Vote on Raw in this week's polls and make sure to leave comments below about what you thought about the show.
Opening
Mick Foley confronted Stephanie over whether or not she knew that Triple H was going to interfere in the match. Mick asked why he should believe her and she said it was because she was embarrassed and she had nothing to do with it. After an impassioned plea, Mick claimed he believed her because if she was lying, she would be both a very good liar and a very bad person and he didn't want to believe that.
In the ring, Mick and Stephanie introduced the new Universal Champion Kevin Owens. KO came out in a suit and addressed the crowd who had been chanting that he deserved it. He told the crowd he knew he deserved it and didn't need their acknowledgement. He further commented that he had already done 90% of the work and didn't need Triple H. KO then dubbed Raw the Kevin Owens show.
Seth Rollins then came to the ring and addressed Owens. KO asked what he wanted but Seth told him it wasn't about him and told him to shut up. Rollins then accused Steph of stabbing him in the back. Rollins accused KO of being Triple H's chosen one since he showed up in NXT. Rollins threatened to burn the show to the ground.
KO interrupted Rollins and called him a failure. Rollins then began beating KO out of the ring. Stephanie then got angry and suspended him indefinitely. Mick immediately overturned that suspension, to Steph's shock. He said he was the match maker and although he doesn't like Seth, he is important to the show. He then made the match between Rollins and Owens at Clash of Champions.
Behind the scenes, Steph told Mick that if he ever usurped her authority again, she would fire him. Mick defended his actions. KO then confronted Mick, claiming he was rewarding Rollins with a title match. Foley then put KO in a match with Sami Zayn. Chris Jericho than verbally attacked Foley for disrespecting KO, the longest reigning Universal champion of all time. Stephanie than demanded that Jericho not talk to Mick Foley in such a way. Foley then put Jericho in a match with Seth Rollins.

Nia Jax vs Ann Esposito

OLD FART Segment
Gallows and Anderson announced an old satirical version of the New Day called the Old Day where they basically made old man jokes about going to the bathroom. Eventually the New Day interrupted it. The New Day played off the fact that the Old Day couldn't really be them from the future because it would create a paradox if they touched each other. Instead the New Day chased the Club out of the ring. They then beat up the Old Day.
