WWE Raw (8/14/23) Results

- Judgment Day (Damian Priest, Dominik Mysterio, and Rhea Ripley) kicked off the show. They're interrupted by JD McDonagh in short order. McDonagh tells them that he has a message from Finn Balor. That message is to not worry about his friendship with Balor but to worry about the real enemies, Cody Rhodes & Sami Zayn. Ripley tells him that they don't take orders from anyone, especially those not in the group. McDonagh insists that he means no disrespect and goes to leave, but Sami Zayn comes out to interrupt all of them. Zayn gets the better of McDonagh and an early attack. He briefly targets Judgment Day but they tell him to handle his business. McDonagh gets the upper hand by slamming Zayn's arm into the ring post. It appears a match between them is next.

* Sami Zayn def. JD McDonagh. Sami Zayn won with a Helluva Kick, despite Finn Balor showing up midway through and trying to help JD win the match. Zayn then escaped an attack from Balor.

Adam Pearce tried to talk to Chelsea Green about deciding what to do with the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. She pitched the idea of holding auditions but was interrupted by Kayden Carter & Katana Chance. Katana started to say that as soon as Chelsea finds a partner, they would like an opportunity at the titles, but they were taken out from behind by Piper Niven. Niven demanded that she would be the next champion along with Chelsea, took one of the title belts, and ushered Chelsea out the door of Adam's office.

Ludwig Kaiser takes over the situation and again flirts with Maxxine, but she slaps him.

* Cody Rhodes def. Finn Balor. The other members of the Judgment Day arrived halfway through the match to try and give Balor an unfair advantage. Dominik Mysterio passes Balor a chair as the referee checks on Rhodes, but the referee notices the chair and stops Balor from using it as a weapon. Then, as Rhea Ripley distracts the referee, Damian Priest attempts to slide his Money in the Bank briefcase to Balor. He overshoots his toss, and it goes to Cody instead, who hits Finn with it before hitting CrossRhodes for the victory.

- After the match, Judgment Day attacks Rhodes. Sami Zayn tries to come down to even the odds but is taken out by JD McDonagh. The babyfaces get beaten down some more as Judgment Day works as a well-oiled machine. Finn Balor hits a running-jumping Coup De Grace off the steel steps to Zayn on the outside. Damian Priest throws Zayn through a table with a Razor's Edge. Then, Balor returns inside the ring to deliver a Coup De Grace to Cody Rhodes.
