• Matt Hardy won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, assisted by Bray Wyatt who returned apparently in Matt's service.
  

• Stephanie opened the show, calling the fans stinky foreigners with no class for mocking the beating she took. She brought out Ronda Rousey and attempted to gladhand her, saying the two could work together to their mutual benefit. They embraced and the crowd booed, but then Ronda put Stephanie in the armbar to a giant pop. Steph sold the poo poo out of this, screaming and begging and pleading. Afterwards the crowd chanted,"YOU DESERVE IT!" and then sang the goodbye song to her as she was helped from the ring. The ring announcer asked the crowd to please show her some respect, which got exactly the reaction expected.
  
• The commentators noted that this "non-traditional" crowd will sometimes boo who crowds normally cheer. This was said directly after Stephanie McMahon got booed
  
• Nia came out to a strong reaction. Alexa and Mickie came out and tried to continue mocking her but she shut them down and introduced her tag team partner as Ember Moon.
  
• Nia and Ember defeated Alexa and Mickie, with Ember hitting the Eclipse on Alexa.
  
• Backstage, Kurt was on the phone discussing Ember joining the Raw roster when Braun Strowman showed up with a child called Nicholas. Braun relinquished the Raw titles due to Nicholas' scheduling conflict (he's in the 4th grade) but promised once he graduated, they would be back for the titles.
  
• No Way Jose is now a member of the Raw roster. He debuted with an accompanying group of dancers ala Adam Rose, and quickly defeated the local jobber he was up again.
  
• Kurt Angle was watching backstage when he was joined by The Bar, who asked when Kurt was going to give their tag titles back. He told them the tag titles would be decided at the Greatest Royal Rumble, and their opponents would be decided over a series of qualifying matches called the Tag Team Eliminator.
  
• The Revival defeated the Good Brothers, advancing to the next round in the Tag Team Eliminator.
  
• Seth Rollins came out to celebrate his IC Title win making him the third of the Shield to become a Grand Slam Champion. Finn Balor came out and congratulated Seth but reminded him that Seth pinned Miz but didn't pin Balor. Balor wanted to be the first to challenge him for the IC Belt. Seth accepted, but then The Miz
  
• Miz complained that he had to change his normal strategy (use Miztourage to cheat) to avoid Seth or Finn complaining when he won, which was why he lost! He claimed his baby cried when he lost, which made Maryse cry, which made Miz cry too. Seth mocked him and said if he wanted his rematch then they could do it right now. Miz fired up the crowd and then refused to invoke his rematch clause, saying he would face Seth for the title at Backlash.
  
• Miz offered Fin and Seth a match right now, The Miztourage and himself against the two of them. They were going to accept when Jeff Hardy returned to even things up. Both sides squared up, but then Miz and the Miztourage took off.
  
• Sasha lost to Mandy Rose, thanks to Bayley trying to get involved and accidentally hitting Sasha instead. Afterwards, Bayley looked upset but walked off without apologizing, and Sasha stormed after her.
  
• Paige got on the mic and informed everybody that her neck issues meant she had no choice but to retire. This was extremely depressing and the crowd got fully behind her and chanted that this was her house. She noted the support she'd had from Daniel Bryan and Edge who had suffered similar career-ending injuries, and that she took hope from Bryan's return but also the way Edge has built an entirely new life for himself. For now though, she is retired, and needs to find some other new goal in life. She is only 25 years old.
  
• Elias was doing a concert (and the crowd loved him) when Bobby Lashley interupted to a massive pop from the crowd. Lashley demolished Elias, including an impressive one-armed delayed vertical suplex.
  
• Kurt was talking about Lashley on the phone backstage when Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn showed up in suits with hangdog expressions, asking if Kurt had heard about their "management issues" in Smackdown. Kurt said he'd heard TNA was hiring, and the two immediately turned on each other insisting that he only needed to hire one of them. Kurt took them up on that, they could have a match tonight and the winner and ONLY the winner could have a spot on the roster.
  
