Opening Segment and Finn Balor Promo
The tension between Judgment Day was the main point of Monday Night Raw this week as Finn Balor opened WWE Raw. Balor gave a promo about the last week’s misunderstanding and called out Damien Priest. Rhea Ripley and Dom Dom came to solve the issue, but Finn Balor got angry and went backstage. Rhea Ripley gave the promo and called out the women’s division to bring some challenges for her. Seth Rollins came up with Buffalo wings to distract Dirty Dom, who challenged the Champ for a match later tonight. It was a short and to-the-point segment setting the night’s tone.

Grade B+
Analysis
Drew McIntyre and Riddle got a great win as the story of Gunther and McIntyre will move forward. There is also tension between Vinci and Gunther, which is not a good sign for either Vinci or the whole group.
Dominik Mysterio vs Rollins + Ricochet vs Paul Face to Face
Dominik Mysterio and Seth Rollins’ match never started because Dom Dom attacked Rollins before the bell. Finn Balor and Damien Priest joined Dom from the Barricade and started attacking the Champ. Zayn and Owens made the save that set the match for the main event.
Ricochet came face to face with Logan Paul and insulted Jibes at each other as well as the crowd by Logan Paul. Ricochet hit the iconic front flip in front of Paul. This was all to set up s match for the SummerSlam.
Grade C
Analysis
WWE always tried to give the edge to the heels at the start, but then baby faces take over. After a few weeks, it was great to see Judgment Day getting the front space in Monday Night Raw. Paul is a great heel and knows how to get a reaction from the crowd. Ricochet is a great competitor for Paul to get a great match, as well as an excellent babyface to work with.
Becky Lynch and Zoey Stark
Becky Lynch and Zoey Stark battled one on one with Trish Stratus by Stark’s side. Becky hit some of her trademark moves before Stark took her out with a springboard dropkick. Trish Stratus was there to distract The Man, allowing Stark to win by a roll-up.
Winner: Zoey Stark
Grade B
Analysis
Zoey Stark got a well-deserved win because she put up a strong show on the Money in the Bank. However, it is more of story development than wrestling. WWE might give another blockbuster match between Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus at WWE SummerSlam.
Alpha Academy Segment
Chad Gable and Otis arranged a ceremony to finally give the graduation certificate to Maxxine Dupri as she completed her wrestling coaching under Chad Gable. Fans chanted ‘You Deserve it’ for Dupri. The Viking Raider’s music distracted all three superstars, and they turned their attention to Irik and Ivar. In the meanwhile, Valhalla attacked Maxxine from behind.
Grade C+
Shayna Bazsler vs Emma
Emma is given the TV match against Shayna Baszler. Emma hit a few moves before Baszler took control. She stomped on her elbow and put her in Kirafuda Clutch to earn the victory. Ronda Rousey entered the arena and attacked Shayna. Rona tried t put her in the armbar, but Baszler retrieved it.
Winner: Shayna Baszler
Grade C+
Analysis
Alpha Academy and Maxxine have strong reactions from the crowd. So, WWE must push them. Baszler and Ronda’s story is going well, and WWE did not want them to fight before SummerSlam. One big brawl in the upcoming weeks is enough to build this whole feud.
Cody Rhodes Promo and Miz and Ciampa
Cody Rhodes called Brock Lesnar for the rubber match at WWE SummerSlam. After this, Tommaso Ciampa and The Miz battled in a No Disqualification Match. Ciampa took the Miz outside and hit him here and there to put some heat. Ciampa hit him with a chair to take control of the match. Ciampa and The Miz used different weapons before Bronson Reed attacked Ciampa. Reed hit him with Tsunami, and Miz covered him for 1-2-3.
Winner: The Miz
Grade B
Analysis
There was nothing new in Cody’s promo, as he has been saying these things against Brock for months now. The Miz finally got a victory after losing many matches. On the other side, Reed’s feud with Nakamura and Ricochet ends abruptly to give us Paul vs Ricochet. So, it is an excellent move to put him against Ciampa. Both superstars will get benefit from this feud.
Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green vs Kayden Carter and Katana Chance
Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez watched it from the ringside as Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green beat Katana and Chance. WWE tried to build women’s tag division in a way that is not suitable for many stars like Katana and Chance. The match ended in just two minutes when Deville and Green got the victory over Dirty Pin.
Winner: Deville and Green
Grade D
Analysis
WWE must take all the tag teams in the women’s division seriously and give them some respect. There is no tag team deserving enough to challenge for the title. It is not a good start for the NXT recruits, as they have been on the losing side for weeks now.
The Judgment Day vs Rollins, Zayn, and Owens
The triple threat match was great for showcasing the skills of all six competitors involved in it. All six superstars shined in this bout. Each performer took control for a few minutes in this match. Rhea Ripley makes her presence felt and grabs the foot of Sami to stop him from hitting the Helluva Kick. It allowed Priest to hit Chokeslam, and Balor finished him with Coup de Grace.
Winner: The Judgment Day
Grade B+
Analysis
It was a great match. All six superstars showed their class. The good thing is that Judgment Day finally won as a team. Finn Balor and Damien Priest hugged it out in the end to resolve all their issues. The Judgment Day is back with the full groove. It looked like WWE would again give us Balor and Rollins at SummerSlam. Priest and Dom can also challenge for the Undisputed Tag Team Champions. It was all from today’s episode.
