The last Raw episode before WrestleMania usually features a lot of talking for one reason: avoiding an injury before the big show.

So while wrestling fans enjoyed a few matches, they also heard a lot of hype for the two WrestleMania 41 shows this weekend in Las Vegas.

Gunther told the fans that he has been a champion for 80 percent of his time in WWE.

He will defend the World title against Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso, who delivered a brief message later in the show.

Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky talked about their Triple Threat match for Sky’s World women’s title. Sky spoke in her native Japanese.

While Belair vs. Ripley would be a great match, Sky is a deserving champion and said she should not be forgotten.

The final talking segment focused on Saturday’s main event: CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins.

Reigns said Paul Heyman “betrayed” him by agreeing to appear in Punk’s corner.

Heyman said he was only returning the favor from Punk helping the Original Bloodline in the WarGames match at Survivor Series.

Of course, a brawl ensued. Rollins stood tall over Punk and Reigns to end the show.

LET’S GO TO THE RING!

Bayley defeated Liv Morgan in the opening match. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria will challenge Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez for the WWE women’s tag team title at Mania.
