Oba Femi and IYO SKY punched their tickets to the finals of the 2026 WWE King and Queen of the Ring finals with victories on RAW. Femi defeated Dominik Mysterio. Sky overcame Raquel Rodriguez.
The Bloodline ganged up on LA Knight after Jey Uso wanted The Megastar to acknowledge him after advancing in King of the Ring. Jey also claimed he beat Knight without help one-on-one.
Thanks for the submission!
Charlotte Flair beat Roxanne Perez in a tune-up for her Queen of the Ring match on SmackDown. Some angles keep dragging on, while other decisions make little sense. WWE made the next four mistakes on RAW from Baltimore.
#4. Where are Seth Rollins and Joe Hendry?
Seth Rollins didn’t show up live on RAW. Instead, both he and Bron Breakker cut pre-taped promos, essentially agreeing to a steel cage match in the future. Rollins laid out the challenge, and Breakker later accepted.
Breakker then Speared Je’Von Evans during his match with Austin Theory. The Street Profits saved Evans from more damage, but why didn’t Rollins?
And speaking of stars who have mocked the Vision, where’s Joe Hendry? This would have been a perfect spot for his return. The entire segment was to set up a title match next week.
#3. Two teams get WWE title opportunities next week
Since RAW emanates from London next week, Paige and Brie Bella will defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. After some negotiating with Adam Pearce, Lyra Valkyria and Bayley will get a shot in London.
It’s nice to see the duo get featured, but both women lost in Queen of the Ring. Valkyria even unfortunately lost twice last week, falling to Sol Ruca on RAW. They traded wins with the Judgment Day in their last two tag team contests.
It’s not exactly winning a #1 Contender’s match, but instead a match for the sake of it. When it comes to the World Tag Team Titles, the Vision already beat the Street Profits.
Since they’re feuding, however, the two sides face off with the titles on the line next week after Angelo Dakwins returned. Having Montez Ford team with Rollins would make more sense since they’ve been battling the Vision over the last few weeks.
#2. Putting Rusev and Chad Gable against each other on RAW
Chad Gable became a fan favorite after unmasking at Noche De Los Grandes. He admitted his mistakes, and once he came back to RAW and SmackDown, he apologized and made amends to the Lucha stars he had mocked and offended.
His first match back was against Rusev. The Bulgarian Brute has been a stepping stone since his return to WWE last year. He lost to Je’Von Evans in his last singles match.
Despite grabbing Rey Mysterio’s mask last week, he’s been booked like a joke instead of the monster he should be. For that reason, both men needed a win. Putting them together on RAW was a mistake because one had to lose.
Had Gable faced a WWE star currently in limbo like Grayson Waller, a loss wouldn’t have hurt his momentum. Rusev could have then attacked Gable after the match and faced him next week. Instead, Gable won, and Rusev looks foolish yet again thanks to bookers.
#1. No punishments for Reigns/Fatu for attacking celebrity guest Eric Andre
WWE officials have fined several stars over the last few years, including Randy Orton, Bron Breakker, and others. They disobey directives from GMs, necessitating the need for punishment.
Orton routinely blasts officials, agents, and security with RKOs. Nick Aldis even suspended Drew McIntyre once for attacking Cody Rhodes. LA Knight has questioned Pearce’s motives with Roman Reigns back atop the mountain on RAW.
The Tribal Chief shook hands with actor and comedian Eric Andre as the Bloodline left the ring. Andre touched Fatu and his new necklace, so The Samoan Werewolf pulled Andre out of the crowd and into the ring for a beating.
Pearce came down with several security guards and WWE officials to stop Fatu. Instead of halting the attack on a helpless non-wrestler, Reigns directed Fatu to hit a few splashes on Andre.
Reigns then boasted into the camera that this was a message to their detractors. Pearce didn’t punish, fine, or even confront the Tribal Chief about assaulting a helpless non-wrestler.
If Pearce is trying to show he isn’t biased, he’s doing a terrible job of it. Had Fatu done that to another wrestler or even security, it wouldn’t be as big a deal. But since Pearce allows Reigns and the Bloodline to do whatever they want, it proves Knight and Seth Rollins’ points even more.
