The results for last night’s episode of WWE Raw are in.
Last night’s WWE Raw saw Penta defeat Rey Fenix to become the new number one contender for Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship. The show opened with Royce Keys and OTM attacking The Bloodline as they arrived at the arena. Keys smashed the windshield of The Usos’ car before Bronco Nima and Lucien Price attacked Jimmy Uso. Jacob Fatu arrived and later called out Keys and OTM from ringside.
Raquel Rodriguez successfully defended the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Sol Ruca. Roxanne Perez and Liv Morgan appeared during the match, with Ruca taking out both women. Morgan later distracted the referee before Lyra Valkyria interfered, allowing Rodriguez to hit the Texana Bomb for the victory.
Intercontinental Champion Chad Gable then announced that he will defend his title on September 14. Gable called out Dragon Lee, but Ethan Page interrupted and demanded an opportunity of his own.
Gable responded by making Lee vs. Page a number one contender’s match. Page attempted to cheat by exposing the top turnbuckle, but the referee spotted it and refused to count his subsequent pin. Lee capitalised with Operation Dragon to earn an Intercontinental Championship match against Gable.
World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns later addressed the crowd and took aim at Solo Sikoa and LA Knight. Knight interrupted and called Reigns “one tremendous coward” before footage showed Sikoa down backstage. Knight went to check on him, only for Reigns to blindside him from behind.
Je’Von Evans defeated Dominik Mysterio by disqualification after JD McDonagh attacked Evans on the outside. Dominik and McDonagh continued their assault until Joe Hendry made the save, prompting Raw General Manager Adam Pearce to immediately book a tag team match. Judgment Day went on to defeat Hendry and Evans, with Dominik connecting with a Frog Splash on Hendry to secure the victory.
Stephanie Vaquer later confronted Becky Lynch backstage and questioned why Lynch had recently helped her. Lynch said her intention was to take out Judgment Day and added that she would rather eventually take the Women’s World Championship from Vaquer than Liv Morgan. Vaquer responded by telling Lynch she didn’t need her help.
In the main event, Penta faced his brother Rey Fenix in the final of the World Heavyweight Championship number one contender’s tournament. The pair exchanged several high-risk moves before Penta delivered a Penta Driver that sent Fenix through the announce desk. Both men managed to beat the referee’s count and return to the ring.
Penta eventually connected with a Mexican Destroyer to defeat Fenix and secure his World Heavyweight Championship opportunity. Penta helped his brother back to his feet afterwards before Roman Reigns made his way to the ring. Reigns held up the World Heavyweight Championship as Penta responded with his Zero Miedo gesture.
Penta will now challenge Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship in Mexico City on September 14.
