The latest episode of WWE Monday Night Raw was hosted live at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. The episode primarily featured the latest build-up to WWE’s upcoming premium live event Elimination Chamber.
The show began with an epic clash as Cody Rhodes took on Drew McIntyre in one-on-one action. Later we also had a women’s battle royal for a last chance to qualify for the women’s chamber match. Fans also got to see an epic eight-man tag-team action on the night as DIY combined with Awesome Truth to take on the Judgement Day. Whereas, the main event of the night had a title defense in store as Gunther defended his Intercontinental championship against Jey Uso.
These are the results of all the fights on the latest episode of WWE Raw:
Cody Rhodes vs. Drew McIntyre
The match starts with McIntyre cutting a headbutt onto Rhodes but gets countered. Rhodes then locks a spinning toehold into the figure four leglock which McIntyre manages to escape. After a brief commercial break, we see McIntyre catching Cody with a quebradora. Rhodes is able to counter soon after which he tries setting up for the Cody Cutter. However, a distraction from Jimmy Uso leads to Solo Sikoa interfering and landing a Samoan Spike on Rhodes and a pinfall victory for McIntyre.
Elimination Chamber Qualifier Battle Royal (Changed from Five-Way Match)
The match saw a chaotic brawling start with some early eliminations from Raquel Rodriguez. After a break we see Shayna Baszler and Zoey Star work together to eliminate B-FAB. Next, Elektra Lopez eliminates Zelina Vega before Chelsea Green dumps Candice LeRae by shoving her into the post. Green finally gets eliminated by Rodriguez as she sealed her place in the elimination chamber.
DIY & Awesome Truth vs Judgment Day
McDonagh and the Miz start the action with some chest kicks. A left hand onto Balor on the apron results in an eight-man brawl as we move to a commercial break. Next, we see Ciampa running the ropes as he clobbers both Balor and McDonagh. Ciampa follows up with an inverted DDT but the pinfall gets broken by McDonagh. Damian Priest finishes off the match by landing the South of Heaven on R Truth and securing a pinfall.
Chad Gable vs Ivar
As the bell rings, Ivar runs down Gable with a boot. Gable soon recovered and returned a rolling Koppu kick to send his opponent to the floor. Gable then followed up with a slam before getting hit by the Cactus Crossbody. Next Gable lands a moonsault on Ivar but he kicks out. Gable then drags Ivar to the centre of the ring and locks in the ankle lock to win by submission.
Gunther vs Jey Uso – WWE Intercontinental Championship
The only title defence of the night begins with Gunther shoving Jey Uso before getting slapped by him in the face. After exchanging some moves Jey manages to hit Gunther with four spears. He then heads to the top for a Uso splash but his twin brother Jimmy Uso rings the bell. This leaves enough room for Gunther to take control of the match as he counters Jey’s Splash with his knees before cradling him up for a win.
