Monday Night Raw this week opened with The Judgment Day, with Damian Priest who successfully defending his World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash. Priest addressed something that happened after the match, apologizing for losing his cool with his faction mates and expressing appreciation for them. They then announced Finn Balor as the winner of the King of the Ring tournament, with Drew McIntyre replaced by “Main Event” Jey Uso due to injury.

Hey @FinnBalor, say hello to your new first round opponent…

Finn Balor and Jey Uso started their match immediately following a commercial break. It was a good match by Raw’s standards, featuring good striking and a quick pace. Finn attempted his finisher from the top rope, but Jey countered with a spear, leading to a convincing false finish. Drew McIntyre made a menacing appearance at ringside, but Jey managed to hit a second spear to secure the win.

CM Punk made his way to the ring to speak, challenging Drew McIntyre to confront him and threatening to hold the show hostage until he appeared. Despite telling a lengthy story to fill time, Drew did not show up, and Punk ultimately signed off, stated that Drew fears him.

The Queen of the Ring tournament began with Iyo Sky facing Natalya. They had a decent back-and-forth match, with Dakota Kai assisting Iyo in securing the victory and advancing to the second round.

In another first-round match of the King of the Ring tournament, Ilya Dragunov faced Ricochet. The match had a faster pace than expected, with both competitors delivering high spots and fantastic reversals. Dragunov emerged victorious in one of the best matches on Raw in recent memory.

This match was SENSATIONAL.

Sheamus and Gunther met in the main event, delivering a hard-hitting match. Despite interference from Kaiser injuring Sheamus, Gunther secured the victory via submission. This match was another banger from the two, and from the first round of the King of the Ring.
