A wild ending to WWE Raw.
WWE Raw closed with what was supposed to be a fight between Triple H and Randy Orton. The two men battled for a brief period, but as Triple H went for his sledgehammer, the lights went down, indicating 'The Fiend' was near.
Triple H's sledgehammer would be ablaze before he randomly disappeared.
Alexa Bliss, who was not set on fire by Orton two weeks ago, showed up to confront Orton. She chose pain and blasted a fireball into the face of Orton to close the show.

The show began with Triple H discussing the events of WWE Raw Legends Night, leading to Orton interrupting. Orton challenged Triple H to a fight, but Triple H initially resisted. After having his manhood questioned, HHH decked Orton and accepted the challenge for later in the night.
This marked Triple H's first match, though it may not have been an official match, since June 29, 2019 when he teamed with Shinsuke Nakamura at a live event in Tokyo, Japan. Triple H's last televised match came at WWE Super ShowDown 2019 when he lost to Orton. 2020 marked the first year Triple H had not competed since he debuted in 1994.
