Seth Rollins Stomps Roman Reigns on Raw as Raquel Rodriguez Wins 1 Women's Intercontinental Title

Q: How will Roman Reigns retaliate after Seth Rollins' devastating Stomp just days before their SummerSlam clash?

Roman Reigns is most likely to retaliate before or at SummerSlam with a direct physical response aimed at reestablishing control after Seth Rollins stood tall on Raw. The closing angle on July 27 made that clear: Rollins not only dropped the World Heavyweight Champion with a Stomp, he also framed the attack as part of a deeply personal rivalry dating back to The Shield. WWE’s own presentation and multiple reports describe the segment as the final escalation of a feud built on old betrayal, pride and psychological one-upmanship. In wrestling terms, the champion being left laid out on the go-home show often signals a counterstrike is coming. The most plausible response is that Reigns tries to overwhelm Rollins with the weapons that defined their exchange on Raw: a fast, violent ambush, likely centered on the Superman Punch and Spear. There is also reason to watch for Reigns to lean into the history between them, because this feud has repeatedly turned on emotion and mind games, not just match results. That could mean a backstage attack, an interruption before SummerSlam, or a more calculated attempt to bait Rollins into losing composure. What is not yet known is whether WWE will script that revenge before the event or save it for the match itself. But after being embarrassed with a Stomp days before a title bout, Reigns’ retaliation is expected to be immediate, personal and designed to reclaim momentum heading into SummerSlam.

Q: What is boxing star Ryan Garcia planning with The Judgment Day after ruining Raw's musical concert?

Ryan Garcia appears to be aligning himself, at least for now, with The Judgment Day after helping them wreck Joe Hendry and Danhausen’s concert on Raw. During the segment, Garcia initially joined the fun in the ring, but then turned on Hendry by smashing a guitar across his back. That triggered an attack by Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh, who joined Garcia in beating down Hendry and Danhausen before celebrating together. WWE’s on-air presentation and related coverage framed it as Garcia choosing The Judgment Day’s side. What comes next is not fully confirmed. Reports indicate the alliance may have been a one-night crossover tied to SummerSlam buildup, especially because Garcia is due back in boxing soon for his Sept. 12 WBC welterweight title defense against Conor Benn. Still, his appearance clearly advanced The Judgment Day’s feud with Danhausen and Joe Hendry, particularly ahead of Dominik Mysterio’s SummerSlam match with Danhausen. So the immediate answer is that Garcia is planning to stand with The Judgment Day in their ongoing WWE storyline, but there is no confirmed long-term plan beyond this Raw appearance.
