The October 12, 2020 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE's RAW brand, which took place on October 12, 2020 at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. This was the second and final night of the WWE Draft 2020.
Episode summary[]
Lars Sullivan crashed “Miz TV”[]
What started as The Miz & John Morrison looking for thanks for having Mandy Rose sent to SmackDown turned into The Golden Goddess & Dana Brooke berating the two, only for Natalya & Lana to interrupt and set off a brawl with Rose & Brooke.
Miz & Morrison’s night took a turn for the worse after they regained control of “Miz TV.” As things calmed down, Lars Sullivan made his presence felt. The Freak roared, causing The A-Lister to ditch Morrison, leaving The Guru of Greatness to fall prey to Sullivan’s devastating Freak Accident.
Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke vs Natalya & Lana[]
The new duo of Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke continued to establish themselves on Monday nights with a big win over Lana and the winningest women’s Superstar in WWE history, Natalya. Dana Brooke picked up the three-count with a breathtaking senton off The Golden Goddess’ shoulders.
Apparently, that loss pushed Natalya over the edge. After the bell, she told The Ravishing Russian that their partnership was no longer working out and bailed on Lana.
Andrade vs Angel Garza[]
Former teammates clashed on Raw, as Angel Garza and Andrade locked horns. Their former manager, Zelina Vega, watched from the commentary desk. Andrade looked aggressive from the get-go as he pounced on his former partner. However, Garza bounced back and put Andrade down for the three-count with the Wing Clipper.
After the bell, Vega entered the ring to check on Andrade, but the lights in the WWE ThunderDome cut out. When they came back on, a red haze hung over the arena as “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt and Alexa Bliss appeared in the ring. The two twisted allies struck, hitting twin Sister Abigails on Andrade & Vega to signal their arrival on Monday Night Raw.
Dual-Brand Battle Royal[]
The Battle Royal kicked off with the field ganging up on WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler. The champions fared alright at first, with Jax saving The Queen of Spades, but Baszler did not return the favor, helping the other women dump The Irresistible Force over the top rope to eliminate her. That sent Jax into a rage that culminated with her driving Lana through the commentary table for the fourth straight week.
The battle looked to be down to Natalya and Lacey Evans after the two eliminated The Riott Squad. Natalya and The Sassy Southern Belle were hanging on by their fingers as they battled along the ring apron, until Natalya slammed her into the ringpost and dropped Evans to the arena floor. Natalya thought she had won the match and title opportunity, but everyone had forgotten about Lana. After being dumped earlier in the night by Natalya, The Ravishing Russian snuck up behind her former friend and knocked her off the apron to win the Battle Royal and earn the right to challenge for Asuka’s Raw Women’s Championship.
