It is confirmed that next week’s episode of Monday Night Raw in Bianca Belair’s hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, she’ll defend the Raw Women’s Title against Sonya Deville.
During tonight’s Raw, Sonya was informed by Adam Pearce that WWE officials are ‘looking into’ her conduct. Deville pleaded with Pearce that Belair should be fined for setting her up for the K.O.D. finisher earlier in the show. Bianca appeared in that segment to pay her one dollar fine.

In the main event of tonight’s program, Cody Rhodes took on Kevin Owens. Seth Rollins was able to choose Rhodes’ opponent and Rhodes did not find out who he was facing until he was in the ring. The match resulted in a count out in Rhodes’ favor. While Owens was on the outside, Rollins urged him to beat the ten count and told Owens to get his “fat ass” in the ring. After that comment, Owens walked away. While Cody was standing on the second ring rope following his win, Rollins pushed him out of the ring.
What did @WWERollins just say to @FightOwensFight?!
