Below are the complete results from tonight’s RAW:
– Cody Rhodes kicked off tonight’s RAW after WWE SummerSlam 2023. Since tonight’s RAW is in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Rhodes talked about Brock Lesnar.
Rhodes said his mother told him that Brock ‘acknowledged’ you on Saturday night. Cody said he’s feeling at the top of the World and feels he can beat anybody. This led to World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins coming out.
Rollins said Rhodes confronted him last time when he came out to look for challengers for his World Heavyweight Title. Seth said Cody feels he can beat anybody, let’s put that feeling to test.
This led to Judgment Day’s Mr. Money In The Bank Damian Priest, Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley and NXT North American Champion Dominik Mysterio coming out.
Priest said Dirty Dom isn’t done with Cody. He said Cody isn’t the workhorse of WWE, Dom is, as Dom is going to defend his Title tomorrow night on NXT.
Dominik began speaking and the crowd booed big time. Seth laughed at that and Finn Balor attacked Rollins from behind. A brawl broke out, which led to Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champion Sami Zayn coming out to even the odds for the babyfaces.
The babyfaces cleared the ring. Cody then proposed a 6-man tag team match for later tonight. Rollins wasn’t with Cody pitching this match and both men argued, while Sami tried to calm them.
– Chad Gable def. Matt Riddle, Tommaso Ciampa and Ricochet in a Fatal 4-Way Match to become the #1 Contender for the Intercontinental Championship
The crowd cheered big time for their hometown hero. Gable celebrated with his son after the match. Intercontinental Champion Gunther was watching backstage and didn’t look impressed.
– Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins put their issues aside in a backstage segment with Sami Zayn.
– LA Knight was shown in a photoshoot backstage and The Miz wasn’t happy about this as he was told to wait, which he doesn’t do.
– Shinsuke Nakamura def. Bronson Reed
– Imperium’s Ludwig Kaiser flirted with Maxxine Dupri backstage and bad mouthed Otis & Chad Gable. Maxxine slapped him and Otis challenged him to a match after this.
– Becky Lynch called Zoey Stark stupid for not realizing that Trish Stratus is taking her in the wrong direction.
Zoey said Becky is wrong and that she’s the hottest rising star in WWE today and the baddest woman. Shayna Baszler then came out. Shayna said she beat Ronda Rousey and drove her out of WWE.
Shayna asked Zoey who’s the baddest woman now. Zoey said Shayna looks like a punching bag. This led to singles match.
– Finn Balor & Damian Priest got into an argument backstage.
– Shayna Baszler def. Zoey Stark with Ronda Rousey’s move
– JD McDonagh attacked Sami Zayn backstage. Shinsuke Nakamura will replace Sami in the main event now.

– The Miz declared that LA Knight is the flavor of the month that the fans will love for 5 months and then get tired of. Miz also said that LA is an Attitude Era fanboy playing cosplay in his ring.
LA said that he’s been making himself a dangerous man while WWE has been betting on the wrong horses with Miz being one of them because he’s safe. LA said he’s not be messed with and that’s the difference between him and Miz.
Miz attacked LA and was about to hit the Skull Crushing Finale, but LA countered and hit his finishing move – Blunt Force Trauma.
