Ronda Rousey (c) vs Ruby Riott - RAW Women's Championship

If you've seen NXT, you know that the vicious Black Mass kick can come out of nowhere. This is exactly what happened to Elias.

Aleister Black vs Elias

It doesn't take long for Black to send Elias out of the ring. He bounces against the ropes and hits his signature sit-down pose.

He's interrupted by former NXT Champion ALEISTER BLACK!

Elias is about to start playing but says he's sick of how he's been treated. He's the most talented and charismatic superstar there is, and he's too hygenic for a dirty town like Lafayette. He says he's going to sing a song for HIMSELF.

Seth Rollins says that he's going to be Universal Champion, despite what Paul Heyman says. Dean Ambrose confronts him and asks where he was out there. Rollins, bewildered, asks if he's completely lost his mind. Ambrose shrugs and walks away. It looks like he's forgotten the last few months.
