Monday Night Raw begins with a welcome to Triple H to the fans in the arena.
After that, he explains the rules of the draft and announces that the World Heavyweight Championship will remain at the red flag. Later on, it was reported that Brock Lesnar had renegotiated his position with the company to remain a free agent, meaning he would not be picked up by any brand tonight.
Next, he revealed the first “picks” of the draft.
RAW chose Seth Rollins and Rhea Ripley
SmackDown picks Austin Theory and Charlotte Flair.
After the first pick in the WWE Draft, Triple H proposed Paul Heyman. The ‘Wise Man’ confirms that he, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa will continue to face SmackDown, but the fate of the Usos remains unclear, after they failed to regain the Undisputed Tag Team Championship. Later, Heyman talked about the World Heavyweight Championship and the possibility of Roman Reigns winning it and taking it to the main event at WrestleMania, but he informed that this couldn’t happen because The Tribal Chief wouldn’t be on RAW. Paul Heyman continues his speech, mocking the next fighter to win the World Heavyweight Championship, stating that he will always be under Roman. Then, Seth Rollins came to the arena to mention that everyone should be happy that he’s on RAW and Reigns is still hiding out on SmackDown. The “Wise Man” states that this upsets the chief after making a phone call that “The Visionary” threatens to beat him up. At that moment, Solo Sikoa appears. Finally, a fight was agreed upon between Rollins and Sekoa for the main event of the night.
