WWE RAW RESULTS – MARCH 30, 2026
‘WWE Then. Now. Forever. Together.’ kicks things off as always. We see a shot outside of Madison Square Garden as Michael Cole welcomes us to the show. He narrates as we see Superstar arrival shots of CM Punk, The Irresistible Forces and Oba Femi, who stops and glares at a Brock Lesnar picture on the wall.
Cody Rhodes, Stephanie McMahon Kick Things Off
Inside the arena we see a packed house full of thousands of WWE fans. We then hear the familiar sounds of Cody Rhodes’ theme. Pyro explodes and “The American Nightmare” emerges in a dapper suit with his Undisputed WWE Championship in-hand.
He stops to take a selfie with a kid, but the dad takes forever with his phone. Ouch. He shakes some more hands, kisses some more babies, and makes it to the ring just in time for the third set of pyro for his over-the-top, fan-friendly ring entrance.
Cody Rhodes begins with his usual “so what do you wanna talk about” line, while being the first to refer to MSG as the mecca and epicenter of WWE. Before he can say much else, he is cut off by the familiar sounds of the theme song for Stephanie McMahon-Levesque, who smiles and makes her way to the ring.
Stephanie reacts to Cody being surprised to see her being surprising to her, because as she reminds him, her last name is McMahon. She says her grandfather helped build MSG. She says she wants to talk about WrestleMania and Cody is not going to like what she has to say.
She goes on to talk about how she, Randy and Cody can all relate to being second and third generation stars in WWE. It’s different and very few can relate. Stephanie says with all due respect, Cody is not Dusty Rhodes. She says this version of Cody can’t beat this version of Orton.
Cody claims to know Orton just fine. He recalls a lot of Orton’s legacy and says he doesn’t need the student and teacher dynamic. He says he doesn’t want to be rude to Stephanie, but she says he’s not as good as her father, Cody bluntly tells her, “You aren’t either.” Stephanie slaps him.
She yells at him like a child, in typical Stephanie fashion, telling him that she’s out here because she cares about him and nobody is telling him what he needs to hear. Stephanie warns him one more time, slams the mic in his chest and goes to walk off.
Cody grabs her arm and turns her around. “Stephanie McMahon, I’ve two words for you … ‘thank you.’ He drops the mic and walks off. She smiles. His music hits and the crowd boos as the segment ends. The commentators recap what we just saw as he walks off.
Backstage With Danhausen, IShowSpeed & Adam Pearce
Backstage, IShowSpeed is looking for Danhausen. Say his name and he appears, as Danhausen offers to uncurse Speed in exchange for revenue. Nothing doing on that, but Pearce does have a front row seat for Speed tonight as he addresses LA Knight being the special guest commentator for the World Tag Team Championship Street Fight.
Knight says hello and they walk off, leaving us with Pearce and Danhausen. Pearce is confused about Danhausen not disappearing, eventually just walking off before we head back to ringside. The Usos make their entrance with a new theme song, as they are set to defend the World Tag Team Championship in a Street Fight.
WWE Tag-Team Championships (NYC Street Fight)
The Usos (c) vs. The Vision
We head to a quick commercial break. When the show returns, we hear LA Knight jumping on Cole’s commentary, leading Cole to point out the voice we hear is that of “The Mega Star.” The Vision duo of Austin Theory and Logan Paul make their way out. Knight brings up Paul Heyman being noticable in his absence.
The bell sounds and the four men immediately begin brawling in this no rules, NYC Street Fight for tag-team gold. Logan goes after Jey as Jimmy sends Theory out of the ring, and this allows The Usos to take Paul to the outside joining his Vision pal, just as the champs make a big dive over the ropes to send their challengers to the floor.
On that note, the show shifts gears and settles into a mid-match commercial break. When the show returns, we see The Usos beating the piss out of a trash can with one of their opponents in it. They hit a super-plex through a table. Paul tries getting brass knuckles from his mom.
LA Knight leaves the commentary section and hits Paul before he can use the knucks. IShowSpeed gets drug over the barricade by Paul in the mix. Paul ends up getting beat down by Knight. IShowSpeed gets the brass knuckles and goes to knock out Paul, but accidentally lays out Knight. In the ring, Theory covers Uso for the win. We have new champs.
Winners and NEW WWE Tag-Team Champions: The Vision
Liv Morgan & Stephanie Vaquer Chaos Continues, Roxanne Perez Returns
Back at ringside, Liv Morgan makes her entrance. We’ll hear from her up next. On that note, the show shifts gears and settles into another commercial break. When the show returns, we get a shot of a NYC subway station and celebs in the crowd including Jeff Ross and Lin-Manuel Miranda, before heading back to the ring where Liv Morgan awaits.
