Bengaluru, May 28: The main focus heading into last night’s WWE Monday Night Raw was Money in the Bank winner Brock Lesnar's pick as his next opponent. Plus the build up to the next pay-per-view in-store, Super ShowDown also picked up pace on the penultimate Raw before the big event which takes place on June 7.
And with less than ten days remaining for the event in Saudi Arabia, the fate of the Universal Championship was finally decided on Raw as we received a new number one contender. Plus, there was a solid main event match featuring the champion himself at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
Check out the results of this week's episode of WWE Raw:
WWE Raw opened with Brock Lesnar's Money in the Bank cash-in decision, as the two champions, Kofi Kingston and Seth Rollins waited in the ring for his decision. Lesnar and Paul Heyman appeared and started joking around with some dance moves. Rollins left the ring in frustration, but Paul Heyman sarcastically took his name to hint that his client will cash in his contract against the Universal Champion to end the segment.
Meanwhile, Samoa Joe appeared in the ring to inform the WWE Universe that Rey Mysterio will vacate the United States Championship due to a shoulder injury next week.
The champion worked the match with a hurt knee which Zayn targeted throughout the fight. Zayn delivered a Blue Thunder Bomb followed by the Figure Four Leglock submission move but Rollins somehow survived and connected with back-to-back Stomps to win the match and end the show.
