Solo Dodge The Warning Shots Like The Matrix...And Royce Keys Has Returned
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
The video begins with a recap of Monday Night Raw, highlighting how LA Knight addressed Roman Reigns' avoidance of a fair one-on-one match by pointing out that Reigns has been defeating opponents like CM Punk and Seth Rollins individually while seemingly using family members to dodge LA Knight. This tension escalated when Solo appeared in his comedic persona, engaging with LA Knight before being interrupted by Jimmy and Jay Uso, who issued a "warning shot" by hitting Solo with steel steps. The segment was played for laughs as Solo dodged the attack like he was in *The Matrix*, but it ultimately set up a potential tag team match between the Usos and LA Knight/Solo, showcasing the ongoing friction within the Bloodline faction.
Following the opening segments, the show featured a women's match where Stephanie Romano lost to Roxanne Perez despite interference from Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch, leading to commentary about Roxanne being used as a sacrificial pawn for Judgment Day losses similar to JD McDonagh. The highlight of the night was the semifinal match between Dragon Lee and Ray Phoenix, which was praised as an incredible contest that knocked out the park. Although Ray Phoenix won to advance to the finals against Penta, the narrator expressed excitement for their upcoming rematch, suggesting it could be another match of the night given the high quality of both competitors.
The main event segment focused on a contract signing involving Oba Femi and Braun Strowman, where Strowman aggressively dismissed Oba's achievements by citing his own injury as the reason for the change in plans rather than giving Oba credit for beating Brock Lesnar twice. The situation turned violent when Paul Heyman attempted to mediate but was ignored, leading Strowman to attack Oba while Austin Theory joined in. Oba Femi fought back, tossing Strowman out of the ring and throwing Theory onto a table, signaling that Sunday Night's main event will likely require help from Bronson Reed for Strowman to secure a win, as a clean victory would end the feud too quickly.
The show concluded with a dramatic surprise appearance by Royce Isaacs and members of OTM, who attacked everyone in the ring, including LA Knight, Solo, and the Usos. Royce Isaacs explained his betrayal by stating that no one came to help him when he was sent to the Gulag by Jacob Fatu, so he decided to take revenge on those who abandoned him. This attack destroyed all four participants in the tag team match, leaving OTM and Royce Isaacs standing tall while fans booed them. The narrator speculated on future storylines for War Games, suggesting that Jacob Fatu might defect from the Bloodline to align with Solo and LA Knight, potentially setting up a multi-man war game scenario involving three teams of three.

What's good y'all? It's your boy Ross
back at again with another video. So, we
got to talk about what happened on this
episode of Monday Night Raw. This was
another good episode in my opinion.
There's some things that they're setting
up um down the road for obviously Sunday
Night's main event and I do think maybe
potentially with how Raw ended maybe
setting up some things for what may go
down at Survivor Series in War Games.
But nevertheless, we're going to talk
about that when we get to it. First
things first, gota talk about how the
show started off. Started off with LA
Knight and LA Knight pretty much
addressing Roman Reigns saying, you
know, he saw that Roman Reigns beat CM
Punk by himself at WrestleMania. Then he
saw that Roman Reigns beat Seth Rollins
by himself at SummerSlam. But when it
comes to getting his one onone fair runs
with LA Night, it seems like he's
ducking and dodging. And it seems like
he's sending family members anytime he
says something at LA Night. And then in
LA Knight's mind, he feels like he
created a tournament to not have LA
Night face him, which we all know that's
obviously not what really happened. Ray
came up to Roman about the tournament.
But nevertheless, LA's going with the
idea that Roman facilitated this all
luchador tournament so LA Knight
couldn't face him. So basically he's
calling Roman scared, ducking and
dodging. Then he uh also called out Solo
to come out there and Solo came out
there and Solo he's in his bag. He's in
this comedic role where it works. It's
not cringy. It's not hokey. It's
actually pretty funny. So Solo comes out
there
and he, you know, he's doing the little
pew, you know, he's doing the Yeah. and
you know kind of just going back and
forth with LA night and uh he's just
having fun man. He's like I appreciate
you for you know helping me you know
helping me out last uh last week. I
really do appreciate that you know.
