Great news for Drew, trouble for Bret Hart

Wyatt Sicks win Street Fight at WWE Raw

(1) 8-person street fight: The Wyatt Sicks (Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Nikki Cross) esp. American Made (Chad Gable, Julius Creed, Brutus Creed, Ivy Nile)

This unruly street fight lasts over 16 minutes and thrills Canadian fans with plenty of action. Among others, Nikki Cross and Ivy Nile had some tough moments – first it went over the commentator’s table, later there was a neckbreaker against Ivy on several chairs outside.

In the final phase, Chad Gable sought a direct confrontation with Uncle Howdy. Erick Rowan was there and sent Gable into the ring steps.

After the provocation, Uncle Howdy took action himself. He eliminated Gable with Sister Abigail. Dexter Lumis landed on Julius Creed with a splash from the ropes and ended the match in favor of Wyatt Sicks.

Jey Uso’s rescue comes too late

Finn Bálor made it clear in the ring: “Damian Priest cheated on Judgement Day!” Bálor should have won the world title first, but Priest was always lurking with his briefcase. Damian was called into the hall – and Finn made it clear: “I was never your sidekick!” He demanded a match at “Bad Blood”, which Priest accepted.

Finn was supported by JD McDonagh and Carlito at this point. At first Damian was able to hold his own on his own, but then ran into problems. This led to the appearance of Rhea Ripley. She came to the ring on a crutch. Liv Morgan attacked Rhea, but Ripley pushed her to the floor. Then Rhea hit Dominik Mysterio with the crutch until Liv injured herself on Ripley’s leg.

The attack continued in the ring, Priest threw himself on Ripley to protect her from further attacks. Dominik landed more hits with the crutch. When a Coup de Grace was about to take place, Jey Uso appeared. He drove away Judgement Day with a chair.

In addition to Finn Bálor and Damian Priest, this segment confirmed a title match between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan for “Bad Blood”.

Belair and Cargill remain WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions

(2) WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill defeated Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn

After losing their title in Berlin, Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn secured another chance at tag team gold last week.

In a short match there was the expected title defense, ending with the finisher of the champions against Alba Fyre.

*** Later that evening, Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane face the champions: “That was a nice win. But don’t get used to holding that title!”

For Bret Hart, Gunther is a coward!

A special moment was scheduled at this point on WWE Raw. Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett greeted Bret “Hitman” Hart. The two-time Hall of Famer made it clear that there was no one who was as proud to be a champion as he was – a Canadian champion. Bret never shied away from a challenge. That’s why he is: “The Best There Was, The Best There Is and The Best There Ever Will Be.”

That’s when Gunther came on the program. The World Heavyweight Champion said that tonight would be like a passing of the torch. Because Bret really was the best there ever was. But Gunther was the best of today and also the best of all time. And Bret would only be his second all-time favorite, after Bill Goldberg.

Sami Zayn had heard enough. The next Canadian came into the ring to make it clear that Bret was a hero to everyone here. In this context, Zayn again issued his challenge to Gunther. But the World Heavyweight Champion waved him off again this week.

As Gunther was about to leave the hall, Bret spoke up again… and called Gunther a coward. The World Heavyweight Champion was not going to take that lying down. But Sami faced him – and an exchange of blows broke out. But Zayn did not get the title match this week either…

Dominik Mysterio scores a dirty victory

(3) Dominik Mysterio defeated Dragon Lee

Judgement Day and the LWO were at ringside – and also clashed with each other.

The referee didn’t notice Liv Morgan stepping in and attacking Dragon Lee’s leg. Dom followed with the 619 and a frog splash for the win.

Natalya returns to WWE Raw

(4) Natalya, Lyra Valkyria, Zelina Vega esp. The Pure Fusion Collective (Sonya Deville, Shayna Baszler, Zoey Stark)

“What do you think will be different this time?” Sonya Deville wanted to know. They saw no chance for the other side. But then their partner appeared: Natalya!

In this match, everything was focused on the Sharpshooter, which Natalya was finally able to use on Zoey Stark. Lyra and Zelina also used submission moves on the other two opponents, so that no one could interrupt the Sharpshooter. Stark gave up!

Later, backstage, Natalya received a hug from her uncle Bret.

With “Bad Blood” comes: HELL IN A CELL!

Drew McIntyre showed good things at WWE Raw. He was convinced that his nasty move the previous week had ended CM Punk’s career. Now he could concentrate on other things, such as the World Heavyweight Championship. At the same time, his first Hollywood film came out this week. Barrett can be seen in a production with Batista.

There was only one thing that didn’t suit McIntyre. And that involved a friend of his: commentator Wade Barrett. Drew didn’t like the way Wade recently got involved in his conflict: “I’m not angry, but disappointed!” Drew confronted Wade – and it looked like trouble was brewing when Raw General Manager Adam Pearce came into the hall.

Pearce ordered Drew back into the ring. He said he had spoken to CM Punk. And contrary to McIntyre’s assumption, Punk is not finished. Pearce announced a final encounter between Drew and CM Punk for October 5th at “Bad Blood”. Then the conflict for everything will be sealed… with HELL IN A CELL!

Finn Bálor lets out his frustration

(5) Rey Mysterio defeats Finn Bálor by disqualification

This match came about after a backstage segment.

When Rey Mysterio tried a 619, he was caught by Finn Bálor. A hold was applied in the ropes. The referee counted Bálor, but he didn’t let go. A disqualification was the result!

The frustrated Finn continued: Rey was thrown against the ring post. The referee tried to hold Bálor back, but he came back and dropkicked Rey against the ring.

New #1 challenger for Bron Breakker determined!

(6) Jey Uso defeats Ilja Dragunov, Braun Strowman, Pete Dunne in a Fatal 4-Way Match for the #1 contender spot for Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker; I pin Dunne with the Uso Splash

In the run-up to the main event at WWE Raw, Bron Breakker faced his potential opponents. Pete Dunne was also surprised and harshly attacked by Sheamus in one scene.

Braun Strowman swept all of his opponents off their feet with his lap around the ring. Then he cleared the commentary table. But at that moment Bronson Reed was back! He jumped from the barrier by the timekeeper and sent Braun through the table!

Jey Uso landed a spear against Ilja Dragunov in the grand finale. But Pete Dunne was there to stop him. He threw Jey out of the ring, but failed in his attempt to score the pin against Ilja.

Dragunov prevented the bitter end. Ilja followed with a powerbomb and the H-Bomb. Jey Uso broke the cover with a superkick against Ilja. Jey immediately climbed the ropes and landed with the Uso Splash on Dunne. 1…2…3 – the decision! Yes!

At the end of this WWE Raw broadcast, Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker faced his new challenger.

Next week on WWE Raw:

• Match for the WWE Tag Team Championship: The Judgment Day (Finn Bálor & JD McDonagh) (c) vs. The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods)
• CM Punk returns
