Odyssey Jones and The New Day defeat The Final Testament via pinfall.
Bronson Reed defeats The Miz via pinfall.
Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn defeat Pure Fusion Collective via pinfall.
Randy Orton defeats Ludwig Kaiser via pinfall.

Gunther attacks Orton after the match, and the two brawls until RAW goes off the air. This World Title feud is really heating up!

Hopefully, Orton didn't suffer too much damage to the knee tonight, but Ludwig spent all night targeting it. It will probably come into play in Berlin.

Kaiser counters the RKO with a schoolboy! 1-2-NO! Orton kicks out and drops Kaiser with the RKO for the win!

Randy Orton defeats Ludwig Kaiser via pinfall.

Kaiser is able to avoid the draping DDT and hangs Orton's neck up on the ropes. A step-up enziguri follows. Randy chases Kaiser up top for a superplex. Gunther is...concerned, to say the least. Fans scream for the RKO, but Randy goes for the draping DDT first.

Ludwig batters Orton throughout the break as Gunther watches on, pleased. As he goes for another running dropkick into the steps, Orton counters with a clothesline. The Viper bounces Kaiser onto the announcer's desk with one, two, three, FOUR backdrops!! Back in the ring, Orton spins Kaiser out with his patented snap power slam!

This might be the end of Orton's world title hopes...

Randy launching Kaiser like a bag of ice

Orton's knee is driven into the steel steps, and Kaiser smells blood in the water. He runs around the ring for the dropkick that has injured a handful of WWE Superstars and connects to the back of Orton's injured knee!! Orton might not make it to Bash in Berlin!

Ludwig crawls to the floor, attempting to send Gunther's challenger into the steel steps. Orton fights back with uppercuts. As he looks to drop Kaiser on the table with the backdrop, he's distracted by Gunther! The World Champion distracts him long enough for Kaiser to take out Orton's left knee. Kaiser plants Orton on the desk with Orton's patented backdrop, earning loud boos from the crowd.

Randy Orton drops Ludwig Kaiser with a big shoulder tackle. Kaiser is then taken overhead with a headlock takeover. Kaiser gets to his feet and chops Orton in the corner. It only angers the Viper, who clobbers Ludwig with a clothesline and sends him across the ring with an incredible fallaway slam!

Ahead of the main event between Randy Orton and Ludwig Kaiser, we get a rundown of RAW next week. This is when we learn of the debut match of Uncle Howdy! The leader of The Wyatt Sicks battles Chad Gable!

Michael Cole reminds us that tonight is the final night we'll see Pat McAfee for several months. He says that Pat has truly become one of his closest friends and that he's so happy about their connection and Pat's connection with the WWE Universe. Pat will begin working College GameDay on Saturdays as American College Football returns this week. Sheamus will be the first guest picker of the season.

Cole states that McAfee WILL be back in January, meaning he'll be back just in time for RAW's move to Netflix.

Backstage, Jey Uso reveals that he'll be in the Intercontinental Championship tournament that starts next week. He says Sami Zayn is home trying to get his head straight, but he told Jey that just because he can't be champion...that doesn't mean Main Event Jey can't be. So the Yeet Master has his eyes set on singles gold once again.

Sane catches PFC with a flying crossbody. She and Shayna stand up and begin trading blows while Michael Cole briefly mentions their storied rivalry in WWE. Sane moves up for the Insane Elbow but is tagged by Isla Dawn as she dives.

Baszler avoids the Insane Elbow and locks in the Kirifuda Clutch. The champions hit their backstabber-swanton bomb combination and pin Shayna for an out-of-nowhere win!

Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn defeat Pure Fusion Collective via pinfall.

Alba Fyre boots SKY and moves up top but is cut off by Kairi Sane. Damage CTRL hit a double superplex on the champ!! Luckily for her, Isla Dawn breaks it up. PFC takes over after a distraction from Sonya Deville, pelting the champs and Damage CTRL with a series of devastating strikes.

Back from the break, Zoey Stark is putting the hurt on Kairi Sane. The Pirate Princess spikes Stark with a DDT, though, giving her the chance to tag in IYO SKY. The Genius of the Sky is like a blur around the ring. She's taking out all four of her opponents by herself! A springboard dropkick takes out Pure Fusion Collective.

SKY catches both The Unholy Union and PFC with two Bullet Train Attacks!

