Raw is live this afternoon from the Accor Arena in Paris, France. The road to King and Queen of the Ring continues and Penta faces Rey for the Intercontinental Championship. An AAA GM wrestling for the IC title? Interesting that.
WWE Raw Report 08/06/2026
Oba Femi struts his way to the ring. Femi tries to address the crowd but the crowd is so loud he can’t. He and Paul Heyman don’t believe in many things but they do believes in spoilers NOT predictions.
“I have a little spoiler for you in Paris tonight. I will run through every man in this King of the Ring tournament, down to the last one. I will meet that last one, one-on-one, at Night of Champions. Whoever that is, this will have fought valiantly but it will be unfortunate that his journey will end there because I will destroy him as well,” vows Femi.
Femi turns his attention to Brock Lesnar saying he is a snake in the grass and underhanded. He calls Lesnar a “big, bad bitch”.
“Brock, you cannot stay away forever. When I see you, I will settle the score,” says Femi.
Mysterio! Este es el tiempo ahora, now I’m coming for ya (Yeah) Ya no pueden conmigo, that’s why I’m coming for ya.
It seems like a REALLY REALLY bad idea but…out comes Dominik.
“You don’t rule anyone. You are worrying about Brock Lesnar but you should be worried about me,” said Dom calling Femi a rookie while saying he is a 20 year veteran.
The crowd shouts Dom down. Dom jumps up on the apron to distract Femi as JD hits him with a steel chair from behind. Femi no-sells it. Femi punches the steel chair into JD’s face. As Femi grabs JD by the hair Dom hits him with a 619. Dom dives off the top rope. Femi catches him hurling him across the ring. JD pulls Dom under the ropes and out of harm’s way.
“Hey Dom, you messed up tonight. We all know that Rey Mysterio is your father but next week I will introduce you to your Daddy,” says Femi.
Jackie Redmond interviews Seth Rollins backstage. He got some measure of revenge last week against The Vision. Rollins vows to win the King of the Ring tournament and reclaim the title he never lost.
“I have a date down the line with Roman Reigns,” says Rollins. “You are holding onto a title that doesn’t belong to you.”

Chad Gable interrupts Penta getting ready for his match. Gable says he is sorry for all that he did over the last few years. He calls himself a coward. He apologizes to Penta.
“It is not easy to say you were wrong and I respect that but if you want to do right by lucha libre you know who you have to talk to,” says Penta patting him on the shoulder.
WWE announces that Sunday Night’s Main Event will take place in Atlanta on September 6th at State Farms Arena.
It is more Seth Rollins. He is hanging up his clothes in the locker room Montez Ford stops by to wish him well. The Usos and Fatu arrive. Rollins wonders if he can help them at all. They warn him not to speak badly of their family. Fatu has to slide his way into frame because he is literally cropped out. Rollins laughs at Big Jim not being in the King of the Ring tournament. He is on the sidelines where Reigns wants him to be.
“I wasn’t talking about the family. I was talking about Roman Reigns,” says Rollins. He is disappointed in the Usos in running business for Roman Reigns.
“Maybe, this is the best it will be for you, being bag boys for Roman Reigns,” says Rollins.
The Uso instruct Fatu to take out the “fool” Rollins.
Fatu stares on Rollins and walk aways.
“Family, eh?” Rollins laughs.
A frustrated Usos leave.

Sol Ruca (c) versus Lyra Valkyria – WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship Match

The Usos tear into Jacob for not taking care of Rollins. They called the play. He didn’t run it. Jacob says he doesn’t acknowledge them, he acknowledges Roman Reigns.

LA Knight heads to the ring. A stagehand is booed when he throws LA Knight a microphone but it is so off he cannot catch it. Knight stares the stagehand down from the ring.
Knight throws him the microphone back to try again. It is a good throw this time and Knight catches it fine.
Knight says that Reigns has conned everyone. His empire is crumbling. Knight knows someone is going to come down in the KOTR match on Friday to interfere.
“I don’t take orders from Roman Reigns,” he says.
He is sure that even if he gets a match with Roman for the title, the Bloodline, their friends, family and neighbor down the street will interfere as they always do.
“Guess who will put the big old stamp on it? Adam Pearce,” says Knight. “He clearly has his favourites and I am not it.”
It′s just me, uce
Day one ish
It’s just me, uce
Day one ish
Jey Uso comes down to the ring. Knight just stares him down. They run it back and that annoys Knight.
“You don’t expect me to stand here and watch this,” says Knight.
The music stops. Jey tells Knight that this is his warning shot for Friday night.
Knight demands the music be cut. The crowd boos him. He respects that Jey is passionate and defensive about his family. He wishes him good luck on Friday night.
“From top to bottom though, screw your family!” laughs Knight.
Jey takes off his shirt and heads back to the ring. Knight takes off his jacket. Jimmy comes out and convinces Jey to head to the back.
Chad Gable is backstage. He approaches Mysterio and Dragon Lee. Lee says they are all good. He accepts the apology.
“You have to stop beating yourself up, man. A year ago when you started this whole fiasco your mission was to make fun of and disrespect lucha libre. Yes, at one point I wanted to knock your stupid head off your shoulders but after watching the mask versus mask match? That was true lucha libre. I felt that. Consider your apology accepted,” says Mysterio.
Mysterio says Gable should look back even further and address some things he might now regret. I assume he is speaking about Alpha Academy.
