-At the beginning of the show, I watched the crowd and RAWbot pointed out Long Island. The music of Seth Rollins sounded when he entered, full of conceited vitality and a red fur coat. The lower third of Raw/chryon looks more stylish and updated (maybe I just noticed tonight). Jimmy Smith and Corey Graves hyped Big E vs. Kevin Owens in a non-championship game, and Byron Saxton hyped RK-Bro vs. The Dirty Dawgs in a championship game. Smith then said that Damian Prested will defend the American Championship in the game with the Apollo Crew. Graves then hyped Edge's return, which caused a sensation.

When Smith replayed Rollins’ attack on Fenbalol last week before the game, Rollins giggled in the ring, danced to his music, cancelled the game and rescheduled it to tonight. Rollins said after last week that "you" might think I'm in a bad mood, but he is Seth Frakin Rollins, and no one can disappoint him. He said he was in such a good mood tonight for a very special reason, and sang "I have a secret". He said he had breaking news and asked fans if they wanted to hear the news. He asked for drumming (audience participation!): On day 1, this was the WWE Championship game between Big E and Seth Rollins.

He said that the first day is a very appropriate name because it will be the first day of the new year, a new era, in his next championship reign, a reign that will define Monday night and the future of this business, because He is a visionary, a revolutionary, Seth Freakin' Rollins. He giggled a few more times, but Ballor's music annoyed him.

Balor looked serious when he came in, but he still made his entrance and took a photo with the crowd. Rollins beckoned to him. Balor rushed in and hugged Rollins, then sent him outside. He hit the forearm of the flight and sent the two into the timekeeper area. Then he threw Rollins onto the broadcast station. He threw Rollins back into the circle, but Rollins responded with the rope in the middle. Suddenly, Balor encountered a slingshot and grabbed the steel steps. Balor pinned Rollins with the steps, then rolled him in. The referee checked Rollins, who told the referee to ring the bell.

(1) SETH ROLLINS VS. FINN BALOR – Singles matches

Balor immediately kicked the shotgun directly into the corner, and then climbed onto Coup de Grace. Rollins rolled outside, so Balor instead hit a header. They chopped it off. [C]

When they returned, Balor hit the Float DDT with the counter and counted twice. Balor kicked Rollins in the internal organs and stomped his feet along the rope. Rollins hung Ballor on the top, but Ballor rolled away from the springboard knee. Ballor kicked to the head and climbed to the top, but Rawlins took out Ballor's leg and placed him on it. Rollins wanted to find a super complex, but Ballor pushed him away. Rollins had just ran back and hit a super complex into the Falcon Arrow, but Ballor was kicked out before three.

Saxton pointed out that it has been six years since Ballor defeated Rollins to become the world champion. Rollins tried a top rope leap, but Ballor raised his knees, accustomed to hitting twice with the cradle. Then he stepped and jumped again and again twice. He chose a slingshot, but Rollins counterattacked and hit one of his own, followed by a super kick, two counts. Rollins leaned on Balor's back and hit the back of the neck with his forearm. Rollins then looked around the crowd, and then was about to start trampling. Balor hit a slingshot as a counterattack, followed by a shotgun airdrop. He climbed up, but Rollins stayed away from Coup de Grace. Balor dodged a heavy punch and counted twice. Both hit the forearm at the same time to cause the other to fall.

Then they tee off each other in the middle of the ring. Rollins hit a rolling elbow, but Ballor hit an overhead kick. Rollins hit an enziguri, but Balor avoided the torn rope knee. Rollins poked Ballor in the eye out of the referee's sight, then hit the back of the neck with a rolling forearm. He laid the foundation for a draw victory.

Winner: Seth Rollins 8:43 (stomping)

(Hazelwood’s view: This is how I would like to see Balor enter: no promotional video, no waiting bell, no lock, just attacking Rollins. I have a little bit of how Rollins can bounce back after being hit by the steps Sophistry, but you can also explain that, unlike Ballor, Rollins was not attacked from behind, nor was he hit in the head by the steps. The game was very good, and the mentality was very good. The two people were familiar with each other. Keep reversing. I would prefer a clean ending, like I do in most races, but it makes sense to fit Rollins’ character here and protect Ballor to some extent .)

