7/15 WWE RAW Results – We start off with a video package for Liv Morgan and her revenge tour against Rhea Ripley.
We see Rhea Ripley walking out of an elevator and down the hallway as she makes her way to the ring inside the Wright State University Nutter Center in Dayton, OH.
Rhea tells everyone that she is home. Rhea says it has been exactly three months since she has been in this ring and it is because of one person . . . Liv Morgan. Rhea says she sees her walking around with something that is hers, and it isn’t Dominik Mysterio because she will take care off him later. She is holding something that Rhea says she never lost, the Women’s Championship. You didn’t take her out, you pissed her off. Rhea tells Liv to come out here so Rhea can rip her apart.

She asks Rhea how her shoulder is. Liv says her shoulder is doing great. Liv tells Rhea she thinks by now that she meant it when she said she wanted to take everything, including Dominik. She says she didn’t see what Rhea saw in Dominik and she just wanted to hurt Rhea. Then she got to spend time with him, look into his eyes, and kiss him. It became real, more real than what Rhea and Dom had. She says Mami might finally be home, Liv is finally on top.
Dom says it is not what it looks like.
Rhea tells Liv the thing is that she knew Liv would be too scared to face her. When you get in her ring, your revenge tour ends. Rhea says she has waited three months so her patience can wait a little longer. Rhea says she is going to challenge Liv for the ttile at SummerSlam.
Liv says she knew it would always end with them for the Women’s Championsihp. She will not run, but she says that Rhea should know that she isn’t the same Liv Morgan you knew. Just like she helped Dom finally beat his deadbeat dad, what you couldn’t do, she will beat Rhea. She accepts the challenge and says she hopes Dom will be there too.
Dom still stands in the ring as if he doesn’t know what is likely next.
Rhea says she knows Liv is still listening and she says SummerSlam, she not only ends your revenge tour, she not only ends your title reign, she ends her career.

Gunther says he was provided everything by his parents. While you were fighting for your life on the street, WWE was begging for him to sign with WWE. It was to avoid WWE giving people like you the opportunity to be called champion. Who else could take the challenge to restore the honor and prestige of this great sport and the World Championship? Gunther says there is one thing he doesn’t understand. He does not know why they love you to death. They are just like you. Whatever you achieve in life, you will always be street trash.
Priest says for somebody who seems to have so much clarity, it is crazy for you to not be able to see what is coming at you. You cannot see why you lost the title at Wrestlemania. You don’t have heart. You don’t know how to fight for everything you are. He says you will have to fight from the bottom after SummerSlam because you will have nothing. Maybe they find out after SummerSlam if you are something more than a boring, conceited, privileged scumbag.
