In the ring, CM Punk said I want to congratulate Cody Rhodes on winning the Royal Rumble because he earned it. I hope he goes to WrestleMania and finishes the story. I tore my right tricep in the Rumble. WrestleMania 40 is not in the cards, but there is always next year. Drew McIntyre came to the ring. McIntyre said I’m listening to you and I can relate to everything you are saying. My dreams were taken away from me before. I’m not a spiritual person, but I prayed for this and it happened. I targeted you. I violently assaulted you because I could not let you win the Rumble. Our champion went down. He’s taken the title as far as he could until his body broke and he’s done a great job. Who’s going to take it to the next level? I couldn’t let it be you. You eliminated me. I couldn’t sleep that night and I was so angry with myself. Then I heard the news the next day and I slept like a baby last night. You won the battle, but you didn’t win the war. Mission accomplished. I exorcised the demon, CM Punk. Now I’m going to find a way into the world title match and I’m going to live CM Punk’s dream again. Punk said I’m going to rehab my tricep and when I come back, I will headline WrestleMania, but the first thing on my list is you. I’m coming for you. McIntyre went to punch Punk, but Punk ducked and forearmed McIntyre. McIntyre kicked Punk to the ground and stomped on his arm. Sami Zayn came out and brawled with McIntyre.
Backstage, Rhea Ripley said it doesn’t really matter what Drew does. We have bigger things to worry about. Ripley said we need to send a message to remind people who we are and send a message that wasn’t sent at the Royal Rumble. Damian Priest said we can agree we are done with distractions.
Backstage, DIY said this is the moment we show the world who we are.
Undisputed Tag Team Championship Match:
The Judgment Day (Damian Priest & Finn Balor) vs DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa)
Priest gave Gargano a Flatliner on the announce table. Ciampa rolled up Priest for a near fall. Priest gave Ciampa the Razor’s Edge, Balor came off the top rope on him with a Coupe De Grace and pinned him.
Winners: The Judgment Day
After the match, Priest said I feel like I need to apologize to R-Truth and invited him into the ring. Truth came down the aisle, but was reluctant to get into the ring. Priest said, I give you my word that I won’t attack you and you can say what you’ve been wanting to say. Truth said I’m glad you’re going to let me say it because it never works when you say it. Can we all rise for The Judgment Day. Priest said The Judgment Day is family, but you’re not part of Judgment Day. You never were, but I like you and I think you’re very funny. That’s why I’m not going to be the one to do this. JD McDonagh attacked Truth from behind. The Miz came down to help Truth, but got jumped by The Judgement Day.
Zoey Stark & Shayna Baszler vs Chelsea Green & Piper Niven
Green hit Stark with a neck drop for a near fall. Green went for the tag, but Baszler pulled Niven off the ring apron. Stark hit Green with a Z-360 and pinned her.
===Winners: Zoey Stark & Shayna Baszler
In the ring, Cody Rhodes said let’s make WrestleMania official. Seth Rollins came out. Rollins said we haven’t always seen eye to eye, but I think over the last year I think we’ve developed a mutual respect for each other. Congratulations on back to back Royal Rumble wins. They shook hands. Rollins said I’m going to be real with you. If you choose to fight Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, you’re making a mistake. I think you should fight me instead. You said at the WrestleMania press conference that you’re the guy. You’re not the guy. Roman Reigns is not even the guy anymore. I’m the guy and the World Heavyweight Championship is the title in WWE. Last year when you won the Rumble, you went after Roman, but that was when there was only one champion. The landscape has changed. I know for the last year, you’ve only thought about Roman, but for the last year, you’ve been with me on this ride. We’ve been together on the road for the last year, and who was in the main event? Which title was defended? Do you remember why this title came to be? It was because everybody was tired of Roman never defending the title and then cheating every single time he had an opportunity to be an honorable man. This title is our title and we’ve built this title. We don’t need to pretend Roman is on some untouchable pedestal. We don’t need Roman at all. So do you want the Hulk Hogan title who politick their way to the top or do you want the Dusty Rhodes titles. Do you want the workhorse championship, the blue collar championship, because that’s what the World Heavyweight Championship means. It’s about the very best in between these ropes. I don’t need an answer right now. What I want is for you to think about this because it’s the biggest decision you will ever make in your entire life and what I want to know is what’s in here (he puts his finger on Cody’s heart). What kind of man do you want to be? Cody said I have an insane amount of respect for you and I’ll think about it.
Backstage, Kofi Kingston said he’s going to beat Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship tonight.
Jey Uso vs Bronson Reed
Jey moved out of the way of Reed’s Tsunami Splash. Jey superkicked Reed and speared him. Jey gave Reed an Uso splash and pinned him.
===Winner: Jey Uso
Backstage, Andrade signed a RAW contract and handed it to Adam Pearce. Nick Aldis came in. Aldis congratulated Andrade, shook his hand, and said SmackDown had a lucrative contract for you also. Andrade left. Aldis told Pearce that I lent you Bayley for tonight’s show so you have both Royal Rumble winners for this special RAW and I guess it’s like that. Pearce said it’s just business. Aldis said speaking of business, we have to discuss the Elimination Chamber. Aldis phone rang and he said it was Bron Breakker.
Backstage, Gunther said nobody will care about Kofi Kingston after he beats him tonight.
Backstage, Becky Lynch said I won’t stop until I regain the title.
Intercontinental Championship Match
Gunther (champion) vs Kofi Kingston
Kingston hit Gunther with the SOS for a near fall. Gunther clotheslined Kofi and gave him a dropkick. Gunther gave Kofi a powerbomb and pinned him. Xavier Woods was checking on Kofi after the match when Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci attacked them.
===Winner: Gunther
Backstage, Sami Zayn said he’s going to defeat Drew McIntyre tonight.
The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka & Kairi Sane) vs Tegan Nox & Natalya)
Natalya told Nox to tag her, but she went after Sane. Sane dumped Nox face first on the ring apron. Sane gave Natalya the Insane Elbow and pinned her.
===Winners: The Kabuki Warriors
Backstage, Kayden Carter and Katana Chance said they talked to Adam Pearce and they will get a tag team title rematch against The Kabuki Warriors next week on RAW
In the ring, Bayley said she beat Rhea Ripley’s record by being in the Royal Rumble for 63 minutes and 3 seconds. Rhea Ripley told Bayley you only won the Rumble because I wasn’t in it. Nia Jax attacked Ripley from behind. Ripley threw Jax in the ring. They continued to brawl as Damage CTRL watched. Jax gave Ripley three leg drops and an Annihilator. Jax turned to Damage CTRL. They all went outside the ring except Bayley. Jax cornered Bayley and said you can choose Ripley, but she won’t make it to WrestleMania. Bayley looked nervous and said if you let me finish, I was going to say I’m going to make my announcement on SmackDown. IYO SKY looked at Bayley with a confused look on her face.
Backstage, Drew McIntyre said Sami Zayn has never beaten me and that’s not going to change tonight.
Drew McIntyre vs Sami Zayn
Zayn went for the Helluva Kick but McIntyre dropped to his knees to cover up and inadvertently gave him a low blow. McIntyre hit Zayn with a Claymore Kick and pinned him.
