WWE Raw: Results, Highlights & Grades as CM Punk and Becky Lynch Faceoff (Sept. 1, 2025)

Heading into the event, the only announced match is Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio defending his title against company legend AJ Styles. However, there is sure to be fallout from WWE Clash in Paris, including Becky Lynch’s first official appearance with The Vision.

Below you can find all the WWE Raw results from today’s card in Paris, as well as all the top highlights and match grades.

Jey Uso opens WWE Raw, gets confronted by LA Knight

Jey Uso opened the show frustrated and called out The Vision after they obliterated his cousin, Roman Reigns, last night. However, instead, LA Knight appeared to throw some blame his way over both losing at WWE Clash in Paris. However, the pair were interrupted by Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. After some fun verbal sparring, a tag match between the four was set up for later.

• Grade: B-

Kabuki Warriors vs. Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez

There were several parts of the tag match between former champions, the Kabuki Warrior and Roxanne Perez, and Raquel Rodriguez. However, some miscues during the bout, especially a lot of confusion at the end, take it from being a B to a C-worthy match.

• Winner: Kabuki Warriors
• Grade: C+

Finn Balor vs. Dragon Lee

Finn Balor vs. Dragon Lee is the match of the night and will be hard to top. Both were clean and crisp, and it was one of Lee’s best all-around matches in some time. It is impressive how good Balor is at 44 and with so many years of wear and tear on his body.

• Winner: Balor
• Grade: A-

Penta & The War Raiders vs. New Day & Grayson Waller

Five of the six men in this match are all very experienced veterans, and Waller is far better in the ring than he gets credit for. So, unsurprisingly, the clash between Penta and the War Raiders vs. The New Day and Waller was a bunch of fun and rock solid, threw and threw. Especially when Penta and his teammates did a three-man strut early in the match.

• Winner: Penta & War Raiders
• Grade: B+

AJ Styles vs. Dominik Mysterio (c) – Intercontinental Championship Match

In all honesty, Styles vs. Mysterio should have been the night’s main event. That is, if Styles won. Unfortunately, to the chagrin of most WWE fans and everyone inside the Paris La Défense Arena, Mysterio got the W with the help — of all people — El Grande Americano. The match was good, and the crowd was legendary. But it gets a B- for not delivering the finish he should have.

• Winner: Mysterio
• Grade: B-

CM Punk and Becky Lynch clash on the mic

Before the night’s main event, CM Punk arrived to confront Seth Rollins. Instead, Becky Lynch arrived to air some grievances with the WWE legend. She unloaded, and Punk followed with a strong retort in what was the highlight of the night. After Rollins showed up briefly, then scurried offer, Lynch punched then slapped her husband’s hated rival a shocking number of times. Knowing he would not respond. It was an emotional moment with great work from all involved.

• Grade: A

Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed vs. Jey Uso & LA Knight

These four have been mingling and interacting in various ways, off and on, for the last couple of years. So they are all familiar with each other and delivered a solid bout. It wasn’t a barn burner, but it was by no means boring. The two Vision members got the W. However, the key story from the match was Jimmy Uso arriving to save his brother Jey from taking more of a beating from Reed and Breakker.

• Winner: Breakker and Reed
• Grade: C+
