Rollins enters the ring and agrees with the fans: NXT mopped the floor with RAW. Rollins has loved RAW for years, and he&#8217;s sad to see what it&#8217;s become. Rollins tells the roster that they sucked last night. He wants to right the ship and make RAW the &#8220;A&#8221; show again. Rollins then opens the floor for anyone who wants to speak.<\/p>\n<p>Rollins calls out Orton and says he was the weak link on the Survivor Series team. Rollins invites Orton to speak, but Orton just walks away. Rollins then calls out Charlotte and insults her family name. Charlotte walks away. Rollins tells the Authors of Pain that they weren&#8217;t even at Survivor Series, so he doesn&#8217;t need them on RAW tonight either. AOP walks away. Rollins then tells Rey that he let everyone down. Rollins also calls Rey&#8217;s son &#8220;stupid.&#8221; Rey walks away, then the roster follows him. Rollins is left alone in the ring&#8230; except for Kevin Owens.<\/p>\n<p>Owens enters the ring, but Rollins speaks first. Rollins says he loves RAW so much that he does everything he can to make it the best. What does Owens do? He doesn&#8217;t do anything. Does Owens want Rollins&#8217; spot? Well, Rollins says Owens will never be Seth Rollins. Owens responds by hitting Rollins with a stunner. Owens then walks away.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nCharly Caruso welcomes Seth Rollins.

Matt looked fine, but this was an exhibition for Murphy. Mutphy has been on a roll, and since he appears to be entering a program with Aleister Black, I wasn&#8217;t surprised by the outcome. It was good for being so short and predictable though.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Murphy calls out Aleister Black.

Humberto Carrillo comes out next, but he is attacks by Gallows and Anderson at ringside. Carrillo is destroyed when he takes the Magic Killer on the ring steps.<\/p>\n<p>Styles gets on the mic and asks if Carrillo can compete tonight. Clearly he can&#8217;t, and Styles is super disappointed. Ricochet is as ringside checking on Carrillo, so Styles laughs about RAW&#8217;s superhero failing to rescue Carrillo. Ricochet challenges Styles to a title match right now, but Styles refuses.<\/p>\n<p>Randy Orton comes out and walks towards the ring. Orton says Humberto can&#8217;t compete right now, but Orton can. Orton challenges Styles to a title match right now. Styles reminds Orton that they last time they competed, Styles won. Styles has nothing to prove to either Orton or Ricochet, so neither of them will get a title match.<\/p>\n<p>Drew McIntyre comes out, and he has a solution. McIntyre has never faced Styles, so he&#8217;s never lost to Styles. McIntyre also wants a title match. Styles says he&#8217;s a little sore after stealing the show last night.<\/p>\n<p>Rey Mysterio comes out and heads to the ring. Rey is also sore after last night, but he&#8217;s not complaining. Rey won&#8217;t let The OC cheat Chicago out of a title match, so Rey wants a title shot. Styles says all these guys are so entitled, so on principle, Styles declines everyone. Ricochet suggests a fatal four way to decide who will face Styles tonight. Styles thinks what Ricochet just said is very dumb. Gallows and Anderson kind of like the idea, and that makes Styles angry. Styles reluctantly agrees to Ricochet&#8217;s idea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 5<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Fatal Four Way US Title Number One Contender Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ricochet vs Randy Orton vs Drew McIntyre vs Rey Mysterio<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: John Cone)<\/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_69e738275a21a','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_69e738275a21a\" 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_69e738275a21a\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Rey Mysterio pins Ricochet with an inside cradle<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 11:07<\/strong> (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 \/>\nVery good match. Highlights were definitely seeing McIntyre versus Orton and Ricochet versus Mysterio. both of those matchups were fun, and this was an overall entertaining match.

Despite one awkward and poorly executed referee bump, this was a highly entertaining title match. Anderson and Gallows were at ringside and coused some shenanigans, and that led to a lot more drama and shenanigans late in the match. There were maybe a little too many shenanigans for my taste, but the result was nice and the spectacle was fun. I pretty much always like a clean finish better than an interference-filled finish, but the ends justified the means tonight. Rey and AJ were great.<\/p>\n<p>The cynical side of me feels a tiny bit like this was a consolation prize for Rey considering some of the stuff he&#8217;s endured over the past few weeks, but the match did make me happy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nCharly Caruso welcomes Kevin Owens. Owens has a message for Rollins. Owens says he&#8217;s always known who he is as a wrestler, and he&#8217;s never changed no matter what anyone says. Rollins, however, has always tried to be what people expect him to be or what he thinks people want him to be. It has made Rollins miserable, and it makes Owens sick.
