The episode of Monday Night RAW following SummerSlam (08/04) delivered plenty of excitement, ending with chaos inside and outside the ring. One of the most talked-about moments involved Roman Reigns at the center of a heated confrontation with a WWE legend. The star in question is none other than CM Punk.

The Monday Night show opened with new World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins celebrating his SummerSlam victory. He boasted to the crowd, but his celebration was quickly interrupted when LA Knight challenged him to a match. Adam Pearce agreed, and later in the main event, The Visionary faced off against The Megastar.

The match ended in chaos when Rollins tried to stomp Knight’s face on the concrete, only to be stopped by a surprise attack from CM Punk. Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker, who were banned from the ringside during the main event match, rushed in to save their leader. Just as it seemed the odds were stacked against the babyfaces, Roman Reigns’ music hit. The OTC charged to the ring and bulldozed through Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker, giving Rollins a chance to retreat.

However, as the new champ tried to escape, he sneaked back and attacked Roman Reigns from behind, flattening him out with a brutal stomp. This led to a wild scene, with all members of the villainous faction surrounding and beating down The Tribal Chief.
