Quick & dirty results for August 3, 2020
Be sure to stop by later in the week for a Pops & Botches review on tonight’s show.
- United States Championship Match: Apollo Crews (c) defeated MVP
Crews scored the pin after his Toss Powerbomb. MVP demanded a rematch at Summerslam afterward. - Backstage, Sasha & Bayley aired a video package of Sasha’s title win last week. Shayna Baszler interrupted & punched Sasha in the face.
- The KO Show invited Ruby Riott for an interview. Owens had Liv Morgan come out & Ruby apologized for treating Liv poorly in the past, asking for The Riott Squad to reunite. The IIconics came down, called both losers & challenged them to a match.
- Ruby Riott & Liv Morgan defeated The IIconics
Liv pinned Billie Kay with a roll-up. - Drew McIntyre came to the ring to say Randy Orton doesn’t deserve to be here as he’s had everything handed to him in his career. Orton responded that he’s been The Chosen One in WWE, not Drew, which is why he was never fired like Drew was. McIntyre replied saying that Orton is bad for WWE & vowed to beat him at Summerslam.
- Kevin Owens challenged Randy Orton to a match next week in the back after Ric Flair tried to tell him to stop worrying about friends & worry about titles instead.
- Nia Jax came to the ring & faked an apology to Pat Buck (the WWE official she attacked last week) & challenged him to a match. Buck refused & indefinitely suspended her, so she beat him up.
- 24/7 Championship Triple Threat Match: Akira Tozawa defeated R-Truth & Shelton Benjamin (c)
Tozawa’s ninjas provided a distraction at ringside allowing Tozawa to hit a top rope senton on Truth for the win. - Backstage, Dominic Mysterio challenged Seth Rollins to a match at Summerslam.
- Sasha Banks vs Shayna Baszler ended via disqualification
Asuka attacked Bayley at ringside causing the referee to ring the bell for some reason. - Charly interviewed Asuka in the ring after & she challenged Sasha to a Raw Women’s Championship rematch at Summerslam. Shayna Baszler came back to the ring & said she’s rooting for Asuka to win so she can then beat her for the title. Sasha & Bayley came out again & Sasha said she’ll give Asuka her rematch if she can defeat Bayley next week.
- Shane McMahon is back & debuted “Raw Underground”, a competition similar to Fight Club. Guys like Erik & Dolph Ziggler fought jobbers in a ring without ropes or turnbuckles until Shane randomly shouted a winner.
- Angel Garza defeated Angelo Dawkins
Montez Ford collapsed at ringside distracting Dawkins. Garza knocked Dawkins to the ground & dropkicked him in the head for the pin. - Andrade defeated Montez Ford
Montez Ford collapsed in the ring during the match again & Andrade was declared winner by TKO. After the match, Dawkins informed Charly that Montez was poisoned after he left the trainer’s room. - Throughout the show, RAW’s lights & microphones kept glitching out & a group of masked assailants were caught on video footage throwing a molotov cocktail at a transformer outside. Nothing came of it this week.
- Seth Rollins got in Tom Phillips’ face about him cheering for Dominic’s attack on Seth last week. Samoa Joe stood up in Tom’s defense, making Rollins & Murphy retreat to the ring. As Joe threatened to get in the ring, Dominic attack both from behind with a kendo stick. Rollins retreated to the ramp & accepted Dominic’s challenge to a match at Summerslam.
- The Hurt Business showed up to Raw Underground to announce they’re taking over going forward. They beat up a bunch of jobbers as the show went off the air.
