AJ Styles and Dragon Lee accomplished the primary defense of their WWE World Tag Team Championship reign over the previous champions, Finn Balor and JD McDonagh, during “WWE Raw.”
The challengers were accompanied to the ring by Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio as they sought to reclaim their titles and start a 3rd reign as World Tag Team Champions. Mysterio got involved on the apron, distracting the referee as Styles held McDonagh down for a roll-up.
McDonagh kicked out of the quilt, reversing it right into a hold for Balor to search for a Coup de Grace, but Styles rolled out of the way in which and Balor connected with McDonagh as a substitute; Styles cleared the ring of Balor and hit the Phenomenal Forearm to McDonagh, but Balor returned to interrupt up the quilt.
Mysterio sought to get entangled again, ordered by Balor to hit Styles with the belt, but he was caught by the referee and neutralized when Sheamus emerged to supply interference for the champions. Balor then struck Styles with a shillelagh within the ring and McDonagh went for the quilt, but Lee broke the autumn before the count of three. Styles then got the higher of McDonagh when the ring had been cleared, hitting him with Styles Clash to get the pinfall and the title retention.
