WWE Live Event Results: Rapid City, SD (April 21st, 2017)
The WWE headed to Rapid City, South Dakota putting for a live show of the RAW brand on April 21st. The event was headlined by Seth Rollins and Samoa Joe, besides a RAW Women’s championship matchup that saw Bayley defend her title in a Fatal 4-Way matchup.
It’s essential to note that the recent Superstar Shake-Up has not been fully implemented in the WWE’s house show circuit as of the time of this writing and a few Superstars such as Sami Zayn and Charlotte who’ve been drafted to the SmackDown brand did, in fact, compete at the Rapid City RAW live event.
The event also saw Finn Balor’s return to the live event scene after his absence last week owing to a concussion at the hands of Jinder Mahal a few days back on Monday Night RAW, against whom Balor competed at the Rapid City live event as well. Furthermore, the Hardys were absent from the show as they are busy completing their indie dates.
Elsewhere on the show, Braun Strowman fought Sami Zayn, while Neville and Austin Aries faced off for the former’s Cruiserweight championship.
