Not Quite 20/20 Vision

WWE Raw from Indianapolis kicked off with Paul Heyman and what is left of The Vision entering the ring to address Seth Rollins’ return at Elimination Chamber. Heyman said that Rollins stole the main event of WrestleMania from Logan Paul, and the next time they see him, they’ll stomp his ass out. Adam Pearce interrupted, accusing The Vision of injuring Jey Uso.

Pearce said that Seth was not cleared to compete, and three masked men entered the crowd one at a time, prompting Theory and Paul to chase them. A fourth appeared, distracting Paul Heyman when Seth Rollins appeared and nailed Heyman in the back with a chair. Rollins followed that up with a stomp to Heyman, much to the delight of the Indianapolis crowd. Heyman was helped to the back with blood streaming out of his nose as the crowd chanted “you deserve it”. 

Logan Paul and Austin Theory were assisting in getting Heyman into an ambulance when Jimmy Uso appeared and attacked Theory as Paul went to get their car. The camera panned to reveal LA Knight as the ambulance’s driver as it sped away. 

Gunther vs. Dragon Lee

Gunther was out next but was jumped from behind by Dragon Lee. A brawl ensued with Gunther hitting an insane-looking back body drop over the barricade and into the Timekeeper’s area. Gunther took firm control of the match and repeatedly tried to remove Lee’s mask. As the match went on, Dragon Lee continually built some hope spots, but Gunther kept knocking him back down. Finally, Gunther hit two consecutive powerbombs on Lee but pulled him up after the two count. Gunther then hit a third powerbomb onto the apron and then a fourth on the announce table.

Finally, Dragon Lee reversed a fifth attempt by hitting Guntehr with a Sunset Flip. He followed that up with a Suicide Dive and Operation Dragon. Dragon Lee went for it again, and Gunther caught him with the Sleeper hold, pulling his mask off in the process and forcing Dragon Lee to tap out. This was one of the best Raw matches in recent memory. 

Asuka was berating Kairi Sane backstage for not winning the Elimination Chamber. New Intercontinental Champion AJ Lee approached and asked if Kairi was okay, and she just stared off into space. 

Austin Theory and Logan Paul cut a promo during the commercial break, announcing that Theory would take on Jimmy Uso later tonight, following what happened earlier. 

Championship Material

AJ Lee was out next, saying that when she returned, she didn’t expect to take Becky Lynch’s title, but she surprised herself and was, in fact, still “Championship Material”. AJ said she would be a fighting champion, wouldn’t waste any time, and would take on anyone who thinks they could take it from her.

Footage from earlier in the day showed Original Americano talking to Penta, saying he would be first in line when he wins the Intercontinental title from Dominik Mysterio. Los Americanos entered and challenged him to a match at Rey de Reyes on March 14th. OG Americano said he was going to speak to Pearce and would face either Bravo or Rayo tonight. 

A pre-tape promo aired with Liv Morgan addressing her attack on Stephanie Vaquer last week. Morgan noted that she was signed to WWE at 20, whereas Vaquer was passed over after her first tryout. Despite everything, Liv sees a bit of herself in Vaquer, and at WrestleMania, she would take her title.

Original Americano vs. Rayo Americano

Next up was Chad Gable’s Original Americano taking on Pete Dunne’s Rayo Americano. Original Americano was distracted by Bravo and Grande, leading to Rayo diving onto Original’s head in a rough-looking spot as the show went to break. Upon return, Original attempted to unmask both Rayo and Bravo. This distraction allowed Grande to headbutt Original, and Bravo to hit a diving headbutt for a two count. They all continued to try to unmask each other when Original hit Rayo with a German Suplex for the pinfall victory. 

A pre-taped Penta promo aired ahead of their match for the Intercontinental Championship later tonight.

Liv Morgan suggested Raquel Rodriguez challenge AJ Lee for the Intercontinental Championship at Wrestlemania. Finn Balor appeared and said he was bummed with his loss but at peace with how it went down. Dominik said he needed the rest of Judgment Day out there with him to celebrate when he beats Penta.

Highlights from Oba Femi’s win last week on SmackDown aired, and Rusev appeared, challenging Femi to a match. Oba Femi appeared but was not in his gear. Rusev and Femi started fighting, but there was no referee, and no bell was rung. Femi fought Rusev out of the ring, and Rusev was apoplectic. 

Bayley and Lyra Valkyria were backstage, and Lyra said she couldn’t let Bayley miss WrestleMania again, suggesting she challenge AJ Lee for her Intercontinental title. Bayley suggested Lyra ask Pearce as well. They went into Pearce’s office but ran into Iyo Sky coming out. 

Jimmy Uso vs. Austin Theory

The next match saw Austin Theory taking on Jimmy Uso after the incident earlier in the show. Not long after the match began, Logan Paul jumped Jimmy, causing Theory to be disqualified. Paul and Theory beat down Jimmy until Jey appeared, and the brothers took out The Vision with Jey seemingly fine. 

A weird, brief video with CM Punk reenacting the Pipebomb Promo, intercut with the original footage aired. This was less than thirty seconds with no clear reasoning. 

Danhausen approached Adam Pearce with a list of demands, including a blimp, a Hall of Fame induction, a Triple H pointing photo, and his face on all of the trucks. Judgment Day walked by, and Pearce introduced them. Danhausen cursed Dominik and then disappeared. 

Rhea Ripley was interviewed on the stage alongside Iyo Sky, and Rhea called Iyo her best friend and thanked her for always supporting her. Ripley asked Iyo to hold down Raw for her as she was headed to SmackDown to go face-to-face with Jade Cargill. 

Announced for Next Week

  • Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender’s Gauntlet Match: Lyra Valkyria vs. Bayley vs. Iyo Sky vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka vs. Ivy Nile
  • Oba Femi vs Rusev

Intercontinental Championship

The main event of the night was the now-cursed Dominik Mysterio defending his title against Penta. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh were sitting next to the announce table for this match, as requested by Dom. The match went immediately to a commercial break and returned only to go back to commercial after the two flew over the barricade and into the timekeeper’s area. Mysterio attempted to remove Penta’s mask (the third time this had happened on this show, with the first two being Dragon Lee and Los Americanos) as the show returned. 

Dominik hit the 619 and went for a Splash when he was caught with the Sacrifice arm breaker, followed by the Penta Driver for a massive near fall. Penta then started screaming about his shoulder when he was posted, and Dom called for the bellhammer. Balor stopped JD from giving it to him, noting that Dominik wanted to do this by himself. Penta hit a dive onto Finn and JD and followed that up by hitting the Mexican Destroyer on Dom for the win.
