Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins traded shocking remarks prior to their WWE Crown Jewel Championship Match on the ESPN App.
Penta & The War Raiders def. The New Day & Grayson Waller in a No Disqualification Six-Man Tag Team Match
The chaotic No Disqualification Six-Man Tag Team Match pitting Penta and The War Raiders against The New Day and Grayson Waller incorporated unforgiving Kendo sticks, exploding tables and destruction. Penta leveled Grayson Waller with the Avalanche Mexican Destroyer off the top rope for the win.
Stephanie Vaquer returned to Raw as the Women’s World Champion. She learned she will meet the winner of the WWE Women’s Title Triple Threat Match between Tiffany Stratton, Jade Cargill and Nia Jax at WWE Crown Jewel for the WWE Crown Jewel Championship.
Bayley def. Roxanne Perez
In the final moments of her match against Roxanne Perez, Bayley suddenly snapped with ruthless aggression and defeated her opponent with the Rose Plant. In the aftermath, the same Bayley that went on a hug-fest during her entrance suddenly shoved her supposed ally Lyra Valkyria to the canvas before screaming at her and storming from the ring.
Rusev def. JD McDonagh
When Rusev locked JD McDonagh in the Accolade, Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio got onto the apron, but he froze in fear and did not help his Judgment Day cohort. After making McDonagh tap out, The Bulgarian Brute refused to break the maneuver until Finn Bálor emerged to save McDonagh and admonish “Dirty” Dom.
Jey Uso def. LA Knight
LA Knight turned his attention to Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed when they attempted to interfere, and Jey Uso took advantage and blasted The Megastar with a Spear/Uso Splash combination for the victory. Despite Jimmy Uso’s plea with his brother to help Knight against a 2-on-1 attack after the match, Jey refused and left Jimmy to save Knight with a steel chair.
Rhea Ripley def. Asuka
Kairi Sane got on the apron to help Asuka against Rhea Ripley. When Rhea caught Sane’s attempt and Asuka charged in, The Empress of Tomorrow accidently took out her partner and paved the way for The Eradicator to roll up Asuka for the win.
After the match, Asuka hit Ripley with the mist, and she and Sane launched an attack. When IYO SKY emerged to save Ripley, Asuka attacked her. Together, Asuka and a reluctant Sane delivered a fierce post-match assault to their apparent former friend.
