WWE Raw

-Commentators:  Michael Cole & Pat McAfee.
-Braun Strowman d. Chad Gable(w/ Otis Dozovic, "The Stamina Monster" Akira Tozawa, & Maxxine Dupri) via tilt-a-whirl powerslam (3:15 aired).  Gable yelled at the Alpha Academy members afterwards until Otis shoved him down before leaving the ring with Tozawa and Maxxine.
-Money In The Bank Qualifier:  "The Genius Of The Sky" Io Shirai(w/ "The Pirate Princess" Kairi Sane & Dakota Kai) won a triple threat match with Zelina Vega and Kiana James; World Women's Champion Liv Morgan distracted Zelina allowing Kiana to knock her out of the ring, but Io took out Kiana and pinned her with the Over The Moonsault (5:18 aired).
-Carlito Colón(w/ "Dirty" Dominik Misterio & "The Irish Ace" J.D. McDonagh) d. Dragon Lee(w/ Rey Misterio Jr. & Joaquin Wilde); World Women's Champion Liv Morgan came to ringside to distract Dominik, which brought out Zelina Vega to attack Liv.  The ringside parties fought and McDonagh tripped Dragon Lee on the ropes so Carlito could finish with the Backstabber (4:44 aired).
-Katana Chance & Kayden Carter(w/ Lyra Valkyria) d. "The Pirate Princess" Kairi Sane & Dakota Kai; Katana pinned Dakota after she and Kayden hit the Afterparty(reverse neckbreaker/450 Splash combo) (2:29).
-Sheamus O'Shaunessy d. Bron Breakker by DQ when Ludwig Kaiser attacked Sheamus (8:55 aired); Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn did commentary.  Sheamus fought off Kaiser before being laid out by a spear from Breakker.  Kaiser recovered to attack Sheamus again, then got laid out by another Breakker spear.
-Money In The Bank Qualifier:  "Main Event" Jey Uso won a triple threat match with Rey Misterio Jr. and "The Prince" Finn Bálor.  Rey was about to win when he was attacked by Dominik Misterio, J.D. McDonagh, & Carlito Colón; Braun Strowman ran off the Judgment Day, but the weakened Rey fell victim to the Coup De Grace(top-rope double-stomp) by Bálor.  Balor went for the pin but Jey hit the top-rope splash to break it up, then pinned Bálor himself (9:14 aired).
-Jey's celebration was interrupted by the lights going out reminiscient of "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt's arrival...and we saw several masked individuals lurking near bloodied wrestlers and agents backstage.  The new version of the Wyatt Family led by Uncle Howdy(fka Bo Dallas) congregated around a familiar-looking lantern as the show faded out.  "We're here!"
-Next week:  Kofi Kingston vs. Karrion Kross, plus Strowman vs. Gable vs. Big Bronson Reed and Lyra Valkyria vs. Kairi Sane vs. "The Queen Of Spades" Shayna Baszler in Money In The Bank qualifiers.
