WWE RAW RESULTS – MAY 26, 2025
“WWE Then. Now. Forever. Together.” kicks things off as always. We then shoot directly into a recap video package looking back at the WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event special event from this past weekend.
Seth Rollins & The Paul Heyman Guys Kick Things Off
After we see the usual arena arrival shots of various Superstars while Michael Cole and Pat McAfee welcome us to the show, we shoot inside the Yuengling Center where Seth Rollins’ theme hits. Out he comes accompanied by Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
They all settle in the ring looking like the new Men In Black, with dark suits and shades on, except Seth Rollins, who is wearing a white suit. Heyman begins on the microphone by boasting that Bron Breakker will headline several future WrestleMania shows.
Heyman says that is not a prediction, that is a freaking spoiler. He then goes on to taunt the crowd about CM Punk not being here tonight after a loud “CM Punk! CM Punk!” chant breaks out. Heyman then, ironically enough, puts over Reed as the guy who beat down Rollins worse than Roman Reigns ever did.
From there, Heyman does a long, dramatic build-up to introduce Rollins. He ends by telling everyone to get on their hands and knees and acknowledge Seth Rollins. Fans break out in a loud “OTC! OTC!” chant before Rollins can say a word. The chants turn to boos and then “We Want Roman!” chants. Whoops.
Rollins begins talking about total control, but is cut off by loud “You sold out! You sold out!” chants. Rollins acknowledges them, asking who he sold out to, himself? He says that doesn’t even make sense. He then reminds the fans that just five minutes ago they were singing his music.
He says CM Punk found out on Saturday what happens when you mess with him. He says Sami Zayn is going to find out tonight. He says he is going to qualify for Money In The Bank and then he is going to win the Money In The Bank contract and he is going to cash-in whenever and against whomever he wants. “And that is total power.”
Money In The Bank Qualifying Match
Penta vs. Dragon Lee vs. Chad Gable
Once the opening promo segment wraps up, the show shifts gears and gets ready for the first match of the evening. The lights go down and the familiar theme for Penta hits. Out comes Mr. Cero Miedo himself, for the first of two scheduled Money In The Bank qualifying matches this evening.
As he continues making his way to the ring, the show settles into a quick pre-match commercial break. When the show returns, El Hijo del Vikingo is shown in the crowd as his Worlds Collide match against Chad Gable is advertised on-screen. Gable and Dragon Lee are in the ring now as well.

He congratulates Jey for his first defense against Logan Paul. Gunther sees that Jey is trying really hard and is on the side of his friends. Great qualities for a human being, terrible qualities for a champion. This position comes natural to Gunther, not to Jey. The only person Gunther cares about himself.
He doesn’t think Jey has the intellect for the position, and will take care of business in two weeks and put the championship back around his waist. Jey is done with everybody saying his days are numbered. He has friends & family, he’s a real one. Jey invites Gunther to judge him.
He’s not overlooking Gunther. He’s fighting for the fans’ support, and will make Gunther tag out again. “Four letters, one word, uhh-uhh, YEET!” Off goes the champ.

