Everyone is in the ring for the night&#8217;s opening match, but the Riott Squad comes out before the match can begin.<\/p>\n<p>Ruby Riott leads as Live Morgan and Sarah Logan carry a table down to ringside. While everyone is looking up the ramp at the Riott Squad, Jax and Tamina attack Natalya and Rousey from behind. The Riott Squad enters the ring and gangs up on Natalya while Tamina and Jax focus on Rousey.<\/p>\n<p>Tamina and Jax beat up Rousey outside the ring while the Riott Squad sets Natalya up on the apron.

She starts by talking about how she was appointed by Baron Corbin to lead the RAW women&#8217;s division. She says her open forum last week didn&#8217;t go as planned, so she&#8217;d like to try again. With that, she introduces Sasha Banks and Bayley who both head to the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Alexa wants to start the open forum, bu Bayley wonders when the attack is going to happen. Alexa presses on, and she has Charly Caruso get a question from a fan. The fan asks for Bayley and Sasha to respond to rumors that Sasha is just using Bayley. Sasha answers by saying Bayley is her best fiend and that they will be tag partners for life.<\/p>\n<p>Another fan asks both Bayley and Sasha whom they would like to face in a dream match. Sasha and Bayley say, in unison, Trish Stratus and Lita.<\/p>\n<p>A third fan asks what superpower Bayley and Sasha would choose. Bayley would be able to make things disappear, and she would start with Alexa Bliss. Sasha agrees. Bliss is disappointed in Bayley.<\/p>\n<p>The next question is about what changes Bayley and Sasha woiuld make to the women&#8217;s division. Bayley wants herself and Sasha to be the first-ever women&#8217;s tag champs.<\/p>\n<p>As Bayley finishes answering, Dana Brooke, Mickie James, and Alicia Fox run toward the ring.

Gable and Roode wonder what the catch is, but Corbin says the only stipulation is that Gable and the AoP are barred from ringside.

He&#8217;s happy about his TLC match where he will win by forfeit and become the permanent GM of RAW. His rise to the top hasn&#8217;t been without adversity, but he has had someone by his side who has helped make last few weeks easy and problem free. That man is Drew McIntyre. Baron Corbin shows a video package of McIntyre beating people up.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight is Drew McIntyre Appreciation Night, so Corbin introduces Drew. McIntyre heads to the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Corbin thanks McIntyre for his hard work and support. To commemorate McIntyre&#8217;s efforts, Corbin presents McIntyre with RAW&#8217;s gold medal of excellence. McIntyre appreciates Corbin&#8217;s gesture. McIntyre talks about how he has reformed RAW in his own image. He also says that he plans to hurt Finn Balor and break his spirit at TLC. As McIntyre continues, Dolph Ziggler interrupts and heads to the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Ziggler wonders if McIntyre is having memory problems. They were a team, but Ziggler didn&#8217;t see himself in McIntyre&#8217;s video package. McIntyre tells Ziggler that he was always the brains and the talent of their team. Their business relationship worked at the time, but it doesn&#8217;t work for McIntyre anymore. Ziggler served his purpose for McIntyre, and now McIntyre excuses Ziggler. As McIntyre keeps talking, Ziggler attacks. Ziggler hits McIntyre with the Zig Zag before leaving the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Baron Corbin stops Ziggler. He tells Ziggler that if he wants a fight, then he&#8217;ll have one right now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 3<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Drew McIntyre vs Dolph Ziggler<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Chad Patton)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e6034ca5c83','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e6034ca5c83\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e6034ca5c83\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Dolph Ziggler wins via pinfall after a superkick<\/strong> (and an attack from Finn Balor at ringside)<br \/>\n<strong>Time: 9:55<\/strong> (joined in progress; 1 break)<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nThis was very much a one-sided beating from McIntyre to Ziggler, but at least the ending was interesting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nElias walks backstage.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nCharly Caruso stops Drew McIntyre and asks for a comment. McIntyre says Ziggler was never his friend, but now he is his enemy. Also, Finn Balor is a marked man.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nIn the ring, Elias says Bobby Lashley is afraid of him. Elias begins to play a song when Lio Rush interrupts. Rush and Lashley are on the stage, and Rush says tonight&#8217;s spotlight belongs to Bobby Lashley. Rush has Lashley pose, including the butt pose.<\/p>\n<p>Elias has heard enough. Elias heads up to the stage, but Lashley quickly gets the upper-hand. Lashley tries to slam Elias into the LED board on the stage, but Elias reverses and slams Lashley instead. Elias grabs his guitar and chases Lashely to the backstage area. Elias comes back out to the stage, and as he does, Finn Balor attacks Rush, causing Rush to stagger onto the stage. Elias smashes his guitar onto Rush&#8217;s back. Elias and Balor exchange approving glances with each other.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nJinder Mahal tells Baron Corbin that he can&#8217;t let this night get to him. Mahal offers to take care of Balor tonight. Corbin thinks that&#8217;s a good idea, so Mahal and the Singh Brothers leave.<\/p>\n<p>Corbin calls for Heath Slater and Rhyno to join him. Corbin informs Rhyno and Slater that there is only enough room on RAW for one of them. He asks for one of them to quit to save the other guy&#8217;s job.

Dean Ambrose comes out next, also wearing a gas mask. They all head to the ring. Ambrose enters as everyone else surrounds the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Ambrose breaths into a microphone for a while before speaking. He then says that he needs protection from the diseases in Houston, and he also needs protection from &#8220;that madman&#8221; Seth Rollins. Ambrose says Rollins is needy, just like all the fans he meets. He says Rollins is a low-life scumbag with no character. Ambrose used to be proud of The Shield, but eventually Rollins and Reigns just wanted to be role models. Ambrose has never changed though. He is the last man in this industry with integrity. The only thing he is guilty of is trusting people, but no more. Ambrose is proud to stand alone as the moral compass of WWE.<\/p>\n<p>Ambrose says Rollins will finally lose control at TLC. He will lose control of his emotions, and he will lose control of his Intercontinental Championship. Rollins&#8217; music plays, but while most people are looking at the stage, Rollins attacks from the crowd. Rollins dumps Ambrose out of the ring, and the people in gas masks enter the ring to take Rollins down. Rollins manages to fight them off, and he chases Ambrose through the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Ambrose and Rollins brawl with both men getting some shots in. As they head back to ringside, Ambrose hits Rollins in the face with a gas mask. Ambrose hits Rollins with Dirty Deeds on the floor, then Rollins is put back into the ring by the gas mask guys. Ambrose again hits Rollins with Dirty Deeds.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nCharly Caruso welcomes Nia Jax and Tamina. Caruso tells them that Ember Moon will team with Rousey tonight. Jax says she wanted Charly to team with Rousey, but that&#8217;s ridiculous.

I think we still got a lot of stuff we&#8217;ve seen before (another Lucha House Rules, another open forum, another screwing of Roode and Gable), but we did have some good stuff like Balor standing up against his attackers (until he got knocked down).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m interested to see where the Rhyno\/Heath Slater thing goes. The Ambrose\/Rollins stuff was fine, but I&#8217;m probably going to enjoy their TLC match regardless of any predictable talking segments they have leading up to it (although Ambrose&#8217;s Bane outfit was an interesting choice).
