• WWE Changes RAW Star’s Name Tonight

Below are the results from tonight’s RAW so far:

– WWE Hall Of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler returned to Commentary on Monday Night RAW. He is the replacement for Corey Graves, who is on his honeymoon with Carmella.

– Cody Rhodes appeared on Miz TV. Miz took a shot at Cody and said he wouldn’t be who he is today without his father Dusty Rhodes. Miz says that if Cody wasn’t the grandson of a plumber – he’d be a real plumber.

Cody said Miz hasn’t changed in 6 years at all, but he has. Cody said he’s back to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship belt. Miz reminded Cody that it’s a Title, a belt holds up pants.

Cody then mentioned WWE wrestlers and Miz reminded him of WWE terminology again and said it’s ‘Superstars’. Cody said Miz feels threatened by him and that’s why he’s hostile right now.

Miz said he has heard Seth Rollins wants a rematch against Cody and he doesn’t think Seth will lose this time, now that he knows who his opponent is going to be. Cody said he’ll accept a rematch against Rollins.

Rhodes is looking forward to his first televised match on RAW in 6 years tonight against him. Miz then tried to attack Cody, but Cody sent Miz out of the ring.

– AJ Styles attacked Damian Priest backstage.

– Veer Mahaan def. Dominik Mysterio

Veer assaulted Dominik after the match and Dominik was taken out on a stretcher.

– AJ Styles vs. Damian Priest ended with Priest kneeling down, the purple light shined on him and he disappeared.

– Cody Rhodes def. The Miz

This was Cody’s first match on RAW in 6 years. Seth Rollins then entered the ring and made his rematch with Cody official.

– Former NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa officially joined RAW in a backstage segment. Ezekiel welcomed him. Kevin Owens interrupted and explained that he’s known him for years and his real name is actually Elias. Ciampa told Owens that’s actually Ezekiel, Elias’ younger brother. Owens got mad.

– WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Naomi def. Liv Morgan

– On The VIP Lounge, MVP said he turned on Bobby Lashley last week because Lashley stopped appreciating him and thought he no longer needed him. MVP claimed that Omos is bigger, meaner, and will take Lashley’s place on the top of the mountain. Lashley said that he already defeated Omos, but will do it again, and he will come for MVP after he’s done with Omos.

– Adam Pearce & Sonya Deville announced that next week Kevin Owens will give Ezekiel a Lie Detector Test and Finn Balor will defend his United States Title against THEORY. That’s right – Austin Theory’s name has been shortened to just THEORY.
