Here is your post-Monday Night Raw fight size update for November 7, 2022.

Here is your post-Monday Night Raw fight size update for November 7, 2022:

– The Miz stated that Johnny Gargano’s tell-all interview last week was full of lies, though his own father believed it. He stated that he has benefitted from more publicity since the interview, but he is moving forward with a defamation suit. Gargano cut The Miz off and revealed that he hired someone to pretend to be a movie producer who met with The Miz. The individual, who was actually a private investigator, recorded the meeting, and The Miz admitted that Gargano was telling the truth. The Miz also confirmed that he stopped paying Dexter Lumis.

– Gargano then faced The Miz in their scheduled singles match. “Johnny Wrestling” more than held his own with the former WWE Champion. In the closing moments, The Miz got pulled under the ring, and he had a spare turnbuckle in his hands when he came back out. With the referee distracted, he blasted Gargano and pinned him for the win. Dexter Lumis attacked Miz with a steel chair after the bell.

– The Usos and Solo Sikoa kicked off the show to celebrate The Bloodline’s victories at WWE Crown Jewel. Jimmy and Jey shifted their gears to SmackDown, where they will defend the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions against The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods). The latter duo interrupted and vowed to win the match and protect their record as the longest-reigning tag team champions in WWE history. The Usos gave the New Credit for being great, but they called them the second-best team in WWE. Woods stated that the New Day built their own legacy, but The Usos had people helping them along. But The Usos fired back by noting that they faced pressure by coming from a wrestling family. The two teams kept going back and forth until Matt Riddle interrupted and invited everyone to get a hit on his bongos. He then challenged The Bloodline to a six-man tag team bout. The New Day and Riddle took on The Usos and Solo Sikoa in a six-man tag team match. The two trios threw everything they had at each other. In the end, Sikoa pinned Riddle to clinch the victory.

– WWE United States Champion Seth Rollins hosted an open challenge. The Judgment Day (Finn Balor, Damian Priest, Dominik Mysterio, and Rhea Ripley) came to the ring, and Balor said he has a bone to pick with Rollins for costing him gold. The OC (AJ Styles, Karl Anderson, and Doc Gallows) crashed the party. Rollins left the ring as the two groups stared each other down. Styles noted that The OC has been outmatched, but they found an answer to the Ripley problem. Mia Yim made her return and attacked Ripley, seemingly aligning with The OC in the process. The group then attacked The Judgment Day and sent them running.

– Backstage, The Judgment Day stated that adding Mia Yim to the mix didn’t solve anything for The OC. As the group walked away, Rhea Ripley got into a staredown with Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair.

– Belair, Alexa Bliss, and Asuka came to the ring. The Raw Women’s Champion stated that their feud with Damage CTRL is far from over, and she called the trio out. Damage CTRL responded, and Dakota Kai pointed out that Belair has lost to Bayley twice. She also bragged over her and Kai’s win over Bliss and Asuka at WWE Crown Jewel. Bliss responded by noting that Nikki Cross cost them the match. The two teams brawled, and Belair challenged Damage CTRL to a WarGames Match. Nikki Cross attacked Belair from behind, and she joined Damage CTRL in laying out their rivals. Bayley then told Belair she’d see her at WarGames. WWE later confirmed the match for Survivor Series.

– WWE 24/7 Champion Dana Brooke defended her title for the first time in the Triple H era; Nikki Cross challenged for the gold. Cross took the fight to the champion, and she ultimately emerged victorious. Cross won the title, but she tried to throw it in the trash backstage.

– In the main event, Seth Rollins tried to host his open challenge again. Bobby Lashley attacked Mustafa Ali when he tried to accept, and “The All Mighty” took his place. He proceeded to attack Rollins and slam him through the broadcast table before the match even started. He walked away, and Mr. Money in the Bank Austin Theory tried to capitalize by cashing in his contract. Instead, Lashley cost him the bout by pulling him out of the ring and trapping him in the Hurt Lock. Rollins then hit the Stomp for the win, so Theory’s cash-in failed.

– JBL came to the ring and brought out Baron Corbin by calling him the “Modern Day Wrestling God.” Corbin faced former Raw Tag Team Champion Cedric Alexander in a singles match. Corbin ultimately defeated Alexander to pick up a decisive win.

– Elias battled Otis in a singles match. Unfortunately for WWE’s resident guitarist, the Alpha Academy powerhouse scored a dominant win with an emphatic slam.

– Before he suffered a twist of fate later in the show, Austin Theory faced Shelton Benjamin after he called the veteran “Mr. Irrelevant” earlier in the day. Theory poked Benjamin in the eye and picked up a quick victory.- Catch up on our coverage of WWE Raw here.

– On Raw Talk, Shelton Benjamin delivered a passionate message; he stated that guys like him have carried the company for 20 years, and being called a “dinosaur” is a compliment. Benjamin said Theory might end up like plenty of other people who flamed out after their 15 minutes of fame. He stated that he’s still here, and he’s still fighting.

– In a WWE Digital Exclusive, Mia Yim said she’s ready to be back, and she’s looking forward to getting some retribution. 

– In a WWE Digital Exclusive, Lashley was asked about his actions. He made it clear that he has his sights set on getting his title back, and he’s going to beat people up until he wins it.
