WWE South American shows always tend to have a different vibe & energy, and last night was no different when superstars from both Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live headlined an absolutely electric show in Santiago, Chile.

Featuring the likes of Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor, Andrade 'Cien' Almas, and The Riott Squad, the Santiago show definitely did live up to all of its expectations, and here is how all the action unfolded.


#1 Drew McIntyre vs Finn Balor vs Dolph Ziggler

'The Scottish Psychopath' Drew McIntyre has been running roughshod through the entire Monday Night Raw roster, and this past week on Raw, the former Raw Tag Team Champion ignited a feud against his former tag team partner, Dolph Ziggler.

Ziggler, who last week was victorious over McIntyre, thanks to a little assist from Finn Balor, found himself in the ring with both the Irishman and the Scotsman last night in Santiago, Chile.

As expected, the triple threat between McIntyre, Balor, and Ziggler was fast paced and full of action. Eventually, it was McIntyre who came out on top, and scored a huge win.

Result: Drew McIntyre def. Finn Balor and Dolph Ziggler


#2 Bayley, Natalya, and Ember Moon vs The Riott Squad

For the past several months, The Riott Squad has been on top of their game on Monday Night Raw, as their sneak attacks on the likes of Ronda Rousey, Natalya, Sasha Banks, and Bayley have done quite the damage so far.

Last night in Santiago, Chile, the trio of Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan, and Sarah Logan found themselves in a six-woman tag match against Bayley, Natalya, and Ember Moon, however, the match did not have a decisive winner as it ended in a wild brawl between both sides, with Nattie eventually putting Riott through a table.

This has now led to a tables match between Natalya and Ruby Riott for TLC.

Result: Match ended in a no contest

#3 Elias vs Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley

Much like Finn Balor, Elias has also found himself on the wrong side of Baron Corbin, who for the past several weeks has been putting the man formerly known as 'The Drifter' through hell and back.

Last night in Santiago, Elias definitely didn't have the numbers game in his favour, but thanks to an assist from Apollo Crews, he was able to overcome the trio of Corbin, McIntyre, and Lashley, much to everyone's surprise.

Result: Elias def. Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley


#4 Buddy Murphy vs Gren Metalik - WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Ever since capturing the WWE Cruiserweight Title in his home country of Australia, Buddy Murphy has been on absolute fire, putting together some of the absolute best matches with the best 205 Live stars.

Santiago was no different either, as Murphy successfully defended his Cruiserweight Title in yet another thrilling contest against Lucha House Party's Gren Metalik.

Result: Buddy Murphy def. Gren Metalik


#5 Rey Mysterio vs Andrade 'Cien' Almas

Rey Mysterio and Andrade 'Cien' Almas have already collided once on SmackDown Live, and their initial bout was no less than outstanding. Last night in Chile, the two men once again were on course for yet another classic bout with 'The Master of the 619' coming out on top yet again.

Almas as usual, was resilient and determined, but wasn't able to overcome Mysterio's experience inside the ring.

Result: Rey Mysterio def. Andrade 'Cien' Almas

#6 Titus Worldwide, No Way Jose, and Heath Slater vs The Revival, Rhyno, and Jinder Mahal

This match felt like a filler tag match with both the babyface and the heel team getting a lot of offense against each other on numerous occasions. All eight men had their moments during the match, and eventually it was the babyface team of Titus O'Neil and co who came out on top.

Result: Titus Worldwide, No Way Jose, and Heath Slater def. The Revival, Rhyno, and Jinder Mahal


#7 Ronda Rousey vs Nia Jax (with Tamina Snuka) - Raw Women's Championship

Ahead of their clash at TLC, Raw Women's Champion, Ronda Rousey, had a little teaser of things to come in her upcoming match against the 'Irresistible Force' Nia Jax.

Despite the size disadvantage, Rousey definitely didn't back down from yet another fight and also applied Roman Reigns' infamous Superman Punch during the match. However, credits to Nia Jax for the resilient effort as well.

In the end though, the match ended via DQ as Rousey managed to retain her title belt.

Result: Ronda Rousey def. Nia Jax via DQ


#8 Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose - WWE Intercontinental Championship

Much like the Raw Women's title match, the WWE IC Title will also be on the line at TLC, and ahead of Ambrose and Rollins' big match in a few days time, the duo squared off in Santiago, Chile last night.

Rollins in particular, came out to a huge pop, and was super over with the WWE Universe. 'The Architect' used the crowd support to his advantage, and had the upperhand on several occasions during the match. However, the bout eventually ended in yet another DQ finish, as Rollins managed to retain his belt.

Result: Seth Rollins def. Dean Ambrose via DQ
