MONDAY NIGHT RAW - AUGUST 29, 2016

In Memory Of: Harry Fujiwara - "Mr. Fuji"

Last Week: Universal Championship Contender Matches set up

Welcome to Monday Night Raw live from the Toyota Centre in Houston, Texas. Corey Graves is in the ring with the four competitors in tonight's Fatal Four Way to determine the new WWE Universal Champion.

Seth Rollins cuts Graves off and says the real reason they are all sitting in the ring is because of him. If it weren't for what he did to Finn Balor then Balor would not have had to relinquish the Universal Championship and tonight he is feeling benevolent and wants to donate his speaking time to one of the three competitors in the ring and selects Kevin Owens

Owens says it's such an honour to be in the same match as Reigns, Cass and Rollins and doesn't know what will happen but it's going to be exciting. Owens says he's going to win because with Sami Zayn out of the picture he can focus on what matters and that's the WWE Universal Champion. He's a prizefighter and fights best when the stakes are high and tonight they are higher than they've ever been.

Cass says he's still new here and no one is expecting him to win and he may be the underdog but he's the biggest dog and no matter what Rollins said, size DOES matter

Rollins is glad this is under elimination rules because he's going to shove Cass' words down his 7 foot throat and send Owens packing and running back to Jericho and then it comes down to him and Reigns and Rollins beats Reigns every time.

Reigns and Cass take out Owens and Rollins and then stand face to face. Reigns and Cass then get jumped and Reigns clears the ring standing tall next to the WWE Universal Championship
