WWE Monday Night RAW #1467
Ort: Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida, USA
First broadcast: July 5th, 2021
We are on the road to the “Money in the Bank” PPV and it is the penultimate RAW issue in the WWE “Thunderdome”. Today MVP will be making his in ring comeback after his knee injury. Together with WWE Champion Bobby Lashley he will meet challenger number one Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods. Charlotte Flair will speak to us regarding the attack by RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley. The Miz awaits the participants of the “Money in the Bank” ladder match of the men on Miz TV.
Both Miz and John Morrison are already sitting in the ring and are surrounded by ladders. The two suitcases hang over their heads and Miz talks about his past cash ins and describes himself as the best superstar who has ever participated in this type of match. But someone else is going to win this year and that man’s name is John Morrison! The latter looks confidently in the direction of the suitcase and the next superstar is announced. It’s the man The Miz redeemed his suitcase for, Drew McIntyre! The Scot comes out and remembers that event very well. After his victory in the Elimination Chamber, Miz took advantage of the situation and became the new WWE Champion. Since then, McIntyre has been on the hunt for his title and will give everything to get this suitcase so that his quest can finally be successfully completed. Ricochet comes to the ring next. Miz reminds him of the incredible action against Morrison. Both men have been counted and will meet again today. Ricochet seems strengthened by this action and wants to defeat Morrison later that evening. Suddenly Riddle’s music starts. There is also a review of Riddle from last week when he injured his leg and was no longer able to take part in the main event. Riddle also immediately climbs the ladder and is disappointed not to have won the match for his best friend Randy Orton. But that doesn’t matter. Riddle will dedicate his Money in the Bank win to the Viper. The segment is interrupted by a man who will not be there, AJ Styles! The RAW Tag Team Champion criticizes the fact that there was a triple threat match last week instead of a normal singles match. Also, Riddle was pinned and not Styles! Omos looks at the ladder Riddle is sitting on and now tips it over. Riddle falls down and lands on the injured ankle. The segment ends with Omos and Morrison launching a couple of attacks, which McIntyre and Ricochet prevent. After the first break, the first match of the evening will take place.

Jinder Mahal came into the hall today with his motorcycle and was asked for an interview. Mahal meets Drew McIntyre today and he talks about the past between the two superstars. At that time they were on a team and were good friends. In the meantime, according to Mahal’s statements, the Scot no longer seems interested in a friendship. Apparently he thinks he is above Mahal. Jinder plans to bring him back down to earth later that evening.
Reginald, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler get ready their match. Alexa Bliss stands behind them and Reginald wants to draw attention to this. But when Jax and Baszler look back, Bliss can no longer be seen. Shayna has clearly had enough of Alexa and Reginald. She wants to concentrate fully on the match today and nothing more to the games.
We see a flashback of the Hell in a Cell Match between Bobby Lashley and Xavier Woods. Kofi Kingston promised to take revenge for the actions after the match and wants to crown himself WWE Champion. Today Woods will come back and play alongside Kingston against Lashley and MVP.
Nikki Cross aka “AAS” beat Shayna Baszler last week and is continuing to build on her strong form. Today she will compete with Naomi and Asuka and at “Money in the Bank” Cross will crown her strong form by winning the suitcase.

Charlotte stands in the ring with crutches and already has a microphone in her hand. The “Queen” talks about her possible absence from “Money in the Bank” and only because of a cowardly attack by Rhea Ripley. All because Rhea is afraid of flair. “The Nightmare” doesn’t wait long and comes out too and makes fun of Charlotte. She also has crutches with her and pretends to be badly injured. The “Queen” is not enthusiastic about this performance and looks bored at the performance. Rhea has a microphone and is certain that the injury is just a fake. She also immediately checks her statement with a kick in the direction of Charlotte’s knee. This evades and lets the Charade fall with it. Both women grab their crutches and want to hit each other. Flair evades and prefers to withdraw. The segment comes to an end with a star down for the two women.
