— The show kicked off with Stephanie McMahon in the ring explaining that Mick Foley has the week off. Before she could continue, she was interrupted by Roman Reigns. He said he doesn’t want to wait until Fastlane, he wants Braun Strowman tonight. Stephanie pointed out that it would be bad for his health after the beating he took last week, and Strowman already has a match tonight against Mark Henry. If Reigns interferes in the match, he’ll lose his Fastlane AND WrestleMania opportunities.

1. Roman Reigns won via DQ against Gallows and Anderson. Though it was a 2-1 handicap match, Gallows and Anderson were disqualified after beating down Roman Reigns and ignoring the referee’s five-count.

2. Kofi Kingston defeated Bo Dallas. After making fun of Bo Dallas for looking like a social outcast, the New Day announced that they would reveal their plan to bring ice cream to the WWE Universe. Bo Dallas ripped up their folder containing the plans, and was rewarded with an SOS from Kingston.

3. Jack Gallagher defeated Noam Dar with Alicia Fox. After a devastating headbutt from Gallagher, Dar retreated to the corner. This allowed Gallagher to win the match with a running dropkick.

— Emmalina made her long-anticipated debut, appearing on the ramp to announce the upcoming makeover of Emmalina to Emma.

4. Braun Strowman defeated Mark Henry. Though the two strongmen seemed to trade offense equally, Strowman eventually out-muscled Mark Henry to win with a powerslam. Roman Reigns ran out to attack Strowman after the bell. After two Superman punches, Reigns set up for the spear, but Strowman caught him with a running powerslam.

5. Sami Zayn defeated Rusev with Lana. Rusev clotheslined Zayn to the outside, then headed outside himself to roll Sami back in. After Rusev got back in the ring, Sami popped up out of nowhere with a Helluva Kick for the win.

— Zayn was interviewed on the ramp after the match, but before it could finish Samoa Joe’s music hit. As Sami opened his arms to welcome the challenge, Joe jumped him from behind and choked him out with a Coquina Clutch.

6. Akira Tozawa defeated Ariya Daivari. Daivari whiffed on a clothesline, and instead ate a nasty German suplex from Tozawa that finished him off.

— Jericho followed a parade of showgirls out to the top of the ramp to start off the Festival of Friendship. Jericho presented Owens with multiple gifts, including a painting of ‘The Creation of Kevin’, and $7k Guggenheim sculpture. Jericho called out Goldberg, but got Gillberg instead. After dispatching him, the two forever friends headed back to the ring so Owens could give Jericho his present. Jericho was visibly touched as he thanked Owens for getting him a new list. Unbeknownst to Jericho, as he lifted it from the box, he revealed to the audience that the back read “LIST OF KO.” Jubilation turned to confusion as Jericho realized his own name was on the list. Owens jumped Jericho, beat him up, and sent him crashing into the Jeri-tron 5000, thus ending the Festival of Friendship and probably all friendships forever.

7. Cesaro defeated Enzo Amore. Cesaro made short work of Enzo. After a series of uppercuts and a double stomp, Cesaro finished him off with a Swiss Death uppercut.

8. WWE Raw Women’s Championship Match: Bayley defeated Charlotte (c). Dana ran in to interfere, but was pushed back outside by Bayley. Bayley put Charlotte into the Figure Four, but but it was broken up with an eye rake. Charlotte then put Bayley into the Figure Eight, but then Sasha ran out and hit Dana and then Charlotte with a crutch to re-level the playing field. After a Bayley to Belly suplex, Bayley became the new WWE Raw Women’s Champion.

Stephanie McMahon kicks off the show

Stephanie McMahon is introduced, and she comes out to light boos. She bounces her way down to the ring. McMahon does her obnoxious welcome to Monday Night RAW. Mick Foley was feeling tired and overworked, which is why he embarrassed himself so badly at Samoa Joe’s contract signing. She gave him the week off. When he returns, he’ll have his priorities in order. As for tonight, she’s running RAW in Las Vegas, Nevada. Roman Reigns’ music hits, and he comes out to thunderous boos. Reigns will face Braun Strowman at WWE Fastlane. Reigns says he doesn’t want to wait until Fastlane. He wants Strowman now. McMahon says since she’s running RAW, it’s not about her. It’s about the WWE Universe and what they want. Do they want to wait until Fastlane or do they want to see Reigns vs. Strowman tonight? They start up a “YES” chant. McMahon says that’s the sound of ambivalence. They don’t care that he’s not 100% tonight. She does care. The crowd boos. Reigns says he doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him, especially her. She says he’s failing to see the bigger picture. He will have Strowman… at Fastlane. Strowman is already in action tonight because he’s facing Mark Henry. Reigns says that sounds like a good fight he’d like to watch live. McMahon says if Reigns lays a hand on Strowman, maybe she’ll take away his Fastlane match and any opportunity he had at WrestleMania. Reigns says he isn’t making himself clear enough.

