By Richard Trionfo on 2020-07-27 22:59:00

We are back and Mark Henry is talking to Ruby Riott and Bianca Belair.

Seth Rollins makes his way to the ring with Buddy Murphy

Seth says at Extreme Rules, he defeated the legend Rey Mysterio and last week on Raw, he defeated Aleister Black.  Seth says he is on a roll and should be in a great mood, but he is not.  Dominik Mysterio is here and he plans to confront me.  This seems to be a recurring theme.  When the greater good takes two steps forward, someone stands in his way and they have to take a step backwards.  The ugliness in all of this is that someone seems to get hurt every step of the way.

Kevin Owens stood in my way and he broke his ankle.  We know what happened to Rey Mysterio.  Last week, Aleister Black, who continues to be a thorn in his side, injured his arm.  That is not how I want things to be.  I don't want to be the person who hurts people.  The last time Dominik said he was coming to Raw to confront me, Dominik jumped me from behind and things got more violent than they deserved.  Tonight will be different because Dominik does not have to hide in the shadows and jump him from behind.

Seth says he has a soft spot in his heart for the Mysterio family.  Seth asks for Dominik to come to the ring to confront him face to face and man to man.  Seth says he wants to talk it out.

Dominik Mysterio comes to the stage and Seth invites him to the ring and Seth says he won't hurt Dominik.  Buddy holds the ropes open for Dominik.

Seth says he wants to give Dominik the opportunity and he says he is a benevolent man.  He tells Dominik that he is here for Dominik.  If you need any guidance . . . Seth holds his arms open for Dominik.

Dominik with a double leg take down but Buddy punches and kicks Dominik.  Murphy with punches to Dominik.  Dominik is sent into the ringside barrier.  They continue to send Dominik into the ringside barrier.  Dominik is sent into the announce table.

Aleister Black comes to the ring to help Dominik and go after Seth and Buddy.  Murphy goes after the injured arm and Seth sends Black into the plexiglass.  Murphy with a kick to Black.  Black sets for Black Out and hits it.

Seth tells Murphy he knows what he has to do.  He asks Murphy if he is in this for real.  He slaps Murphy and tells him what he has to do.  Murphy grabs Black and tries to push his eye into the edge of the steps and he does it.

Murphy goes for Dominik but Dominik hits Buddy and Seth with a kendo stick.

Mustafa Ali is in the back and R Truth shows up.  Truth mentions that Ali is on the MVP Lounge.  Truth asks Ali if he is going after the 24/7 Title.  Ali says he has a match against Lashley tonight.  Truth says he is going to get his baby back and he tells Mufasa he has his eyes on him.

We go to commercial.

We are back and MVP is in the ring with Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin for the VIP Lounge.

MVP says he tried to celebrate his victory at Extreme Rules last week, but the night didn't go the way it was supposed to go.  MVP says he had the opportunity to meet a young man who he never met before.  Where this man has been, he does not know and he does not care.  He is someone he would like to help.  This is a man who talks about chasing the light and he wants this man to see the light.

Mustafa Ali makes his way to the ring.  

MVP welcomes Ali to the VIP Lounge and give him a chance to experience the good life.  This is where made men congregate.  You make good decisions and good things happen.  When you make a bad decision, you become a dissatisfied customer of the Hurt Business.

Ali asks about the stockholders of the Hurt Business since him and his 'little friends' put the Hurt Business out of business.  Ali says he is happy.  He is happy that he is back.  He is happy to be on Raw and that he has the opportunity to climb the ladder and the opportunity to become a champion . . . a real champion.

MVP tells Ali that he is talented and he sees wonderful things happening to you.  Those things you said can happen, but it comes down to making the right decisions.  When you hang out with the right people, good things happen.

Ali says he is not buying what MVP is selling.  He thinks for himself.

MVP says Ali is not thinking well right now.  You are facing Bobby Lashley tonight.  MVP says Apollo Crews went down the path you did and now he is at home watching this on his couch.  You can join us and party like a rock star or you can sit at home next to Apollo Crews.  You can be champion or chum in the water for predators.

Ali thinks about it and he says no.  He does not care what the proposal is.  Ali . . . 

R Truth attacks Shelton Benjamin and rolls him up on the floor for a near fall.  Truth goes through the ring and heads to the back as we go to commercial.

We go to commercial.

We take a look at what happened with the Raw Women's Champoinship at Extreme Rules.

Sasha Banks says nobody likes a bully and there is no bigger bully than Stephanie McMahon.  Stephanie is making her defend her title against Asuka tonight.  It is because she is jealous of Sasha.  Stephanie is jealous of both of them.  It is because they have all the gold.  Bayley says whether it is NXT, Smackdown, or Raw, they are the show.  Bayley says they make it look easy.  They lead by example and they fight injustice.  When Asuka spit that disgusting green stuff in the referee's face, Bayley had to make sure he was okay and then Bayley saw Sasha on top of Asuka and made the three count.

Sasha says they would hold all the gold.  They said they would change the game.  Bayley says Sasha will make Asuka tap out tonight.
