Here are the WWE Raw results for September 17, 2018. The show featured The Undertaker's response to Triple H, plus the fallout from Brock Lesnar's run-in on Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman at Hell in a Cell and much more.
WWE Raw Results:
- The show opens with Roman Reigns addressing the main event at Hell in a Cell and telling Lesnar if he wants a rematch he'll give it to him. Braun Strowman shows up and says he should get the chance to go after Lesnar, citing Lesnar ruining two cash-in attempts. Baron Corbin arrives and announces they will both be facing Lesnar in a triple-threat match for the Universal Championship at WWE Crown Jewel - the official name of the second Saudi Arabia show on Nov. 2. Paul Heyman arrives, without Lesnar, and cuts a promo with the Hell in a Cell door Brock kicked down next to him. He leaves as Strowman chases him off the stage, and then Corbin announces that he's putting Reigns in a championship match in the main event against Baron Corbin.
1. Drew McIntyre defeated Dean Ambrose. Ambrose avoids a count out, getting back in the ring at 9, but gets hit with a Claymore kick and McIntyre pins him.
- Corbin runs into McIntyre and Ziggler backstage and discusses how they're going to take out The Shield, convincing Ziggler, who initially declines due to being hurt, to invoke his IC title rematch clause on Seth Rollins because Rollins isn't even in the building due to injuries from falling through a table off the cell last night.
