...
...
Gallows & Anderson seem to be consoling Finn Balor after the match. Odd scene to finish RAW
...
There seemed to be a confusing finish as Balor had Rollins rolled up in what seemed like a 3-count. The referee insisted it was 2 however. The Bar came out and Jordan ducked them, causing them to brawl. Jordan assisted Rollins and tripped him, causing Rollins to hit  CURB STOMP! IT'S BACK! CURB STOMP IS BACK!!

Seth Rollins defeated Finn Balor

Rollins attempted a phoenix splash but missed it. Balor hit the running dropkick and even climbed to the top turnbuckle for the coupe-de-grace, but Rollins used his agility to suplex Balor and hit the Falcon Arrow! 
...
Seth Rollins is on the move with a series of splashes, but the leader of the Balor Club hits a slingblade. His attempt at a dropkick was met with a superkick instead.
...
Finn Balor elbows Seth Rollins, who tries to counter with a suplex. He starts to build some momentum with a double stomp.
...

Oh on a side note, Samoa Joe has been removed from the Royal Rumble match card - more or less confirming that he's missing the Rumble.
...
Finn Balor starts off strong. He has a hold on The Architect Seth Rollins, who gets up.  He reverses things but Finn Balor hits a dropkick onto Seth Rollins.

Charly Caruso interviewed Revival, even making reference to Cornette. They say they are students of the game. Charly Caruso asks them which team they're looking forward to meeting and they take a shot at DX, saying that they're the reason the business is a mockery. They claim they're the future and set the seeds to probably get buried next week.

Nia Jax was backstage with Alexa,  who seems shocked that Nia didn't put Asuka away. Enzo comes in to check and Alexa tells her to scoot. Nia says Enzo's got this and Alexa goes.
...
...
...
Kurt Angle is still looking through his destroyed office and Jason Jordan comes in and thanks, Kurt Angle for the opportunity. Kurt Angle doesn't seem to be paying much attention to what Jordan is saying, obviously. Jordan asks Angle to give Seth a match. Angle asks who he wants him to face, and he says Finn Balor.

Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor is official later on!
...
...
Outside the ring, Nia pushes Asuka into the ring apron. She takes time to compose herself and when she steps on the steel steps, Asuka kicks her now-injured knee. Nia manages to make it back to the ring on time but she is barely able to stand up.

The referee stops the match due to injury. Asuka wins.
