WWE Raw Results 9/30 - Last Monster Standing Match, LWO Go Head-To-Head With Judgment Day

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE Raw" on September 30, 2024, coming to you live from the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana!

Bronson Reed and Braun Strowman look to settle their issues once and for all tonight as they collide in a Last Monster Standing Match. Reed and Strowman have had no shortage of issues with one another, culminating during last week's edition of "Raw" when they found themselves involved in more than one brawl at the top of the show backstage and in the ring later that night prior to a slated encounter between Strowman and The Miz.

Dominik Mysterio, Carlito, and one half of the reigning WWE World Tag Team Champions JD McDonagh will be going head-to-head with Dragon Lee, Cruz Del Toro, and Joaquin Wilde. The Judgment Day and LWO members have become no strangers to one another over the course of the past several weeks, with Lee defeating Carlito last Monday after a brawl broke out between Dominik, McDonagh, Del Toro, Wilde, and Rey Mysterio.

Speaking of Rey, he will be competing in a match of his own tonight as he goes one-on-one with Xavier Woods while the latter's New Day stablemate Kofi Kingston takes on Chad Gable of American Made. The cracks in the relationship between Woods and Kingston have begun to form, with tensions stemming from Woods' frustrations with being unable to capture tag team gold.

With just days left before they square off in a Hell In A Cell Match at WWE Bad Blood this coming Saturday, Drew McIntyre and CM Punk both have something on their minds to share tonight. McIntyre responded to a message last week that Punk sent to him two weeks ago, invoking his wife and sister before warning him that he would break him in their upcoming Atlanta, Georgia bout.

Additionally, Zoey Stark will be facing Lyra Valkyria in singles action as the issues between them, the rest of Pure Fusion Collective, Natalya, and Zelina Vega continue to grow. Jey Uso will also be appearing on tonight's show after dethroning Bron Breakker as Intercontinental Champion in the main event of last week's show.

We are live! Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore greet audiences at home before we head to a video showcasing some highlights from the Intercontinental Championship match between Jey Uso and Bron Breakker last week.

We Hear From Jey Uso

Fans tell Jey that he deserves the Intercontinental Championship as he says he's now in Evansville. Jey promises to be a fighting champion and fight anyone who wants a shot at his title, then says he appreciates and loves the fans. He thanks them for their support over the years and says it was special for him to walk to the ring with his son behind him. He says it was a hard ride to get to where he is today after everything he went through in The Bloodline, then says he was a twin for his whole wrestling career until now.

Jey says out of everyone in his life, his biggest fan is his mother. He says he spoke to his mom and she told him to go out there, show everyone who he is, and get the Intercontinental Championship. He holds up his belt and tells his mother that they did it.

Bron Breakker's music hits and he makes his way out. He says he's not in the ring to spoil Jey's fun, but rather for the respect he has for the Intercontinental Championship. He says the title has a long history, and after their battle last week, he has the same respect for Jey as he does for the title. He says he's made the importance of the title to him and his family known, then says Jey was the better man last week. Breakker promises not to spear or attack Jey, then says he felt like he should be the first one to come to the ring to congratulate Jey. He extends his hand to Jey, and Jey shakes it. Breakker then looks to head to the back, but Jey stops him and says there's some dogs in Indiana.

Rey Mysterio then makes his way down to the ring. Xavier Woods follows. 

Rey Mysterio vs. Xavier Woods

The bell rings and the two lock up. Woods connects with a dropkick on Rey and goes for a pin, but Rey kicks out and sends Woods crashing into the corner. He charges at him, but Woods catches him with a boot. Rey responds with a hurricanrana and a tijeras that sends Woods crashing out of the ring, then delivers a senton off the apron to level him on the outside.

Back from the break, Rey fires off back elbows on Woods and sends him crashing out of the ring through the ropes. He delivers a springboard moonsault to level Woods, then lands a senton on him off the top rope back in the ring and follows it up with a crossbody. He goes for a pin, but Woods kicks out. Rey then fires off shoulders on Woods' midsection and rains down right hands on him in the corner, but Woods gets Rey in an Electric Chair position.

Rey escapes Woods' grasp and delivers a hurricanrana that sends him crashing into the ropes. He dials it up for a 619, but Woods avoids it. He then pulls off Rey's mask and rolls him up to score the win

Winner: Xavier Woods

We then head backstage and see Sonya Deville and Shayna Baszler try and get in Lyra Valkyria's head by questioning where Natalya and Zelina Vega are. 

Back from the break, we head backstage and see Woods run into Kofi Kingston. He explains to Kingston that pulling off Rey's mask was an accident before Kingston informs Woods that Jey Uso offered him an Intercontinental Championship. He says he told Jey that he wanted Woods to have the title shot instead, and Jey agreed. An excited Woods then tells Kingston that even though he wanted to be alone in his match against Rey, he'll be at ringside for his match against Chad Gable later. 

