• Elias Debuts New Character & Name On Tonight’s RAW
Below are the results from tonight’s RAW after WrestleMania 38 so far:
– Cody Rhodes kicked off RAW. He said everyone thinks his decision to return to WWE was difficult – it was not.
He said any doubt regarding his level was cleared when he defeated former WWE Champion Seth Rollins on Saturday.
He then talked about his father Dusty Rhodes and got emotional. He said Dusty was his hero and showed a 1977 photo of Dusty from MSG posing with the WWF Championship.
However, Dusty didn’t win the Title on that night because it was a count-out win. Cody got really emotional after this.

Cody said this is his goal – to get that Title. While he can’t put that Title in The American Dream’s hands physically, he can put it in the hands on The American Nightmare.
Seth Rollins then interrupted him. Cody put his hand forward and Rollins shook it and left. Cody is left confused that Seth actually agreed and showed him respect.

– Sasha Banks & Naomi def. Liv Morgan & Rhea Ripley (Ripley left Liv in the ring after the match)
– Kevin Owens came out and made excuses for his loss to Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 38. Owens said Austin is still great, because you need to be great to defeat the greatest WWE Superstar of all time – him.
Owens said he hurt his back in the gym while lifting very heavy weights before WrestleMania.
Elias then returned to WWE programming with a completely new look and a new name – Ezekiel.

Owens asked “Is that you, Elias?” Elias said no, he is Elias’ younger brother Ezekiel. Owens didn’t believe him and said he hates liars. Elias said then Owens must hate himself too.
Kevin then threatened to lay out Ezekiel at the count of 10, but then left the ring without doing anything.