Whatever that was supposed to be, it's effective!

Can these Real Shooters take the belts they feel BELONG to them?

The champs are walking into a TOUGH situation tonight

After a brawl, the bell rings when Kairi Sane and Shayna Baszler are in the ring. The Pirate Princess gets the better of Shayna, sending her to the floor. IYO SKY rolls in and sends her partner over the ropes as Sane lays out the Pure Fusion Collective! SKY dives onto the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions! Damage CTRL is on fire!

We've got our championship match next as The Unholy Union of Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn defend against Damage CTRL and Pure Fusion Collective in a Triple Threat Match!

Frog Splash!! Eddie Guerrero must be rolling in his grave!!

Just as she's about to slam Dom through the announcer's desk with Riptide, Rhea's cracked in the spine with a chair by Liv Morgan. Judgment Day holds Priest on the ropes so he can watch as Liv sends Rhea's shoulder into the ring post.
Judgment Day then holds Priest down on the mat as Finn Balor hits the Coup de Grace! Liv flattens Ripley with the ObLIVion before Dom hits a broken Priest with a Frog Splash! Michael Cole claims that Dom is disrespecting the late great Eddie Guerrero.

Damian Priest marches down to the ring for his match against Dirty Dom. As he gets to the ring, Judgment Day attacks. Priest sees it coming and lays them all out. Priest tries to crack Finn Balor with a chair, but JD McDonagh makes the save. Carlito saves Balor from the South of Heaven and eats a superkick for his trouble.

Dirty Dom watches on as Rhea Ripley appears behind him. It's finally time to put this man through a table!

Bron Breakker is interviewed backstage and is furious about there being a tournament to determine his next contender. He says it's not his fault that he's dominant. A lot of things aren't his fault. He's starting to sound like old Gene Snitsky. He says that whoever wins that tournament will be broken when he gives them the beating of a lifetime. That? That'll be Bron's fault.

Backstage, Sheamus is being interviewed by Jackie Redmond regarding his win over Pete Dunne tonight. He's interrupted by Ludwig Kaiser, but Sheamus stops him, asking if his injuries the last time they fought "weren't enough" for him. Sheamus tells him he's going around the corner for a pint of beer, and he can't wait to see Ludwig eat the RKO in the main event.

Ludwig looks nervous.

Braun Strowman makes the save!! This is a slobber knocker we need!!

As Reed looks for ANOTHER Tsunami, he's stopped in his tracks! Braun Strowman's music hits! The Colossus gets down on the apron and stares down the former Universal Champion. We've got a massive hoss fight on the way!

The Miz manages to catch Reed with kendo stick strikes and attempts to put him through a table with the Skull Crushing Finale. Reed counters, slamming Miz into it with a Death Valley Driver. He drags a lifeless Miz to the corner for a Tsunami!

Bronson Reed defeats The Miz via pinfall.

"NO! No I don't think this is a good idea!"

Reed sits in a chair and places his massive foot on Miz's neck as we cut to the commercial. I don't know if anything will be left of Miz when we come back.

Reed easily overpowers Miz and sends him to the floor, but Miz catches him with a chair shot. The big man knocks the chair out of Miz's hands with his bear-like paws but is sent into the post.
Miz sends a trash can, chairs, kendo sticks, and a table into the ring. Bronson eats a shot from one of the sticks and flattens the two-time Grand Slam Champion before snapping a driving Miz into the trash can with a body slam.

Bronson Reed is out next for a No DQ match with The Miz. We get a recap of his attack on R-Truth last week. Truth isn't at RAW today due to injuries sustained from the Colossal One.

The Miz is caught by RAW GM Adam Pearce backstage. He says he's not sure if this match is a good idea. Bronson doesn't care about fines, and he doesn't know if he should suspend him instead. He asks if Miz is ready to do this and The A-Lister is blunt about it.

"No! I don't know if I want to do this! You SHOULD suspend Bronson Reed and BAN the Tsunami!" Miz says, though, that he injured his friend. Miz knows that he doesn't have a lot of friends in this business, so the ones who stick with him mean the world to him. He's looking for revenge tonight.

Backstage, Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest are discussing their game plan. They know Dirty Dom's challenge is a trap, but Priest is just ready to flatten the former NXT North American Champion. Rhea Ripley knows she can't stop Priest and tells him she has his back.