She introduces herself, in over-the-top annoying fashion, as the greatest Royal Rumble winner of all-time. Liv isn’t mincing words here as she tells Stephanie Vaquer she’s done, b*tch. She runs the champ for coming after her family in the Judgment Day, asking if she’s scared to confront Liv face to face.
She doesn’t know about what it’s like where Vaquer comes from, but where Liv comes from they know when it’s on sight. She then talks up her mother, before calling Steph’s trash in Spanish. She tells Stephanie to come after her, and the champ obliges as her music hits and Vaquer makes a beeline for the ring.
She lays the Royal Rumble winner out before going to ringside for a chair…but before she can do anything more, she gets blindsided by a returning Roxanne Perez. This allows the two JD ladies to beat the champ down, before Morgan drops her onto the chair with an Oblivion.
Morgan runs the champ down some more before she and Perez stand over her. Liv grabs the title and raises it up, ahead of facing Vaquer for the belt at WrestleMania. That’s how this explosive segment building one of the women’s title tilts at WrestleMania 42 wraps up.
Backstage With The Vision
We take a look back at Seth Rollins going after Paul Heyman last week, before being pulled away from ringside by some cops. Backstage, The Vision try to reassure IShowSpeed he’s going to be fine. Heyman joins in this, asking the new champs to take their friend out for dinner to celebrate.
The trio leave as Heyman remarks that The Usos are going to kill Speed, before Pearce talks to him about an email he sent the Oracle, only for Heyman to tell him to print it out and give it to him, before walking off. The show moves on from there.
WWE Women’s Tag-Team Championships
The Irresistible Forces (c) vs. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria
Back at ringside, Lyra Valkyria and Bayley make their entrance for our next match. They will challenge the Irresistible Forces for the Women’s Tag Team Championship, and that match is up next. On that note, we shift gears and head into a quick pre-match break.
When the show returns, we see the champs finish making their entrance. We take a look back at SmackDown where the champs and challengers got involved in some business involving Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss and The Bella Twins. The bell sounds and off we go.
Legend and Bayley start things off, but Lash takes her down with a boot before tagging in Nia Jax. Bayley escapes a scoop slam for a tag to Lyra, who uses her agility to keep Nia off her game. Jax traps her in the corner as Lash tags in, but Valkyria breaks free before going to the corner.
Legend catches her, sending her across the ring for a splash, but Lyra dodges it for a tag to Bayley. Double dropkick leads to a cover by Bayley, but Lash kicks out at one. Lyra tags back in but both challengers anre dropped by Legend, who brings Lyra to the corner for a tag to Jax.
Lyra fights both champs off before hitting the ropes for a dropkick. Blind tag by Bayley allows her to send Nia to the outside onto the table, and Lyra follows suit by taking Legend to the outside. On that note, we shift gears and head into a mid-match commercial break as the action continues.
We return to see Legend getting Valkyria in a stretch muffler submission and Valkyria tries to sunset flip out of the move but Legend is able to take Valkyria down with a clothesline. Jax is tagged in and Valkyria is double teamed. Jax tosses Valkyria into the corner.

Either way, we shift gears and head into a quick pre-segment commercial break. When the show returns, the familiar sounds of Brock Lesnar’s theme hits and out he comes accompanied by Paul Heyman. The two make their way to the ring for our next segment of the show.
Lesnar is dressed in ring gear. They get in the ring and Heyman does his introduction and reminds us he’s Lesnar’s advocate. Heyman says they are out here to pontificate on the peril that awaits Oba Femi. Heyman talks about Lesnar being caught off guard by Femi two weeks ago and how last week Lesnar was not dressed to fight.
He says Femi decided to pick a fight when Lesnar just wanted to talk. Tonight, Lesnar is ready to fight – Lesnar grabs the mic and tells Oba Femi to get his ass out here now. Adam Pearce comes out instead and says that won’t be happening tonight.
Pearce says he’s here to preserve WrestleMania matches and asks Heyman and Lesnar to leave the ring. The lights go out and Oba Femi’s music hits and he appears at the entryway. Femi struts to the ring and security run to Femi and he barges through the security and tosses them aside.
Pearce gets in Femi’s face and Femi pushes Pearce out of the way and Femi circles the ring as Lesnar waits inside the ring. Femi jumps onto the apron and gets into the ring. Lesnar and Femi stare each other down. Triple H runs down and gets in between Femi and Lesnar.
Heyman is now in the ring as well and Lesnar and Femi ignore Triple H until he yells at Heyman and Lesnar. Lesnar and Heyman leave the ring and Lesnar grabs the steel steps and goes to throw in the ring but stops. Lesnar F-5’s some security guards as he leaves.
