The WWE Universe witnessed one of the most electric, unexpected nights in recent memory during the exclusive WWE Dark Raw event on May 31, 2025. Fans packed into the eerie glow of the ShadowDome Arena expecting a typical night of untelevised action — what they got instead was a moment that will be etched into the annals of wrestling history.
Opening Matches: The Calm Before the Storm
The night kicked off with some classic Dark Raw energy. Finn Bálor defeated Dominik Mysterio in a high-flying, fast-paced opener. The Judgment Day’s interference attempt was thwarted by none other than Rey Mysterio, who arrived to a thunderous ovation.
Liv Morgan retained her Women’s World Championship against Zoey Stark in a brutal no-DQ match that saw kendo sticks, trash cans, and a surprise table spot. The crowd chanted “This is awesome!” as Liv finished the bout with an Oblivion off the ropes through a chair.
Gunther also made an appearance, defeating Shinsuke Nakamura in a stiff, physical match that had the audience wincing with every chop. It was a masterclass in strong style.
Main Event Chaos: Seth Rollins vs. Solo Sikoa (w/ Paul Heyman)
The main event was billed as Seth Rollins vs. Solo Sikoa, with Paul Heyman at ringside. Rollins came out to his usual fanfare, soaking in the “burn it down” chants. Solo entered the ring with menace, flanked by the ever-scheming Paul Heyman.
For over 15 minutes, the two gladiators battled it out. Rollins delivered a superkick-flurry followed by a Falcon Arrow, but Solo kept kicking out. After a ref bump, Heyman attempted to slide a chair to Solo—but Rollins intercepted and delivered a Curb Stomp to Solo on the weapon.
Just as Rollins covered Solo for what should’ve been the three-count, the lights flickered.
OMG – Roman Reigns Returns!
A haunting silence overtook the arena. The tron lit up with the words “He’s Still The Head of the Table.”
Suddenly, Roman Reigns’ music hit — but not the usual theme. This one was slower, darker. Out walked a bearded, battle-hardened Reigns, clad in black with red accents, eyes blazing with fury.
The crowd exploded into disbelief.
He stepped into the ring slowly, standing behind Rollins, who had no idea what was coming. Then—
SPEAR.
Reigns flattened Seth with a monstrous spear. The crowd gasped. Paul Heyman dropped to his knees in shock, seemingly overjoyed, crawling toward Roman with tears in his eyes.
But Reigns didn’t hug him. He glared down at the man who once called him “My Tribal Chief.”
Then he picked up Paul Heyman… and SPEARED HIM TOO.
Roman’s Message: “There Is No Bloodline Without Me”
With both Rollins and Heyman lying broken in the ring, Roman Reigns picked up a mic. He said just seven words:
> “There is no Bloodline without me.”
Then he dropped the mic, exited through the crowd, and vanished into the shadows.
The show ended with chaos — Solo Sikoa crawling to Heyman’s side, Seth Rollins coughing on the mat, and Roman Reigns’ new theme echoing through the arena.
Aftermath and Speculation
Backstage sources say this wasn’t just a one-night shocker. Reigns is back—and not just as the Tribal Chief, but something more dangerous, more vengeful. Is this the end of The Bloodline as we know it? Or is it just the beginning of a darker empire?
Whatever happens next, one thing is certain:
WWE Dark Raw – May 31, 2025, will never be forgotten.
