Here are the results of segments and winners from tonight's WWE Raw.
List of Netflix's WWE Monday Night Raw matches and winners on April 28
As usual, the night began by depicting the pre-show arrivals of stars such as SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis, serving as the interim Raw manager for the night; Rhea Ripley; Logan Paul; Roxanne Perez; and American Made. Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman appeared in the ring for the first segment of the night and discussed their action. Other segments featured Paul, Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, and Becky Lynch. There were four matches tonight: Rhea Ripley vs. Roxanne Perez, War Raiders vs. Judgment Day, Stephanie Vaquer vs. Ivy Nile, and Bron Breakker vs. Sami Zayn.
Below are the results from tonight's WWE Raw matches:
Rhea Ripley vs. Roxanne Perez
Ripley took on Perez in the first match of the night. It went back and forth until Giulia appeared in the ring and intervened. Ripley was declared the winner by disqualification but found herself outnumbered by the other two pro wrestlers. This was when Women's World Champion IYO SKY showed up and helped Ripley deal with her adversaries.
The War Raiders vs. the Judgment Day
The War Raiders (Erik and Ivar) wrestled the Judgment Day (Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh) in the second match. Carlito was present in the corner of the latter team, but it didn't ultimately help them, as Penta appeared and threw JD McDonagh from the top rope. The War Raiders subsequently won via pinfall.
Stephanie Vaquer vs. Ivy Nile
NXT Women's Champion Stephanie Vaquer fought Ivy Nile, who had Chad Gable on her side, in a non-title match. It ended with the former winning via pinfall.
Bron Breakker vs. Sami Zayn
Rollins wanted Zayn to join his newly formed collective, but the latter refused. This resulted in a brutal match between Bron Breakker and Zayn. The former won via referee stoppage.

WWE Raw results, highlights (June 2): El Grande Americano beats CM Punk, AJ Styles

