Welcome to the Raw review for August 31, 2020.

Story Progression

The story of the night was who would face Drew McIntyre at Clash of Champions. Three matches set up who would face each other in the main event. The smart money was always going to be on Randy Orton, but the two men he faced had their own stories. Seth faced Dominik, without the help of Murphy. Lee faced Ziggler, proving his debut was no fluke. Orton won, but he was scared of Lee. How many times do you see the Viper not even attempt a pin on a man he had just RKO’d?

Results

Keith Lee beat Dolph Ziggler.

Mickie James beat Lana.

Randy Orton beat Kevin Owens.

Cedric Alexander and The Viking Raiders beat The Hurt Business.

The Riott Squad beat the IIconics. The IIconics must disband.

Seth Rollins beat Dominik.

The Street Profits vs. Andrade and Angel Garza was no contest.

Randy Orton beat Keith Lee and Seth Rollins to become the number 1 contender for the Universal Championship.

Final Thought

Lee is a star.
