropkick. Rollins tried a frog splash but Bálor got his knees up and used a cradle for two. Rollins, who just got hit with the steel steps, told the referee to go ahead and start the match.īálor hit a flip dive and they went to break a few seconds into the match, and less than 10 minutes into the show.īálor was in control until Rollins stopped him from attempting the Coup de Grace and hit a superplex into a falcon arrow for two. Rollins fought back briefly but Bálor gave him a slingblade on the outside before hitting him with the steel steps.

Bálor clotheslined Rollins (and himself) over the barricade into the timekeeper’s area and tossed him around ringside. He did his usual entrance before charging to the ring to attack Rollins. It would be day one of the new year and day one of a new era.įinn Bálor interrupted. Rollins said people might expect him to be in a bad mood after what happened last week but he was in a great mood because he had some breaking news: he would be facing Big E for the WWE title at Day 1 in Atlanta. Seth Rollins entered to start the show as the announcers ran down tonight’s card. Liv Morgan faces Becky Lynch for the title next week. Raw’s main event ended in a DQ and Edge returned to begin a feud with The Miz.
