10/19 WWE RAW REPORT: A WAR (GAMES) IS COMING, LYRA AND BAYLEY END IT NEXT WEEK, THE IC TITLE PICTURE HEATS UP (BOTH OF THEM), AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2026-10-19 22:20:00

Your announcers are Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett

We take a look at last week’s main event.

A vehicle arrives at the arena and Roman Reigns emerges. Another vehicle drives up as Roman is handed his title belt by the belt valet.

Sami Zayn walks past Roman and he makes his way to the ring.

Sami says he hears the noise and he sees some haters in the house. How many of you came to ride or die with the last real good guy?

Roman Reigns’ music plays because he will not be shown up on his show.

Roman and Sami exchange some words and then Roman says he didn’t think he would be saying this, and he might be the only one in the building to say this, but it is good to see you.

Sami hugs Roman.

Sami says he feels the same. He wanted to call or text Roman, but he had to tell him in person. He says he gets what Roman said about the burden of being champion. Roman says someone was listening. Sami mentions the disrespect and Roman agrees. They say that they think they are them. Sami says he gets it now.

Roman says we are skipping a step so it is time to acknowledge.

Sami says it feels like old times and nothing has changed.

Roman says, speaking of old times, yo uare here on his show. Roman says he has an opportunity for Sami. Some might say it is a favor. That burden on your shoulders is tough. Everyone wants it. That isn’t the most important title you have. The most important title you had was Honorary Uce. Roman asks if we are here to discuss the titles or to discuss the 946? Are you here out of greed or out of love? Are you here to serve the Bloddline?

Sami tells Roman his time in the Bloodline was some of the best times in his life and career. They are family and he does not take it lightly. On Smackdown, he is the head of his own table. He has to do things for him and do them his way. Sami says he is the Undisputed WWE Champion.

Roman says that is ‘A’ Title, this is ‘THE’ Title.

Sami says that when you had this title, it was the A title and the other belt was the ‘B’ title. Maybe it is the arrogance of the person holding the title.

Roman says maybe it is the person who holds the title and that title hasn’t meant s*** since Wrestlemania 40.

Sami says they are not going act like the WWE Championship is one of the hardest title to win. No one is going to minimize this. It took him 20 years to get this title. Sami says he is so disappointed. This is not how he wanted things to go. He says he respects Roman and they are family. He says he didn’t want to do this. You are standing two feet away from me and we have a match at Crown Jewel and you act like I am not a threat. You should know better than anyone what kind of threat he can pose. He does not appreciate it.

Roman asks Sami if he thinks he is sweating him or disrespecting him. He knows Sami. If we are looking at your track record, you might not have the title by Crown Jewel.

Roman starts up the aisle and Penta makes his way to the stage, since both of his briefcase targets are in front of him.

Penta walks past Roman and then enters the ring with Sami.
