Commentators: Joe Tessitore, Wade Barrett

We’re coming up on Money In The Bank and the question this week is what 946 is going to do this time. The trio has been going kind of nuts around here, with Solo Sikoa being kidnapped last week. It’s going to take a special force to take them out and that should make for some interesting developments. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

In Memory Of Neville. I still can’t get my head around that one.

Opening recap.

We look at a special clip from last week, with Solo Sikoa being kidnapped and then left to walk away with a bag over his head.

Here is the Bloodline to get things going. They recap 946 coming after them, with Jimmy Uso saying that attacking and kidnapping their little brother was too far because that’s their blood. Jacob Fatu says that he’s been telling his brothers that it’s not tonight because the first move isn’t the best move. Now this is on him because it was his fault. Tonight though, it’s time to go to war and dog walk 946.

A car arrives in the back and the Bloodline goes after it without the door opening. We cut to the back where the door is opened, with an attendant saying that Adam Pearce is expecting them. The Bloodline shows up and takes him out…but it’s NXT’s Jaida Parker, who is hear to see Pearce. Jey Uso and Parker have a bit of a staredown in a wink wink moment.

Penta runs into Je’Von Evans in the back but Judgment Day interrupts. Dominik Mysterio says Penta stole his Money In The Bank spot and asks if he even cares that Solo Sikoa was kidnapped. Evans points out that JD McDonagh has a big head and the match is teased for later.

Lola Vice vs. Roxanne Perez

Vice knocks her down to start and grabs a headlock takeover, which is broken up as soon as they hit the mat. Perez’s headlock works a bit better but she has to fight out of a cross armbreaker attempt. Vice knocks her outside so Perez tries to leave, only to be sent back inside. A choke has Perez in trouble and she flips backwards for two but can’t break free. Instead they roll outside, where Perez has to ram her into the steps for the break. A northern lips suplex onto the arm has Vice in trouble and we take a break.

We come back with Vice kicking her down into the corner and hitting the running hip attack. Perez is back up with a running elbow to the back and a crossface, which is kicked away from the ropes so Vice can grab a triangle choke. With that broken up, Perez kicks her in the ribs but walks into a great looking spinning backfist (that came out of nowhere and Perez went down like she ran into a boulder) for the pin at 10:23.

Rating: B. The ending alone bumped this up a bit as Vice’s spinning backfist looked perfect. Other than that, this was the kind of win that helps make Vice feel like she belongs around here and that’s still being established. We’re still waiting for her first real feud, but at least she’s off to a good start.

Post match Vice dances but Raquel Rodriguez runs in to boot her in the face. Sol Ruca runs in for the save with a springboard dropkick but Perez breaks up the Sol Snatcher. That means Rodriguez can hit the Tejana Bomb to Ruca and Pop Rox to Vice. I’d think that covers the first real feud part.

Dragon Lee, with Rey Mysterio, is ready to face Big Cass tonight. He promises the fire but Cass comes in to say he’s putting the fire out. Mysterio holds Lee back.

946 has released a video, saying they knew what the Bloodline was going to do and promising that no one is safe tonight.

Here is Oba Femi for a chat. He says he’s not here for combat (though that can change) but he has to do things the right way. Over the last few weeks, he has been having issues with the Vision. It is no secret that things have changed since Bronson Reed came back. Reed wasn’t around when Femi won the King Of The Ring or beat Brock Lesnar so he doesn’t understand that Femi is the captain now.

Femi has a contract to face Reed at Money In The Bank, which is approved by Adam Pearce. He has already signed and is ready to do this the right way, which is how a wise man taught him to do it (the fans are interested in that). Femi wants and receives Reed out here on his own right now. Cue Reed, who says that he’s wrecked Femi twice and he’ll do it again. There’s the signature and Reed goes to leave, with Femi saying Reed has guts for sealing his own fate. I’ll take this over a formal contract signing but this could have been announced without the segment in general.

