WWE Raw Results:

1. The New Day defeated The Dudley Boyz and John Cena. Xavier Woods pinned D-Von Dudley with a rollup and a handful of tights. After the match, the Dudleys put him through a table.
– Randy Orton is “missing,” having no-showed the Mexico tour. JBL’s sources say Orton’s been injured, and that he’s out of the tag team match against the Wyatt Family at Hell in a Cell.
2. Nikki Bella and Alicia Fox defeated Sasha Banks and Naomi. Bella pinned Naomi after a Rack Attack.
– Seth Rollins and Shawn Michaels had an in-ring confrontation. Rollins said he was the new improved version of Michaels, and Michaels said it’s better to be original.
3. Seth Rollins defeated Ryback. Rollins won with a Pedigree.
4. Sheamus, King Barrett and Rusev defeated Cesaro, Neville and Dolph Ziggler. Barrett pinned Ziggler after a Brogue Kick from Sheamus. These teams will have a rematch on the Hell in a Cell kickoff show.
– Ric Flair intro’d Roman Reigns. Reigns and Bray Wyatt argued and briefly brawled about their match at Hell in a Cell. This set up the night’s main event: Reigns and Dean Ambrose vs. the Wyatt Family (with a returning Erick Rowan in place of Luke Harper) in a handicap match. Backstage, a conversation between Shawn Michaels and Triple H ended with Seth Rollins wanting to “prove himself” and be the third man for Reigns and Ambrose.
5. Charlotte defeated Brie Bella. Charlotte won by submission with the Figure-Eight.
6. Kevin Owens defeated Mark Henry. Owens won with a pop-up powerbomb. After the match, Ryback charged the ring, but Owens fled. Henry stopped him, however, and rolled him back into the ring to take a Ryback powerbomb.
7. The Wyatt Family defeated Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. Rollins pretended to be injured and walked out on the match. Braun Strowman had Reigns in a choke, which caused Ambrose to attack Strowman with a kendo stick for a disqualification. Reigns speared Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan to end the show.
