WWE RAW REPORT: RAQUEL VERSUS RHEA, A RETURN, JEY ADDS TO HIS LIST OF ENEMIES, GUNTHER'S CELEBRATION IS NOT WORTHY OF THE ACHIEVEMENT, AND A MOMENT OF STRATTONFACTION

Your announcers are Michael Cole and Wade Barrett.

Jey Uso makes his way to the ring.

Jey says that he is in your city.  He says it is good to be out of the Bloodline and on his own. He says it feels good to be on Raw.  

Kevin Owens' music interrupts and he makes his way to the ring.

Jey paces in the ring while Kevin stands still.

Kevin says he thinks what Jey meant to say at the start is that Jey Uso is now on the Kevin Owens Show.  He says he has been exactly where Jey is now.  He says he knows what Jey is going through.  Kevin says he did a lot of bad things to good people.  Kevin says he tried to change and make things right for the mistakes his committed in the past, it took a while to earn people's respect and trust.  Some people still don't respect him or trust him.  Kevin says McIntyre and Riddle are two of many people who don't want him here.  Kevin says people who don't normally talk to him say that they don't want Jey here.  Kevin says Cody was willing to give you a chance.  Last week, Sami welcomed you back with open arms.  That is it.  You want to earn people's trust, you have a long way to go to earn his trust and respect to prove you aren't the same scumbag you were when you were running around with the Bloodling.

THE Judgment Day's music plays and Finn, Dom, and Priest come out.

Finn says you don't talk to Main Event Jey like that.  Why do you have to prove yourself to Kevin Owens?  You don't have to prove yourself to him because Grand Slam Finn respects you.  The rest of THE Judgment Day respects you.  

Priest says that Kevin does not speak for the locker room and you don't speak for THE Judgment Day because they run the show.  Priest tells Jey he will need some time to make up his mind but THE Judgment Day door is open.  All you have to do is walk through it.  Dom said no a thousand times, but Dom is his best version now and he is a champ.

Dom holds the mic to his mouth and the crowd boos.  Dom tells Jey when someone like Kevin Owens questions your character.

Priest says they had a match with Kevin and Sami, what happened?  Where is he?

Kevin says Sami is not here and it doesn't matter.  He will fight any or all of you because he is here for a fight.

Jey says don't worry about Sami because he is here too.  If you want his respect and trust, why not Jey and Kevin versus THE Judgment Day?

Dom says he is opening doors for people and is trying to help Jey.

Kevin says let's do it.  Kevin goes after Dom and then after Priest.  THE Judgment Day is sent to the floor.

We go to commercial.