Braun Strowman vs. Mark Henry

Roman Reigns’ music hits, and he makes his way to the ring. Strowman looks ready for a fight. Reigns gets on the apron, and Strowman immediately punches him off.

Michael Cole interviews Samoa Joe

Michael Cole is sitting with Samoa Joe. Cole mentions it’s been an eventful couple of weeks. Cole calls his tactics dishonorable. Joe says he’s not here to get people’s respect. He’s here to hurt people. The only person whose respect matters is Triple H because he’s the only one that gave him a chance. If dishonorable tactics get him to achieve the greater vision, then so be it. Cole asks why Triple H chose this moment to put him on RAW. Joe says the actions speak for itself. Cole says people say Joe is here because Triple H is scared of Seth Rollins. Joe says for eighteen years, he’s laid a path of destruction. They were scared to hire him. He’s a dangerous man. Rollins is a perfect example. Rollins was the crowd jewel for years, and he couldn’t last for two minutes with him. Rollins will miss WrestleMania for the second year in a row. Cole mentions that Rollins said he would be back. Joe asks if this interview is about him or about Triple H. Joe says if Rollins does come back, he has no qualms about putting him right back on the shelf.Cole mentions his debut match against Roman Reigns. Joe says he beat Reigns. In two weeks, he beat the man and the guy. For eighteen years, he beat everyone they put in front of him. He’s here to take things from people. This isn’t a flash in the pan scenario. He’s not Sami Zayn just happy to be on the show. No one on the roster can stand in the ring with him. Cole says others have gotten this opportunity from Triple H. All of Triple H’s relationships go sour. Joe says he’s different from them because they needed to be propped up by Triple H. They needed his help to get the job done. He’s not those men. He doesn’t need Triple H’s help. He’s here to get the job done on his own. For once, Triple H has someone he can rely on. He knows what’s best for business. They will learn why the creator unleashed the destroyer. Joe then walks off.

The Festival of Friendship hits Las Vegas

Chris Jericho hypes up “The Festival of Friendship” from backstage big. Pyro goes off and a campy theme song plays. Las Vegas showgirls make their way to the stage, and Chris Jericho comes out in a silver jacket and ridiculous hat. Jericho gets the crowd going and presents “The Festival of Friendship.” The festival wouldn’t be complete without his best friend and WWE Universal Champion, Kevin Owens! Kevin Owens walks out in his regular gear looking extremely uncomfortable with this whole proceeding. Jericho then makes his way to the ring arm-in-arm with the showgirls. Jericho does some wild dancing and has on an extremely cheesy smile.Inside the ring is a table with a red velvet covering, a screen on a “Festival of Friendship” pedestal, and a picture on an easel covered up. Jericho says he wants to give him some gifts to prove how much he means to him. Jericho wanted something to be made that epitomizes their friendship. Jericho commissioned Ralph Guggenheim to make them a piece of art. The Art of Jericho is revealed: sculpt it in, man! A bizarre statue is shown of two figures hugging. Jericho says this shows that they are intertwined. Jericho says this cost him $7,000. Owens cannot believe that. Owens then reluctantly says that it was a steal. Jericho says Guggenheim might not be for everyone. Jericho then reveals a painting called “The Creation of Kevin.” It’s a mockup of “The Creation of Adam” from the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican. Owens says he cannot hang this in his home. He has two kids and Jericho isn’t wearing pants. Jericho says you don’t need pants in art. Jericho says the next present will appeal to everyone. They are magic together. Jericho hired the king of Las Vegas magic to be here. Jericho welcomes “Friendship” The Magician. Some guy comes into the ring pulling green scarves out of his mouth. The magician then makes a flower appear out of fire. Owens says his nine year old can do the same trick. Jericho then tells off the magician. Jericho asks what kind of magician he is. Jericho asks if he knows what happens when he doesn’t impress Owens and make an elephant disappear. “Friendship” The Magician… has made the list! Jericho kicks him out of the ring.

Goldberg’s music hits… and
Gillberg makes his way to the ring. Gillberg walks through some sparklers and fire extinguishers. Kevin Owens knocks Gillberg down on the ramp and sends him into the led apron. Jericho says Owens just beat him. Owens says he thought the whole point was to get Goldberg out here so they can beat the hell out of him. Instead, he gets Gillberg. A “Gillberg” chant fires up. Owens got Jericho something, but it’s nothing compared to this. Owens hands him a box. Jericho opens it and says it’s perfect. It’s a new list. Jericho asks why his name is on the list. Jericho holds it up, and on the back it says, “The List of KO.” Jericho asks what’s going on. Owens then attacks Jericho! Owens punches away at him and rips off his jacket. Owens knocks over some of the gifts and throws the painting out of the ring. Owens continues to assault Jericho at ringside before giving him an Apron Powerbomb!
