The action didn’t stop at the Giant Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania after this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw went off the air. The show saw the red brand roster continue on the road to WWE Crown Jewel, with a huge six-man tag-team match with Roman Reigns being announced for the November 2, Premium Live Event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
In a dark match after Raw, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes was in action and defeated Carmelo Hayes. After the match, Rhodes spoke to the fans and noticed a fan’s sign that read “I Finished My Cancer Story to See Cody.” The American Nightmare invited the fan into the ring, where they shared a hug while Rhodes gifted them his weight belt.
LA Knight After WWE Raw
Rhodes wasn’t the only Superstar to win after this week’s episode of WWE Raw went off the air. In another dark match, U.S. Champion LA Knight defeated Santos Escobar. In an amusing exchange with Lilian Garcia, Knight said the recently returned ring announcer had done a great job announcing his name, but wanted her to pause between the letters L and A.
Both Knight and Rhodes have major matches this weekend at WWE Crown Jewel. Knight will defend his title against Andrade and Carmelo Hayes while Rhodes will take on GUNTHER to determine the first Men’s Crown Jewel Champion.
