WWE Raw advertised Dominik Mysterio addressing Cody Rhodes, Raquel Rodriguez vs. Ronda Rousey, Seth Rollins providing an update on his condition and a Women’s Money in the Bank Summit.

Last week’s broadcast of WWE Raw garnered 1.820 million viewers.

Dominik Mysterio got so much heat, while hiding behind Rhea Ripley he had to tell her what to say on his behalf.

Cody Rhodes quoted “Cat in the Hat” to illustrate Dominik Mysterio was not a man, but a boy. Like everything else about his promo, fans ate it up.

Cody Rhodes ended his promo against Dominik Mysterio by calling him Mami’s Little Boy.

Fans were really into this opening match, chanting for Nakamura as Shinsuke and Ricochet took turns striking each other into oblivion.

Ricochet will always be known as a high-flyer, but the man deserves credit for his ability to work strong-style and brawling.

Bronson Reed was ringside and he was thrown out after getting involved. Unlike in AEW, Reed obeyed the referee’s orders and was not allowed to come back and loiter around the ring like Don Callis.

Raquel Rodriguez and Ronda Rousey had a great TV match not too long ago, and continued to demonstrate great chemistry. Ronda Rousey’s style seems to gel well against giants where she’s able to use their long limbs against them.

Shayna Baszler helped Ronda Rousey move out of the way of a running Vader Bomb from Rodriguez. This led to Liv Morgan crashing onto Baszler, all while Ronda stole a rollup victory.

This was one of the best three-minute matches you’ll find.

Finn Balor was featured in a fantastic video package prior to this segment.

Seth Rollins introduced Carmelo Hayes, who received a warm reception. Rollins then said “I don’t do this often...” before thanking Hayes for having his back. Seth Rollins, a babyface, doesn’t thank people often?

Balor attacked Rollins but was eventually run off after Carmelo Hayes once again interfered to help out Rollins.

Tommaso Ciampa explained that he answered Miz’s challenge last week because Miz didn’t call him once while Ciampa was injured.

The Miz attacked Ciampa while he was on his way to the ring and the match didn’t even get to take place.

Though Dominik Mysterio interferes in all of Dom’s matches, he’s quietly building quite the resume of victories albeit over lesser opponents.

Dominik Mysterio is being set up for a loss to Cody Rhodes, but with Brock Lesnar hovering around, and certain WWE brass thinking Rhodes needs to face adversity, anything is possible.

Becky was as over in this segment as she’s been for a while.

Everybody was highlighted in this segment, including Zelina Vega who got to run down everybody in the ring.

This match is the perfect mix of established stars and up-and-comers, and in the spirit of Money in the Bank, one of the up-and-comers needs to win.

Corey Graves reminded us that women have a 100% success rate in Money in the Bank.

Backstage, Rhea Ripley told Becky Lynch that if she even thinks about cashing in Money in the Bank, it’ll be the last thing she does against Ripley.

Kevin Patrick said “yes boy” and Corey Graves had a meltdown for about two minutes.

Giovani Vinci made his way to the ring wearing, returning in crutches.

As expected, tempter tantrum Kevin Owens was in rare form on commentary.

Similar to Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn took GUNTHER to the limit in a very good match before losing. Zayn’s lost came as a result of outside interference from Vinci.

Carmelo Hayes took to the main roster like a fish to water. With Vince gaining more and more power, if he takes (more of) a liking to Hayes after this match against Balor, I wouldn’t put it past WWE calling up Hayes on short notice.

WWE continued to promote NXT—with NXT commercials and mentions on television—in ways that they should have promoted NXT during the Wednesday Night Wars.

Carmelo Hayes showed well against Balor, and similar to Bron Breakker, he may not be long for NXT.

Pharaoh made his WWE debut in a backstage interview with Cody Rhodes.

Between having the home field advantage, and being WWE’s top babyface, fans in Georgia rallied behind Rhodes, but instead of directing their heat at Priest, fans repeatedly chanted “Dom, you suck!”

Rhodes kicked out of the South of Heaven in a very convincing nearfall, but Rhodes ultimately won with the Cross Rhodes.

Dominik Mysterio snuck in one final cheapshot before his match against Rhodes at Money in the Bank.
