WWE Raw Results 8/26 - Uncle Howdy Takes On Chad Gable, Braun Strowman Faces Bronson Reed & More

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE Raw" on August 26, 2024, coming to you live from the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence, Rhode Island!

Uncle Howdy will be competing in his first match since November 13, 2019 at a WWE Live Event as he goes one-on-one with Chad Gable. Gable and his American Made stablemates Julius Creed and Brutus Creed came up short to Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, and Dexter Lumis of The Wyatt Sicks a few weeks ago on the August 5 episode of "Raw".

After encountering one another last week, Bronson Reed will be squaring off with Braun Strowman in singles competition. Reed has proven himself to be a dominant force over the course of the past few weeks, taking out the likes of Seth "Freakin" Rollins and The Miz by delivering a series of Tsunamis to them.

Bron Breakker will become one step closer to finding out who his next challenger for the Intercontinental Championship is as Pete Dunne collides with The Miz and Xavier Woods, and Jey Uso goes head-to-head with Kofi Kingston and Karrion Kross in a pair of Triple Threat semifinals match for the Number One Contenders Tournament. Breakker's only title defense to date came on the August 12 edition of "Raw" when he retained against Sami Zayn in a 2-Out-Of-3 Falls Match, who he'd previously dethroned at WWE SummerSlam.

Additionally, Randy Orton has something on his mind to share before he challenges GUNTHER for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Bash In Berlin this coming Saturday, and Judgment Day is also set to appear on tonight's show after blindsiding Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest with an attack last week. Ripley and GUNTHER are also advertised to be in town per WWE's event page, as are Drew McIntyre and CM Punk ahead of their Strap Match at the Uber Arena.

We are live! Michael Cole and Corey Graves greet audiences at home as Judgment Day makes their way down to the ring.

Liv Morgan welcomes fans to "Raw" and demands that all rise for Judgment Day. Finn Balor says it's time to remind everyone what Judgment Day is all about, then throws it to a video of their attack on Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest last week. Carlito then calls the attack cool, and JD McDonagh says the attack was a long time coming to Ripley and Priest.

Balor says that Judgment Day isn't the bad guys, but rather Ripley and Priest. He says that they betrayed Judgment Day and they got what they deserved, then says that attack is just a preview of that Morgan and Dominik Mysterio will do to them at Bash In Berlin. Morgan thanks Ripley for being selfish and egotistical because none of this would've happened if she wasn't, then says her and Dominik will always be on top. Dominik adds that Morgan has done things for him that Ripley never did such as beating up Rey Mysterio.

Rey's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring with Dragon Lee, Joaquin Wilde, and Cruz Del Toro. Rey asks Dominik if he's looked in the mirror recently, then says he's a lost soul.

Balor tags in and wears down Del Toro before McDonagh tags back in. The pair double team on Del Toro, but Del Toro manages to tag in Wilde. Wilde delivers a facebuster to McDonagh.

This doesn't stop Wilde, however, as he connects with a springboard splash to level the four Judgment Day members.
