WWE RAW REPORT: PRIEST VERSUS ROLLINS, RING GENERAL VS RULES GENERAL, MIZTV WITH CODY, MORE QUALIFIERS FOR MITB, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2023-06-05 23:00:00

We are back and Miz is in the ring.

He welcomes everyone to MizTV.   He says he needed to secure a special guest worthy of a night like tonight.  He brings out his guest, Cody Rhodes.

Miz tells Cody he looks 'dashing' tonight.  He asks Cody about what he said last week when he challenged Brock Lesnar, the man who beat him at Night of Champions and broke his arm and challenged Brock to a fight.  Miz asks if that is stupid.

Cody calls Miz 'Mike' and Miz corrects Cody.  Cody says he hadn't heard it called stupid until now.  He heard people say it was crazy and some said it took balls and Cody says Miz knows a little something about that.  The Beast is on his annual hibernation so we won't be seeing him for a while.

Miz says he likes controversy and drama on MizTV and he has a surprise.  It is bigger than Brock Lesnar being here.  Miz says he wanted to bring out a man who has dealt with multi generational problems.

Miz brings out Dominik Mysterio and he is joined by Rhea Ripley and Miz dances like he is Seth Rollins.

Rhea interrupts Miz and says that Dom has something to say.

Cody tells the people not to boo Dom.  Rhea tells everyone to show respect to her Latino Heat.

Dom says he was happy when Miz invited him out here.  You were talking last week like you were the big dog in the yard.  For someone who has done hard time, you are a little birdie with a broken wing.  Dom says he watched Cody run off a list of crappy towns for Brock to find out.  Dom says that Cody is a bad father.  Dom says Cody should be taking care of his baby girl, but you are here.  You are just like Rey, a deadbeat dad.

Cody says the 15 minutes Dom spent in prison was tough.  It was hard times indeed.  Cody says Dom has a worse prison tattoo than his.  You had a match at Wrestlemania, but it was more of a public spanking.  Nobody is perfect.  Cody says he knows that Rey has made some terrible mistakes because he is looking at one.

Rhea and Dom start to walk away and Cody turns his back and Dom slaps Cody and then hides behind Rhea.

Rhea tells Cody to hit her.  

Dom and Rhea leave the ring.

Since Rhea and Dom weren't in the ring any more, Cody hits Miz with the cast.

Damian Priest is in the back getting ready for his match against Seth Rollins.

Paul Heyman is in the locker room and he introduces himself.  He says he wants to invite everyone to join him when a family drama plays out in front of your eyes.  Jey Uso will make his historic choice.  Paul says he is tasked with providing unpleasant news and he has to deliver it, even if he has to deliver it to Roman Reigns.  This is one of those times.  The news is not pleasant.  It will rip apart the entire Anoa'i/Fatu dynasty.  Jey will make his choice and Jey will choose and stand by his brother . . .
