WWE Raw Results, Winners And Grades On May 19, 2025
Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker in a non-title match on WWE Raw from South Carolina. WWE Raw advertised Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker in a non-title main event as Jey prepares for Logan Paul at WWE' Saturday Night's Main Event. Raw also advertised two women's qualifying Money in the Bank matches. Rhea Ripley faced off against Zoey Stark and Kairi Sane while Roxane Perez faced Becky Lynch and Natalya. Raw also advertised the Judgment Day vs. Penta and AJ Styles with El Grande Americano lurking in the background. Gunther talked up Logan Paul as a self-made man, and Paul prematurely soaked in the accolades. Gunther said he could learn something from Logan, who could potentially become the first-ever YouTuber to be world champion. Gunther quickly changed his tune as he scolded Paul for not having any heart. Gunther put over Pat McAfee as a non-wrestling performer with heart, and said Paul was the opposite. As Gunther walked away from the ring, Paul demanded that Gunther return. Paul turned around, only to take a super kick from Jey Uso. Michael Cole and Pat McAfee continued to talk up the tensions between Finn Balor and Dirty Dom as Dom was once again absent from ringside. At one point, it seemed like Judgment Day was going to lose due to another miscue as JD McDonagh accidentally struck Finn Balor. Once again, El Grande Americano crashed a Penta match, striking him with a headbutt. Balor finished off Penta with a Coup de Grace. Given how his popularity only increases every week, I'm shocked with how comfortable WWE is with beating Penta. Fans were strongly behind Raw newcomer Roxanne Perez, with multiple chants of 'we want tables!' Natalya attempted a double Sharpshooter, but was thwarted. The crowd really wanted to see that move. As the match got more competitive, a random section of the crowd wanted tables, but the rest of the arena was very much into this match. Natalya finally locked in the Sharpshooter on Roxanne, but it was broken up with a bulldog by Natalya. Natalya actually did lock in a double Sharpshooter to a huge ovation. Lynch escaped, and tried to vulture the win with a Manhandle Slam on Natalya. Lyra Valkyria hit the ring and attacked Becky, costing her the win as Perez defeated Natalya with Pop Rox. WWE randomly showed vintage footage of babyface John Cena defeating Michael Cole in the main event of a Raw in South Carolina back in 2012. The best part of this Patustrator segment was that they shouted out JR's Barbecue sauce as the WWE Hall of Famer battles colon cancer. Before the break, Grayson Waller told Austin Theory to 'watch and learn.' Theory didn't like that. The most surprising chant of the night from a hot crowd came when fans chanted 'Austin Theory' when Raw came back from break. Waller prepared to dive from the second rope, but was distracted by Theory. Grayson ended up taking a knee from Sheamus in midair. There were a small handful of ugly landings when Sheamus ragdolled Grayson Waller both in and out of the ring. Theory stopped Waller from leaving, opening the door for 10 Beats of the Bodhran. Sheamus won with a Brogue Kick, but when he beat his chest, the fans chanted 'boom!' instead of 'Brogue!' Zoey Stark blew her knee out as she went for a missile dropkick and was screaming in pain. Michael Cole acknowledged the injury as Rhea and Kairi stopped what they were doing. Raw went to commercial and came back from break with Rhea Ripley and Kairi Sane in a one-on-one match. There was another scary moment where Rhea Ripley hit a dropkick on Sane midair and Sane landed right on her face. After a lengthy one-on-one duel, Ripley beat Kairi Sane in her return match with a Riptide. Seth Rollins spent the entire night stirring the pot as he got in the heads of both Logan Paul and Gunther, giving disingenuous pep talks as to how they can beat Jey. Bron Breakker dominated most of the match early and when Raw came back from break. Breakker and Uso mistimed a catch-and-throw of Jey Uso through the announce table, but he made up for it with a flying clothesline on the table. Paul Heyman grabbed Jey Uso's foot as Uso hit the ropes. Jey went after Paul, but Rollins attacked Jey for the DQ finish. Sami Zayn hit the ring for the save, evening the odds. Fans chanted 'CM Punk' and got their wish as his music hit to a huge pop. Fans sang along to the music as Punk and Zayn faced off with Rollins and Breakker. This was one of the best Raw crowds of the year.
