“Brand Supremacy” is the name of the game as another edition of WWE Survivor Series barrels down the PPV schedule. But before the WWE roster gets there, they will have to go through another week of action on WWE Monday Night Raw. This night boasts a big contest between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens, along with plenty more to watch on the red brand.

The night started with Seth Rollins continuing to run bait Kevin Owens into a fight. Rollins had a lot to say until Owens came down to the ring and a fight broke out. Right before Owens hit the apron powerbomb, Rollins was able to escape and run to the back.

The first match of the night was a tag team affair, with Team RKO Bro and The Street Profits taking on AJ Styles, Omos, Bobby Roode, and Dolph Ziggler.

Roode and Montez Ford started out in the ring and Roode had the early advantage until Ford hit a big dropkick. The tag to Angelo Dawkins came soon after and Dawkins continued with the offense. Dawkins and Ziggler exchanged some offense until Randy Orton tagged into the match.

Orton took his time punishing Ziggler with stomps before tagging out to Riddle who went for a pin attempt after an assisted moonsault. Ziggler made the tag to Styles who took a stiff kick to the chest and quickly found himself locked into a triangle. He tried to powerbomb his way out of it, but both men went tumbling over the top rope.

Back from commercial it was Riddle versus Roode and Riddle was rolling until taking a spinebuster for a two count. Ziggler continued to dominate Riddle with him isolated on their side of the ring. Riddle was in bad straights until he was able to battle back and make his own tag before the next commercial break.

Ford didn’t fare much better when he was in the ring, as Omos had his way with him first before letting Ziggler take over. The four men kept Ford on their side of the ring, with Styles hitting a backbreaker for a two-count. Ziggler was able to frustrate Orton, hitting a neck breaker on Ford for another two-count. Ziggler went for a Fame Asser but Ford countered. When he kicked out of the pin attempt, he hit an enziguri to get to his corner.

Dawkins made the tag and went on a run against Roode, Styles, and Ziggler. Omos tagged in and Dawkins went right at him, only to get tossed to the mat. Ford was then sent outside the ring as well. Riddle tagged in with two big knees, but he was dropped flat on the back of his head as well. Roode and Ziggler jumped Orton outside the ring, while Ziggler made a quick tag to Omos, surprisingly. That led to a breakdown between the two teams as they brawled outside the ring.

Ziggler used that opportunity to crawl into the ring and steal the pin.

Dolph Ziggler, Bobby Roode, Omos, and AJ Styles defeated The Street Profits and Team RKO Bro via pinfall.

Rey and Dominick Mysterio were called out to the ring by Adam Pearce, who told Dominick that his position on the Raw Survivor Series team is on the line against Bobby Lashley.

Lashley immediately overpowered Mysterio, throwing him flat on his face and running through him with a shoulder block. Mysterio fought out of a vertical suplex attempt and tried to employ his speed against the former champion but jumping into Lashley’s arms did not help. Lashley tumbled outside the ring but Mysterio caught him again before running him into the steel post.

Lashley put on the Hurt Lock and before Mysterio could tap out, Lashley let go to put on more hurt. Outside the ring Rey tried to get involved, only to eat a boot to the chest. Dominick was tossed into the steel post again, before being rolled back into the ring and hit with a spear.

The next match up featured the WWE Champion, Big E, taking on Chad Gable.

Big E’s power was on display early, taking control of Gable easily. Big E pulled Gable to the ring apron and hit his big splash on Gable’s chest.

Gable was finally able to get in some offense when he hit a Dragon Screw in the corner, immediately focusing on Big E’s legs. Big E stood back up but Gable went after his knee with multiple chop blocks. Gable was even able to hit a belly-to-belly suplex on Big E and followed it up with a moonsault for a two-count.

Gable avoided the Big Ending and rolled into the German Suplex for another two-count. Gable made the mistake of charging at E in corner, only to eat a Uranage. Big E finished off the match with the Big Ending to get the victory.

Big E defeated Chad Gable via pinfall.

The 24/7 title was on the line next as Reggie took on Drake Maverick.

