WWE RAW Results (8/4/25): Live Match Updates and Highlights
The show opens up with a video package recapping last weekend’s WWE SummerSlam PLE. Michael Cole and Corey Graves then welcomes us to the show as we see the arrivals of WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss and WWE Women’s World Champion Naomi to the arena.
The WWE Drone then flies out into the Barclays Center and Seth Rollins’ music hits. Rollins then makes his way down to the ring with Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed and WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman. Rollins then hugs his three allies once they were all inside the ring. There were loud “CM Punk” chants after Rollins’ entrance theme plays. Paul Heyman then introduces himself and points at the World Championship, then says it is evidence that he is the GOAT. Heyman then says he is not just the greatest of all time, he is your humble oracle. Heyman then says he is humbled by the fact that he stands here in the presence of the future of WWE, the Big Dog who patrols our yard. Heyman then says he is humbled by the fact that he stands in the same ring as the tribal thief, the owner of Roman’s shoes. Heyman then says at this point he would be introducing the champion, Roman Reigns, but Roman hasn’t been champion for a year and a half has he.
Heyman then says he would be introducing CM Punk as the champion, but Punk wasn’t champion long enough to have side-plates put on the title belt. Heyman then says Punk had one of the greatest title matches with GUNTHER. Heyman then says Rollins not only crashed the wedding, he stole the honeymoon with the title and she was good. Heyman then delivers a big introduction for Rollins as the new champion and then hands him the microphone. Fans then sing Rollins’ entrance theme before he speaks.
Rollins then says all the fans who turned their backs on him after he won his WrestleMania 41 match, who cheered for Punk and cheered for Reigns should be ashamed. Rollins then tells the fans to never doubt him again and he always has a Plan B and this Plan B was a top secret one.

Rollins then says this is The Vision.
LA Knight’s music then hits and he makes his way down to the ring. Knight congratulates Rollins, Heyman, Breakker and Reed, then says he’s not in the ring for a fight but rather to answer some questions. Knight then says a lot of people are wondering why Rollins had to fake an injury and Rollins was faking the injury to get out of his match with him at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 12. Knight then says Rollins is a visionary with no vision and as he was enjoying his vacation, he realized what Rollins did and had to come to Brooklyn. Knight then says he was the last to beat Rollins and will be the next to beat him and Rollins gave him the ammunition to hurt him way worse than he could have by taking the World Heavyweight Championship from him tonight.
Rollins then declines Knight’s challenge to a title match, but Adam Pearce appears and says he would normally not make a World Heavyweight Championship with no promotion. Pearce then says normally a Superstar doesn’t lie to the medical staff week after week or to their general manager, then makes a World Heavyweight Championship match between Rollins and Knight official for the main event tonight as Breakker and Reed are barred from being at ringside.
We then head to the back, where WWE Intercontinental Champion “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio is walking with The Judgment Day backstage. Finn Bálor says they never doubted him. Bálor then asks Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez how they’re holding up. They say they are going to regroup. Mysterio then sees the LWO and asks what they’re doing in his hallway. Dragon Lee then challenges Mysterio to a match and Mysterio agrees. AJ Styles then walks up to Mysterio, so Bálor and JD McDonagh get close to him. Styles then says he’s not going to slap Mysterio around yet. Styles then says what Mysterio did last night was clever, but he is still coming after the Intercontinental Championship. Styles then says as long as Mysterio has it, he is coming after him. Styles then says there are only so many tricks he can have. Styles then says time is running out. Mysterio then says, “Yeah, time’s running out because you’re getting old.”
