Monday Night Raw Review 7/21/2026

Raw From the Dirty D! So much happened during the show as WWE gets ready for SummerSlam.  

Match Results

• The Vision (Bron Breakker & Austin Theory) def. Je'Von Evans & Dragon Lee Bron secured the pin after catching Lee with a massive spear following distractions from Logan Paul and Maxxine Dupri. Post-match, Alpha Academy tried to step in to save the day, but Breakker laid out Otis with two more spears. Before that Otis looked like an unstoppable Beast. Maybe he has tapped into hidden rage. Tozawa looked like he was channeling his sadistic Dragon Gate days, would love to see him bring that out more. I do wonder why Gable doesn't help the Alpha Academy if he has truly changed... 3.5 Kendo Sticks

• Oba Femi def. JD McDonagh In an impromptu match stemming from a chaotic backstage incident involving Danhausen and The Judgment Day where judgment day interrupted Danhusen from giving fans some more discount money for SummerSlam Seats. JD through a brief case full of Hausen money only to hit Oba who noted astutely, "you know I should kill you for that!" Pierce stepped in to suggest a match between Oba and JD instead. Dom said that wasn't fair and Pierce agreed giving Dom a match against Joe Hendry. Oba Femi made quick work of McDonagh with a Fall From Grace. Femi cut a post-match promo declaring he's ready for Brock Lesnar in Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam.4 Kendo Sticks

• Chad Gable & Penta def. Rusev & Ethan Page Despite being set to face each other for the Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam, Gable and Penta showed surprising chemistry. Penta leveled Page with a Mexican Destroyer, allowing Gable to force Rusev to tap out to the Ankle Lock. Overall a good match and Page and Rusev are very entertaining pairing.  As Wade Barrett noted Rusev is Robin to Page's Batman. Gable again tortures us with his dad rock. 3.8 Kendo Sticks 

• Joe Hendry def. Dominik Mysterio Liv Morgan attempted to interfere on Dirty Dom's behalf, but Danhausen and IYO SKY came out to neutralize her. Danhausen struck Mysterio, allowing Hendry to roll him up for the non-title victory. Hendry and Dom are so good I would love a last standing or I quit match between the two. Team JoeHausen? Say his Namehausen? 4 Kendo sticks

• Jacob Fatu def. LA Knight (Main Event) In a "Slobber Knocker" of a  main event, Fatu put Knight away with a Samoan Drop into a Moonsault. After the bell, Solo Sikoa and Royce Keys rushed out, sparking a massive brawl with The Usos. The night ended with The Bloodline laying everyone out and standing tall. Listen I love LA bought can he really trust Jacob's former BFF and SOLO? Jay and Jimmy are literally his brothers! I don't know what's going to happen at SummerSlam with this six man but somehow I get the feeling LA is coming up short. 4 broken Kendo Sticks

• Overall show ranking 8 steel chair shots out of ten 

Key Segments & Highlights

• Seth Rollins & Solo Sikoa: Sikoa made an offer to help Rollins against Roman Reigns at SummerSlam. Before Rollins could give a definitive answer, Jacob Fatu interrupted, leading to Rollins dropping Fatu with a thrust kick.

• Danhausen Chaos: The Judgment Day demanded Danhausen return the $100k they paid him to "curse" Oba Femi, leading to absolute pandemonium. Danhausen ended up accidentally tossing the money onto Femi backstage, setting up the McDonagh beatdown. Later in the night, a match was officially booked for SummerSlam: Danhausen vs. Dominik Mysterio.
