WWE Monday Night RAW #1466
Ort: Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida, USA
First broadcast: June 28, 2021
Commentators say hello to tonight’s show, noting that “WWE Money In The Bank” is only three weeks away. The ring is filled with superstars and the camera switches to the backstage area, where WWE officials Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville announce that Randy Orton will not take part in the “Last Chance Qualifier Match” as announced for a place in the match for the coveted Money In The Bank Suitcase can participate. Instead, a worthy replacement will be determined in an Over The Tope Rope Battle Royal, according to Pearce. The two are interrupted by Riddle, who delivers a “message from Randy Orton”. The bottom line of the message is that Riddle should take Orton’s place in today’s qualifying match. After Adam Pearce had read the letter in full, he also noticed that it was written by the “Original Bro” himself. In the end, however, Randy Orton’s tag team partner managed to convince Deville and Pearce and they sent him to the ring for the following match.

Immediately after the end of the match, the “Original Bro” dedicates his victory to the “Viper” Randy Orton and lets his music play. This is followed by a video review of the feud between Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss. Back in the backstage area, Jax, Baszler and Reginald talk about Alexa’s games and Shayna Baszler vows to put an end to the ghost. As the trio leaves the room, it becomes clear that Alexa Bliss has been lurking in the background the entire time. After the commercial break, WWE RAW Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Omos are interviewed about Randy Orton and Big Man’s intervention in the first match of the evening. Styles thinks that Orton is losing a chance because he cannot compete against the “Phenomenal” AJ Styles and Drew McIntyre, while Omos sees his intervention as no big deal, just a small service of friendship. Then the backstage reporter had the scenes replayed when Ricochet managed to pin AJ Styles, which the veteran was not good at. He and Omos will defend the RAW Tag Team Championships against the Viking Raiders and after winning the Money In The Bank suitcase, he will be crowned WWE Champion for the third time in his career. Nikki Cross stands by the curtain and receives compliments from the Lucha House Party for her superhero outfit, and shortly after, Cross is also interviewed. She dreams of winning the Money In The Bank match and introduces herself as “Nikki AAS” (Nikki Almost A Superhero).
2. Match
Singles Match
“AAS” Nikki Cross won against Shayna Baszler (w / Nia Jax & Reginald) via pin after a roller coaster.
Match time: 09:41
– During the match Alexa Bliss came to the ring, which irritated Baszler, Jax and Reginald so much that Cross was able to show a cross body from the turnbuckle to the three. Bliss later eliminated Jax and Reginald.
A video clip looks back at the feud between Kofi Kingston and WWE Champion Bobby Lashley before the next commercial break is due. Back at the arena, Kofi Kingston grabs a microphone and talks about how hard it was for him to watch Lashley and his friend Xavier Woods meet on Hell In A Cell. Kofi promises that he will let the “All Mighty” pay for his actions, whereupon MVP comes out with five women and makes fun of Kofi. MVP predicts that Bobby Lashley will tear Kingston apart on Money In The Bank, just as Brock Lesnar did. In the past few weeks Lashley has lost the “All Mighty” and in a few weeks he might be walking around like MVP blinded by fame, according to Kofi Kingston. He brought the WWE title to Ghana and defended it with honor during his tenure, which Bobby could not say about himself, continues Kofi and promises, contrary to the assessment of MVP, that Xavier Woods will return next week. MVP runs down the ramp and ultimately has to put up with Kingston’s Trouble in Paradise that he was injured and did not have ring clearance, unfortunately did not help him. We get a look back on the last two weeks of “Eva-Lution” and also on Doudrop’s (Piper Niven) debut on Monday Night RAW. Now the two can be seen backstage and Eva Marie promises that she still has big plans. Today she and Doudrop will mop the floor with Asuka and Naomi and Doudrop will learn from their mistakes from Master!
3. Match
Tag Team Match
Doudrop & Eva Marie won against Asuka & Naomi via pin to Asuka after the pounce by Doudrop.
Match time: 02:15
– During the match, Eva Marie refused her partner a day and jumped from the apron, whereupon Doudrop won the match alone.
After the ring bell has sounded, Eva Marie announces herself as the winner of the match. We get a look back at last week when Riddle cost his partner Randy Orton the win over John Morrison. The Miz and John Morrison can then be seen in the backstage area and the latter is congratulated on his victory by Sarah Schreiber. Morrison says he’ll win the suitcase and cash in successfully as The Miz helps him. The Miz is not the biggest, strongest or fastest, but he is the smartest and knows how to do things, continues John Morrison, because nothing escapes the Miz’s sharpened senses. The two are interrupted by Ricochet, who stole Johnny’s drip stick and leaves The Miz pretty pissed off.
4. Match
Singles Match
John Morrison vs. Ricochet ended in a double countout.
Match time: 10:30
– Ricochet carried himself and his counterpart, who was sitting on the ring barrier, with a cross body from the top rope to the hall floor, whereupon he and Morrison did not make it back into the ring in time.
After a video clip of the feud between WWE RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair, Tamina, Natalya and Flair stand by behind the curtain and discuss their battle plan for the upcoming match. Before the ring bell had rung, the six women fought in and around the ring before another commercial break followed. When we return to the WWE Thunder Dome after the break, the match is already in full swing.
5. Match
Six Woman Tag Team Match
Charlotte Flair, Natalya & Tamina won against Mandy Rose, Dana Brooke & Rhea Ripley via pin to Mandy Rose after a big boot by Charlotte Flair.
Match time: 05:30
– After the match, Ripley kept going for Flair.
We get a look back at what happened around Elias and Jaxson Ryker. The former Forgotten Son is in the backstage area and strikes himself with a leather strap. Akira Tozawa sneaks past him with his 24/7 championship and R-Truth also comes along, but he approaches Ryker and asks him if he can help him get his “baby” back. The conversation is very one-sided, however, and Ryker’s only contributions related more to Elias than to Truth’s problems. However, the record WWE 24/7 champion sees a successful conversation and a “done deal”, which is why he thanks him briefly before he leaves. Earlier in the evening, Elias read up on Jaxson Ryker, what we get to see after Elias Entrance. He will use the leather strap to sound a symphony of clapping.
6. Match
Strap Match
Jaxson Ryker won against Elias via pin after a side slam.
Match time: 03:28
In the backstage area, Damian Priest wishes Riddle good luck in his upcoming match, but the “Original Bro” says he’s not Riddle at all, but Randy Orton. Priest can quickly lure him off the defensive thanks to a tempting Burger King offer. Riddle should take Randy Orton’s issue a little more relaxed, advises Damian Priest, but when he leaves the scene, Riddle seems to have forgotten the tips again. “I Am The Viper!” In the corridors of the arena, Drew McIntyre seems less than enthusiastic about the backstage reporter’s questions and then makes it clear that he will throw Riddle around, kick off AJ’s head and then win the Money In The Bank match.
7. Match
Money in the Bank Qualifikation – Triple Threat Match
Drew McIntyre won against AJ Styles (w / Omos) & Riddle via pin to Riddle after the Claymore Kick.
Match time: 24:30
– Riddle was helped by paramedics into the backstage area after 18 minutes when he apparently injured himself in his foot after colliding with the ring staircase. Less than five minutes later, Riddle came back into the arena with a bandaged foot.