• Heath Slater and Rhyno are not in the Tag Team Eliminator, so Heath demanded ANY tag team come out to face them. The Authors of Pain answered the challenge. They destroyed Heath and Rhyno didn't even get in. As they left the ring, they told Paul Ellering to remain behind, declaring they no longer needed him.
  
• Roman Reigns will get another shot at the Universal Championship when he faces Brock at The Greatest Royal Rumble in a Steel Cage match.
  
• Roman came out and made a kinda bizarre promo making what seemed to be allusions to the idea that the finish had been changed due to contract negotiations or something? He complained he learned about his match at The Greatest Royal Rumble on the Internet, but insisted that if they keep putting him up against Brock, eventually he will win the title.
  
• Samoa Joe came out and called him a failure who talked big and then couldn't deliver. Crowd was going crazy for Joe. He said when all is said and done, Joe will be waiting at Backlash.
  
• Titus and Apollo waited for their opponents, revealed to be the team of Woken Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt, acting in total concert. Both guys have taken on the mannerisms of the other, worked well together, and won the match.
  
• Sami and Kevin had a really good match but it went to a No Contest, meaning neither man won and therefore neither would be joining the Raw roster. The crowd was upset and they cut away without really getting to see much of Kevin or Sami's reaction.
  
• Woken Matt met with Jeff backstage, and Matt introduced Jeff to Bray Wyatt. Jeff took on all the typical Broken mannerisms, hugged Bray and watched them leave together. Seth and Finn gave Jeff faces and he replied with a happy shrug since apparently he just plays along with whatever his brother is doing at any given time vv
  
• Seth Rollins, Finn Balor and Jeff Hardy defeated The Miz and The Miztourage in a six-man tag. Seth hit the Curb Stomp and got the pin on Miz. Afterwards they took turns hitting their finishers on Bo and Axel, which had an odd but fun House Show/Dark Match ending feel to it.
  
• Next week is the Superstar Shakeup to mix up the rosters between Raw and Smackdown.
  

• Shane McMahon opened the show (boo!) where he thanked the fans for a great Wrestlemania, and congratulated Daniel Bryan for his return and acknowledged that as a full time wrestler once more, he was accepting Bryan's resignation as Smackdown General Manager. The new GM is... Paige!
  
• Paige's first official act was to book Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles
  
• The Usos defeated The New Day in a real good match (better than the Mania 3-way) to get the title shot against the Bludgeon Brothers.
  
• In a pre-taped segment, Nattie cut off Naomi as she was being interviewed about winning the Women's Battle Royal. Naomi took her insults as a challenge to a match.
  
• Naomi (eventually) defeated Nattie in a singles match.
  
• Renee Young (in an amazing jacket) interviewed Shinsuke Nakamura about punching AJ Styles on the dick at Wrestlemania, where he gave a beautifully sarcastic apology and then insisted "no speak English" when Renee inquired further.
  
• Charlotte came out and thanked Asuka for taking her to the limit at Wrestlemania. She celebrated having retained her title and asked who was next, and the answer turned out to be Peyton Royce and Billie Kay from NXT who debuted together. They said Charlotte's match was "pretty good, not great", mocked her habit of thanking everybody, and said she needed to stop focusing on the past and look to the future, which was them. Charlotte tried to fight them but they outnumbered and were able to deliver a beating.
  
• After Peyton and Billie left, Carmella rushed down and cashed in her MITB briefcase. After a gigantically long delay by the ref and timekeeper, they finally rang the bell and Carmella superkicked Charlotte, pinned her and became the new Women's Champion.
  
• Randy Orton defeated Bobby Roode and Rusev in a triple threat to decide Jinder Mahal's Backlash opponent. Crowd was super into Rusev the entire match but he wasn't involved in the finish at all.
  
• Carmella gave a tearful backstage promo where she gave thanks where it was due.... to herself!
  
• Daniel Bryan defeated AJ Styles by DQ when Shinsuke Nakamura jumped into the ring and hit Bryan with the Kinshasa. Afterwards he lowblowed AJ Styles again, then did it AGAIN! The crowd was furious and there was even a "YOU SUCK!" chant directed at Nakamura who looked to be having the time of his life.
