RAW RUNDOWN

Jey Uso took a while to get composed to say his first words. He asked Gunther if he had a mother who checked in on him. Jey said he has a mother too, and he had to speak to her about her oldest son, who was in a hospital bed, with 15 stitches across his forehead. His mother asked him why he didn't protect Jimmy Uso, and Jey Uso accepted that it was because he was afraid of Gunther. Jey admitted he never felt so hopeless, disrespected, angry, or even scared.

However, he looked Gunther in the eyes and told him he wasn't afraid of him anymore. He told The Ring General to hug and kiss his family before WrestleMania. The Royal Rumble winner vowed to get the World Heavyweight Title for Jimmy Uso and his whole family and also vowed to take his title.

On Monday Night RAW, Adam Pearce opened the proceedings to make a WrestleMania match official, but with one massive and crucial change to the Women's World Title match. The WWE RAW General Manager opened the show and said that he assumed responsibility for how things played out last week because he wrongly assumed that three of the women could take responsibility.

Pearce then added Rhea Ripley to the Women's World Title match, officially making it a Triple Threat bout. All he did was ask for their signature.

The Beast Incarnate has been away from WWE for just over a year and eight months due to his involvement in a Vince McMahon scandal. Lesnar hasn't wrestled since losing to Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2023, where McIntyre failed to dethrone then-Intercontinental Champion Gunther. Drew's career has been on the rise with regular roles in main event storylines, but one thing is for sure - he has not forgotten what it's like to lock up with the former UFC Heavyweight Champion.

The Scottish Warrior remembers The Next Big Thing as a shaved gorilla. Speaking on the Wafflin' podcast, McIntyre discussed some of the larger wrestlers he has faced in his career, like Lesnar. He made an interesting comparison when asked if he ever feels concerned about giving up size in a match.

FROM THE RUMOR MILL

The Beast Incarnate has been in a tight corner since he was allegedly named in the ongoing Janel Grant lawsuit against Vince McMahon and the company. His contract is said to be frozen, and he is not expected to be back until the WWE legal team clears him of his alleged connection to the suit.

Amid his absence, a post circulated online claiming that Lesnar told a fan that he had retired from in-ring competition. This caused a massive stir on social media, with fans questioning the legitimacy of this hearsay. Whether or not it's true, only Brock Lesnar can tell. However, PWNexus noted that the former Universal Champion wouldn't be coming back anytime soon.

WHAT COULD BE NEXT?

This week's episode of WWE RAW concluded with Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman getting engaged in a heated segment. The Visionary confronted the Wiseman and advised him not to get involved in the Triple Threat match at WrestleMania 41. Moreover, Rollins hinted at attacking The Wiseman and eventually removing him from Showcase of Immortals.

CM Punk arrived and attempted to save the Special Counsel but instead got a taste of curb stomping from Rollins. When The Visionary had the opportunity to strike Paul Heyman, Rollins chose to spare him, which surprised fans. Additionally, the former World Champion asserted that for sparing Heyman, the Hall of Famer owes a favor to him

The feud between Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk took a shocking turn on the latest episode of WWE SmackDown. The Best in the World redeemed the favor Paul Heyman owed him, revealing that The Wiseman will be in his corner at WrestleMania 41. Despite Reigns asking Heyman to turn Punk down, the WWE Hall of Famer accepted his friend's demand.

The segment ended with The Second City Saint putting down Reigns with a GTS, and Seth Rollins refusing to engage in a physical brawl with Punk. The Visionary leaving the ring without raising a finger might lead to another startling change in the WrestleMania match. The Visionary can have the epiphany that the Night One main event match is more about the Reigns-Punk story, with Paul Heyman caught between them.
