WWE Monday Night Raw heads to Madison Square Garden in New York City next week with two championship matches, a street fight, and Brock Lesnar’s MSG return all announced during Monday’s show in Boston.
World Tag Team Championship Street Fight: The Usos (c) vs. Logan Paul and Austin Theory
Paul Heyman requested the street fight stipulation during a backstage segment with Adam Pearce after Logan Paul and Austin Theory won by disqualification against the Usos in a non-title match on tonight’s show. The DQ finish came after LA Knight interfered and gave Jey Uso brass knuckles. A street fight eliminates the possibility of another disqualification and gives The Vision a clear path to the titles without needing a clean pinfall.
Women’s Tag Team Championship: Nia Jax and Lash Legend (c) vs. Bayley and Lyra Valkyria
Bayley and Lyra Valkyria earned their title shot by defeating the Kabuki Warriors on tonight’s Raw. After the match, Lyra told Nia Jax and Lash Legend that they know who can beat them, and Bayley challenged the champions to meet them at Madison Square Garden.
Iyo Sky vs. Raquel Rodriguez
Raquel Rodriguez challenged Iyo Sky to a match next week after confronting her backstage. Raquel called Iyo pathetic and complained about Iyo interfering to help Stephanie Vaquer. Iyo accepted and said she will interfere again if she has to.
Brock Lesnar Returns
Brock Lesnar is advertised for next week’s show. Lesnar was clotheslined over the top rope by Oba Femi during their confrontation on tonight’s Raw when he attempted an F5 that Femi escaped. The WrestleMania match between the two is official.
Other Developing Storylines
Roman Reigns closed tonight’s show by spearing CM Punk and powerbombing him through the announce table after the Usos helped set up the attack. Punk laughed from the wreckage and told Reigns he is not the one who needs help. Both men are expected to continue their build to WrestleMania.
Finn Balor returned to cost Dominik Mysterio the Intercontinental Championship, hitting JD McDonagh with the Coup de Grace after Dom fled into the crowd. Paul Heyman set up Seth Rollins with planted police officers and escalated his comments until Rollins snapped and attacked him, resulting in Rollins being handcuffed and removed by Boston PD.