Yeah. And LA's like hey man you can't be
taking these type of you can't I let you
get the yeah chance off you know a
couple times like my my my stick off but
I can't be letting you get my my sayings
off too many more times. This is a
warning shot. So, they're making fun of
J uh uh Jay and then um A Solo hit the
and that's when Jimmy and Jay come out
there. They're upset. They got the black
oola followers on and they're basically
like, man, Solo, you got to pay for what
you did. You got you got you got a
receipt coming your way. You gonna have
to answer for that for attacking the
tribal chief. You got you got hell to
pay. But tonight we going to go ahead.
You know what I'm saying? We can set up
set up a match right now. Basically
giving them uh this is their warning
shot. Well, they didn't initially um put
out the idea for a match, but you knew
both of them coming out LA Night and
Solo in the ring. You knew it was going
to be a tag team match, but basically
they came out there to give uh them a
warning shot. That's what Jay said. And
I love when Jay hit the this is your
warning shot bow. Solo is doing the
matrix like dodging it. I thought that
was hilarious. Solo's great. Solo
is truly fantastic in this comedic role.
I like it. Him doing the Matrix, dodging
the bullet while Jimmy and Jay's getting
mad. They go to say, "Hey, you know
what? We could run it tonight. Let's
have a tag team match. Let's go at it.
So, that's how the show started off.
Now, they did uh end up having a
one-on-one one-on-one match with
Stephanie versus Roxan, and you kind of
figured how this was going to play out.
Um, you have Raquel and Liv out there as
well. Um, the crowd wasn't really too
invested into this match and towards the
end, Becky did tell Stephanie that it's
going to be like a threeon-one out
there. You know that, right? But of
course, dumb babyface logic. I'm going
to go out there knowing that uh two
other people are going to be there to
try to cost me in the match. Ultimately,
that that's what ends up happening. But
Becky comes out there to even up the
odds. And Roxan ends up losing this
match. Roxan is the loser in Judgment
Day. Right up there with JD McDunn. When
people need to lose in the Judgment Day,
they send Roxan or JD. And the fact that
we're comparing Roxan to JD in the same
breath kind of sucks. So, um, that's
just an unfortunate situation. Um,
hopefully at some point maybe she can
win Money in the Bank this year. I think
that would be a much needed character
boost because uh she could really
utilize some type of momentum and maybe
they set up a feud with Roxan versus Liv
and you know maybe Roxan cashing in on
Liv Morgan. I don't know. But right now
when it comes to people losing in
Judgment Day, it's gonna either be
Roxanne or it's gonna be JD. So that's
what happened there. Um they're
definitely setting up this this
situation with Becky and um Stephanie.
They're setting up uh and probably live
having some type of triple threat type
situation here. Maybe triple threat
match at some point. But Stephanie uh
did get uh some help from Becky Lynch.
Becky Lynch came out there to help her
out. So, and Beck is like, "You owe me.
You owe me again." So, you know, you you
you definitely gonna have to repay on
that. So, we'll see how that plays out,
but I am liking what they're doing, at
least with the women's division at the
top, and I'm I'm interested to see how
things are going to ultimately uh pan
out. So, we got to talk about um one of
the qual well, not qualifying matches,
but one the semifinals for uh to see
who's going to be facing Roman Reigns uh
to be the number one contender when they
go to Mexico City for the um
um World Heavyweight Championship and
you had
Dragon Lee versus Ray Phoenix. This
match was match of the night. This was
really, really, really good. They
knocked it out the park. I enjoyed this
match all the way through. Great stuff
from Dragon Lee. Dragon Lee's a really
great talent if given the time and
opportunity for sure. This was a
fantastic match, match of the night.
crowd was loving every bit of it, but
you kind of knew Ray Phoenix was going
to win in this match only because on the
other side they had the other semifinals
uh to see who was going to win advance
and obviously Penta end up beating Le
Parker in that one and then you had Ray
Phoenix and Penta kind of had a stare
down, embrace each other and I think
next week that match is going to be
match of the night. These guys are gonna
knock it out the park and I can't wait
to see how that plays out. So, hey, I
will say this. If you miss Monday Night
Raw, go check out uh Ray Phoenix versus
Dragon Lee. Very great match. I mean, it
could you could have put that on a PO if
you wanted to. It was that entertaining.