Back at ringside, Lyra Valkyria makes her way down. Pure Fusion Collective follows.

Zoey Stark (w/ Pure Fusion Collective) vs. Lyra Valkyria

Back from the break, Valkyria fires off right hands on Stark and levels her with a crossbody. She hits a pair of back elbows and a series of kicks, then connects with a hurricanrana and an enzuigiri.

Drew McIntyre & CM Punk Come Face-To-Face One Last Time Before Bad Blood

Back from the break, Adam Pearce and several security guards are waiting in the Hell In A Cell cage in the ring. He explains that there will be no physicality in the upcoming segment, then introduces CM Punk and Drew McIntyre who both make their way down to the ring.

Pearce asks Punk and McIntyre if they have any last words before their Hell In A Cell Match on Saturday, with the latter volunteering to go first. He points out that he's wearing black out of respect for Punk's wife and what he's going to do to him. He says Punk will be gone thanks to him, and says he can talk all day if Punk doesn't want to. He says fans have been watching what's happened for the last ten months, and yet they still chant for Punk.

McIntyre says there was a time in his life where he had no time for hate, but Punk taught him that it's a powerful weapon. He says his hate will die with Punk on Saturday and leaves the ring. He stops himself when Punk grabs a mic.

Punk says he's been called a lot of things throughout his career, and while he's known as "The Voice of the Voiceless", he is the one that's voiceless tonight. He says he's filled with rage and been living in a hotel for the last four months so that his wife doesn't have to see the man that he's become because of McIntyre. He says McIntyre will be begging on his knees on Saturday, praying to him. He promises to see McIntyre in hell.

We then head backstage and see R-Truth crash a conversation between Braun Strowman and The Miz, with the latter looking to talk to the former about crashing his scheduled match against Bronson Reed last week. Strowman then leaves to prepare for his Last Monter Standing Match, and Truth informs Miz that he got them a match against Authors of Pain.

Joaquin Wilde and Carlito tag in, and Wilde takes down Carlito and the interfering Dominik Mysterio and McDonagh. Wilde, Dragon Lee, and Del Toro then all take turns flying off the ropes to take down the three men.

Back from the break, Dominik sends Wilde crashing into the mat with a variation of a neckbreaker and tags in McDonagh. Lee tags in and lands a hurricanrana on McDonagh, then delivers a German suplex to Dominik and connects with a jumping knee on McDonagh. He then takes down an interfering Carlito.

Del Toro tags in and delivers a dropkick to the three Judgment Day members who have been stacked on top of one another in the corner. Wilde tags back in, and Del Toro and Lee hold the ropes for him to fly and level McDonagh. Lee and Del Toro then take flight themselves to take down Dominik and Carlito. Wilde gets McDonagh back in the ring and ascends to the top, but Morgan distracts the referee as Finn Balor pushes Wilde off the top rope. This opens the door for McDonagh to then deliver The Devil Inside to Wilde for the win.

Winners: Judgment Day

Finn Balor and Liv Morgan Send Post Match Messages To The Terror Twins

Balor grabs a mic and addresses Damian Priest. He tells Priest he heard what he had to say last week about ripping out his heart, but says he doesn't have a heart and will prove to the world at Bad Blood that Priest needed Judgment Day rather than the other way around. Morgan then says she'll prove that she's the greatest Women's World Champion of all time when she defeats Rhea Ripley.

Ripley's music hits and she makes her way out. She tells Morgan that she was with Dominik for a long time and knows all about his secrets, then calls for the Shark Cage to be brought out and reveals that Dominik is extremely claustrophobic. He says Dominik will have the best seat in the house on Saturday when Morgan realizes that she's not as good as her and she wins back the Women's World Championship she never lost.

Priest then appears in the ring and takes down McDonagh. He fires off right hands on Balor in the corner as Dominik and Morgan slide out of the ring. Ripley then headbutts Morgan and sends Dominik crashing into the barricade, then sends him bouncing off the side of the Shark Cage. Morgan runs to the back, and Ripley opens up the Shark Cage. She throws Dominik in it and looks to close the door, but a fearful Dominik stops her. Morgan then blindsides Ripley as Balor continues beating down Priest in the ring. He delivers a trio of Coup De Graces to him.

American Made then make their way down to the ring. New Day follows.

Chad Gable (w/ American Made) vs. Kofi Kingston (w/ Xavier Woods)

The bell rings and Gable sends Kingston crashing into the mat. He looks to land a Monkey Flip on Kingston, but Kingston lands on his feet and delivers a springboard splash to Gable.

Kingston rolls up Gable, but Gable reverses the fall and he two continue taking turns pinning one another. Gable charges at Kingston, but Kingston lands a boot on his head.

Kingston escapes and delivers the SOS, then flies off the ring steps to level American Made. Julius looks to take a shot at him, but Woods levels him.

Winner: Chad Gable

Back from the break, GUNTHER makes his way down to the ring.