-They switched to last week's replay, Becky Lynch reprimanded Liv Morgan behind his back and shed tears, and finally Morgan slapped Lynch in the face severely. When Lynch recovered, Morgan looked like he was venting. Lynch's music was very popular in "Big Time Becks", and she wore a lavender fur coat to shame her husband. She raised her title when she entered, and the crowd didn't want to boo her at all. Smith hyped the contract between Lynch and Morgan because they were going to break up. [C]

-When Austin Theory knocked on the door and came in, they took Vince McMahon back to his office (red upholstered wall). McMahon said that when people asked him how he was doing, he was annoying because no one really cared about him. He said he had some kind of syndrome, ingrown toenails, and something I missed. He said that what was impressive was Theory's strategy last week. Theory began to speak, but the truck cut to a replay of last week's events. They reduced their time, and McMahon told Theory that he would stay in his office to watch the entire show to see if there are surprises and if anyone expects to see their reaction unexpectedly. He said that if Theory stole his things, he would kill him. Theory just nodded.

Becky Lynch-Liv Morgan signed

They cut into the field where Lynch played Sonya Deville. Deville then introduced Lynch, who was well received and rarely (if any) booed. She said we can get "Little Livie" out now. Deville said in the introduction that she was a rebellious and enthusiastic Liv Morgan. Morgan entered the hall dressed in all black. She waved to a teenager who looked like she was beckoned by the goddess. Lynch sat in the chair, smiling when Morgan came in.

Lynch said this is Morgan’s first contract, and you are welcome to do so. She said she also welcomes the fire in the cheap shot last week. She said she had to admit that Morgan had absolute rights. Lynch said but what happened then? She held it back; one punch was not enough to defeat Lynch. She asked Morgan if he would stop herself during the show time as usual. I think Lynch called Deville "Tonia" and then he said that the game was next Monday night. Lynch said that when another town won the championship program, the crowd must be dissatisfied with it, and then booed the islanders loudly.

Morgan then said, ask her to shut up once, okay? Morgan signed the contract and said it was because she hadn't flinched. She said she was very upset last week, but used her fists to guide her emotions instead of becoming a mess, just like Lynch was crying for the talent and survivor series. Then she said that she had prepared the footage provided by the WWE social media team. They replayed a tearful post-match interview with Lynch. When Lynch was furious, JPMorgan laughed. Morgan said who knew Big Time Becks cried like a baby.

She said Lynch was the reason why she had no friends, just as her big contract was the reason why Morgan's friends were no longer here. She said she learned from all the mistakes Lynch made in the past. She said that Lynch was not the person she had admired, nor was it the Morgan that Lynch left behind. Morgan said that if that punch didn't let her know, maybe it would. Deville stopped her because Lynch said it was pure emotion after a big game and Morgan didn't know anything about it. Lynch said that she participated in the game between Lynch and Liv tonight. Deville then showed the team: Lynch, Carmella, Queen Zelina, Doudrop and Tamina against Morgan, Naomi and other faces I didn't have a chance to register. Morgan accepted.

(Hazelwood's view: Hey, signing a contract, things did not completely break down, no one passed a table! Long live! That was Morgan’s best promotion, but the threshold is not very high. Even in good times, there are feelings The part that is too scripted, especially her untimely laugh in the sentence. This is just Wade Keller’s smirk criticizing Rollins and Sasha Banks in the past. However, in general, I think Morgan is positive here. There are more factors than negative factors, especially because this is indeed the first time she has shown a positive attitude on the microphone in this discord. This is what she desperately needs. The game next week may show that they think this discord. Can last until the first day, I agree.)

-Smith then turned to a video that looked back at RK-Bro's activities last week, in which Riddle dressed up as Orton and used RKO to win the game against Dolph Ziggler. Then Orton hit the Derek brothers on Robert Rudd. They cut to the back of Riddle's horse and asked where Orton's shorts were. He thinks Orton will dress up like he did last week. Orton asked him why he did this. Riddle said they were Crazy Friday last week and reviewed what happened last week. He said it was like looking in a mirror. Orton interrupted him and said that they would defend his title, so if he thought Orton would ride his scooter barefoot to the ring, then he would be more brain-dead than he thought.

Orton said he appreciates Riddle's efforts, but they don't need to be each other. He said that they need to be ruthless and ten steps ahead of their competitors. Riddle said he understood and begged Orton to close his eyes. Then Riddle wore a golden wig for Orton, which was terrible. Orton said Riddle had two seconds to get rid of it. Riddle quickly did it, and Orton said not to do it again. Riddle said, "I'm sorry Randy." They entered the door. They cut in to break the hype about the doubles championship. [C]

-They came back with The Dirty Dawgs and just finished their entry to the championship game. While their music was still playing, Mike Rome introduced it from the circus.