Next, got to talk about the contract
signing. Oba Femi and Braun Breaker with
Paul Heyaymon in the middle. I think
Adam Pierce was out there as well. Oba
comes out there. Of course, the Oba
Chance going crazy for Oba. Then,
um,
Bronn Breaker comes out there. Bron
Breaker come out there and he starts
talking and he basically saying that he
doesn't really feel like Oba deserves to
be even talking about him being the
future. He basically said, "Oh, you you
beat a couple you I mean, you squashed a
couple guys. You beat Brock Lesnar. like
you don't even have a championship to
show for it, which is kind of a weak
excuse cuz like it's Brock Lesnar
and we're not going to act like he ain't
one of the most decorated individuals
that WWE has ever had. Like it's Brock
Lesnar. He made it he's trying to make
it come off as if it was just some
random somebody that has been like, "No,
it's Brock Lesnar. There's not too many
people that can say they beaten Brock
Lesnar, not once, but twice and twice
did the same here. There's not many
people of that caliber that can say that
in his entire career, honestly. So, he
basically no selling what Oba has done.
And basically, he said pretty much, I'm
supposed to be in that spot cuz I
injured myself. No one else injured me
in the back. I injured myself. And this
is why things had changed because eight
months ago or however however many
months ago the crowd was chanting my
name and barking like you know you know
the dogs were barking the same thing
that they're doing now. You literally
just took my spot. That's all this is.
And I like how he's just like look bro
look I'm I'm not even going to sit up
here and act like I'mma look past you
cuz you're you know a formidable
opponent. I know who you are. If this
was like O2 and John Cena was around, I
could see you overtaking that,
overtaking him, being the face of the
company. If this was like 2015 and, you
know, he kind of sent some shots at
Roman or you can allude that maybe he
was talking about Roman when there was a
big dog around, you know, I could have,
if you would have debuted thin, I think
you could have been the guy. But it's
2026 and OAF is here. I'm here and I'm
sorry that it's happened to you, but
you're not the guy. You're not going to
be the face of the company, especially
if I'm around. So,
for him at this point, Oba's just
letting it be known like you just was at
the wrong place at the wrong time. It's
unfortunate that you got injured, but
this is just what it is. So, now
Braun signs the contract and then he
says, "All right, sign the contract or
you're going to have your daddy sign for
you." And he's talking to Paul Heyaymon.
and he gives it to Paul Heymon. He's
like, "Hey, Paul, you should go ahead
and sign that contract. I mean, y'all
y'all buddy buddy. Y'all cool. Y'all
shaking hands with each other. Go ahead
sign the contract." Now, there was also
a small little detail and I don't know
if you guys picked this up and I forgot
to mention this, but when Oba got in the
ring, Oba and Paul and shook hands. When
Braun Breaker got in the ring, he was
trying to shake Paul's hand, but Paul
was just kind of like kind of flustered.
He didn't really shake his hand. So, I
want I don't know if y'all saw that, but
that's definitely I paid attention to
that. And it comes back full circle cuz
he's like, "You always shaking his hand.
