Bronson Reed def. Roman Reigns in an Australian Street FightWe see Street Fights way too often in WWE, so the stipulation wasn't overly exciting on paper, but they made the most of it and had a fun brawl. The interference from Bron Breakker and The Usos was expected, but it played into the story with Reigns previously telling Jey Uso that he didn't want him to get involved and then that factoring into the finish here. I'm glad they went with Reed winning in his home country because this was a huge victory for him and should ideally give him a boost.

Brock Lesnar def. John CenaThis was originally announced as the main event by Joe Tessitore on Monday's Raw but was later changed to the opener. The correct call was made as this would not have been a very strong main event. Sure, it had a big fight feel right before the bell rang, but it turned out to be a flurry of finishes and very little else. Cena had a few hope spots, but otherwise, this was total domination from Lesnar a la SummerSlam 2014. There really is no reason for them to revisit this (especially for Cena's last match), so hopefully they move on. And, if it wasn't already obvious, it looks like Lesnar's here to stay.
Matt Hardy def. Mark Henry, Finlay, Chavo Guerrero and The Miz in a Scramble Match to Win the ECW ChampionshipThis Scramble match was the first of its kind. It took some time for the crowd to get into the concept as it started out slow, but once they picked up the pace, they came alive for a lot of the nearfalls. This turned into an enjoyable opener. Hardy winning the right call after having failed in his previous attempts at capturing the championship and Henry (the defending champ) didn't have to get pinned in the process.
Roman Reigns def. Bronson ReedMuch like the rest of the show, this match definitely benefited from the crowd being as hot as they were. It was still a good match, and I was expecting a Reigns win, but I wish Reed had just gone over if the idea was to write Reigns off television (again) for the month of September while he films Street Fighter. To their credit, the attack was well done and The Vision got great heat for it.
Women's World Champion Naomi def. Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY in a Triple Threat MatchIt was going to be difficult for these three women to top the Triple Threat that SKY and Ripley had with Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 41, but they had a great match, nonetheless. It was really well paced, Ripley and SKY's chemistry was excellent as always, and Naomi shined as well. It would've been ridiculous for Naomi to lose the title so soon after winning it, so her retaining was the correct outcome.
