We start with the Raw results, winners, and grades.
Will The Judgement Day add more members to their already formidable faction? It will be interesting to see what direction Alexa Bliss’ story takes, now that she has made her much-awaited comeback to WWE television.
MVP and Omos made their way to the ring. The former took a microphone and welcomed the fans to Monday Night Raw. He said on one side there is Bobby Lashley who wanted to hog the spotlight all by himself and on the other side there is the Nigerian giant Omos.
MVP expects Lashley to put up a good fight because that is the kind of person he is. However, Omos will annihilate the former WWE Champion inside the steel cage. He ended by saying the WWE Universe is lucky to live in the era of Omos. As Lashley was making his way to the ring, Cedric Alexander attacked him from behind.
Omos and MVP joined in to make it a three-on-one brawl. However, the referees and officials came out and separated the 4 men. Lashley entered the cage and called out Omos as he was not ready to waste any further time getting his hands on the Colossus.
Omos versus Bobby Lashley – Steel Cage Match
As the match started, Omos used his power and kneed Lashley on the head. As Lashley was taking a breather against the steel cage, MVP hit the Almighty with his cand much like how he helped Omos at WrestleMania Backlash. Lashley locked in the Sleeper hold but Omos powered out. MVP once again hit Lashley with the cane from outside the ring. Omos took advantage as he delivered Snake Eyes.
MVP got up on the stairs and slapped Lashley but the latter grabbed hold of his hand and pulled him against the steel cage to take him out. Lashley hit a spear for a near fall.
The veteran tried to get the Hurt Lock in but could not do so. Lashley went up on the top rope and was about to exit the ring when Alexander climbed the cage from the outside to intercept him. However, Alexander was tossed inside the ring from the top of the cage.
You want in, @CedricAlexander? YOU GOT IT!

Omos caught hold of Lashley and tossed him into the wall of the steel cage. Omos nailed a big boot and dropped Lashley once again into the steel cage but the cage wall broke. Lashley gathered himself to step out of the ring to win the match as MVP and Omos were furious.
Winner – Bobby Lashley
Grade – B
Overall show grade – B
Theory versus Mustafa Ali
Ali was about to fight Theory but the heel wanted to call someone who he could trust, to call the match. He called out The Miz as the special guest referee.
As the match was about to start, Theory said something did not feel right. He wanted to teach Ali the first lesson the United States Champion learned from his idol Vince McMahon and that is to “expect the unexpected”. Theory said Ali’s match will be against Veer Mahaan.
Veer Mahaan versus Mustafa Ali
Ali delivered a dropkick to start the match on a positive note. However, Veer was all over since that moment. Ali tried to build some momentum but Theory tripped him from the outside. Ali sidestepped Mahaan to send the heel outside the ring. As he was about to nail a high-flying move, The Miz got in his way. Miz and Ali got involved in a war of words before the A-lister hit him with a punch.
As Ali was about to retaliate, Mahaan knocked him out with a Million dollar arm. He followed it up with a Cervical Clutch to make Ali tap out. Theory entered the ring and asked Mahaan to lock in the Cervical Clutch once again so that he could take a selfie.
He got his wish. Miz and Theory ordered Mahaan to clear the announce table so that they could drop Ali but the returning Mysterios came to the aid of the former Retribution leader. Rey and Dominik took out Mahaan outside the ring to end the segment.
Winner – Veer Mahaan
Grade – D
