WWE RAW Cincinnati, Ohio, January 16, 2023
The commentators are Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick.
– WWE Monday Night RAW begins with the commentators greeting.
– The Usos enter the ring with Solo Sikoa. Jey says the Bloodline is in her town. Jimmy says they check SmackDown and RAW every week. Before Sikoa wins her match against Ali, they need to talk about Friday. Jey says Kevin Owens can’t run into the chief without consequences. And they have a big plan for 30 years of RAW. Jimmy says that each generation of the Bloodline will be there to honor our tribal leader, Roman Reigns. As a bonus, Jey says they will defend the tag team titles against Judgment Day and win the match.
The Judgment Day music begins and the clan enters the ring. Rhea Ripley says Bloodline just needs to realize that Judgment Day controls RAW. Finn Balor says they run RAW and last week they passed the entire RAW Tag Team Division and now they’re going through Bloodline. Balor says he wants to take this moment to thank former inmate Dominik for helping Judgment Day validate her place. Damian Priest says the two gorgeous red belts will return to RAW forever next week. The Bloodline says they control RAW, but when the Bloodline came to challenge Judgment Day? Balor never answers. Dominik says he thinks he knows something, he feels it, he feels fear. The Usos are afraid.
Jimmy asks afraid of who, the little latino? Dominik should look at the charts. Jey says they beat every team. New Day, RK-Bro, Street Profits, OC, Brawling Brutes and the story started with a win over Rey and Dominik Mysterio. So welcome to Judgment Day in your penitentiary!
Dominik says the reality is the Usos would never survive a minute in prison. The Usos are scammers. Street Master Solo Sikoa is the worst cheater since he doesn’t do anything.
Sikoa approaches Dominik, but Rhea Ripley blocks her way. Sikoa waves for his spike, but Dominik hits him. The confrontation breaks out between the two clans. Mustafa Ali arrives and takes the opportunity to beat up Sikoa.
– Back after the break, the game is already underway.

– Behind the scenes, Byron Saxton stands outside Adam Pearce’s office to find out who will have his place in the Rumble Match. Elias confirms his place in the match. Elias says it’s time to correct his 2022: The Revenge tour begins in 2023 with the Royal Rumble. MVP leaves Pearce’s office. MVP tells Elias not to bother Adam Pearce for the rumble match as the match winner has already been determined. Elias says MVP hasn’t mattered in 20 years. MVP says if Elias talks like that again, he’ll have to face eventual Rumble winner. Elias says he accepts.