Rhea Ripley Ready For Mami To Be On Top Again
We shoot to a special video package featuring new comments from “Mami” herself, Rhea Ripley. She says “Mami’s always on top” wasn’t just a saying to her. It was a way of life. Lately, it hasn’t been a reality.
She claims at Money in the Bank, that all changes. For the first time in her career, she’s in a ladder match. No one is ready for the brutality she’s going to unleash.
Ripley says she will climb the ladder and cement herself at the top of the Women’s Division. IYO SKY and Tiffany Stratton should hold their titles tightly. No one is safe from Mami in the Bank.
Liv Morgan Is Still Upset
We shoot backstage where Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez make their way back to The Judgment Day Clubhouse. Liv is still pissed. She disses Raquel backstage, saying she should have known better as the veteran.
Finn Balor is smiling his ass off, the same way as he did earlier while watching the carnage he created continue to unfold. Things wrap up on that note.
Becky Lynch & Lyra Valkyria Agree To Special Stipulations
WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion Lyra Valkyria is shown walking backstage. She will be coming out next. The show heads into a commercial break. Back inside the arena, as we return, the theme for Valkyria hits and out she comes.
Valkyria says she wishes she were here to talk about a new opponent, but Becky Lynch manipulated her way into another title match at Money in the Bank. What does she have to prove? She already beat Lynch twice. In the past, she was satisfied with beating her opponents in the ring. This is different.
She out-wrestled and beat Lynch, but Lynch sat there and talked like she won the match. She went on to try to steal another opportunity from people. Lynch is like a rat with cheese. All Valkyria wanted to do was pin Lynch’s shoulders, but she got in the face of her fiancé, tried to hurt her eye, and tried to break her arm.
It’s personal now. At Money in the Bank, she’ll hurt Lynch and her ego. Becky Lynch heads to the ring with a look of incredulity on her face. Lynch says Valkyria cost her an opportunity. She was done with Valkyria and moved on to bigger and better things. Valkyria may have won the match, but she won the night.
At the end of the night, Lynch went home with her hot husband while Valkyria went to the hospital with her weird little fiancé. Valkryria says Lynch’s husband is the only talented thing about her. Lynch says Valkyria is making it personal again. Valkyria could have just let it go, but she couldn’t.
Lynch is the best thing that’s ever happened to Valkyria, especially the title. Valkyria says that’s not the flex she thinks it is. People are talking about Valkyria because she beat Lynch. Valkyria always accuses her of stealing opportunities, so how about a stipulation?
If Valkyria beats her at Money in the Bank, Lynch will never challenge for the title again. Valkyria accepts. The last time she beat Lynch, she did it with her eyes closed. Lynch is not happy. Lynch says Valkyria didn’t let her finish. When Valkyria took the title from her at NXT in a non-decisive victory, she raised Valkyria’s hand.
When Lynch wins at Money in the Bank, Valkyria has to look her in the eyes and raise her hand. Valkyria says she’s never had an issue with raising the hand of a woman who is better than her. That just hasn’t been Lynch yet. Lynch yells at her from ringside. That’s how this noteworthy segment wraps up.
Karrion Kross Confronts Sami Zayn Backstage
We shoot backstage, where we see Sami Zayn walking the halls. Up walks Karrion Kross, who stops him. Kross gets a big ovation. Scarlett is seated on a crate nearby.
In the background, The New Day is walking with Grayson Waller. Kross says Zayn is still clawing to the top after foregoing an opportunity to go to SmackDown and get a title shot.
Zayn says he doesn’t have time for Kross and goes to walk off. Kross asks if he realizes he’ll never win the title. Zayn stops and says he’ll deal with Kross later.
NXT x AAA: Worlds Collide 2025 On June 7
On commentary, Michael Cole and Pat McAfee announce that at NXT x AAA: World’s Collide, Chad Gable will battle El Hijo Del Vikingo. We’ll also see a 6-Man Tag Team Match with El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., Psycho Clown, and Pagano against Legado Del Fantasma.

Bálor chops Zayn before chopping away at Rollins. Rollins fights back, but Bálor hits him with a reverse DDT as he simultaneously hits Zayn with a DDT.
Bálor covers Rollins for a two-count. Bálor then covers Zayn for a two-count. On that note, the show shifts gears and heads back into another commercial break as the action continues. When we return, we see things are still in progress.
As we settle back in from the commercial time out, we see Sami hit some punches on Seth in the corner, Finn gets his attention but that leads to a springboard moonsault from Sami to Seth and Finn on the floor. Sami goes for Blue Thunder, Seth turns that into a Falcon Arrow for two.
Sami goes up top, knocks Finn off but Seth follows. Sunset flip powerbomb gets two thanks to Finn. Seth gets out of Finn’s move, Pedigree is blocked, Finn hits a sling blade, knocks Sami down, goes up top but Sami blocks and follows him up top. Sami with a superplex, but Seth hits a frog splash on Sami.
After that, the show shifts gears and heads into a second mid-match commercial break as the bout continues. When the show returns, we see all hell break loose, as Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker start to get involved. Dominik Mysterio runs down and slides a chair in for Balor, but as he leans down to pick it up, Rollins Stomps his head into it for the win.
With the win, Rollins qualifies. After the match, CM Punk’s theme hits. As Breakker and Reed go up to catch him, Punk slides in behind Rollins and takes him out and then runs through the crowd. His theme hits again as Reed and Breakker stare him down from the ring. That’s how this week’s show goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
Winner and QUALIFYING for Money In The Bank: Seth Rollins
