WWE 'Raw': Roman Reigns, Jey Uso fall to Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed
July 29 (UPI) -- Roman Reigns and Jey Uso were decimated during a wild brawl with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed on WWE Raw. Chaos erupted as Uso faced off against Reed in a one-on-one match in the main event of Raw on Monday. Breakker made his way to the ring after Uso had gained the upper hand following a Suicide Dive from the ring. Breakker wasted no time in delivering a Spear to Uso on the entrance ramp, which ended the match in a disqualification. Breakker and Reed started to beat down Uso until his cousin, Reigns, ran down to the ring to even the odds. Reigns successfully cleared the ring despite not being able to lift up the over 300-pound Reed. The tables were turned, however, when Reigns and Uso decided to continue the fight outside the ring where their rivals were waiting. Breakker and Reed proceeded to quickly lay waste to the cousin duo. Reed performed a Tsunami on both men from the top rope, while Breakker ended things with a Spear that sent Reigns and Uso crashing through the side ring barrier. Breakker and Reed are a part of Seth Rollins' new cabal alongside manager Paul Heyman. Rollins, who holds the Money in the Bank briefcase, is currently out with an injury. Reigns and Uso will be teaming up to take on Breakker and Reed in a Tag Team match at SummerSlam this weekend, which takes place Aug. 2 and 3 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. Rapper Cardi B serves as the host. SummerSlam will also feature Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena defending his title against Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Gunther defending his title against CM Punk.

WWE Raw results, highlights (July 28): Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed destroy Roman Reigns, Jey Uso
The go-home edition of "WWE Raw" before SummerSlam burned the house down in Detroit with some unexpectedly creative angles and matches. That's not to say we didn't encounter some of the typical weekly nonsense, but this was as good as it gets for a weekly offering on a Monday night. Bookended by bollocks I can't be the only one who feels like Jey Uso's realignment with Roman Reigns is one of the bigger revisions of history in recent memory. At least that's how Uso's typical, sweaty, winded promo came off as he failed to counter Paul Heyman, who laid out the truth about The Bloodline's history and how Reigns treated him. It's remarkable how Seth Rollins' justified reasoning for "heel" work over the past year has quickly permeated Heyman's character. The more you peel back this onion, these guys really are more anti-heroes than they're supposed to be (or at least more than they're portrayed). Honestly, the whole segment was pretty ramble-heavy from both men, but still served as an appetizer for the most predictable DQ main event imaginable: Uso vs. Bronson Reed. The match was pretty solid until Bron Breakker just ran out to spear Uso and force Uso's DQ win. Seriously, what's even the point, man? Not just with these consistent, stupid DQ endings, but specifically with Rollins' crew, who evidently don't care about winning matches whatsoever unless implications are on the line. Why wouldn't Breakker just attack immediately? There's zero logic behind him waiting and giving his man a chance to lose or take damage. It's dumb, and I'm becoming a broken record at this point. Reigns predictably made the save, as he was advertised for Monday's show and hadn't been seen once until the match started. It was all just a tease for the SummerSlam tag-team match, closing with Breakker looking like a monster when he hit a double spear through the barricade. However, let's address a different problem that has come from the Rollins injury fallout. Missing man LA Knight has been completely screwed. He's gone. Where is he? Since Knight essentially got buried in the World Heavyweight Championship contender gauntlet match after Saturday Night's Main Event, he's been off television. Rumor has it that he was lined up for a big rematch against Rollins at SummerSlam to get his redemption. If that's the case, his absence should debunk any conspiracies about the legitimacy of Rollins' injury and a surprise SummerSlam cash-in. Though if that does end up happening, and Knight has just been discarded away in the meantime, I don't know how he doesn't walk out of the company after what would be a complete and utter mishandling of his character. Even as we stand now, not having Knight on TV at all is a mishandling of the highest order. Sure, it's not his fault that things have unfolded this way, but man — how do you leave one of the most over acts on your roster off TV when they heated up so much after you booked them pretty damn well? All hope — at least for SummerSlam — appears lost for "The Megastar." The start and the end of this "Raw" were mostly all that was bad about it, though. Let's get into all the good that was the rest of the show. 