(2) RK-BRO vs. THE DIRTY DAWGS (Robert Roode & Dolph Ziggler)-Tag Team Championship

As the bell rang, Roode & Ziggler attacked the faces of two people from behind, sent Orton outside, and hit Riddle's double double team/suplex, earning two counts. Rudd marked Ziegler, they hit the catapult DDT and counted the rope twice. Ziegler locked his body with scissors, then locked his head sideways, but Riddle tried to resist. Rudd distracted the referee and asked Ziegler to use his hair to pull Riddle onto the mat. He wanted to splash in the corner, but Riddle moved.

Riddle got up, but Ziegler caught him, just to get Riddle to kick and mark Orton. Orton killed Ziegler and Rudd, and then Ziegler gave a violent blow. He pushed Ziegler to the side of his apron, looking for his drape DDT, but Rudd caught his partner and saved him. Ziegler then dragged Orton outside, but Orton took both of them away. He slammed Ziggler face forward into the announcement stage, but Ziggler flipped over from the abdomen on the announcement stage and hit a super kick. Rudd caught Riddle when he flew in, and then hit Orton's belly back-to-back on Riddle Radio. They chopped it off. [C]

When they returned, Ziegler defeated Orton in a neutral corner. Rudd marked in, and he whipped Ziegler into the corner, splashed all over Orton, and then hit a two-pointer in the neck. Rudd did some push-ups while mocking Auden. Then he locked Orton with the back chin lock, which was Orton's favorite action. "Randy!" The carol began, and he stood up, but Orton dragged him back. About 30 seconds later, Orton regained his footing and finally hit a back-to-back counterattack. He made a label.

Ziegler also scored inside, but Riddle hit the final flash and then Rudd's header. He hit Ziegler in the corner with a running forearm, and then a detonator. He did the same thing to Rudd, then beat two people with Broton. He interrupted it with a PK against Ziggler, and then used a dangling DDT on Roode when Orton nodded. Riddle was labeled Orton, and both completed the RKO pounds. Both were blocked. Roode sent Riddle over, but Ziggler blocked RKO and hit Zig Zag to get close to two points.

As Ziggle waited for the super kick, the crowd chanted for Orton. Orton caught it, then rolled Ziegler over. When Ziegler went to Orton, Orton hit RKO. When Orton won, Riddle caught Rudd.

Winner: RK-Bro maintained the doubles championship at 10:27 (RKO)

-They cut to the back of Rollins' walk and ran into Owens who was smiling. Rollins asked what he wanted. Owens used the victory and championship game to be an important night for Rollins. He said he also has big news. Owens said that if Adam Pearce tells him if he can beat Big E tonight, he will enter the championship on the first day. Rollins smiled and said it was good, but Owens said it was no joke. Rollins said Owens was lying, but Rollins said that was not the case. Owens said to ask Pierce, "He is a bald." Rollins said he would ask Pierce because Owens is a liar.

-Edge's music caused a sensation in the crowd. Before posing and making fireworks, he greeted the fans at the entrance. They chopped it off. [C]

-When Rollins came in to ask Owens, they cut into Pierce from behind. Pierce asked what Owens was talking about. Rollins said Pierce told him that if he won, Owens would join. Rollins said he should know everyone who didn't say it from his mouth. Pierce said this never happened. Deville then came in and asked what it was about. Pierce said Owens lied, but Deville said it was not a bad idea.

Edge said this is the best job in the world because the crowd continues their flattery. He said yes, he is back, and the last time we saw his ugly cup was against Rollins in the Hell Cell, and now Rollins is the number one contender. Edge said Rollins deserved it, even if he didn't want to say it, because Rollins operated on another level. Edge said that was another story, because he was on Strong Island, on Raw, and had a whole new set of opponents. He named AJ Styles, Owens, Balor, Priest, E. He said it was really exciting. Miz's music is interrupted...Yes.

Miz and Maryse return with matching Miz & Mrs. equipment. Edge just watched, confused. They cut to the retrospective video of his time dancing with the stars, because I have never watched an episode of this show, and I can't tell you his results. When the cameras are reduced, they all have microphones when they enter the ring. Mitz looked around and said that they gave you a big reward, a big press release about coming back. Did he say Edge is gone, it's been a month? He asked Edge if his career was like this.

He also stated that he has always emphasized WWE on all platforms. Miz said that when he was injured, he would walk around in a wheelchair, and if he asked for leave, it was to show the world what it means to be a WWE superstar. He said that what annoyed him the most was that one of the greatest female superstars in the company's history was his wife's return (his wording was very polite, but I think he meant there was no press release about her). He asked if he was not even in Edge's focus. Edge said he thinks The Miz still paints himself blue and dances like an elf.

