A huge bevy of maid-card matches and more card development for Money in the Bank made sure RAW meant something this week, but it was far from exciting.
Matches:
Ricochet vs. John Morrison w/The Miz: These two are developing quite a rivalry. After Ricochet stole the show with a wild spot last week, Johnny Drip Drip responded with a Powerbomb on the barricade. The Miz ended up getting involved just enough to give Morrison the win via Count-out.
Asuka, Naomi, Nikki Cross, Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax, Shayna Baszler, Piper Niven and Eva Marie w/Reginald: Everyone else did the heavy lifting, but Eva Marie announced herself the winner again.
Mustafa Ali vs. Mansoor: Ali stole the win after pretending he was hurt.
Drew McIntyre vs. Jinder Mahal w/Shanky and Veer: Shanky and Veer got involved to get the match thrown out. After the bell, Mahal and company beat on McIntyre and stole his sword.
Mace and T-Bar vs. Lince Dorado and Gran Metalik: Dorado stole the match with a Rollup.
Riddle vs. WWE RAW Tag Team Champion AJ Styles w/Omos: These two have a ton of chemistry and Omos played a role. Interference from The Viking Raiders allowed Riddle to win with a Rollup.
R-Truth and Jaxson Ryker vs. Elias and Cedric Alexander: R-Truth left the match to chase the 24/7 Champion Akira Tozawa and Elias left the match, leaving Alexander alone, who got pinned after The Bossman Slam from Ryker.
The New Day: Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods vs. WWE Champion Bobby Lashley and MVP: Kingston and Woods were able to isolate MVP and get the win with Trouble in Paradise.
