Rhea Ripley Def Liv Morgan to become the New WWE Women’s World Champions.

Dominic Mysterio threw Liv’s championship inside to distract the referee and Raquel Rodriguez threw a chair inside.
Liv delivered an Oblivion to Rhea on the chair and covered Rhea but she kicked out at two. Both the superstars gave it all. Rhea knew that Liv kicked Riptide once so she up the ante and delivered two consecutive Riptides to win the WWE Women’s World Champions.

The “American Badass” Undertaker entered the arena. A glimpse of the legend was enough for the fan to go berserk. He congratulated Rhea on her victory and left the ring
Jey Uso Def. Drew McIntyre
One of the most shocking results, Jey Uso pinned Drew McIntyre and won the match. The match started with both the superstars giving it their all to dominate one another. Both superstars took chances to dominate the game however, Drew’s brutality was too much to take for Jey Uso. Jey speared Drew but he kicked out at two while Jey himself kicked out of Claymore.
Drew dominated most of the match beating Jey who seemed lifeless after the assault. Drew delivered a future shock DDT, a Situp Powerbomb, and A Glasgow kiss, but it wasn’t enough to keep Jey down. Jey lined up for a spear but ran straight into Claymore but was able to kick out again. The WWE universe went berserk and chanted Jey Uso and Drew McIntyre simultaneously.
Drew lined up for a Claymore but Jey fell in the middle for the ring before Drew could deliver a Claymore. Jey took every ounce of his body to stand up and just when Drew was about to deliver a Claymore, Jey somehow clutched his hands and pinned him.
CM Punk Def. Seth Rollins
A match worthy of the Main Event of the Premiere episode lived up to its glory. The most physical match of Seth Rollins and CM Punk’s history as it took every ounce of their bodies. It looked like Seth Rollins was dominating CM Punk and had answers to every question CM Punk had. He did homework on CM Punk’s style of play. CM Punk was also targeting Seth’s neck which he had issues with.
Seth Rollins performed a GTS on CM Punk and the impact took CM Punk out of the ring. The Revolutionary put CM Punk inside the ring and the latter delivered a stomp to Seth but it wasn’t enough to pin him. The match went on and both the superstars kicked out near fall after near fall.

Both of them have a huge fan following so it was instinctive for both the superstar to keep the match at the brim and they did that. The Kingslayer delivered a Pedigree to Punk on the announce table. Seth took Punk inside the ring and performed a Pedigree and a GTS but Punk was still able to kick out. It was expected from both the superstars that they wouldn’t back down easily and they lived up to those expectations.