Maryse said The Miz was the best dancer in the entire show, but Edge said he was ranked ninth? Miz said his dance was revolutionary, but the only reason he won the ninth place was because fans forgot to vote for him. He said that JoJo Siwa has a more loyal fan base (yes, nonsense). Edge said they wanted to complain because he got a big reward, but they could have gone to Pearce and Deville, and said they would not go out until they got what they wanted. Edge said this was because their agenda was to interrupt him, because it put The Miz on the main event screen.

He said he could take simple methods, such as asking the audience to say "Miz sucks" when they count to three. He did so, and the crowd agreed loudly. A light "Miz Sucks!" The chant began. Miz said that he is a superstar who rebelled against the era and deserves respect. He said that six months ago, he was a WWE champion, but when was the last time Edge won a Grand Slam? The Miz said that when The Miz main event played against John Cena, it was when Edge opened. He said this time, Edge should stay at home all the time.

Edge said, so they came out and verbally attacked him, dancing with a body that could no longer hang, and Edge said they were right; he couldn't do it anymore. He said that the windows were a bit small. He said that he was the person in the locker room who wanted to stand opposite to test their skills because they respected each other. Miz didn't know anything about it because he always complained. He said that Mizi needs to pat his back. Edge agreed, saying that The Miz was standing on the ring opposite Tough Enough, and he wrote notes on beating Cena in his hand. He said that in The Miz other shows, someone just said his name to get a reaction.

He said that he built an empire and surpassed anyone he could or wanted, except The Miz. He said that The Miz believed and realized it, but the difference was that Edge tried his best to get it back, while The Miz used it to prepare for his next effort and let his partner be fired. He said The Miz wanted to be respected, but he won the respect. He said they can do it now and dare to let The Miz jump down. Miz took off his gear and said they wanted to watch them dance? He flatly refused, threw the microphone away, and walked away with his wife, Edge looking confused.

-Smith turned to The Street Profits vs. Styles & Omos game last week. At the end of the game, Baby Face used a fire extinguisher to escape from the enemy, even though it was a DQ loss. When Sarah Shreber approached, they cut to the back. Stiles has a shadow, Omos guides him. She asked insight, did he say this is some kind of pathological joke? He said he wore those glasses because he couldn't see. He pointed to Omos, but Omos grabbed his hand and pointed in the right direction. Stiles said the "smokers" sprayed his eyes, saying they really gave him the smoke in his eyes. He said it did not matter, because where there is smoke, there is fire. They walked away, and Omos helped Styles.

-The music of The Street Profits plays because there is no black bag with a fire extinguisher at the entrance. They chopped it off. [C]

(Hazelwood’s view: The promotional clip is at least five minutes long. It did achieve its goal. This is not the first time The Miz has used its own return to interrupt the return. I think this means Edge’s first time for Raw Will the draw be with The Miz? Hey, in the worst case, this will be a decent game to keep Edge relatively safe.)

-They came back with Alpha Academy. When they entered, Stiles' music rang under the guidance of Omos. Street profits mock the blind.

(3) THE STREET PROFITS (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) vs. ALPHA ACADEMY (Chad Gable & Otis) – Doubles match

Otis and Ford started the game when Otis had the advantage, but they kept showing Styles that he was on his way to the circus and knew what to do. Gable marked and hit a big monkey flip, then Otis splashed a broken lid. Gable asked Ford to lock it with a bow and arrow, but Ford rolled onto the pin. Ford wanted to use a slingshot, but Gable turned it into the Northern Lights Bridge and calculated it twice. Otis joins, but Ford rushes out of the corner. Gable marked and prevented the marking, but Ford rolled over and marked Dawkins.

Dawkins hit a large complex on Gable and then took out Otis before hitting The Silencer on Gable. The crowd was tepid when he hit the spinning splash and spine destroyer in the corner. Ford participated in the race, but Alha College eliminated Dawkins outside. Ford then flipped over to the two of them. Ford climbed up, but Styles suddenly climbed onto the tarmac. Ford kicked him away, then pushed Gable away. He hit the breaststroke for victory. After the game, Styles watched Omos trying to explain. Omos looked angry but understood.

Winner: 3:14 street profit (frogsplash)

-They cut to the back because McMahon asked about the theory about style. McMahon said it was too obvious, and then told Theory that he needed to expect surprises. He told Theory to look at him while talking to him. What will all this eventually become?