Maverick and Reggie locked up, where Maverick took control first after a punch to the face. Reggie fired back with his own punches before avoiding more strikes from Maverick to hit a dropkick. He followed that up with a front-flip to a clothesline in the corner. Reggie was distracted by a fight that broke outside the ring and Maverick used that moment to roll up Reggie to win the title.

However, the belt would switch hands immediately after as Akira Tozawa, Corey Graves, and Bryon Saxton all would win the title. Then Maverick would return the favor to secure the title. But he made the mistake of entering the ring where Reggie pinned Maverick to get the title back and escape with the gold.

Reggie remains the WWE 24/7 Champion.

A women’s fatal-five-way match was up next to see who the next challenger for WWE Raw Women’s Champion would be, Becky Lynch. The match started off with chaos from the very start, with all five women battling on the floor.

The five women were brought back into the ring to restart things. Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair cleared the ring but before they could engage the other ladies jumped back in to get involved. Ripley fought Carmella while Belair took on Zelina Vega.

Ripley and Belair finally locked up in the middle of the ring with neither woman gaining an advantage. Vega and Carmella tossed Belair into the barricade after they pulled her out to the floor. They tried to double-team Ripley but she was quickly able to overpower them until Vega landed a chop block. With Ripley grounded the two ladies started to batter Ripley.

They continued to double team Ripley, backing her into a corner with elbows and kicks. Carmella and Vega kept everyone outside the ring but would not allow each other to make a pinfall. Ripley was finally able to escape outside of the ring, giving Liv Morgan the opportunity to get in offense on Carmella.

Morgan attempted to pin Carmella, but Vega broke up the pinfall. Vega found herself staring down Ripley and none of her offense worked on the bigger woman. Ripley landed a Northern Lights Suplex but Belair broke up the pin attempt. She then continued to assault both Carmella and Vega until Morgan broke it up.

Vega hit her biggest offense of the match with a Tornado DDT, but she could not get the pin. Belair lifted Vega high into the air, tossing her onto the three other women as they fought outside.

Back from commercial, Belair lifts Morgan and Vega up for a double powerbomb, then takes a missile dropkick. Carmella runs in with a superkick but can’t get the pinfall on any of the ladies in the ring. She eats the announce table outside the ring, leaving Belair and Ripley in the ring alone again. They counter a series of moves until Ripley hits the Riptide but Morgan breaks it up.

Ripley blasts Morgan with a headbutt, but Morgan answers with a Hurricanrana. She counters the Riptide and hits the Oblivion but Vega breaks up the pinfall. Vega went for the Code Red but Belair used Vega to take out Morgan before hitting the KOD on Vega. Doudrop pulled Belair out of the ring and Morgan was able to take advantage to get the pinfall.

Liv Morgan defeated Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Carmella, and Zelina Vega to earn a shot at the Raw Women’s Championship.

The main event of the evening was a singles match between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens.

Owens rushed out and got right to fighting Rollins, forcing him from the ring and into the crowd.

Owens and Rollins came out throwing punches with Owens getting the upper hand. He followed up with chops to the chest, but Rollins snuck out of the ring before things could worsen. Owens made the mistake of chasing him and was met with stomps to the chest. Owens didn’t stop though, dropping Rollins in the corner, forcing him to get out of the ring again.

Owens sent Rollins into the barricade, hitting him with a clothesline and then a cannonball. Back inside the ring, Owens continued to punish Rollins, battering his chest with chops. Rollins tried to answer back, but Owens immediately knocked him from his feet, following up with a double stomp to the chest.

The two men fought on the apron and Owens sent Rollins flying into the announce table. He tried to follow up with a senton bomb off the apron, but Rollins got his knees up, giving him the space to escape again.

Back from commercial and it was Rollins in control. Rollins sent Owens into the ropes for knee strikes and hit a belly-to-back suplex for a two-count. Rollins continued to work over Owens’s midsection, using a snap suplex for a two-count. Owens would not go away, as the two men would slap each other in the face over and over.
