Be back here tomorrow for the complete Best and Worst of Raw column.
WWE Raw Results:
– The show opens with all of the Raw participants in the Money In The Bank ladder matches in the ring standing on ladders. Kurt Angle comes out to talk about how great the matches will be before he’s interrupted by Raw Constable Baron Corbin (with a shaved head) to explain he speaks for Stephanie McMahon and she wants both briefcases to come back to Raw. The various participants in the ring argue about who will win. Fatal 4-Ways featuring the participants are set for later on, beginning with the women.
1. Fatal 4-Way Match: Natalya defeats Ember Moon, Sasha Banks, and Alexa Bliss by way of a Sharpshooter on Alexa Bliss. Moon hit Natalya with an Eclipse before Bliss broke it up and tried to steal the pin, which Banks broke up. Bliss avoided a Banks Statement by way of a rope break and sending Banks into the ringpost. Natalya takes advantage by sneaking up on Bliss to lock in the Sharpshooter.
– Kevin Owens tries to befriend Finn Balor backstage noting they need a plan going into their match to take out Braun Strowman. Balor is reluctant but agrees.
2. Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre defeat Breezango with a Claymore/Zig-Zag finisher on Fandango.
– Roman Reigns cuts a backstage promo on Jinder Mahal. Mahal then makes his entrance and says he won’t be fighting Reigns tonight, instead having Sunil Singh take his place.
3. Roman Reigns defeats Sunil Singh by pinning him following a spear.
4. The B-Team defeats Heath Slater and Rhyno with a suplex/neckbreaker finisher on Slater.
– The Deleters of Worlds cut a promo backstage

– Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax have their face-to-face before their Raw women’s championship match at MITB. They go face-to-face and Jax tries to hit Rousey with a forearm, who catches her and tries to lock in an armbar. Jax picks Rousey up, but Rousey gets her back down and forces her to tap.
6. No Way Jose defeats Curt Hawkins by pinning him after a pop-up punch.
– Roode and Balor meet backstage to discuss whether they should trust Owens and work with him in their Fatal 4-Way against Braun Strowman.

– Balor, Owens, and Roode meet backstage with Owens wanting to talk strategy for taking down Strowman, who shows up and dares them to team up against him.
7. Fatal 4-Way Match: Braun Strowman defeats Kevin Owens, Bobby Roode, and Finn Balor by pin after a chokeslam and running powerslam on Owens onto a ladder. Roode, Owens, and Balor work together to try and take out Strowman with Owens frog splashing Strowman through the announce table off a ladder, but Strowman eventually recovers and makes his way back to the ring. Strowman takes a Coup de Grace, Glorious DDT, and a second top-rope frog splash from Owens before taking a ladder from Owens and hitting the finishing sequence.
