WWE RAW Coverage: Stuck to the Mat

Terrible storytelling, the return of Jinder Mahal and a lackluster main event and a legit in-ring injury capped off the go-home show before Wrestlemania Backlash.

Matches:

Charlotte, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler vs. Asuka, Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose: Apparently Alexa Bliss made Baszler’s foot stuck to the mat and that allowed Asuka to win with a Shining Wizard.

Jeff Hardy vs. Jinder Mahal w/Veer and Shanky: Hardy was solid but got the Twist of Fate countered into The Khallas.

The New Day and R-K-Bro vs. RAW Tag Team Champions: AJ Styles and Omos and Elias and Jaxson Ryker: Orton got the win with he RKO and then, against the wishes of Riddle, cleaned house on his teammates.

Sheamus vs. Humberto Carrillo: A botch on a Sunset Flip Powerbomb ended this as Carrillo may be injured.

Cedric Alexander vs. Shelton Benjamin: Alexander was in control, but Benjamin got the win with the T-Bone. He is back.

Asuka vs. RAW Women’s Champion: Rhea Ripley: Ripley run with Riptide as Charlotte Flair was a nuisance to both throughout the encounter.

John Morrison W/The Miz vs. Damian Priest: The Archer of Infamy got the win after The Miz went too far and stopped being helpful to Morrison at ringside.

Drew McIntyre vs. WWE Champion Bobby Lashley w/MVP: Braun Strowman got involved in this war to give it a DQ finish.