-The announcer cut to last week, Dana Brooke became the new 24/7 champion. They showed Brooke talking to Reggie behind his back.

-Priest's music plays because he participated in the championship fight against Cruise. They chopped it off. [C]

-When Owens sat in the back, they came back. Rollins approached, giggling and calling him a liar, saying that he had talked with Pierce. He began to say that the liar liar's pants were on fire. Owens said he didn't lie, he didn't know what to tell him, but if he won tonight, he would get extra points. Rollins said yes, of course, when Owens walked away, he giggled.

-While the priest waited, they cut back the ring. When Crews and Azeez entered, as the AR lion statue roared and moved, his music played. Rome introduced it again when entering the venue, not a formal introduction.

(4) DAMIAN PRIEST (c) vs. APOLLO CREWS (w/Commander Azeez)-American Championship

When Cruise slammed the priest, they circled and locked. They reset, Priest pulled his arm violently, and locked it with his arm. Cruise stood up and moved the priest into the rope with his hair. He hit the priest several times, but ate a jumping shoulder shovel after running the rope. The staff was dispatched, followed by the priest. Aziz blocked his way, causing Cruise to hit the jumping knee from his apron. They switched to another break time. [C]

The Crews hit his belly to the back suplex to move as a powerful bomb, and then performed two standing moonsaults when they returned. He threw a fist at the priest on one knee, but the priest blocked the third and hit one of his big right hands. He played a combination, then a jumping jump kick, and then a rope assisted knee jump to the chest for two counts. The priest was then hit by an enziguri, but he used his momentum to hit a large clothesline. Priest hit the suspense DDT described by Graves twice. The Crews rolled outside, and Azeez caught him to avoid Priest's jump. The priest walked outside and made a somersault on the steps, but he barely rolled. When he climbed to the top of the mountain, Azeez pulled him down. The referee didn't see it, but he expelled Azeez. The priest then stood up with an angry expression (they zoomed in). Priest kicked a big tee kick to Crews and then beat him in the corner. He kicked and kicked Cruise onto the tarmac. Then hit the southern sky from the apron to the ring. He hit the liquidation, that's it.

Winner: Damian Priest 8:26 (The Reckoning) to keep the American championship

-When Rollins came in, Pierce and Deville talked about Owens behind the scenes and still said he would be triple threatened, saying it was unhealthy and not looking good. Pierce said this increased the stakes, and Deville thought it was a good idea, so they confirmed it. Rollins broke out and said Pierce lied to him, but Pierce said Owens lied to him. Rollins said Owens told him the truth and shouted: "What happened?!"

-The Mysterio's music became a hit when they entered. They cut in to break the doubles match with Cedric Alexander and Sheldon Benjamin. [C]

(Hazelwood's opinion: Well, considering the speed with which Azeez was defeated after his expulsion and the zero-scoring offense, I don't think Crews will perform well without Azeez in the circus. It is certainly correct to keep Priest strong. Choice. And I don’t want to think that he will win the Rumble game as I predicted in August. He may still have an outstanding performance and cement his position as a major event in the future. I do think that his shift in anger and his expression It's a bit too funny, but the crowd seems to like it very much, and it seems to work for the role of the priest.)

(5) THE MYSTERIOS (Rey & Dominik) vs. THE HURT BUSINESS (Cedric Alexander & Shelton Benjamin) – Doubles match

When they returned with Dominic and Benjamin, they started the game. Benjamin pulled him down, but Dominic regained his footing, dragging his arms and jumping from above. Benjamin grabbed him with his knees, then threw him back on his knees. He marked Alexander, hit a suplex, and then Alexander hit a jumping outpost, but was too close to the rope to cover. Dominic tried an internal cradle, but Alexander caught him and then slammed.

Benjamin marked and performed abdominal back-to-back, but Dominic rolled out and hit the super kick. He marked his father, he hit a sitting sentry, and then turned the scissors head towards Benjamin. Benjamin elbowed the internal organs and marked Alexander, who performed a jumping sunset flip. The mysterious guest rolled over and kicked. He took out Benjamin, and then used a wheelbarrow to push Alexander into the rope. Dominic did the same thing, and then they doubled 619. Rey hit Benjamin's sitting position outside, because Dominic hit Alexander's perfect breaststroke and won. He got height.