Y'all buddy buddy. Why don't you sign a
contract for him?" And that that was
when he used that moment to uh sneak
attack Oba. start attacking Oba. Then
Oba grabs him by the throat, start, you
know, returning some shots at him, uh,
at AB Breaker in the corner. Then Austin
Theory comes in there and then they
start stomping down on
on Oba, tag teaming him and Austin is
holding up Oba and Braun Breaker is
going to run the ropes but Oba scouts it
puts up the the gives him like a big
boot as he's running trying to hit him
with a spear and then he ends up tossing
Braun Breaker out of the ring over the
over the top rope and he throws uh
Austin Theory like a sack of potatoes
straight to the the table that was in
the middle of the ring and he looking
right at Braun Breaker. What's up, bro?
Get back in the ring. If this is what
you want, come on. Bron Breaker didn't
get back in the ring. He signed the
contract and he let him know, bro,
Sunday night's main event, there ain't
going to be no running for me, bro. You
gonna get this work. This was a great
segment. I liked it. Honestly,
I could see a situation. I don't know if
Bronson Reed is ready to come back, if
he's able to come back, but I can see a
situation. The only way
Oba loses this match because it can't
just be Austin Theory. Austin Theory is
not enough. No, no, no, no, no. We're
talking about a guy that took seven FIS
and went through a table and was still
moving.
It has to be Bronson Reed.
Bronson Reed has to be that deciding
factor to really be something that could
give Braun Breaker the win. It won't be
a clean win. It will be a win with the
assist of Bronn Breaker. I think that
works. That works because you want to at
least be able to continue this feud
possibly. You don't want Braraw Breaker
to lose immediately at once they start
feuding because
why should we care if he loses to him
clean the first time? You know what I'm
saying? So, there needs to be some type
of shenanigans involved where Braun can
be like, "See, I beat the guy." And it's
like, "No, no, no, no, no. You really
didn't beat him. Bronson Reed and other
people got involved to help you beat him
if they were going to do something like
that." But we'll see. I'm not sure. But
that's kind of where my head is leaning
towards. I do think maybe Braun Breaker
will get the win, but not clean though
because if Braun loses clean, then you
can kind of hang up the feud cuz I mean,
who would really care at that point? You
got to kind of sell this for maybe
multiple matches if possible. But
nevertheless, I enjoyed that segment and
I'm looking forward to seeing how things
are going to play out um for Saturday
nights, not Saturday night, Sunday
night's main event.
And speaking of the main event, um
before we get to that, before we get to
the tag team match with the Usos versus
Ellen Knight and Solo,
there's a segment with Jacob Fatu.
Jacob's in the back and you have Jimmy
and Jay and he's basically, you know,
telling them, you know, we're about to
run to play tonight. You just stay back
there. And Jacob's like, bro, I ain't
got to listen to you and I especially
don't have to listen to your punk ass.
And oh, this is also in response to Jay
was basically like, "Bro, you ain't even
do nothing last week. You just sat
there." And Jacob's telling him, "Hey, I
was running the play. Roman told me to
don't do nothing, so I didn't do
nothing." So then Jay proceeds to tell
him, "Well, don't do nothing now cuz we
going to run the play. We got this." And
Jacob's like, "Hey, I ain't got to
listen to you." And then they put up the
black oola followers like, "We captains
now. You have to listen to us. We ain't
got no other choice. So stay your punk
ass back here. We gonna run the play.
This obviously plays into what happens
towards the end of the show. So they're
having their match and all of a sudden
towards the end you have
you have um
Royce Keys come out there. Royce Keys
and two other guys come out there. They
all got um they all got the uh the black
wife beaters on packing up everyone and
you're like what's going on? Like it's a
surprise to see Royce Keys cuz Roy Keys
they they packed him up. So I was
thinking they were going to have him
packed up for a while but apparently
not. Royce Keys didn't come by himself.
He had two other gentlemen with him.
Obviously all of them had the the the
wife beaters on and they packing up LA
night. Packing up LA. Packing up Jimmy
that's in the ring still. And they
finally take their mask off and it's OTM
out the mud. So, you know, makes sense.
