WWE/NXT Live Event Reports, May 15-20: Rousey In Action, European Tour Concludes, Aleister Black Goes Home, Revival & Tyler Breeze In NXT, Much More!

A grueling stretch of travel is finally over for WWE's main roster. The Raw and Smackdown crews concluded their two-week tour of Europe, and a stretch of nearly three straight weeks on the road. 

The Raw events were highlighted by Ronda Rousey, who returned to the ring for the first time since her pro wrestling debut at WrestleMania last month. The former UFC champion originally was scheduled to wrestle Mickie James in singles action in Europe. Instead, she and James were on opposite sides of a series of six-woman tags with Rousey, Natalya, and Ember Moon joining forces against James, Liv Morgan, and Ruby Riott.

The latter half of Smackdown's tour through Europe included current NXT Champion Aleister Black, who made his return home and defended the title against Alexander Wolfe in a series of matches–including a stop in Black's hometown of Amsterdam.

Meanwhile, some noteworthy alumni from NXT made surprise returns at live events. The Revival left the Raw crew's tour of Europe and came back stateside for NXT's four-night loop of Oklahoma and Texas. The former two-time NXT Tag Champs challenged the current titleholders, the Undisputed ERA, at two of those stops. Tyler Breeze also made a surprise return to NXT, wrestling Marcel Barthel in the main event of the May 18 card in Jacksonville.

Here are all the results.
