WWE Raw Results (11/14) - Seth Rollins Vs. Finn Balor, Matt Riddle Vs. Chad Gable, The Miz Issues A Public Apology

Rollins welcomes fans to Monday Night Rollins and introduces himself. He says he is still United States Champion by the hair on his chin and says last week was crazy. He says contenders are coming out of the woodwork, then addresses Austin Theory's failed Money In The Bank cash-in. He says it didn't work out for him like he had planned, and says something seems different about his title: him. He says it is the top prize on Monday nights and says he will add to his legacy when he takes on Finn Balor.

Bobby Lashley's music hits and he heads to the ring with a mic in hand. He says he turned "little selfie boy" into a punchline last week and says his beatings will continue until he gets the United States Championship back. Rollins says he had his chance last week, but he decided it would be better to take his soul from his body. He says his loss to Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel has been affecting him as of late.

Mustafa Ali's music hits and he heads to the ring with a referee. Ali says he's here to make things right. Lashley says that the beatdown he suffered last week will pale in comparison to what he does tonight and tells him to walk away before he regrets it.

Ali charges at him, but Lashley tosses him out of the ring. Ali jumps him from behind and fires off forearms. Lashley tosses him out of the ring once again and tells Ali he's pissing him off. He tells him to "get in the ring to get some."

The bell rings and Tamina delivers a clothesline from behind. She delivers a hip attack, followed by a bodyslam. She ascends to the top and looks for a Frog Splash, but Yim rolls out of the way and delivers a series of forearms and chops. She hits a kick to her thigh, followed by a tijeras and a forearm in the corner. Yim delivers a kick to Tamina's spin, then follows it up with an uppercut. She hits Eat Defeat for the win.

Winner: Mia Yim

After the match, Yim tells Ripley to get in the ring. Ripley teases doing so, but decides not to.

We then head backstage to Matt Riddle playing his bongos. Cathay Kelley approaches him and she asks where Elias is. Riddle says he's doing "big rockstar things" and says he finally agreed to be in a band with him. Alpha Academy walks in and Gable says the only thing more ridiculous than their band is the idea of them as a tag team. Gable says he will do to him what Otis did to Elias last week. Riddle calls them "lame-o's".

Back from the break, Damage CTRL approaches Yim. They say they know what it feels like to be forgotten about (like she was) and invite her to join their team at WarGames. Yim says she has no problems with Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss and Asuka and SKY tells her not to take too long to think about it.

Back at ringside, Matt Riddle heads down. Alpha Academy follows.

Back from the break, Byron Saxton and The Miz are in the ring. Miz welcomes fans to MizTV and says he will be relinquishing his role as host to be Saxton's special guest. Saxton thanks Miz for joining him and asks if he's sorry for paying off Dexter Lumis. Miz says he's prepared a statement and says he regrets paying Dexter Lumis. He says all he wanted was empathy and says he has never called a day off in his 18 years in WWE, even if he was injured. He says he has never gotten a cheer or a pat on his back, and says he has asked for very little. He says Lumis just kept taking from him and he had to put a stop to Lumis' greediness.

Saxton asks why The Miz told the investigator from last week and Miz says he told her what she wanted to hear. He says he is a devoted father, a loving husband, and a man cooped up in his bedroom because he was depressed about what's happened.

Johnny Gargano's music hits and he heads to the ring. He says Miz was on vacation with his family in Cabo based on pictures his wife posted. He says no one cares because he always takes the easy way out. Gargano says he got caught up in his lie and stopped paying him off. He asks if he's paying Saxton before Miz questions why Gargano got involved. He accuses him of doing it for attention, but Gargano says everyone knows he's a compulsive liar. Gargano says he's lying to himself if he thinks he's pulling off the look he's sporting. Miz says he's sorry and asks to move on so he can be a role model to his kids. Gargano says he should pay Lumis to be a role model and informs him that he went to WWE officials. He says that things will come to an end in two weeks at Survivor Series: WarGames when Miz comes face to face with Lumis. He says if Lumis wins, then Miz has to pay him and he gets a WWE contract. Miz accepts.

A camera man gets in the ring and reveals themself to be Lumis. 

We then head to a video of Dominik Mysterio and Shelton Benjamin getting into a verbal confrontation earlier today.

Back at ringside, Judgment Day heads down. Shelton Benjamin follows. 

Back from the break, we head backstage to Cathy Kelley and Austin Theory. She asks him about his failed cash-in last week and Theory says no one understands him. He says that fans have no idea what the full story was and he exceeded the expectation of being the next big thing. He says that everyone hates him because they can't relate and says everyone wants to see him fail. He says he didn't fail last week because he feels more alive than ever. He says his contract was an anchor on him and everytime that he tried, someone was there to stop him. He says Roman Reigns is untouchable, so the next best option was Seth Rollins. He says Bobby Lashley pulled him out of the ring and if he wouldn't have done that, then he would've been a two time United States Champion.

Dolph Ziggler says that was the worst cash-in ever. He says he tried to teach him a few things, but his ego was too big. He says he's sick of everyone treating him like a kid and tells Ziggler he wants to prove that to him.

We then head to a video hyping up WarGames.

Back at ringside, Damage CTRL heads to the ring, followed by Dana Brooke.