You know, he would align with them. You
know, Royce Keys didn't got it out the
mud himself. So, OTM is has aligned with
Royce Keys and they continuous they can
they they continuously attacking
everybody that's out there. Hell, if you
was a ref, you was liable to get packed
up. Then they start targeting Jay,
hitting him with the steel steps, and
they start targeting
um Solo. Now, some would be like, why
would he attack Solo? They were
literally uh you know, on the same page
when it came to the bloodline. Like,
they were all on the same page. Why are
they attacking Solo? Well,
basically, you hear Royce Key say, "Man,
you didn't you didn't help me. I was by
myself. Y'all let y'all let them beat,
you know, y'all let them take me out.
Y'all didn't help me. Basically, if you
guys remember when Royce Keys was
getting sent to the Goolags by Jacob,
nobody came out there to help him.
Nobody. Not LA night, not solo. They
left him solo to get packed up. So, no
one came out there. So, that's why he's
attacking him. That's his reason. I'm
sure he's going to explain on that next
week, but that's his reason. No one came
out there to help me, so screw y'all.
I'm good on y'all. So, he packs up Solo,
he packs up Jay, and then they end up
putting Jimmy through the table, OTM,
and then he ends up hitting LA Knight
with the steel steps, and they destroy
every single one that was in that match.
All four of these guys get destroyed and
OTM and Royce Keys is standing tall in
the middle of the ring. They got booed
by the fans, but if you want to be
honest, Royce is just getting his
revenge. The only downside is obviously
Solo and uh LA Knight, they got, you
know, the good guys in this situation,
they were collateral damage,
unfortunately. But nevertheless, this
was a nice way to end off the show. And
the reason why I said at the beginning
of the show, this could possibly have
some war gang implications
because
the way things are looking right now,
you got Romy. I said Romy. Who the
is Romy? Roman, Jimmy, and Jay. I don't
think Jacob's going to be there too
long. I don't I don't I I don't think
he's going to want to keep dealing with
these captains saying to him all
the time. So, I don't think Jacob's
going to be there for too long. I just
don't see it happening. So, I do think
Jimmy and Jay not going nowhere. Jimmy J
and Roman, that's going to be a thing. I
don't think Jacob is going to be
involved with them for too long. Now, we
got Royce Keys and OTM. So, they're
they're good where they at. I don't
think Solo in LA is gonna join up with
them because they just got attacked bomb
and most likely Russ is not trying to
affiliate with them anyway because he
good with the people he got. I could see
a situation where maybe
Jacob aligns himself with LA Knight and
Solo. Now, of course, LA Knight's gonna
not gonna like that but he trusts
Solo, and Solo did bring in Jacob
because Jacob's gonna finally see what
the hell's going on, and he's gonna
like, I'm out of this I can see
that. Now, I'm just spitballing cuz I
can see them want to do something
different for this War Games and having
a multi-man
war game situation where it's like three
3v3 for like three, you know, v3 v3 type
situation. I don't know if that's gonna
happen. I don't know how that would
look, but I could see them wanting to do
something different for this War Games
where it's three teams of three going at
each other in the War Games match. They
could do something like that. They
could, you know, so I don't know. But
that's what it's kind of leaning towards
because if you're going to give Roy Keys
some help, it only makes sense that
Jacob at some point defects. And the
only other team he could defect to would
be Solo. And Solo would be willing to do
it because he understands because Solo
has been in the same situation that
Jacob has been. And Jacob did try to
warn him. I mean, Solo did try to warn
Jacob. The only person that may not like
it is LA Knight. And that's why LA
Knight's talk. You know, he said earlier
in the backstage segment, "Hey, I'm
trusting you. Don't don't make me regret
this." And I can see there be some issue
if he is if Solo is trying to talk Jacob
out of leaving the bloodline. So, I
don't know. I'm just kind of spitballing
here. But, nevertheless, I definitely
did enjoy this show and we'll see how
things play out. Comment down below. Let
me know what was your favorite part of
the of Monday Night Raw. And did you
guys enjoy this uh tonight's episode?
But I appreciate all love sport. Road to
20K. Appreciate y'all kicking me. See
you on the next one. Peace.