Earlier today, Iyo Sky was talking to Adam Pearce about an opportunity but Lyra Valkyria came up to ask why she’s having to ask what is next for her. The women get in an argument so Pearce puts them in a match. Sky: “She has issues.”

Dragon Lee vs. Big Cass

Lee jumps him on the way into the ring and the bell sounds with Cass in trouble on the floor. They get inside with Cass hitting a heck of a big boot to cut Lee off just as fast. Cass knocks him over the corner and out to the floor, where a chokeslam drops Lee onto the apron. We take a break and come back with Cass still in control and planting Lee down for two.

The kickout has Cass annoyed and it’s off to a crossface chickenwing. Lee fights out and kicks away, with some running dropkicks connecting in the corner. Cass misses a running big boot and gets hurricanranaed to the floor, with a camera being taken out. A great looking suicide dive hits Cass and Lee pulls him into something like an octopus. That’s broken up as well and Lee rolls into a DDT to plant Cass again. A running elbow to the head gives Lee two and he reverses a chokeslam into a flipping rollup for the pin at 12:15.

Rating: B-. This got rolling with a hot crowd carrying it again, as the story of the match was hardly anything brilliant. You can see Cass falling down the mountain as he is now just a good look and a heck of a big boot. As long as this doesn’t lead to Enzo Amore returning to suck the life out of everything he touches, I’m fine.

Jacob Fatu thinks 946 is going to try to split the Bloodline up so they have to stick together. The Usos are in, though Jey wasn’t thrilled at first.

Stephanie Vaquer is ready to defend her Women’s Title. Next week, it’s Liv Morgan vs. Becky Lynch and the winner gets a title shot at Money In The Bank.

LA Knight talks about how he became a star the second he got here. Then he got a title shot against Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso cost him the match. People like Reigns held him down for three years but now Knight is here again to do what he should have done a long time ago. As usual, Knight knows how to make anything sound serious and that he believes everything he’s saying. You can’t teach that kind of thing and it’s great to watch.

Iyo Sky vs. Lyra Valkyria

Feeling out process to start with Valkyria taking her down and working on the arm. Sky is right back to take the leg out and hit a running basement dropkick. Valkyria tries a monkey flip, with Sky landing on her feet. Valkyria’s rocking horse is broken up and Sky dropkicks her her out to the floor. Sky gets up on the barricade (with the fans helping her) and hits a high crossbody. Back up and Sky gets caught in the ropes, with Valkyria dropkicking her down and mocking the crazy pose as we take a break.

We come back with Sky armdragging her into a flapjack. A springboard missile dropkick looks to set up the Bullet Train, which is cut off with a superkick. Valkyria powerbombs her for two but Nightwing is countered into a double stomp. Sky kicks her in the face again and a butterfly powerbomb gives Sky two more. Valkyria gets in a catapult into the ropes and they go to the apron, with Valkyria hitting a fisherman’s buster.

Sky avoids an Asai moonsault though and Valkyria kicks the post by mistake. Now the Bullet Train can connect in the corner but Over The Moonsault is countered. Cue Bayley (with a BEN armband to honor Pac) to stand on the announcers’ table for a distraction, allowing Sky to dropkick her out of the air. Over The Moonsault finishes Valkyria at 14:11.

Rating: B. This was a couple of things at once, with Sky getting to show just how good she is again, which is always worth a watch, and Valkyria vs. Bayley continuing. That’s going to lead to a big showdown in the near future and I’m curious to see how it goes. Another good match here as the show is on a roll tonight.

LA Knight comes in to see the Bloodline, who blame him for Solo Sikoa being kidnapped last wee. Knight doesn’t seem to agree and says he’ll be waiting for Roman Reigns next week.

AAA Cruiserweight Champion Rey Fenix gets to defend his title across all brands so he wants to defend it on Raw. Chad Gable comes in to say he’s happy to have him here but Ethan Page comes in to mock the whole thing. Fenix tells him to shut up and a match is made for next week.