Winner: 3:02 The Mystic (frogsplash)

-Smith switched to playing a video review of the ten women's doubles matches that were signed and announced earlier. The other faces are not Naomi, but Bianca Belair, Brooke, Nikki ASH and Rhea Ripley. When Morgan led her entire team out, her music was very popular and Brooke held up the 24/7 championship. They chopped it off. [C]

-They came back with a Smackdown Breakdown review video, highlighting Sasha Banks and Naomi's game against Shayna Baszler and Natalya, Naomi's score, Charlotte Flair and Toni Storm's interaction with Pies facing Storm, Roman Reigns talks#see Sami Zayn The first contender to win the Royal War, Kayla Braxton interrupted her interview with Zayn, announced the lifting of Brock Lesnar's suspension and announced that he would return on Friday's show.

-When they replayed the doubles title won by Carmella and Queen Zelina last week, they cut back to the ring where those faces were waiting and danced (except Ripley). When the women's champion led her team with doubles champion Doudrop and Tamina, Lynch's music was very popular. The champions kept their titles. Saxton wanted to know whether Lynch could become an effective leader of her team, and Graves responded with a stroke.

(6) TEAM LIV (Liv Morgan & Bianca Belair & Dana Brooke & Nikki ASH & Rhea Ripley) vs. TEAM BECKS (Becky Lynch & Carmella & Queen Zelina & Doudrop & Tamina)-Ten women's doubles match

The referee rang the bell, and all the women were in the ring. Carmela went out and put on her mask, because her face curled into a ball, the game was planned. Lynch told Heel that they would follow her lead. The captains started the game, Morgan immediately hit with his big right hand, and then kicked the ball. She hit Lynch with her leg raised in the corner, and then hit a bulldog. Lynch avoided the splash in the corner and stomped towards Morgan. Lynch mocked their faces, and then kicked a whirling kick in the internal organs. She marked Carmela.

Morgan took the bridge to dodge the clothesline, rolled up Carmela and counted. Carmela grabbed Morgan's head, bumped her against the mat, and then mocked Ripley for losing the title. She asked Ripley to join, then screamed and ran away, joining in Zelina. Zelina enters and looks for the crucifix, and then the sunset flips, but is labeled Carmella, the latter is labeled Lynch, the latter is labeled Doudrop, and the latter is labeled Tamina. Five high heels surrounded Ripley and chased her because their faces had been in the corner. Graves described this as "bad leadership."

Tamina took it to Ripley and knocked her down with a big head. Tamina hit the back of the chin and sprained Ripley's head. These faces need to applaud and cheer, but they are not many. Tamina went to buy Samoan clothes, but Ripley slipped out and hit a large clothesline. She tagged ASH, who tagged Brooked, and who tagged Belair. They did the same thing, and Belair raised Tamina for a KOD. Although Tamina hit the canvas hard, their faces came in and saved Tamina. They chopped it off. [C]

Doudrop controlled the ASH, before tightening the Cobra Clutch variant, slamming and elbow falling. ASH fought back with a body shot, but Doudrop hit the short-arm clothesline. ASH tried to fight back, but Doudrop shot her down. She took ASH to their corner, and Lynch marked it in. Doudrop hit the body and slammed, then Lynch hit the rapid leg droop and elbow droop. She tried to lower her leg from the rope, but Ash moved. Carmella marked and prevented the marking.

She placed ASH in a neutral corner and hit a lot of back elbows. ASH fought back, but Carmella only beat her twice. She applied a rear chinlock. The crowd seemed to be dead. ASH hit a breach and rolled to Ripley. Ripley hit a large clothesline, but Carmela looked hurt and slowly got up. The referee checked her, but Ripley hit her face to face. Ripley then took out other high heels. Carmela chased Ripley, but Ripley hit some hollow knees.

Carmela escaped an airdrop from Ripley and locked the silent code, but it was broken by Brook. Then it became the part of "everyone making big moves one by one", ending with Lynch hitting an inverted DDT on Lynch. Before looking for Carmela's rapids, Ripley re-entered and threw Lynch outside. Carmela slipped out, took out her knee, and hit a super kick as they cut in, counting twice. [C]

Brook and Tamina are in the ring, but Brook is in the wrong corner. She tried to resist, but Tamina grabbed her. Brook finally made a mark to Morgan, and Morgan immediately caught up with the corner kick. Then she brought it to Tamina with a combination ending in enziguri, but when Morgan went to find Thesz Press, Tamina just fell her down. She hit the jumping knees, but Lynch broke the pin. Lynch was sent outside, but Ash hit a messenger bag from his apron. She turned directly and walked into Du Zhuopu. Brooke took out Dulop, and Ripley beat him hard.

