What happened to Paul Heyman during Raw?
Paul Heyman gets stomped. Roman Reigns and CM Punk cross every line imaginable. Raquel Rodriguez is on the show. Did Dominic Mysterio just get cursed? This is the Raw Recap on WWE Now at WWE and Fanatics. Original production.
So much to talk about, and we will talk about it all.
How did Roman Reigns and CM Punk's rivalry escalate?
The highs, the lows, the everything in between. But Megan Morant, you see the WrestleMania sign hanging above us. Because that's the road that we're on to. The road that was described...
What are Raquel Rodriguez's aspirations for the Women's Intercontinental Championship?
Ending Monday Night Raw tonight. When Roman Reigns and CM Punk met in the ring again. The last time we saw these guys together was the Monday after the Royal Rumble.
Did Dominik Mysterio face any supernatural challenges?
When Roman Reigns made it official. Roman Reigns won the Royal Rumble and immediately said he was choosing CM Punk. And he was not choosing CM Punk because he thought it would be easy. He's not choosing CM Punk because CM Punk's on Raw, on Netflix. He's choosing CM Punk. Because he hates him. Because he hates him. He's always hated him. In the meantime, CM Punk has had his differences with Finn Balor. They hashed it out at the Elimination Chamber. CM Punk retains the championship. Finn Balor was talking about it in the Judgment Day Clubhouse, saying that he didn't love the result. However... He was at peace with everything that happened. It ended on a handshake, all well and good. But immediately, immediately when that match was over, I mean, before Dan Housen had even come out of his crate, there was a tweet up that let everybody know that now the pedal was going to be going to the metal.
Because Roman Reigns tweeted out that he didn't know who was more tired, the crowd or the champion. Double insult from Roman Reigns. CM Punk addressed it on the post show. And it brings us to Monday Night Raw tonight. Well, then he also told Punk to enjoy his last little bit of relevancy. His remaining weeks of relevancy before WrestleMania. Roman Reigns comes to the ring on Monday Night Raw looking only the way Roman Reigns could look. I liked the black jacket. I mean, he's just complete style. He's switching it up. I look like a Daytona on his wrist. I'm not 100% sure because I didn't see the band, but that's what it looked like to me. And all he could do was ask Indiana to acknowledge him, which they did.
And they were happy to. They were happy to. In Indy, they know who puts food on the table. But then CM Punk came out immediately. Before Roman could get another word out. Wasting no time, CM Punk comes in the ring. Roman Reigns is nothing but rage. anger, hatred, as he looks at CM Punk. And CM Punk's having one of the best nights of his life. Well, he's having a good time. At least he was until the end. He had the shiner under his eye and all. CM Punk gets into that ring with Roman Reigns, his WrestleMania opponent, in a great mood. I mean, he acted as if he was in a great mood. CM Punk can act as though Roman Reigns is the only one with feelings in that ring all that he wants. You don't end a segment the way CM Punk ended it if you don't have just the same amount of hatred, just the same amount of emotion.
If you're going to tell me that CM Punk is in Roman Reigns' head, you can't tell me that Roman Reigns is not in CM Punk's head. Yeah, it's a good point because this is what CM Punk brings up. He said, I have you exactly where I want you. You're talking about how much you hate me. You're being emotional. And then where CM Punk brought it. CM Punk's being emotional too. And that's what you're going to expect. Look, the fact is that Roman Reigns knows all the buttons to push as well for CM Punk. While CM Punk was gone for 10 years, Roman Reigns was seeing everything and everyone that this business has to offer. I can only imagine, you know, every time we've had somebody on this show and they talk about being champion, they talk about what it really is to be championed.
What it feels like, not just the matches, not just the media schedule, but the backstage of it all. The people you interact with, the people you can trust and the people that you can't trust. To maintain a championship reign for three and a half years.