👑 Uncrowned Gem of the Night 👑 I am so wildly impressed and satisfied with the levels of creativity we saw in the opening match on this "Raw." This is what happens when Triple H tries. We get the Uncrowned Gem of the Night, this time in the form of AJ Styles and The Kabuki Warriors vs. The Judgement Day's Dominick Mysterio, Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez. Mixed tag-team matches are always somewhat of a tricky arena to navigate, but this was a first — one male with two female teammates is something I can't recall. At least not recently. The dynamic of having the genders only able to go against each other made this a puzzle, but it was handled surprisingly well, and all built to Styles tagging in for a massive pop once he got his hands on Mysterio. After that there was even some creative trios offense to finish the match, with Styles absolutely launching Kairi Sane over the ropes into Rodriguez. He followed it with the Phenomenal Forearm on Mysterio to get the win. It was far from the best match you'll ever see due to its inherent restrictions, but even with those in place, it was pretty damn great. This was fun and worked so, so well. 😅 Miscalculation of the Night Taking Lyra Valkyria seriously with her big, silly shoes on was going to be impossible until she addressed them as her "Becky Stompers." I laughed. Overall, she delivered a good promo before it descended into silliness when Becky Lynch's music hit. Lynch never appeared, but instead just kind of bumbled around by the apron with a kendo stick before Valkyria used her Spidey Senses to detect Lynch and run the ropes, kicking her in the head. Then Lynch took a plethora of shots from the kendo stick without any defense, watching them all come her way. Listen, this was undeniably hilarious, but I'm not sure it was bad. It didn't make Valkyria look dumb — it was actually quite the opposite, because Lynch just kind of decided to hang out near the ring. It wasn't good, but I don't know. The feud has obviously been exhausted and the trilogy title match will be great. 👍 MONDAY NIGHT MONEY 👍 1. WWE opened "Raw" with another tribute to Hulk Hogan, as it was the first Monday show since the legend's passing. Rather than just repeating the video from Friday's "SmackDown," this was a different and equally great highlight montage. The Detroit crowd also seemed much more receptive with its cheers than Friday's Cleveland crowd was. 2. Sheamus defeated Grayson Waller with the Brogue Kick in a fine match. It wasn't quite a squash, but it wasn't that competitive either. Ultimately, it was a vehicle to continue the Sheamus vs. Rusev feud, as Rusev tried to cost Sheamus the win but failed before attacking post-match. If interference is going to happen, do it this way. There was no need for shenanigans to ruin that match of all matches, anyway. A Sheamus vs. Rusev best-of-seven works for me. 3. In Rollins' absence, it looks like Breakker is starting to take over in that leader role of the group. He suddenly isn't a barking bozo henchman anymore, and that's great to see. He already feels legit acting as a leader. 4. After the lackluster Sami Zayn vs. Karrion Kross rematch, the pair delivered a phenomenal backstage interview segment with Kross continuing to tease Zayn to show his true colors. These guys are so great together that it almost feels like they should have a neverending thing going similar to Rollins and Punk. Regardless, hopefully, we get an epic — brief — conclusion at SummerSlam. 5. I'm not really sure what to make of Bayley's admission of directionlessness. It's hard to imagine she won't play some part in Lynch vs. Valkyria, but if I didn't know better, this felt like a pre-departure promo. Bayley's emotion was palpable through the screen, leaving us with intrigue about what's next. 6. Stephanie Vaquer hit the SVB on Chelsea Green (with The Secret Hervice and Naomi) to get the win for her team, including Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky and Nikki Bella. This was essentially an all-stars vs. the champion and modern-day J.O.B. Squad match. There was zero chance of Naomi's team winning, but an easy element to play off of would've been the fact that Ripley, Sky and Vaquer are all enemies within the same title scene. It didn't matter, though. The match was surprisingly good and had some great spots, like Piper Niven taking out Sky and Bella after doing Sky's taunt. That led to her facing off with Ripley before the finish. More than anything, this was yet another big Vaquer showcase, as her hot tag led to her taking out all four of her opponents. She's being set up so perfectly as a future long-reigning champion. It doesn't matter who comes out of SummerSlam as the Women's World Champion; the winner is just keeping that belt warm until Clash In Paris. I'm thoroughly convinced. One little closer note, it was nice to see Naomi not act like a typical coward champion when she started the match against Ripley. 