• The Kabuki Warriors def. Becky Lynch & Charlotte
• Drew McIntyre def. Sin Cara
• R-Truth versus the Singh Brothers goes to a no-contest
• Seth Rollins def. WALTER by disqualification

• Andrade def. Cedric Alexander

• The Viking Raiders def. South Wales Subculture
• Humberto Carillo, Randy Orton & Ricochet def. The O.C.

Raw Takeaways

Bayley strikes back! She has been the weakest-presented one of the three Women’s champs, so it is smart to have her get a measure of revenge on Raw.

The Lana-Rusev-Lashley angle now involves a pregnancy. Oof. All three of these stas deserve a coherent storyline and this is not it.

Rowan now has something in a cage with a sack over it that he brings to the ring. Remember when he was a savant after first breaking off from the Wyatt Family? They’re doing more weird stuff with him now.

The Raw Men’s Survivor Series team is stacked, but Randy Orton is totally going to RKO Ricochet again.