We Hear From GUNTHER

GUNTHER says he loves every aspect of being World Heavyweight Champion and being the top guy, but the one thing he hates about his life is dealing with Sami Zayn every week. He says he couldn't ask for anyone more annoying than him.

Zayn's music hits and he makes his way out. He tells GUNTHER if he finds it annoying to deal with him every single week, there's a very easy way to put an end to everything once and for all: grant him a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. He says GUNTHER won't do it and he knows why. He demands GUNTHER tell everyone why he won't face Zayn, and GUNTHER says he's tried telling him already. He says Zayn isn't on his level, and Zayn questions why he beat GUNTHER at WrestleMania 40 to become Intercontinental Champion. Zayn says it bothers GUNTHER so much because he things that he's better than him, and says he's scared that Zayn will beat him again.

GUNTHER admits to being afraid, but of his reputation. He says after his legendary reign as Intercontinental Champion, he has a reputation to uphold. He says he was so busy making sure Zayn was embarrassed in front of his family that he embarrassed his own family. He reveals that he flew out his family to WrestleMania, but chose not to parade them around. He recalls his father voicing his disappointment after he was dethroned as Intercontinental Champion, then says he doesn't except Zayn to understand what it's like to have the pressure of your family on your shoulders.

Zayn says GUNTHER crumbled after he beat him in April, then points out that he never asked for a rematch and disappeared off WWE television in the following weeks all because his dad made him feel like a loser. He says GUNTHER is showing his dad that he's a coward.

GUNTHER blindsides Zayn with an attack, then berates him. Zayn fires off right hands on GUNTHER in the corner and connects with an Exploder, then looks to land the Helluva Kick. GUNTHER catches Zayn in a Sleeper, then delivers a powerbomb to him. He then grants Zayn a World Heavyweight Championship match and heads to the back.

Awesome Truth then make their way down to the ring. The Final Testament follows.

Authors of Pain (w/ The Final Testament) vs. Awesome Truth

Truth and Rezar begin the action. The bell rings and Truth wastes no time going after Rezar. He looks to level him with shoulder tackles, but Rezar lands on his feet. Truth then delivers a slam and the Five Knuckle Shuffle to Rezar, but Rezar responds by sending Truth crashing into the mat. Akam tags in as Miz rallies the crowd, then wears Truth down before tagging Rezar back in.

Miz tags in on his side, but instead of going after Rezar, he levels Truth with a boot as Karrion Kross laughs on. Miz storms to the back, opening the door for Authors of Pain to deliver What A Rush to Truth for the win.

Winners: Authors of Pain

Bronson Reed then makes his way down to the ring. Braun Strowman follows.

Bronson Reed vs. Braun Strowman in a Last Monster Standing Match

The bell rings and Strowman runs over Reed with a clothesline. Reed responds with a forearm, but Strowman sends him crashing into the ring steps on the outside.

He drags Reed up them and sends him crashing through the announce desk. The referee begins a ten count, but Reed beats it.

Back from the break, Strowman sends Reed crashing off the apron through a pile of chairs set up on the outside. The referee begins a ten count, but Reed makes it back up to his feet before he can complete it. Strowman connects with a double ax handle on Reed as the pair retreat up the ramp, but Reed sends Strowman crashing into the Titan Tron and grabs a chair. He looks to hit Strowman with it, but Strowman grabs it from him and cracks it across Reed's spine.

Strowman and Reed find themselves on top of a road case, and Reed delivers a Death Valley Driver to Strowman through a pair of tables next to it. The referee begins to count to ten, but both men make it to their feet before he can finish. Strowman then sends Reed crashing over a barricade and back into the ringside area.

Back from another break, Reed sends Strowman crashing through one of the barricade's near the timekeeper's area, with the other already having been broken. The referee begins a ten count, but Strowman beats it. Reed then sends Strowman crashing through another barricade and the referee begins another ten count, but both men make their way up to their feet before they can.

Officials run down to the ring to check on the fans affected by the broken barricade as Reed ascends to the top and delivers a Tsunami to Strowman. He calls for the referee to get back in the ring, but he's busy dealing with the barricade issue. Reed then lands another Tsunami on Strowman and dumps several security guards in the ring. He pushes the referee, but Adam Pearce gets in his face. Reed puts his hands on him, but Jason Jordan and other officials look to pull him off. Strowman then flies off the top and levels Reed, Pearce, Jordan, and all the other officials with a splash.

Strowman dumps Reed back in the ring, and the two teeter on the ropes. Reed then connects with a superplex on Strowman, and the ring completely falls apart. The referee then begins a ten count, but Seth "Freakin" Rollins appears out of nowhere and connects with a Curb Stomp on Reed using the ring steps to ensure he stays down. Strowman makes it to his feet before the referee finishes the count, and is the Last Monster Standing.

Winner: Braun Strowman

We see Rollins looking pleased with himself as the show goes off the air.
