Closing out the 12/6 Monday Night Raw was a Raw Women’s Championship match between Liv Morgan and the champion Becky Lynch. Lynch retained by rolling Liv up and using the ring ropes for leverage.

Scheduled for the 12/13 Raw is Rey and Dominik Mysterio versus The Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins). Both teams won matches to advance in the ‘RK-Bronament’. The winners of the match next week are going to challenge Randy Orton and Riddle for the Raw Tag Team Titles.

To open Raw, Kevin Owens went one-on-one with WWE Champion Big E in a non-title Steel Cage match. Big E won by escaping the cage but post-match, Owens, Big E and Seth Rollins were all beaten down by Bobby Lashley.

Tonight’s Raw emanated from Memphis, Tennessee and there was a segment with Memphis’ own Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler. While Lawler was talking to Nikki A.S.H. and Rhea Ripley, a woman asked him for his autograph.

In the ‘RK-Bronament’, The Street Profits advanced by defeating AJ Styles and Omos via count out. Omos was not able to make it back inside the ring in time. AJ Styles talked to Omos about the loss but Omos walked away from him.

Finn Balor was in action against T-BAR and got the victory. Balor was ambushed by Austin Theory after the match.

The United States Championship was on the line as the champion Damian Priest defended his title against Robert Roode. This win was Priest’s eighth successful defense of the U.S. Title.
