WWE Monday Night Raw Results – October 20, 2025
Live from: Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis, Indiana
Commentary Team: Wade Barrett and Pat McAfee
Opening Segment 🌟
The show opens to an explosion of fireworks and the unmistakable roar of the crowd. “Electrifying” hits, and the WWE Champion The Rock struts onto the stage, gold glimmering over his shoulder. The fans are deafening, chanting “Rocky! Rocky! Rocky!” before he can even speak.
With a sly grin, The Rock raises his eyebrow and bellows:
> The Rock: “Finally… The Rock has come back to Indianapolis!”
The Rock reminds everyone that he’s the People’s Champion, and unlike the so-called “Real World’s Champion” Seth Rollins, he doesn’t hide behind managers, platforms, or egos.
> The Rock: “Instead of waiting for Seth Rollins to come for The Rock… the Rock is coming for Seth Rollins! Survivor Series: War Games. San Diego. You and me, one-on-one, for the WWE Championship!”
The crowd goes wild. The Rock then raises the stakes:
> The Rock: “And if Seth Rollins wins — The Rock will hand the WWE back to Mr. Murrey himself!”
The fans erupt again as Mr. Murrey’s theme hits. Murrey walks to the ring in a black tailored suit, flanked by security.
He smirks at The Rock and accepts the challenge on behalf of Rollins, but not before revealing a massive announcement.
> Mr. Murrey: “You see, Rock, while you’ve been playing movie star and pretending you still run this place, I’ve been building something bigger than the WWE itself… a brand-new platform called W.I.N. — Wrestling International Network!”
He explains that WIN will house legendary archives from WWF, CWA, LWF, UWA, BAWA, HLW, AXW, and WWO, plus soon enough, the WWE library itself. It will also feature exclusive content — including the return of his own show, Life and Legacy with Mr. Murrey.
Then, with venom in his tone, Murrey takes a shot:
> Murrey: “This isn’t World of Wrestling with its bunny mascots and cartoon chairmen. WIN isn’t run by a rabbit — it’s run by a visionary! Anyone who uses a bunny for anything… is absolutely insane!”
He promises that when Seth Rollins defeats The Rock at Survivor Series: War Games, the WWE Championship will become the crown jewel of wrestling history — under the WIN banner.
The Rock steps forward, staring him down.
> The Rock: “You’ve got your network, your suits, and your little ‘real world champion.’ But at Survivor Series, The Rock’s gonna do what he does best — lay the smackdown on both your candy asses!”
The crowd roars as The Rock drops the mic and holds the title high. Murrey grins coldly as he exits, mouthing: “You’ve just signed WWE’s death warrant.”
Match 1 – WWE Tag Team Championship Match
Moxley & Roman Reigns (c) vs. The APA
In a bruising, physical rematch, the champs, Jon Moxley and Roman Reigns, defended their titles against the hard-hitting Bradshaw and Simmons.
Early on, the APA used their power advantage, isolating Moxley in their corner. Simmons spinebuster and Bradshaw’s fallaway slam nearly scored the win. But Moxley clawed his way back, tagging in Reigns, who hit the ring like a freight train.
Reigns landed a Superman Punch on Bradshaw, followed by a double-team powerbomb from the champions to seal the victory.
After the bell, Reigns and Moxley shared a tense stare — a reminder that as champions, their partnership is built on intensity.
Backstage 🌟
Backstage, World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest is being interviewed by Byron Saxton when the arena shakes — Braun Strowman storms onto the set.
> Strowman: “Halloween Havoc. I want you, Priest. I want the World Title. Let’s see if ‘The Archer of Infamy’ can survive The Monster Among Men!”
Priest smirks and lowers his sunglasses.
> Priest: “Challenge accepted. But at Halloween Havoc, Braun… the only thing getting haunted is you.”
The crowd pops as the two men go nose-to-nose, setting the stage for a colossal clash.
Commercial Break – Return Announcement
Coming back from break, the commentary team confirms that Dominik Mysterio will defend his United States Championship against Dexter Lumis at Halloween Havoc!
Barrett jokes, “This could be the creepiest title match of the year,” as Pat McAfee quips, “If Lumis stares at Dom long enough, Rhea Ripley might have to tag in for him.
Backstage – WIN Teaser 🌟
Mr. Murrey is shown in a high-tech control room labeled WIN Operations, speaking to Vince McMahon via video call.
He says, “We’re already infiltrating WWE’s infrastructure. Survivor Series will mark the official takeover.”
Vince responds only with: “The world is watching.”
Main Event
John Cena vs. Jesse “The Body” Ventura
In a rematch between two former World Champions, the crowd was electric for every move. Ventura used his veteran cunning to target Cena’s ribs, grounding the match with suplexes and submission holds.
Cena rallied with his signature shoulder tackles, the Five Knuckle Shuffle, and finally lifted Ventura for the Attitude Adjustment — but Ventura reversed it into a DDT for a near fall!
In the closing moments, Cena escaped a sleeper hold, countered with a surprise STF, and forced Ventura to tap out in the center of the ring.
After the bell, Cena helped Ventura up and raised his hand — mutual respect between two generations.
Closing Segment – The Final Word
As Cena salutes the crowd, the TitanTron flickers. Seth Rollins’ laughter echoes through the arena.
> Rollins (on screen): “Enjoy your nostalgia, Rock. Because at Survivor Series, I’m not just taking your title… I’m taking this whole era.”
The screen fades to the WIN logo, then cuts to black as the crowd boos furiously.
Show Ends – WWE vs. WIN: The War for Wrestling’s Soul Begins.