The WWE Money In the Bank matches are set — and folks, CM Punk will not be involved. "WWE Raw" in Tulsa, Oklahoma delivered a shock ending with the men's triple-threat main event to decide the final entrant in the men's Money In The Bank ladder match. Things are getting out of hand, because El Grande Americano defeated Punk and AJ Styles to round out the participants. 😱 Swerve of the Night I'm not even sure how to start this one. Chad Gable's luchador gimmick has been pushed far beyond what anyone could've expected. We all love a good swerve, but this just felt wrong, especially after how "WWE Raw" opened. Advertisement Punk laid down the gauntlet with a promo that was simple but to the point, claiming he was coming after both world champions, starting with Jey Uso and then John Cena. The callbacks were solid, and Cena feels like the type of direction Punk should be heading toward at the end of all this. If he's the one to dethrone Cena, it would be beautifully poetic. Everyone remembers Punk walking out with the title after that historic moment they shared back in 2011. The reversal in 2025 would be Punk taking the belt with Cena on his way out. Hopefully we get there, but for now it's just a continuous loop of the Seth Rollins forever feud. That's fine, but WWE needs to find ways to keep it fast and fresh. Sami Zayn came out to tell Punk he needed to win the Money In the Bank ladder match, otherwise Rollins would ruin everything. It was hilarious to hear Zayn say that because Cena is the one literally trying to ruin wrestling. In the end, Zayn promised that he and Punk will meet again when Punk is the champion. Well, it's not looking so good at this rate, bud. There were some nice wrinkles to everything around this match throughout the night, like Paul Heyman's attempt to persuade Styles to go for the Intercontinental title instead. Sadly, "The Phenomenal One" arguably looked like the biggest bozo of the night. Advertisement Regarding the match, first and foremost, Styles is one of the greatest triple-threat match wrestlers of all time. If you know, you know. And seeing him and Punk together in a match again was pretty insane. It was nice to see them tell the referee to check Americano for the steel plate in his mask. The match had plenty of unsurprisingly awesome sequences, then Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed prevented Punk's pin of Americano off a GTS, prompting the arrival of Zayn and Uso. Here's where it was particularly silly. Still in the ring as the non-match chaos unfolded on the outside, Styles just decided to jump off the top rope onto the pile of bodies, excluding Americano. My guy, how many years have you been in the business? The booking of that spot makes Styles look so incredibly dumb. Ultimately, it set up his attempt at the Phenomenal Forearm on Americano, who was still in the ring, only to be countered with a headbutt that earned Americano the pin. Advertisement This is nuts, and I'm unsure how to feel about it. If anything, there's now no chance Rollins wins the ladder match for as long as Punk is still breathing. And like I said last week, his boys should literally just help him try to win from the beginning of the match because they can. There are a lot of holes in all of the logic around this storyline at this point, but I'll tell you what, I won't even be surprised if Americano actually wins it now. This might be Triple H's comedy replacement for R-Truth and Carlito. I wish I were joking. Maximum unpredictability Perhaps my investment is just deeper than I realize, but the women's Money In the Bank ladder match realistically could — and should — have anyone but Rhea Ripley win. That's no knock on Ripley; she simply could use it the least of any other five options, and any of them makes sense — choosing the right person feels impossible. That's a good problem to have because of how any can be good. Advertisement However, no one right is looking better than this show's... 👑 Uncrowned Gem of the Night 👑 Let's lay a little foundation for the final qualifier match that happened on "WWE Raw." It was Liv Morgan vs. Ivy Nile vs. Stephanie Vaquer, the last of whom is now officially a member of the "WWE Raw" roster after recently dropping her NXT Women's Championship to Jacy Jayne. Spoiler alert: She won. This woman is a megastar in the making and should be treated as such, so push her beyond the moon. Her presentation should automatically lead viewers to think she'll win the briefcase. It's been the definition of investment in "La Primera" and rightfully so. She's so damn good. ♻️ Repeat of the Night Regarding one of the Women's Tag Team Champs Morgan, this was another case of WWE devaluing titles by putting them in qualifier matches. WWE did it with both U.S. Champions participating — and losing — in Money In the Bank qualifiers this year. It's so, so dumb, and it hurts the already hurting Women's Tag Team titles more than the others. 🫨 Contrast of the Night After mentioning the Women's U.S. Championship, we have to talk about the difference between how WWE is treating that title and its Intercontinental counterpart. It's stunning. Zelina Vega and Chelsea Green are in a perpetual loop of nonsense with the U.S. strap, while Lyra Valkyria is doing the best work of her career on the mic with Becky Lynch — a main event caliber dance partner. Advertisement Lynch delivered a solid video promo before she was called out by the almost unnecessarily angry Valkyria in the ring. She justified it quickly and dug into the former world champ with great barbs. Lynch's focus on the hand-raising from Valkyria after their match is pretty silly, and this program really should've continued after WWE Backlash, but as long as Valkyria hangs onto the title, it will have been a win for her. 🚫 DQ of the Night There's no point to some of these matches in WWE under Triple H, other than to highlight how dumb they can be. Jey Uso and Sami Zayn defeated Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker by DQ when Seth Rollins attacked Uso. So why bother? Advertisement The match didn't even progress the storyline between everyone, as Punk arrived to even the numbers, and that was that. 👍 MONDAY NIGHT MONEY 👍 1. Michael Cole made good on his bet after the New York Knicks beat the Indiana Pacers in the NBA playoffs, which meant he had to wear a Pacers jersey for the whole show. That was just good wholesome fun. 2. WWE probably wasn't thrilled about it, but there were several "Bring back Truth" and "We want Truth" chants in honor of the recently released R-Truth throughout "WWE Raw." It's pretty wild to hear that type of support, but you love to hear the crowd let their voices be heard. 3. Kairi Sane defeated Raquel Rodriguez in their match thanks to the aid of Iyo Sky, who stopped Morgan's interference. The positive here is Sane staying strong since she returned and picking up wins, somewhat single-handedly embarrassing the Women's Tag Team Champions. However, WWE is clearly going to inject Morgan somehow back into the Women's World title picture, as evidenced by these Sky interactions. Advertisement Ideally, the Roxanne Perez Judgment Day involvement will steer her from that path. 4. Karrion Kross continued his attempts to persuade the "real" Zayn to come out backstage after his match against Reed and Breakker. This has to build to something, whether that's a team with Kross or turning heel on his own to pursue a world title, either works. 👎 RAW DEAL 👎 1. The backstage Rusev video packages continued. When he popped on screen tonight, I legit thought to myself: "Miro!" Rusev is WWE Miro now, and it's pretty disheartening, especially when Miro was so good and could've been great if utilized effectively. The callbacks to his history with Sheamus were good, but to do it with the same old style is lame. Give this guy something new. I'm begging you, Triple H. Advertisement 2. The Judgment Day (Finn Balor and JD McDonagh) defeated The War Raiders — with the help of Perez, because The Judgment Day might literally not be allowed to win without an interference. The match was fine, but a rehash of something we've seen before. Outside of The Judgment Day story progression, which was very minimal with this, there's zero reason to care about this tag-team division. 3. WWE showed a hype video for Uso and Gunther's rematch next Monday, which was loaded mainly with footage of everything before WrestleMania 41. You know. Because nothing new has happened between them since — and for Gunther specifically, he's only had one match, and it was against a commentator. 👑Despite that wild booking choice that closed out this "WWE Raw," there was more good than bad, and it was an enjoyable show. I give it a Crown score of: 7.5/10.👑

Circling back to Cena, it was hilarious to hear Zayn say that because Cena is the one literally saying he's trying to ruin wrestling. Meanwhile, this story is being portrayed as Rollins trying to ruin it. Not from him, but his rivals. In a way, he really has been somewhat of the good guy in all of his storylines for roughly the past year now. In the end, Zayn promised he and Punk would meet again when Punk is the champion. Well, it's not looking so good at this rate, bud.

