WWE Raw emanated from from the ThunderDome at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. In this go-home show, the red brand looked to address all the major matches set to take place before WrestleMania 37. The major focus was on WWE Champion Bobby Lashley and challenger Drew McIntyre. McIntyre defeated King Corbin in the main event of the show and engaged in a staredown with the champ. Before that, Lashley defeated former Hurt Business cohort Cedric Alexander in a dominant showing. Elsewhere on the show, the tension between Raw Women’s champion Asuka and challenger Rhea Ripley came to a head.

Here is a full rundown of what the latest episode of WWE Raw:

  • Drew McIntyre opened the show with a promo and before MVP and Bobby Lashley came out. The three engaged in a verbal duel before being interrupted by King Corbin. Corbin then promised to lay McIntyre out later in the night.
  • Xavier Woods of The New Day beat AJ Styles with a roll-up win. The match ended quickly due to Kofi Kingston using a live mic to distract Omos.
  • Braun Strowman cut a promo from inside a steel cage before Shane McMahon interrupted him. Thereafter a handicap match is booked, with Strowman taking on Jaxson Ryker and Elias. Strowman won by pinning both men.
  • Miz and John Morrison smear Bad Bunny’s car with paint and beat him down backstage. This led to the musician later cutting an angry promo. The singles match vs Miz is now a tag team match, with Morrison partnering Miz and Damian Priest tagging with Bad Bunny.
  • Asuka and Rhea Ripley tagged against women’s tag team champions Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax. However, the champs won when Ripley turned on Asuka and attacked her, leaving her to be pinned.
  • A pre-match promo sees Lashley promise to break Cedric Alexander. Alexander would submit to The Hurt Lock in their match.
  • Matt Riddle defeated Mustafa Ali.
  • McIntyre defeated Corbin. After the match, the two exchange looks as the show goes off the air.
