Without further ado, here are 10 things fans need to know about this week's WWE Raw.

10 Brawl Between The Bloodline & The Judgment Day

This week's episode of Monday Night Raw kicked off with a segment from the Bloodline (without Sami Zayn and Roman Reigns). The Usos cut a promo saying that next week there will be a ceremony for The Tribal Chief featuring Samoans from every generation.

Then Judgment Day showed up, and they had an exchange of words until they came to blows. Rhea Ripley confronted Solo Sikoa, and the latter was ready to attack her, but then Mustafa Ali showed up and attacked Sikoa.

Solo Sikoa and Mustafa Ali faced each other in a singles match. Ali still has his fighting spirit intact, he just wants to fight and win, but he has just taken beating after beating.

On this occasion, Ali did everything he could, but in the end, Solo Sikoa prevailed, as expected. Kevin Owens showed up and attacked The Bloodline mercilessly, getting revenge for last Friday's attack.

8 Cody Rhodes Will Return At Royal Rumble 2023

This Monday we had a major update on Cody Rhodes' recovery, and it looks like he is ready to make his return. We saw The American Nightmare training hard, and it seems his pec is doing pretty well.

Rhodes said that since he arrived, he has made it crystal clear that his goal is the World Title, so that's why he will return at the 2023 Royal Rumble. Perhaps it would have been better if this return had been a surprise, though.

7 The Street Profits Defeated Cedric Alexander & Shelton Benjamin

The Street Profits faced Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin. It was a good match in general terms, although nothing memorable. Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins did what they always do, a couple of great spots and cheering the fans with their charisma.

Meanwhile, Alexander and Benjamin looked good as well. In the end, the Street Profits were victorious and Alexander and Benjamin were furious with MVP because they felt he cost them the victory.

6 Becky Lynch And Bayley Cut A Nice Promo

This Monday Becky Lynch called out Bayley. These two old acquaintances had a pretty good exchange of words. The Man, as usual, did flawless mic work, saying that she works harder than anyone else and that's why she's had an illustrious career.

Also, Lynch told Bayley that it was time for her to stop blaming others for her failures. Finally, Lynch challenged Bayley to a Steel Cage match the next week, and Bayley accepted even though she wasn't sure about it.

5 Omos Defeated Elias

Elias said he wanted to participate in the Royal Rumble match, but MVP said not to bother since there was already a winner. MVP proposed that Elias face off against that winner, and Elias accepted believing that MVP was referring to himself.

However, MVP was talking about Omos. The Nigerian Giant then defeated Elias, who gave his best effort to survive but ended up on the mat.

4 The Judgment Day Defeated Alpha Academy

Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest faced off against Chad Gable and Otis. It was a very good match, with nice in-ring action and perfect pacing. It's impressive how over Otis and Gable are, they have endeared themselves to the fans based on solid performances on a regular basis.

The fans really wanted to see Alpha Academy win, but there was no way that was going to happen considering the Judgment Day are the number one contenders for the Raw Tag Team Championship. Gable was about to make Mysterio tap out with an Ankle Lock, but Priest hit a South of Heaven, allowing Dom to pin Gable for the win.

3 Michin Beat IYO SKY

Michin, also known as Mia Yim, scored a great win this week over IYO SKY. It was a very good match, both women looked good, executing good moves and great reversals.

However, the ending felt anticlimactic, it would have been great if the match had been a couple of minutes longer. IYO SKY attacked Candice LeRae (who was in ringside), so Michin took advantage of that to win the match.

2 Bianca Belair Punished Alexa Bliss, But Uncle Howdy Made The Save

Raw Women's Champion Bianca Belair called out Alexa Bliss to tell her that she will be waiting for her at Royal Rumble 2023, but not only that, Belair wanted revenge for Bliss' brutal attack a couple of weeks ago.

The EST punished Bliss and was about to hit a KOD onto a couple of chairs, but Uncle Howdy showed up to distract Belair and give Alexa motivation. Bliss then hit a DDT and left.

1 Amazing Main Event

The main event was a six-way elimination match for a United States Title shot. Bobby Lashley, Seth Rollins, Baron Corbin, Finn Balor, The Miz, and Dolph Ziggler were the participants. It was an amazing match, with non-stop action and very good sequences. Even the first man eliminated, The Miz, had an excellent performance.

Seth Rollins shined with three eliminations, but in the end, Bobby Lashley was the last man standing. However, The All Mighty didn't do it on his own, as he got help from MVP and Omos.
