WWE RAW Results (9/22/25): Live Match Updates and Highlights

The show opens up with a video package recapping this past Saturday night’s WWE WrestlePalooza PLE. The video package also included a split-screen shot of Undertaker informing Stephanie McMahon of her WWE Hall of Fame induction, while Paul Levesque was shown watching it play out backstage. It also included a shot from the post-show of Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins going face-to-face while holding up their respective title belts.

Joe Tessitore then welcomes us to the show and we see The Vision walking in the parking lot, new WWE Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer entering the arena with her father, The New Day and Grayson Waller outside of the arena with kendo sticks, Bayley laughing and entering the arena and LA Knight entering the arena with Rusev yelling at Dominik Mysterio behind him but Knight doesn’t care and he just walks past them.

Cody Rhodes’ music then hits and he makes his way down to the ring. Cody enters the ring and the fans chant “Cody”. Cody then asks the fans what they want to talk about. Cody then shows the Crown Jewel ring and says they can talk about that. Cody then says as much as he loves the ring, there are nine other digits so he would love to win some more. Cody then says it’s the Undisputed Champion against the World Heavyweight and Seth Rollins’ music hits and he makes his way out with The Vision.

Seth then tells the rest of The Vision to back away as he enters the ring. Seth and Cody are face to face in the ring. The fans then chant “Cody” as Seth tells him from the moment they both walked out of SummerSlam as Champions he had Crown Jewel circled on the calendar. Seth then says they both had some hoops to jump through, but here they are, Champion vs. Champion, Seth Rollins vs. Cody Rhodes, two of the very best in the world, in their prime, one on one and may the best man win. Seth then says it should be that simple, but it’s not because it is them and it is deeper than that and bigger than that.

Seth then says he is pretty good at reading people. Seth then says he knows what everyone in the arena thinks about him. Seth then says he knows what the locker room thinks about him, what the internet thinks about him and what those watching on Netflix think about him, but he doesn’t give a damn. Seth then says the fans don’t know what is good for them and they don’t have the right to make decisions. A loud “CM Punk” chant then starts from the fans. Seth then says fortunately it is not about Punk because he does not have a championship. Seth then says he knows what that moron thinks of him. Seth then says what he wants to know and what he needs to know is what Cody thinks of him.

Cody then circles around to face Bron, Bronson and Paul. Cody then says it’s complicated. Cody then says it shouldn’t be complicated. Cody then says you have made some questionable choices. Cody then says one of them is standing right there and hello to Mr. Heyman. Cody then says Seth changed his life. Cody then says he came back at WrestleMania and Seth had the courage to face an opponent he didn’t know. Cody then says after Hell in a Cell Seth had him at his lowest after dealing with his injury. Cody then says at WrestleMania Seth was his shield to help him get this title into his family. Cody then says it shouldn’t be complicated. Cody then says he had Seth’s wife on his podcast.

Seth then says he needs to know if this was a real gift or was this a token gesture. Seth then says Cody is fantastic at saying the right things about him. Seth then says glowing praise is heaped on him when it suits Cody. Seth then says in his next breath he undermines everything he stands for. Seth then says Cody stands in this ring and he goes on interviews and says with a straight face that he is the right person to lead this industry into the future. Seth then says he says he is QB1 and that he is the best for the job. Seth then says what does that say about him. Seth then tells Cody that either Cody does not think he is good enough or Cody does not think he is as good as him.

Seth then says that The Vision are not goons, they are not just a group of people, they are an idea of what the future of the industry looks like and it runs through him. Seth then says he is the tip of that spear, not Cody. Seth then says Cody can be the quarterback, but he will be his quarterback. Seth then tells Cody if he does not agree with that, it doesn’t matter because in three weeks at Crown Jewel, the truth will come out, by any means necessary. Seth then says Cody will find out that he is the creator and he is the prime mover. Seth then says this is not a two man show and that he is the alpha.

Cody then says that Seth is the alpha and he has a lot of questions. Cody then says he has two questions for Seth. Cody then says in the three matches they have had, they have all been one on one. Cody then asks Seth if at Crown Jewel, that will be the case. Cody then says in the three matches that they have had, how many of them has Seth won. Cody then slams the microphone on Seth’s chest and leaves the ring. The fans then chant “Cody” as he stares at Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. Seth then waves at them to move aside. Cody then walks away as his music hits.

We then head to the back with Jimmy and Jey Uso. Jimmy tells Jey what happened at WrestlePalooza was trash. He then says he knows they can beat them. He then says he went to go talk to Adam Pearce to get a rematch, but Pearce told him that Jey made his own match and it will be him against LA Knight. Jimmy then tells Jey that Jey is busted up and hurt. Jey then tells him that he thinks they would have won at WrestlePalooza if LA Knight was not the referee and he thinks The Vision would have taken care of LA Knight last week had Jimmy not tagged with him last week. Jimmy then asks Jey if he is blaming him and Jey tells him no. He then says he is telling Jimmy that they have a lot to handle and they will after he bodies LA Knight. Jey then walks away.
