WWE RAW RESULTS – MARCH 2, 2026
‘WWE Then. Now. Forever. Together.’ kicks things off as always. We then see a recap of this past Saturday night’s WWE Elimination Chamber premium live event and then the usual show-opening Superstar arrivals behind-the-scenes and outside of the building.
Seth Rollins Sets Up, Attacks Paul Heyman
At ringside, Paul Heyman, Logan Paul and Austin Theory get in the ring. Heyman introduces the trio and says they’re here to talk about Seth Rollins. Heyman says he hates Rollins and stole the credit of co-founding The Vision and The Shield.
He doesn’t deserve it and talks about how Rollins stole the Main Event at WrestleMania from Logan Paul. Heyman says the next time Rollins is in a WWE ring, they’ll stomp his ass out. And that’s not a prediction or spoiler, it’s a personal guarantee from the three members of The Vision.
Theory wants to share his theory and says he and Rollins go way back but Rollins’ story isn’t going forward. Paul gets on the mic and calls Rollins a scumbag and says he eliminated three people in the chamber and then Rollins stole his chance to fight at WrestleMania.
Paul calls out Rollins and demands Rollins come out or else they’ll hold the show hostage. Adam Pearce comes out and tells them to move it along and accuses them of attacking Jey Uso last week. Heyman says they didn’t do that but they can’t be responsible for what they’ll do to Seth Rollins.
Pearce says Rollins isn’t cleared to compete and to let him deal with Rollins. A masked man shows up by the ring and security chases him out. A second one comes out and Paul chases him out of the ring. A third one comes out and Theory chases him out. A fourth one comes out with Heyman in the ring on his own.
Heyman pleads with the fourth masked man and a fifth one shows up behind him and unmasks himself to be Seth Rollins. Rollins smokes Heyman with a chair and curb stomps Heyman in the center of the ring. Rollins poses in the ring while Heyman is laid out in the middle of the ring.
Rollins leaves through the crowd as medical staff run into the ring to tend to Heyman. We head to a break. When we return, we see Heyman is being put into an ambulance. Austin Theory and Logan Paul run by in a panic. They’re yelling at the medical staff to do something and to help Heyman. Paul is told to get the car and he leaves.
A car pulls up and Theory goes to get in and Jimmy Uso comes out of the car and beats up Theory. Uso walks to the ambulance and LA Knight is driving it and says Heyman will get the help he needs and Knight speeds away with Heyman in the back of the ambulance. That ends the wild start to this week’s show.
