WWE Raw Results 10/20 - Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed & Paul Heyman Appear, Three Championships On The Line
Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s live coverage for "WWE Raw" on October 20, 2025, coming to you live from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California!
After CM Punk defeated Jey Uso and LA Knight to become the new Number One Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of last Monday's edition of "Raw", titleholder Seth Rollins and his Vision stablemates Bronson Reed, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman came to the ring to confront him and beat him down. However, the tides suddenly shifted when Breakker and Reed subsequently blindsided Rollins with an attack when they delivered a spear and Tusnami to him as Heyman watched on and later raised their hands. Following such, Breakker, Reed, and Heyman will all be appearing on tonight's show while "Raw" General Manager Adam Pearce addresses the future of Rollins and the World Heavyweight Championship.
Becky Lynch will be putting the Women's Intercontinental Championship on the line for the first time since retaining against Nikki Bella at WWE Clash In Paris on August 31 as she defends against Maxxine Dupri. While Lynch previously retained her title against Dupri on the August 11 episode of "Raw", Dupri managed to score a win against Lynch via countout on the October 6 edition of "Raw" in a non-title match between them.
Two other titles will also be up for grabs tonight, as Rusev challenges Dominik Mysterio for the Intercontinental Championship while Dominik's Judgment Day stablemates Finn Balor and JD McDonagh defend their World Tag Team Championship against recent allies AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. While Styles, Lee, and Penta emerged victorious against Balor, McDonagh, and Dominik in a Six Man Tag Team Match on October 6, Rusev was previously unsuccessful in dethroning Dominik as Intercontinental Champion on the September 29 episode of "Raw".
We are live! Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore greet audiences at home before throwing it to a video of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed betraying Seth Rollins last week.
Back at ringside, Adam Pearce is waiting in the ring.
Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman Confront Adam Pearce
Pearce welcomes fans to "Raw", but before he can continue, we see a car pulling up on the Titan Tron. Bron Breakker emerges holding the World Heavyweight Championship belt, and makes his way to the ring alongside Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman.
Pearce says he wants Breakker, Reed, and Heyman to hear something directly from him. He says he knew Seth Rollins was banged up after Crown Jewel, but no one will know how badly that truly was because of Breakker and Reed. He reveals Rollins just had major surgery because of Breakker and Reed, then says he'll be out of action for a while and strips Seth Rollins of the World Heavyweight Championship. He says a new World Heavyweight Champion will be crowned at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event on November 1, and the new Number One Contender CM Punk will face the winner of a Battle Royal taking place tonight.
Pearce demands that Breakker hand him the World Heavyweight Championship belt, but Breakker asks Pearce what happens if he doesn't. Pearce tells Breakker he needs him to hand him the World Heavyweight Championship belt respectfully, but Breakker demands that Pearce tell him please. Pearce tells Breakker to please hand over the World Heavyweight Championship belt, and Breakker hands it to Heyman who then gives it to Pearce.
As Pearce leaves the ring with the title belt, Heyman looks to address the question of why everyone is bad at himself, Breakker, and Reed. He says it's easy to boo the heel characters, but questions what they did to deserve this and says The Vision never had anything to do with Rollins. He says he didn't betray Roman Reigns or CM Punk to betray Rollins, but to help make Bron Breakker the future of the business. He says he chose Vision over Bloodline, then says Breakker and Reed are both WrestleMania main eventers. He says that's not revisionist history, but a revision of the future.
We then head backstage and see Judgment Day holding a strategy meeting for tonight without Dominik Mysterio. Roxanne Perez assures Dominik that everything is okay after Finn Balor and JD McDonagh.
