Also, a new Number-one Contender for the United States Championship was also declared via two separate Triple Threat Matches.

Check out the recap and results from the August 1 episode of Monday Night Raw that took place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas:

– Raw after SummerSlam 2022 kicked off with Becky Lynch coming out to the ring with her right arm hanging in a sling.

She confirmed of dislocation of her shoulder during Saturday night's Raw Women’s Championship match against Bianca Belair. Becky then solidified her babyface turn with the following comment:

“At SummerSlam, I am happy to say I finally remembered who the hell I am.”

Lynch then called out Belair who came out to show respect to each other before she left. After she went to the backstage area, she was assaulted by Bayley, Dakota Kai, and IYO SKY. Belair ran back to check on her as the heel faction retreated.

– AJ Styles defeated Mustafa Ali and The Miz in a Triple Threat Match to get a shot at the Number-one Contender’s Match for the United States Championship.

Ali climbed to the top rope and delivered the 450-splash to the Miz after which Styles caught him with a Styles Clash on top of Miz for the pin to win.

– Seth Rollins appeared in a promo and mentioned that taking out Riddle at SummerSlam calls for a celebration. He also wanted to set his sights on Roman Reigns and the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

The Street Profits interrupted as Seth called them losers for coming up short against The Usos in the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship match at SummerSlam. Ford said that Seth is the biggest loser since he lost to a one-armed Cody Rhodes at Hell in a Cell.

– Seth Rollins then defeated Montez Ford (with Angelo Dawkins) in a singles contest. Ford looked for a Frog Splash off the top rope, but Rollins moved out of the way to send him hard onto the mat. Seth then hit with the Curb Stomp for the pin to win.

– Ciampa defeated Dolph Ziggler and Chad Gable in a Triple Threat Match for a shot to the Number-One Contender's Match for the United States Championship.

Ziggler pulled Gable off Ciampa. Gable hit a backslide on Ciampa but Ciampa got out of it and ran down with the Fairytale Ending on Gable for the pin to win.

– WWE Hall of Famer Edge brought back his original Rated-R Superstar gimmick to receive a thunderous pop from the crowd.

Edge said he’s been an a**hole for the past few months and hence apologized for it. Edge said he's the creator of The Judgement Day faction and he will now have no remorse for destroying the Judgement Day.

– RAW Women’s Champion Bianca Belair (with Asuka and Alexa Bliss) vs. IYO SKY (with Bayley and Dakota Kai) ended in a DQ.