🤷 IT HAPPENED 🤷 1. The Judgment Day defended their World Tag Team titles against LWO. It was a stellar match, as expected, but was way more overbooked than anticipated and unnecessary. El Grande "Amerikaiser" ran to the ring purely to get into it with Dragon Lee before another masked man cost LWO the match. As much as I love Ludwig Kaiser, Chad Gable's injury really dampened the silly nature of the Americano character, and it's just "meh" with Kaiser under the mask. It doesn't help that he could be doing better things as himself. 2. Gunther and CM Punk had another promo battle. Before it started, I couldn't help but think about how awfully booked Gunther has been since WrestleMania 41. He doesn't even wrestle on "Raw" anymore. Anyway, the promo battle was good and intense, but something stuck out that didn't quite land. Punk essentially ripped off Eddie Guerrero's classic "addicted" promo on Brock Lesnar. It didn't work mostly because of where the two men were in their careers at the time of their deliveries. Guerrero had yet to be a world champion, whereas Punk has literally been there and done that. He doesn't need to be a champion at all, and his current run has proven that, yet that's what he declared in the face of Gunther. 👑 "SmackDown" is getting the short end of the booking stick lately because "Raw" seems to have more of the consistent goods, and this show was no exception. I give this "Raw" a Crown score of: 9/10. 👑

WWE RAW: 10-Bell Salute To Hulk Hogan And Jey Uso Tops Bronson Reed In Chaotic Main Event
Last Updated: Here are the major highlights from the latest episode of Monday Night RAW. In the latest offering of Monday Night RAW, held at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit before the SummerSlam, WWE fans joined in for an emotional tribute to the legendary Hulk Hogan, a main event bout between Jey Uso and Bronson Reed and other captivating tussles in the ring. Here's how this episode of WWE Raw panned out. Hulk Hogan Tribute, Nick Hogan Standing Ovation A packed audience at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit paid a fitting tribute to the WWE legend Hulk Hogan, who died last week at the age of 71 following a cardiac arrest. The legendary wrestler, renowned for his flamboyant appearance and imposing physique, enjoyed a massive following and stardom in the 80s and 90s. The WWE invited Hogan's son Nick Hogan to the stage, with fans offering a standing ovation to his late father and their favourite WWE great. A 10-bell salute was provided to Hogan at the beginning of the show as a mark of gratitude from everyone. Main Event: Jey Uso vs Bronson Reed; Roman Reigns Arrive The main event clash for this week's Monday Night Raw saw Jey Uso and Bronson Reed stand at loggerheads. The two wrestlers gave each other a hard time in an intense battle, featuring heavy moves that certainly took a toll on them. However, Uso eventually came out on top thanks to a disqualification following an interruption from Bron Breakker, who tried to spear Uso and support his longstanding ring partner. Moments later, Roman Reigns arrived and attempted a late save. But Breakker and Reed put the Reigns-Uso duo down with a double spear in chaotic scenes. Eight-Woman Tag Team Match Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, Stephanie Vaquer and Nikki Bella combined against Naomi, Chelsea Green, Piper Niven and Alba Fyre in a rare Eight-Team Tag Team face-off where fortunes shifted back and forth after Nikki Bella took a beating to start before she joined hands with Iyo Sky to execute Iyo's signature taunt. Both of them were later taken down by Piper Niven. Ultimately, however, Vaquer won the exciting match after hitting an SVB on Chelsea Green for the decisive moment. AJ Styles and Kabuki Warriors vs Judgement Day In a mixed tag team match, Aj Styles, Asuka and Kairi Sane took on Dominik Mysterio, Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. The match captured the fans' imagination with the two teams refusing to give up ground. But in the dying moments, Styles executed a Phenomenal Forearm for her team's victory, having launched Kairi Sane into Rodriguez. Sheamus defeated Grayson Waller despite having to encounter a sudden interference from Rusev, who wasn't the one to take the result lightly, as he persisted with attacking Sheamus after teaming up with Shillelagh. Rusev rained on Sheamus' moment of triumph and set up what many are anticipating to be a 'Shillelagh on a Pole" match. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
