Matt Hardy is in the ring with Brother Nero. He suggests that a gathering of nations be held to resolve the issue of the Mankind Dwelling Monster leaving to Smackdown. He calls out Slater + Rhyno, The Miztourage, and Titus Worldwide for council on what should be done. They all jibber jabber a bit, getting their piece in on why they're the best. Jeff Hardy finally speaks up and says "why don't we just have a match to face them at Backlash?" Everyone nods... yeah... that makes sense... (64) The Hardy d. The Miztourage, Apollo + Titus, Rhyno + Slater in a four corners tag. Jeff Hardy once again does most of the work, usually choosing to tag another team instead of Matt when he's tired. The Hardyz win pretty easily anyway because the state of the Raw tag division. Just look at it. (67) Hawkins comes to MVP's office asking if that was legit and what will happen with the tag titles as the champs are on different shows. MVP says if they retain, he can go to Smackdown for all he cares (67)

Becky Lynch is here to kick lass and chew gum, and she's all out of gum. She calls out THE STRONGEST. Ronda appears, claiming to be THE STRONGEST. Becky's about to talk some more, Ronda takes her down, tries to brutalize her in Sonya Deville fashion from last week, is pulled off by security. Ronda slams some security. Becky is held back as well despite wanting to rumble. RONDA's OUT OF CONTROL. (68)

Ziggler comes out, gloats about he'll be facing BIG MATCH JOHN at Backlash. Starts to run down Cena. He's interrupted by Kairi Sane. She yells some stuff in Japanese at him clearly yelling something about "Andre the Giant." Vince Russo shows up behind her, cutting her off.. shouts about how he's been talkin with Carrie, bro, and she is PISSED about how you didn't show up this week with your hair in a bun, Ziggler! And now, as a result, he had NO CHOICE but to strip Ziggler's Andre the Giant Memorial trophy. Ziggler has no time for this nonsense, kinda ignores them, says "see you Sunday John" and leaves the ring. Kairi sighs and walks off too. Russo shouts "don't you ignore Carrie Ziggler! You piece a garb" and is cut off by a commercial break. (67)

Seth Rollins d. Goldust clean in a random match (66) Roman is backstage, Rollins wishes him good luck against Miz. Roman says he knows Rollins has been through "hell" with Goldust out there, smirks, and says he doesn't need luck. (92)

Miz vs Roman Reigns. Late in the match, Miz tries to load up the turnbuckle again with a foreign object, but is caught by the ref. As the ref is distracted Roman tries to spear Miz, but Miz dodges and the ref is speared. Miz hits a Skull Crushing Finale, but there's no ref! Samoa Joe rushes out, chokes out the battered Roman while Miz keeps a safe distance. He releases the choke a bit before the ref recovers. The ref recovers. Miz goes for the pin. 1! 2! 3! Miz wins! He'll face Strowman for the IC Title, this Sunday! (74) Samoa Joe continues the assault as Miz celebrates. Grabs a mic, says Roman doesn't have to feel bad about not getting a title shot, because he can get his revenge this Sunday... if he dares! Joe challenges him to an I Quit match! Will Roman accept?!? Tune in to Smackdown!(81)

Notez:
Rollins and Goldust have great chemistry. Shame I told them to warm up a hot crowd expecting the RUSSO segment to get a much lower rating than it did.
Sasha and Alexa have awful chemistry. I believe it.
I apologize for throwing together builds for 10 matches at once due to STORYLINEZ gettin in the way before. Hey it beats a lot of WWE builds though. Some of these feel organic. I think. Maybe?
These Raw write-ups are bloated but 3 hours, man. Need more Susan G Komen promotion to fill time obv.
