Rollins says today is a good day because it’s draft day and we are live in Colorado. Wyatt doesn’t care about the draft because he goes where Rollins goes and it’s not good for anyone. Rollins says he thought he put an end to it at Hell in a Cell but he doesn’t know what it will take to end The Fiend. He nearly pulled him to hell on Friday but something clicked for him. He thought maybe he is going about it all wrong.
Rollins says he is trying to move forward with his life while the Fiend is picking his spot. But that ends tonight because tonight he is going Fiend hunting. And before the evening is over, he will find Wyatt and he will end this and he will burn it down.

Strowman says he knows a lot more about him than he thinks he knows. He’s aware he’s undefeated but he also knows Fury has one of the biggest ego’s he’sd ever seen. He knows what he was on Smackdown because he was trying to steal some of WWE’s spotlight, some of his spotlight. Strowman says at Saudi Arabia, he will be in his world. He will give him his first ever loss. And the funny thing about it is that there’s nothing Fury can do about it because on October 31, he will get these hands. Strowman signs the contract.
Tyson Fury grabs the pen and signs the contract. He grabs a microphone and tells Braun that he’s a fan of his. And the reason why he was on Smackdown is because he was there to see him. Because his kids have been talking about Strowman and how many tables he has flipped. He says he is in his element in any ring and at Crown Jewel, the heavyweight champion will knock him out.
Both men stand up as Lawler grabs the contract and leaves the ring. Strowman breaks the table in half by smashing it. Fury breaks the pen with his hands and leaves the ring.
Didn't Floyd Mayweather fight Big Show at Wrestlemania years ago? And as I type that, they say that Lawler meant undefeated heavyweight champion of the world. Fast correction by the #Raw team.

That was the worst main event I've seen on #Raw in a long time. It was clear that it was a filler match until the Wyatt and Rollins stuff. The fans were not happy and it the women were just standing there doing nothing. Poor booking.
— Wrestleview.com (@wrestleview) October 15, 2019
Seth Rollins burns down the FireFly Fun House and just a bad way to end a #Raw which wasn't bad at all. Not happy about it.
— Wrestleview.com (@wrestleview) October 15, 2019
A decent #Raw with some good matches. The third hour wasn't bad up until the main event and that included the Bray Wyatt and Seth Rollins stuff.