WWE Raw Results, Winners And Grades On June 2, 2025

CM Punk vs. AJ Styles vs. El Grane Americano. Credit: WWE WWE Raw advertised CM Punk vs. AJ Styles and El Grande Americano for the final men's Money in the Bank spot. WWE also advertised Stephanie Vaquer vs. Ivy Nile and Liv Morgan for the final women's Money in the Bank spot. The Judgment Day faced The War Raiders, and Sami Zayn and Jey Uso faced Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. CM Punk vowed to win the Money in the Bank match and said he'd either cash it in on Jey Uso or John Cena. Punk called Dwayne Johnson a 'bald fraud and a goof' when referencing The Rock, who bought Cena's soul. Punk kissed up to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who will be appearing in the NBA Finals. Michael Cole was wearing a Pacers jersey after losing a bet with Pat McAfee. Sami Zayn interrupted Punk, and as his music died down there were slight 'we want Truth' chants. Sami Zayn cut a promo on Punk saying Punk has to win the briefcase to keep it from Seth Rollins. Apparently, Sami was unaware there are seven other five other stars who can win Money in the Bank outside of Rollins. Sami's promo had the same vibes as Will Ospreay imploring Hangman Adam Page to beat Jon Moxley at AEW All In Texas, except in this case, fans actually care about the heel stable. Backstage, Ivy Nile told Roxanne Perez to stay out of her way. Roxanne obliged. Just like she did in AEW, just like she did in NXT, Stephanie Vaquer was over the moment she stepped through the smoke during her entrance. Fans chanted 'Stephanie!' before the match even began. Vaquer performed her scissor stomp, and Pat McAfee was utterly terrible in his Booker T impression. Vaquer won the match with the Devil's Kiss on Ivy Nile, and I would have no problem if WWE put the rocket on her immediately with a Money in the Bank win. Vaquer had a backstage moment with Rhea Ripley after her win. After Liv Morgan's loss from earlier, suddenly it's Finn Balor who is winning matches while his Judgment Day contemporaries are struggling. The New Day once again appeared on commentary to troll the War Raiders. Roxanne Perez interfered, successfully distracting the War Raiders as Finn Balor picked up the win with the Coup de Grace. As a result, Liv Morgan lost without the help of Perez, while Balor and JD McDonagh won with Perez's help. Backstage, Becky Lynch cut a promo on Lyra Valkyria about how she's in a lose-lose situation headed into Money in the Bank. Lyra Valkyria called out Becky Lynch to confront her live. Lynch obliged, but when Lyra tried cutting her promo, fans gave poor Lyra the 'What' treatment. Valkyria and Lunch brawled at the end of the segment, and had to be separated by WWE officials. Both Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed's music was used in their entrance themes, further evidence that WWE has yet to come up with a group name or music for this faction. There was an excellent spot where Breakker and Reed (dressed in all black) caught Sami Zayn and Jey Uso hit a Suicide Dive to topple all three of them over. Sami Zayn, also dressed in all black appeared out of nowhere to hit a Curb Stomp for the DQ. As Bronson Reed teased a Tsunami on Zayn through a table, CM Punk saved the day with a steel chair. Backstage, Zayn had another confrontation with Karrion Kross, who once again tried to tempt him to turn heel. Backstage, Morgan warned Finn about Roxanne Perez, implying she doesn't trust either of them. Balor reminded Morgan that things didn't go Liv's way last week or this week. Morgan shot down Balor's idea to have Roxanne corner Raquel Rodriguez. Balor then teased coming after Dom's IC Title. The highlights of this match were all the times fans loudly chanted 'We want Truth!' and 'We want R-Truth!' They also chanted 'What's Up?!' The announcers blatantly ignored the chants, except when Pat McAfee finally said 'That's what's up!' As The Judgment Day benefited from the numbers game, Iyo Sky made the save and attacked Liv, who had another backstage moment with Iyo earlier in the night. Kairi capitalized on the distraction and defeated Raquel with an Insane Elbow. The way this storyline is headed, Liv Morgan is going to dethrone Iyo Sky and Roxanne Perez very well may be holding the Money in the Bank briefcase while Liv is world champion. CM Punk's entrance received the Xfinity decibel meter treatment, and it peaked at around 101 decibels. At the request of CM Punk and AJ Styles, referee Shawn Bennett checked El Grande Americano's mask to make sure there was no steel inside. Silly babyfaces, El Grande Americano usually puts the steel in his head during the match, not before. Punk and Styles immediately dumped El Grande Americano out of the ring. After taking a hard hit from Styles, Punk appeared to lose a tooth, but it may have been chewing gum. Punk teased unmasking El Grande Americano, and there was a huge pop until Americano thwarted the unmasking with a jawbreaker over the rope. There was a dueling chant of 'He's Chad Gable/No he's not!' Breakker pulled Punk out of the ring as he was going for the win. Jey Uso and Sami Zayn saved Punk, which played into what Gunther told Jey backstage: that Jey can't help but save all his friends when he should be focusing on his match against Gunther. Of course, El Grande Americano won with a diving loaded headbutt to AJ Styles. Rollins, Breakker and Reed laid out the babyfaces to end the show. This included, not one, but two Tsunamis on Jey Uso who continues to spread himself too thin.
