It’s main event time! We shoot backstage for a quick comedy segment involving Alpha Academy and The New Day working out, which concludes with a match being made between the two teams for next week’s show. We return inside the arena and the stage begins getting set for our final match of the evening. With that said, the lights go down and we hear the familiar sounds of the entrance theme song of The Judgment Day. Out comes the former tag-team championship duo of Finn Balor and Damian Priest for their title rematch against the new champs. They settle into the ring as we head into a quick pre-match commercial break. When we return from the break, we see GUNTHER backstage talking to Imperium. He mentions that Giovanni Vinci didn’t get his job done tonight even though he did against Bronson Reed and Ludwig Kaiser did with a win in his match. He then tells Vinci if Gargano doesn’t leave on a stretcher next week, he won’t have done his job. Kaiser tells Vinci “no pressure” and walks off. Now we return inside the arena where we hear the familiar sounds of the theme music for “Main Event” Jey Uso. “Just him, Uce. Day one ish!” Out he comes to a big pop and gets the sea of fans to do the hand waive with him as he settles into the ring. His theme dies down and he awaits the arrival of his partner for our final match on the “Season Premiere” of Raw. The theme for Cody Rhodes hits next and as fireworks and pyro explodes, out comes “The American Nightmare” to thousands of members of the WWE Universe singing along with his catchy entrance tune as he settles inside the ring alongside Jey Uso. Samantha Irvin handles the formal pre-match ring introductions for the champions and the challengers. On that note, the commentators send us into one final commercial break before our Undisputed WWE World Tag-Team Championship main event between the team of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso and The Judgment Day duo of Finn Balor and Damian Priest gets underway. As we settle back in from the final pre-match commercial break, the bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one. Cody Rhodes and Finn Balor kick things off for their respective teams. Cody sets the tempo early on and establishes the early offensive control. He then tags in Uso. Uso hits the ring but ends up getting the top-rope pulled down and he sails out to the floor where he crashes and burns at ringside. Damian Priest tags in for The Judgment Day and goes to work against one-half of the Ucey tag-team champs on the floor. Back in the ring, Priest continues to take it to Uso and then tags in Balor, who hits the ring and picks up where he left off, taking it to the former member of The Bloodline. Cody tags back in and connects with a Disaster Kick on Priest for a close near fall. As he gets up, he notices Dominik Mysterio running down to the ringside area from the back. Cody hits a Cross-Rhodes on Priest and goes for the cover but Dom-Dom puts Priest’s boot on the ropes to keep The Judgment Day duo alive and in this one. The crowd loudly boos. Cody goes out after Dom on the floor and the chase is on. Rhodes ends up running into a clothesline from Balor. The fans loudly boo as we shift gears and head into a mid-match commercial break as the action continues with The Judgment Day duo of Balor and Priest back in the offensive lead. When we return from the break, we see Cody fighting back into competitive form on Priest. He hits a pedigree and both guys are down looking to make the tag. They each do. Balor works over Uso a bit but then Uso catches Balor coming in with a big kick. He and Cody hit their 1-D-Cutter and they go for the cover, but somehow Balor kicks out. Cody runs and dives onto Priest, who catches him and hits his South of Heaven chokeslam on the hard part of the ring apron from the floor. He clears off the commentary table after that. Jey Uso climbs to the top-rope but Dom grabs his boot. Uso kicks his way free but then leaps and splashes onto the raised knees of Balor. The ref is distracted by Dom-Dom on the apron moments later and this brings Sami Zayn running down to the ring to help out. He slams Dom into the ring post and the steel steps but then Priest rams Zayn into the post. Cody comes over and knocks Priest over the barricade and into the crowd. Priest hoists Cody up and puts him through the commentary table with a Razor’s Edge. Uso dives out to the floor but then Balor beats him down and brings him in the ring where he hits a sling blade. He goes for the Coup de Grace off the top but Uso moves. Uso hits Balor with a spear and climbs to the top himself. He sees Priest coming and takes him out with a spear. He goes to head to the top-rope again but Jimmy Uso decks him with a super kick. Balor follows up with the Coup de Grace off the top-rope and the pin fall for the victory. Balor and Priest have re-gained the Undisputed WWE World Tag-Team Championships thanks to the assist from Jimmy Uso. That’s not gonna help Jey Uso’s case around Raw. They celebrate with the titles as fireworks explode behind them. That’s how this week’s show goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
