WWE RAW Results: Rollins reveals reason for brutal attack on Cody Rhodes; Top star set to return after 6 months - Winners, Recap, Grades & Highlights (June 13th, 2022)
The Miz kicked off RAW, and Paul Heyman joined him as they talked about the upcoming Money in the Bank event. The A-Lister explained the rules of the ladder match, and Heyman told us that the winner of the match would no doubt fail to cash in on Roman Reigns if they tried.
"No matter what the percentage has been in the past ... when the champion is @WWERomanReigns, that percentage goes down to ZERO!" - @HeymanHustle
#WWERaw https://t.co/j8iktqZ27l
Heyman then reminded us that Riddle had earned a match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship before the Original Bro came out to join them. Riddle said that he was going to beat Roman, and there was nothing anyone could do to stop him, and Paul Heyman disagreed.
"@HeymanHustle, you don't know me. @WWERomanReigns doesn't know me. And you both don't know what I'm capable of."
@SuperKingofBros #WWERaw https://t.co/HfE2JwM0BJ
The Special Counsel told Riddle that if he loses to Reigns, the former RAW Tag Team Champion would never get another shot at Roman's title. The Usos walked out and were followed by The Street Profits before we headed for the first match of the night.
As revealed by @HeymanHustle, if @SuperKingofBros does not defeat @WWERomanReigns this Friday in the championship match on #SmackDown, Riddle will not be able to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship as long as Roman Reigns is champion!

Seth Rollins was backstage and said that he had no remorse for his actions last week after attacking Cody Rhodes. He clutched the sledgehammer in his hands and said that he did what he did to protect Rhodes from himself.
"@CodyRhodes was becoming not just a danger to WWE, but a danger to himself. He wanted to compete in the #MITB Ladder Match with a torn pec? In my WWE, it's adapt or perish."
@WWERollins #WWERaw https://t.co/1cbwfvF56y
The Visionary said he took pride in ending The American Nightmare's career so that he didn't hurt himself further in the Money in the Bank Ladder match.
.@AJStylesOrg outta nowhere!

Judgment Day, with Finn Balor, showed up on the Titantron and said what we were all thinking all along: "If you really are the best, you don't need to mention it every week."
"I don't tell people I'm intimidating. I just am."
Can @RheaRipley_WWE become a 2-time #WWERaw Women's Champion at #MITB? https://t.co/cacCmhFwtY
Ripley said she never has to say she is intimidating because her mere presence gets the point across. The Nightmare vowed to remove the champion from existence and claim the title that she deserves.
