August 4, 2025 | Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY
WWE Monday Night RAW returned to New York City, broadcast live from the Barclays Center on Netflix.
The results are as follows:
Rusev vs. Sheamus
In a hard-hitting battle between two of WWE’s most physically dominant heavyweights, Rusev and Sheamus went to war in the opening contest. Neither man gave an inch, delivering bruising strikes and power moves that brought the Brooklyn crowd to its feet. However, after nearly ten minutes of carnage, the fight spilled to the outside and both competitors were counted out at 9:52, resulting in a double count-out. The brawl didn’t stop there, as security had to separate the two enraged brawlers.
Penta vs Grayson Waller
Penta, one of RAW’s newest and most enigmatic additions, took on the cocky and confident Grayson Waller in singles action. Waller attempted to use his mind games and athleticism to slow the momentum of the lucha star, but Penta’s precision strikes and lucha-libre prowess proved too much. After a blistering sequence of offense, Penta secured the win at 8:19 with a fearsome Fear Factor.
WWE Women’s Tag Championship | Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair (c) vs Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez
The Women’s Tag Team Championships were on the line as Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair defended against The Judgment Day’s Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez. The challengers pushed the champions to their limit, with Raquel’s raw power and Roxanne’s speed nearly scoring an upset multiple times. However, the experience and ruthlessness of Flair and Bliss ultimately prevailed. A combination of a Twisted Bliss and Natural Selection ended things at 13:51, allowing the champs to retain their titles in a thrilling contest.
Dominik Mysterio vs Dragon Lee
Dominik Mysterio, riding high on his recent solo run, picked up another win, this time over Dragon Lee. The fast-paced match saw both men trade high-flying offense, but Dominik—perhaps with some invisible help from Judgment Day allies—secured the victory at 8:12 with a well-timed Frog Splash.
WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match | Seth Rollins (c) vs LA Knight
In the night’s main event, Seth Rollins, accompanied by Paul Heyman, defended the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight. What began as a highly competitive and evenly matched bout turned chaotic when LA Knight, seemingly on the verge of victory, was disqualified after shoving the referee during a heated exchange with Rollins.
The official called for the bell at 13:55, awarding the win to Rollins via disqualification, allowing him to retain the title. The finish left the crowd furious and LA Knight livid, signaling that this rivalry is far from over. Heyman, meanwhile, looked quite pleased with the outcome—suggesting his influence may have played a role in tonight’s controversial ending.