Zelena found a super complex outside, but in the end, she threw Brooke onto the other four faces. Morgan in the ring used Enzguri to kill Carmela, and then Zelina. She turned right into Tamina's super kick, counting twice. Morgan slipped out of the Samoan fall, sent Tamina into the rope, and hit her Forgotten Terminator to win.

After the game, they all fought, and things fell apart. Belair hit a huge spine destroyer on Doudrop. Morgan countered Manhandle Slam, launching and hitting Lynch's Oblivion to end the segment. When the announcer hyped the championship game next week, her partner entered the ring and took a photo with her.

Winner: Team Liv at 19:36 (Oblivion)

-They cut to the back because McMahon reminded Theory to look at him while they were talking. He asked whether the Bakers team expected this, and McMahon said you must anticipate the surprise. He yelled at the theory because he was watching the door again.

-When he rubbed Kevin Patrick with a handkerchief, they showed E in the back. They hyped the E-Owens game and added the rules for the next game as they cut in. [C]

(Hazelwood’s opinion: This is likely to be the longest game of the night, depending on how the next 30 minutes happen. This is a formulaic game, although Morgan did get an overwhelming victory and used her terminator Lynch was arranged, but the most sloppy moments of the game appeared to be with her. She walked to the rope and pulled them to Doudrop prematurely. The latter just followed through the sequence, and Morgan and Tamina Most of the time together is awkward in timing. If Lynch can’t pull at least one three-star game Morgan out of it, then it’s time for Morgan’s hype to rest. Next week will be it; either succeed or fail.)

-They are back with the same episode aired for Veer Mahaan in the past few weeks, which shows many of the released John Morrison and Jaxson Ryker. '

-The announcer gave a very good publicity to Bobby Leslie's dominance. It shows him exercising, posing, and showing photos and footage of him participating in amateur wrestling when he was young. He is already very thin, but still muscular. He discussed his time in the army and the experience of winning the silver medal in the military world championships. They showed his first WWE competition. He hit the powerful suplex, won the American championship, the ECW championship, and his return as an "all-around" WWE champion.

(Hazelwood's point of view: Damn good video, damn good.)

-Patrick interviewed E backstage and asked about his game with Owens and the possibility of Owens joining the game on January 1. Patrick asked if this would increase any pressure. E said no, walked away, then came back, said he was afraid of not having Kevins (staring at Patrick), and then admitted that the triple threat made him harder to keep. He said he will get rid of Owens from the scourge of duplicity tonight and keep his title on January 1. He said you could feel the sucka and walked away.

-The music plays when Owens enters the arena. They broke with The Street Profits' hype about WWEshop.com's Cyber ​​Monday promotion. [C]

-They came back with the Raw Talk promos of Morgan, Priest and The Mysterios.

-McMahon asked the theory if he had fun tonight, and the theory said he learned a lot. The theory says you have to anticipate the unexpected. McMahon said he understood, stood up and shook hands with him, then took the theory back to his seat. He sat down and said that you have a lot to learn. what!

-E has entered a pandemic. He rushed to the ring confidently. Owens even laid down the ropes for the WWE Championship. Of course, Rollins' music is very popular, and he will observe it at the circus. He appeared in a more dignified but still quirky outfit and tone, and it seemed (to him) that Owens' boldness could be added.

(7) BIG E (c) vs. KEVIN OWENS-If Owens wins, he will be added to Day 1 of the Big E vs. Seth Rollins WWE Championship

E passed the ball to Owens with a punch from the bottom corner and started the game, but Owens gained the advantage with a knee kick and his elbow. When Rollins joined the comment, E hit a big back elbow. E slammed Owens in the corner again, but Owens chose the stunner. E counterattack pushed him out of the ring, and then hit him on a barricade. When Rollins cheered for E, E then bumped Owens' face onto the announcement stage.

Back on the ring, E slammed Owens on the back, but Owens rolled him up with a boy and counted two. Then he kicked E and hit a cutting board. He tried to anger the crowd, then hit the knee with an elbow, locked the leg lock and punched in the knee area. He laughed at the crowd, but they didn't really respond. E fought with his fists, but Owens hit a leg DDT, and even hit the quick sentry in the calf to make a count.

Owens punched E on the forehead, but E energized and started to work. However, Owens got off the rope with a kick and Knee Nziguri, and counted twice. Owens looked for the number four, but E kicked him out of the ring. Rollins chanted "Go Big E!" on Owens' face, so Owens hit Rollins hard and the headset flew. Rollins ran to the apron, but said he was too smart to listen to Owens' nonsense and did not take the bait.

