Conclusion
This edition of Raw served as a pivotal reset following the dramatic shifts over SummerSlam weekend. Seth Rollins emerged as the new World Heavyweight Champion through a masterfully executed cash-in, and his fiery promo on Raw reinforced his cunning persona. Naomi addressed the fallout of her championship triple threat, while Punk’s response to the title loss brought raw emotion and volatility. The Sheamus–Rusev rubber match added intensity to their rivalry, and Dominik Mysterio and AJ Styles continued to escalate their feud over the Intercontinental Title. Emerging storylines and returns—most notably the looming specter of Brock Lesnar—set the stage for the upcoming build toward Clash in Paris and further intrigue across both men’s and women’s divisions.