Money In The Bank rundown.

Judgment Day vs. Penta/Je’Von Evans

Judgment Day jumps them to start fast with Penta and Evans being sent outside. Mysterio hits a dive to the floor and we take a break. We come back with Penta getting to come in and clean house, including a slingshot dropkick to McDonagh in the corner. A springboard tornado DDT plants Mysterio and it’s back to Evans to hammer away in the corner. Penta sends both of them to the floor for a big running flip dive, which has Evans impressed.

We take a break and come back with Mysterio pulling at Penta’s mask. The 619 connects but Penta shrugs it off (not a great look there) so they can trade superkicks and clotheslines for a double down. Evans is back in to hit the Red Dot to McDonagh (that looked great) and then gets a heck of a dive to crush Mysterio in the timekeeper’s area.

Back in and a springboard dive gets two on McDonagh but the OG Cutter misses. A superkick nails McDonagh but another OG Cutter hits Penta by mistake. The headbutt sends Evans into Mysterio’s 619 for a rather near fall. Cue Joe Hendry with the McDonagh Funko Pop, which has McDonagh going up the aisle. Mysterio misses a frog splash and Penta superkicks McDonagh into Evans’ big dive. The Mexican Destroyer finishes Mysterio at 17:00.

Rating: B. You take out the latest WWE “OK WE GET THE JOKE!” with the Funko Pop and this is that much better of a match. They were going nuts out there with the action and it made for a heck of a main event. Mysterio and McDonagh work well together, but Evans stole the show here with that big sequence he had near the end. It made him look like a superhero and that’s where he shines best. Heck of a match, with a better performance from Evans. Just stop with the Funko Pop deal already.

Post match here is Bron Breakker to take Penta and Evans out.

Becky Lynch is ready for her #1 contenders match against Liv Morgan, who comes in to interrupt. Morgan talks about how she’s been cheated so much and deserves the title shot. Lynch says then Morgan should have no trouble beating her.

Here’s what’s coming next week.

946 arrives and they have their tickets in hand. Security is taken out and here is the Bloodline to join things. The big brawl is on with the Usos taking over on OTM but they come back to send the Usos into the post. Fatu is taken out as well and seems to have hurt his knee. OTM and the Usos brawl into the crowd, where a bunch of fans are taken out. Jey is dragged to the back where Jimmy joins them but we cut back to Keys unloading on Fatu with a chair.

Some superkicks get Fatu out of trouble though and he hits the running Umaga Attack in the corner. The chair is wrapped around Key’s neck but he slides to the floor before it can get crushed. Fatu is fine with getting in some chair shots on the run and we cut to the back where the other four are still being sent into various things. Fatu and Keys join them with Keys trying to escape in his car.

Fatu charges at the car but Keys opens the door to cut him off. Then a car runs Fatu over (or more than likely the stunt double given the amount of camera cuts)….and it’s Jaida Parker driving. Now one might think something is up as she was driven to the arena and is now leaving in a different car and indeed, Parker says no one is safe and leaves with Keys (“All gas, no brakes!”) to end the show. The Bloodline is going to need someone to help them deal with Parker, who is new at this and might need to proceed with caution.

Overall Rating: B+. The action here was good throughout the card and I like the angle at the end, which could help make 946 into a bigger story. They’ve been terrorizing the show for weeks now and it’s starting to work, but with Reigns back next week, things could go badly for them. In addition to that, this was a very good show with a red hot crowd making it even better. Solid show here and it should get bigger next week.

Results
Lola Vice b. Roxanne Perez – Spinning backfist
Dragon Lee b. Big Cass – Rollup
Iyo Sky b. Lyra Valkyria – Over The Moonsault
Penta/Je’Von Evans b. Judgment Day – Mexican Destroyer to Mysterio
