WWE Raw Summary and Highlights

Roman Reigns arrived in the arena when General Manager Adam Pearce confronted him and reminded him that all of it would have been avoided if he had just let him fire Jacob Fatu last week. Reigns stated that he is going to call out Fatu; instead, Fatu’s theme hit, and he kicked off the broadcast.
Fatu called out Roman, but the Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) appeared. Jimmy still tried to reason with Fatu, while Jey swung at him, kicking off a brawl. Fatu got the upper hand when Roman arrived. The Usos and Reigns joined forces to take down Fatu, and Pearce arrived to fire Jacob, who challenged Roman to a Tribal Combat match for the title at Clash in Italy, a challenge which Roman accepted.
The first match of the show was a Street Fight where Finn Balor defeated JD McDonagh, fending off Dominik Mysterio, who interfered in the match. In a backstage interview with Cathy Kelley, Seth Rollins challenged Bron Breakker to a match in the main event.
Becky Lynch interrupted Sol Ruca’s backstage interview with Byron Saxton and advised her to leave after being 0-2 since her Raw debut. Ruca instead walked out to the ring and called out Becky, challenging Lynch to a match, which Becky declined, but accepted a fight at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Ruca vowed to snatch her soul and take the title, but Becky made it clear that the title would not be on the line for their clash.
Meanwhile, backstage, Bron Breakker asked Paul Heyman to make the match with Seth Rollins official, but Heyman revealed that Austin Theory would take on Rollins in the main event. Breakker opposed the idea, but Heyman pointed out that Breakker could run the play as he knows where Rollins will be.
In the Tornado Six-man tag team match, Los Americanos (El Grande Americano, Rayo Americano & Bravo Americano) defeated “Original” Grande Americano and Los Americanos Hermanos (Julius Creed & Brutus Creed).
Backstage, LA Knight confronted the Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso). Big Jim stated that it’s not a good time, but Knight blasted them for going back to the same old Bloodline business, when a few months ago, they were against the Vision. Knight also hinted that he will be ready to stop a potential Bloodline reunion. Michael Cole also conducted a sit-down interview with Ethan Page.
Furthermore, Brie Bella and Paige defeated the Judgement Day (Roxanne Perez & Raquel Rodriguez), despite Liv Morgan’s constant interference, to retain the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles. The Judgement Day then attacked them after the match, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria came out to aid the Champions.
In another backstage segment, LA Knight clarified that Seth Rollins shouldn’t count on his help tonight, as the enemy of his enemy is not his friend. Ahead of his title defense against Ethan Page at SNME on May 23, Penta cut a promo.
Oba Femi then made an appearance for his open challenge, when Brock Lesnar suddenly appeared and ambushed Femi. Brock landed multiple F5s before exiting the ring and signalling his return from retirement. Backstage, Paul Heyman handed a contract to GM Pearce for a rematch against Oba Femi at Clash in Italy, stating that Lesnar has already signed it, and all Pearce needs to do is get Oba’s signature.
Seth Rollins’ Vision might be murky

Backstage, Angelo Dawkins told Seth Rollins that they’re in it together. Rollins thanked him before apologizing for last week and noting that right now he has a match to focus on. In the main event, Rollins managed to outsmart Logan Paul and his antics to beat Austin Theory and bag the win.
However, after the match, Paul attacked Rollins, Angelo Dawkins of the Street Profits rushed to aid Rollins, and was soon joined by his tag partner Montez Ford. Bron Breakker then took out Montez and Dawkins singlehandedly with two back-to-back spears.
The Vision then turned its attention to Rollins, with Breakker delivering two devastating spears. They continued beating the Visionary down ringside until officials and security arrived to separate them.
