We are in Atlantic City, NJ. Michael Cole and Corey Graves are on commentary.

We see clips from Night of Champions.

Oba Femi comes out with the KOTR crown. Oba says the crowd's reaction is good for a ruler but he needs one for a king. He says he made Jey Uso a believer out of him and says destiny is not done with him. Oba says a choice has to be made. 

Brock Lesnar comes out with Paul Heyman. Brock introduces Oba as the KOTR. Brock says he doesn't watch the show but says it's a hell of a feat. Brock says he was KOTR a long time ago. He says Oba has a big decision to make on who to challenge and says Paul told him that Oba's good at calling him names. 

Brock says Oba called him a coward and a b!tch. Brock says you know what they say - "talk sh!t, get hit". Brock kicks him in the crotch and F-5's him. Oba gets up and asks for the mic. He says this is what Brock always does. Oba says Brock is in front of him and he's still a b!tch. He says they can play cat and mouse or fight at Summerslam. Brock says he accepts but it's Hell in a Cell.

Thoughts: That should be a fun twist. I'm interested to see how those guys do in a match like that. 

We see various wrestlers arrive.

Paul Heyman talks to Adam Pearce. He hypes up Brock vs Oba and says Adam should thank him. Austin Theory comes in. He asks what Paul was doing and says he didn't know he was here. He says Paul didn't answer his calls. Paul says now he knows he's here and walks off.

Adam goes up to Oba Femi. Adam asks if he heard Oba right. Oba says the titles will be there and he'll take it when he wants it. Oba says he wants Brock at Summerslam. Oba says it needs to happen and Adam needs to make it happen.

Iyo Sky comes out to talk. Iyo says she's grateful to come back to the US as the Queen of the Ring. She says she beat Liv this weekend and will do it again and become women's champ again.

Liv Morgan comes out. Liv says she thought Iyo was better than this and says it makes her sick how she pretends she beat her fair and square. Liv says Iyo got lucky and only beat her due to Danhausen's curse. Liv says things will be different at Summerslam as she now doesn't respect her and is p!ssed off. She says she might remind her of what happens when you get on her bad side. She brings up Finn Balor, Vaquer and Rhea as examples.

Lyra Valkyria does a video after turning heel. Lyra asks why everyone is on her back. She says it takes 2 to lose a tag title match. She says it's unfair that she let the anger get the better of her one time and everyone forgets that she has been the bigger person for a year. She says she's not proud of what happened but isn't losing sleep over it. She says she wanted to bring Bayley to the top with her. She says there's a gap between who she is and who she could be. She says she never wanted to hurt Bayley, but it felt good to close the gap a little.

Thoughts: It was a short one. Max got a lot of the offense in before losing here. Max has definitely lost favor over the last few months as she has been featured less and has lost a lot more. It was average.

Danhausen wonders who destroyed his lab in the back and sees that his Knicks gift is gone. Liv Morgan comes in and says this is what he goes. Liv says they trashed the lab. Dan asks what he did. Liv talks about his deeds. She says he needs to make this right or Judgment Day will make his life a living hell.

Danhausen comes out. He distracts Dom and Dom distracts him. JD rolls up Chad for 2. Chad ankle locks JD and submits him.

Thoughts: I would have done without the top rope spanish fly post here. Chad worked the ankle lock in the last third of this match and Danhausen helped Chad get the win here. Both guys took some tough looking bumps here. It was acceptable.

Dom and JD open a briefcase that Dan left. It explodes powder in their faces. Dan then comes and takes the Knicks jersey from Dom. Dan poses near the entrance. Raquel Rodriguez nails Dan from behind and takes the Knicks jersey back. 

Austin Theory goes up to Maxxine Dupri in the back. Austin asks about what she said to Chad. Max says it's complicated with Chad. Austin says if she wants to go back down that road, maybe this isn't working out (they had been seen for months together in the back of various segments but it was never really mentioned). Otis and Akira ask if Max is okay. She says she doesn't know and walks away.

Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu come out. Roman says to acknowledge him. Seth Rollins comes out and interrupts. Seth stares Roman down and says, "Hello, my brother". Seth says they have been tied together for 14 years. Seth says Roman has a title that belongs to him. Seth says it's time to collect. Roman says he must be confused and is in the back of the line. He says he hasn't done anything to earn a shot. 

Seth says he's always at the front of the line. Seth says Roman owes him and he owns Roman. Seth talks about their history together. Seth says Roman beat everyone for 4 years except for one person. Seth says he owned him since he chaired him. 

Seth says he's not here to ask but is here to give him something. Seth says Roman is that great. He says Roman has done a lot but has never been able to beat him. Seth says this may be Roman's last chance to fix that. Seth says they came in, knocked the door down, kicked the old gen to the curb and made this their place. Seth says they are closer to the end than the beginning. Seth says there's a new generation of wrestlers who want to do the same thing to them. Seth says it may be their last chance to do this dance. 

Seth says Roman is a hall of famer but if he doesn't accept his challenge, he will never escape the ghost of Seth Rollins. Roman says it's been a long time since he heard any truth come out of his mouth, but he's right. Roman says he doesn't want to beat him, he needs to beat him. Roman says he will do that at Summerslam. Roman says he accepts.  

Thoughts: It was a nice idea but Roman has beaten Seth multiple times before.

Overall thoughts: It was a weaker Raw with a lot of the stars not in action and the matches not going that long. They did mostly set up the big stuff at Summerslam though and now they've got a lot of time to build up to it. I thought Page vs Rey was maybe the best match on here, though the main event would be a more obvious pick for both. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it had some highs like the final segment and Brock coming out but it could have been better. The show was okay overall.
