WWE 'Raw': Jey Uso defends title against Seth Rollins
May 6 (UPI) -- World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso defended his title against Seth Rollins in the main event of WWE Raw.
Uso accepted the match after talking with Rollins' new manager, The Wiseman Paul Heyman. Rollins has started a new group with Heyman that also includes Bron Breakker after he defeated Roman Reigns and CM Punk at WrestleMania 41.

Heyman told Uso that Rollins was willing to face him anytime and anywhere. Uso decided that Raw was the best time as he wasn't afraid of any challengers.
Uso and Rollins had a highly-competitive match for Raw's top prize in the main event. Rollins was joined at ringside by Heyman and Breakker.
Rollins, during the bout, impressively countered a Spear from Uso and turned it into a Pedigree to nearly win. As things started to look dire for Uso, his best friend Sami Zayn arrived from the audience to take out Breakker and even the odds.
Breakker was only stunned momentarily and was eventually able to take out both Zayn and Uso with a Spear as Heyman distracted the referee.

Rollins then nailed Uso with a Stomp and seemed just seconds away from capturing the World Heavyweight Championship until Punk's music hit, much to the crowd's delight.
Punk rushed to the ring with a steel chair and attacked Rollins, ending the match in a disqualification. With a disqualification, Uso remains the World Heavyweight Champion.
After Raw went off the air, Uso was attacked by Logan Paul, who also has his sights set on the World Heavyweight Championship.

David Beckham to receive Knighthood from King Charles
June 6 (UPI) -- Soccer icon David Beckham will be awarded knighthood next week as part of King Charles' birthday festivities. Sources told the BBC, Sky Sports and The Times about the plan Thursday night. Beckham, 50, will take on the title of Sir, while his wife, Victoria Beckham, will be known as Lady Beckham. Beckham, who has long served as an ambassador for the King's Foundation and UNICEF, was first nominated for knighthood in 2011. The Inter Miami co-owner, who retired from soccer in 2013, was appointed as an OBE -- Order of the British Empire -- in 2003. Beckham appeared in 115 games for the England men's national team. He was captain during 59 of those appearances. He is the only English men's player to score at three different World Cups. Beckham also won six Premier League crowns while at Manchester United before starring at Real Madrid and moving to the MLS to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy. He later spent time with AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain. King Charles, 76, was born Nov. 14, 1948, but will celebrate his official birthday at June's traditional Trooping the Color ceremony.

WWE Money In The Bank 2025: Matches, Start Time, Stream
Seth Rollins, Bronson Reed, Bron Breakker and Paul Heyman WWE Money in the Bank 2025 boasts a succinct, four-match card during an otherwise loaded weekend for TKO. Money in the Bank comes after WWE's Worlds Collide event in partnership with newly acquired promotion Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. Both shows will be held in Inglewood with Worlds Collide just down the street at the Kia Forum earlier in the day at noon PST. Both Money in the Bank matches feature mostly up-and-coming talent compared to the star-studded Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber during WrestleMania 41 season. It's fitting of WWE's transitional period between WrestleMania and SummerSlam, as the promotion continues to settle into new storylines headed into the second half of the year. Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria have gone back-and-forth on the mic since Lynch's heel turn on the Raw After WrestleMania. Similar to her husband Seth Rollins, Lynch has been mostly cheered despite being a heel. Unlike Rollins, Becky is unnatural in her role as a villain, and it often seems forced. Both Lynch and Lyra have battled 'what' chants during their promos. Lynch is 0-2 against Valkyria in title matches. Given the last-chance stipulation, expect Becky Lynch to prevail as a strong favorite, thereby becoming the second-ever women's Intercontinental champion. John Cena's heel turn has received mixed results. After teasing a Money in the Bank win during the premiere of Raw on Netflix, that ended up being unnecessary after Cena cheated his way to a record-breaking 17th world championship win at WrestleMania 41. Cena now finds himself in an exhibition match, alongside Logan Paul, against Cody Rhodes and WWE world heavyweight champion Jey Uso. After losing the WWE Championship due to 'doing the right thing,' and hesitating to strike John Cena with the WWE Championship belt, Cody Rhodes vowed he would not hesitate next time. This could be the night where Cody Rhodes cheats to defeat John Cena, but that would seem premature. Instead, I think WWE uses this match to further its long-term story of Jey Uso stretching himself too thin while helping his friends like Rhodes and Sami Zayn. WWE wants Jey to be as big of an underdog as possible headed into his WWE World Championship match against Gunther on next week's June 9 Raw from Phoenix. Losing at Money in the Bank would do just that. More times than not, WWE goes with a surprise for the Money in the Bank winner. CM Punk in 2009, Jack Swagger in 2010, John Cena in 2012, Nikki A.S.H. in 2021 and Liv Morgan in 2022 are among the large handful of surprise winners. In 2019, Brock Lesnar won the Money in the Bank briefcase when he wasn't even in the match. Seth Rollins is by far the biggest favorite to win the men's Money in the Bank match as a top heel flanked by two monsters in Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. The unnamed stable is almost guaranteed to interfere, which bodes well for Seth Rollins. Having said that, CM Punk has vowed to never let Rollins win a world title, and could even the odds by interfering himself. This opens the door for yet another Money in the Bank upset, and if that is the case (pun intended), the most satisfying winner would be El Grande Americano. The Women's Money in the Bank match feels wide open. Though Naomi is the favorite, I could see anybody winning this match. Naomi has been great with her 'proceed with caution" gimmick. After spending her entire career as a babyface, she's been perfect as a heel since Day 1. The triangle between Naomi, Bianca and Jade Cargill will get very interesting with a Money in the Bank briefcase involved. Over on Raw, the Judgment Day's impending breakup sets up for a second Judgment Day member to win the briefcase after Damian Priest won in 2023. Roxanne Perez is a very serious darkhorse to win the Money in the Bank briefcase with Liv Morgan destined for a world title match against Iyo Sky. If there wasn't already tension between the two, Morgan winning the women's world title and having to look over her shoulder for Perez—whom she already doesn't trust—makes for compelling television.
