The episode earned an A-grade audience reaction and critical acclaim 0.
A brutal third chapter in their rivalry saw the duo exchange vicious strikes and hard-hitting brawls.

Neither could return to the ring in time, leading to a double count-out and fueling the ongoing feud 1.
This showcase spotlighted Penta’s Lucha Libre mastery. With fluid motion and precision, he hit a Mexican Destroyer, securing a clean pinfall victory and underscoring his momentum shift on Raw 2.
A dramatic and emotionally charged title match featured strategic teamwork and tension between partners. Bliss and Flair withstood onslaughts from Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, trading high-impact moves like moonsaults and DDTs. The champions retained their titles when Bliss landed a Sister Abigail on Perez for the pinfall 3.
Mysterio managed to retain the title thanks to interference from three masked “El Grande Americano” figures, confusing the competition and referees alike. Post-match, AJ Styles made a fiery appearance, chasing down Mysterio—teasing a future high-stakes clash 4.
In a compelling backstage segment, Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch was interrupted by former rival Nikki Bella, who demanded a title shot. The confrontation escalated with a vicious cheap shot delivered by Lynch, sending electric buzz through the audience and positioning a new feud to unfold 5.
Seth Rollins opened the show exalting in his “Ruse of the Century,” backed by Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed. LA Knight interrupted, demanding a title match, which GM Adam Pearce granted—but barred Breakker and Reed from ringside. During the bout, Knight hit a Burning Hammer, but Rollins nearly countered with a curb-stomp on the exposed concrete—until CM Punk stormed in, causing the disqualification. The angle spiraled into a chaotic brawl among Punk, Knight, Rollins, Breakker, and Reed. Roman Reigns made a shocking return but quickly fell victim to a devastating curb-stomp from Rollins, followed by emotional spear and Tsunami blows from Breakker and Reed—who then stole Reigns’ shoes as a humiliating taunt 6.
