Monday Night Raw held a Live Event at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas this Friday Night, which featured an explosive appearance from the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar to remind everyone why is known as the most destructive force in sports entertainment history.
Thanks to inquisitr, below are the results from the latest WWE Live Event featuring stars such as Roman Reigns, Samoa Joe, Bayley and of course, Brock Lesnar:
#1. Enzo Amore and Big Cass vs. Rusev and Jinder Mahal
A decent start to the event with Amore and Cass milking the insane reactions they get from the fans. Rusev too was great at pandering to the crowd. As expected, the babyface team of Enzo and Cass came out on top.
Result: Enzo Amore and Big Cass def. Rusev and Jinder Mahal
#2. Neville (C) vs. Rich Swann (WWE Cruiserweight Championship Match)
Neville put the title on the line against Rich Swann in a fast-paced bout. There wasn’t much of a reaction, but still was a decent way to showcase the Cruiserweight talents.
Result: Neville def. Rich Swann to retain the title
#3. Goldust, R-Truth, Sin Cara and Curtis Axel vs. Bo Dallas, Titus O'Neil and The Shining Stars (Brock Lesnar interferes and wrecks havoc)
Just before the interval break, we had a match featuring 8 of Raw's lower mid card talents colliding in an 8-man tag team match. Although for all the participants of the bout, the night didn't end quite well as it was interrupted by none other than Brock Lesnar.
Lesnar came out in the middle of the match and transformed the place into Suplex City by delivering a suplex to basically everyone he got his hands on. After Brock cleared the ring, his advocate Paul Heyman called out the Big Show for a match.
Results: No contest
#4. Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show
This match was originally advertised as the main event but fans got to witness it a bit earlier after Lesnar interrupted the tag team match no one seemed to care about. In the end, Lesnar gave us a glimpse of why he is one of the most feared wrestlers in the world despite the loss to Goldberg, by defeating the World’s Largest Athlete with a devasting F5.
Result: Brock Lesnar def. Big Show
#5. Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson (C) vs. The New Day vs. Cesaro and Sheamus
This was a really fun match because of all the talents involved in it. Each team has proven that they have great chemistry with each other and it resulted in an entertaining contest that the champions won.
Result: The Club def. New Day and Cesaro and Sheamus to retain the titles
#6. Samoa Joe vs. Sami Zayn
Following the destruction caused by Lesnar, we saw 'Destroyer' Samoa Joe make his main roster live event debut in a match against the man he attacked this past Monday Night on Raw, Sami Zayn.
While Sami Zayn is mostly considered a placeholder as the opponent for Samoa Joe till Seth Rollins recovers from his injury, he is certainly the right guy to strengthen the heel image of Samoa Joe.
The match was ultimately won by Samoa Joe. The Zayn-Joe bout will most likely take place at Fastlane by the looks of it.
Result: Samoa Joe def. Sami Zayn
#7. Bayley and Sasha banks vs. Charlotte and Dana Brooke
The first match of the night saw the new Raw Women's Champion Bayley and Sasha Banks squaring off against the woman she defeated to win the title this past Monday on Raw, Charlotte and Dana Brooke.
The Champion was accompanied by Sasha Banks and the former Champion had her protege Dana Brooke. At the end, the new champion Bayley managed to keep her momentum going as she defeated the Queen of the PPVs and her understudy.
Result: Bayley and Sasha Banks def. Charlotte and Dana Brooke
#8. Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman
Lesnar decided not to wait until the end, and so the main event of the show was replaced with an announced Fastlane match, Roman Reigns vs. the Monster Among Men, Braun Strowman.
Reigns won the match with a spear to Strowman. Although the action didn't end there, as after the match, Roman put Strowman through a table.
Result: Roman Reigns def. Braun Strowman
Note: Kevin Owens was said to be absent from the show as he is in the midst of a break-up angle with Chris Jericho and also gearing up for a title match against Goldberg at Fastlane.