Owens turned around and hit E with a short-arm clothesline. He climbed to the top, but E hit him and Owens climbed down again. E pressed Owens on the apron, and then he jumped up and hit the apron's chest. When Owens rolled out of the announcement stage, he rolled back again. E removed the top of the stairs, but he turned right and hit Owens, hitting DDT on the flat steel stairs. They chopped it off. [C]

When they returned, Owens secured E in the grounded side headlock. E stood up, but Owens fought back with a slash. He got off the rope just to let E put down a big clothesline. When E approaches, Owens grabs and throws E into the turnbuckle in the middle, regaining the advantage. He hit a big slash in the corner, the other then lifted E to the top of the rope. Graves said Rollins would have 33.3. The probability percentage of a triple threat, Rollins said, "just like that."

E resisted the superplex, but after Owens hit the damaged left knee with his fist, he hit twice from the second rope. When the fans started a little "Big E!" chant. E hit a few body shots, then the abdomen on the top of the head to the abdomen, then another one, and then the traditional third. Before starting to jump, he spun on Owens, but Owens knelt on his knees.

Owens went to hit the whistle, but E raised his knee. This time, he hit his big splash, but only twice. E began to applaud, preparing for The Big Ending, but Owens timed E and then kicked him in the face. Owens sat on his apron, and when E went to get the spear, he raised his knees. Then he hit his corner cannonball on E, counting twice. Owens taunted E and told him not to move, but they attacked each other until Owens ordered a super kick at two o'clock.

E appeared to be recovering in a corner, and then used his corner uranage to grab Owens when Owens rushed to the corner. E lifts Owens for The Big Ending, but Owens slides out and rolls E to count twice. Suddenly, Owens hit a pop-up sit-in powerful bomb, and Rawlins shouted: "NOOOOOOOOO!" He was hit as he moved. Owens rolled E to a position where it might be a bullfrog splash, but then he rushed towards Rollins and slammed him beside the circus.

Owens returned to the side of the apron and hung E on the top rope. Owens went to find the stunner, but E pushed him away. Owens hit a super kick, but E hit a big lasso. Rollins entered and attacked Owens, stomping towards him, triggering DQ. E asked what he was doing, and Rawlins kicked a super kick in his dress shoes, then stomped. Rome declared Owens the victory, and Rollins finally understood what he was doing. When Rollins pulled off his jack, kicked the rope, and started yelling, Owens reacted ecstatically. They showed graphics confirming the triple threat at the end of the show.

Winner: Kevin Owens will join the WWE Championship at 16:26 (DQ) on the first day

(Hazelwood's opinion: As you would expect from these two men, this is a great TV main event even considering all the pranks by Rawlins. You know they won’t be so soon after the Survivor Series. Let E lose the game, but an interference is still lacking. At least they gave Rollin a good reason to lose his cool and forget the rules of the game because he was attacked by Owens twice in the game. This whole night showed Owens’ cunning and wisdom, planted the seeds of triple threats on Rollins, and then he took it to Pierce, who fully blossomed under Deville’s blessing. It seems Owens His position in the WWE Championship is so prominent that he may re-sign with WWE. Once again, he has always been a good soldier in WWE, and may just play a role so that he can sign in other places as his The pinnacle of the game.)

Final thoughts: If you want a barometer of your thoughts on this show, just listen to the audience's reaction, or lack of reaction should I say. Except for Edge's music, there is really no unanimous response in the crowd, unless you think indifference is a response. This is not good. Don’t participate too much in the debate between WWE and AEW, because I think people ignore a lot of background factors in the discussion, but I have to say that New York is traditionally regarded as the backyard of WWE, Arthur Ashe’s AEW The crowd is hotter than the crowd tonight.

Morgan has some moments, but unfortunately, I'm not sure what revelatory performance she will have next week. I hope she succeeds, but I just don't see improvement. Crowd support can only make you go further in WWE. For another top champion, I would love to know how this triple threat works, but more importantly, how they can build that show with more than a month left; can they keep it fresh, or are we all Just to the point where we hope the game has happened?

For other things in the show, I think Edge’s return was wasted a little bit because of The Miz, although it is perfectly reasonable for him to be Edge’s first opponent because he can afford to lose and it makes no sense for his role (has Ironically, this does work). Priest is still strong, but just like the WWE Championship, where is the rest of Priest defending the title? For WWE, this will be the last month of 2021. Hopefully, as Rollins said, January 1 is indeed a new era and a new beginning.
