WWE Raw TV News & Notes 7/27

- John Cena retained the U.S. Title against WWE World Hvt. champion Seth Rollins in the TV main event. Cena's nose appeared to be broken near the end of the match. Cena wrestled the remainder of the match with blood dripping out of his nose, then won the match with an STF on Rollins.

- WWE advertised Brock Lesnar for next week's Raw in advance. Lesnar will continue building to his Summerslam match against The Undertaker.

- Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens was presented as a "first-time-ever" match-up in the semi-main event slot. Sheamus interfered at ringside, cutting off the match. Cesaro then got involved to continue his feud with Owens.

- The Divas division was featured in two separate matches, like last week. NXT Women's champion Sasha Banks beat Paige and the team of Charlotte & Becky Lynch beat Divas champion Nikki Bella & Alicia Fox.

- Bray Wyatt was featured in a lengthy talking segment reintroducing Luke Harper in the Wyatt Family. Reigns called out Roman Reigns, who did not appear during the segment or live during Raw.

Reigns's runningmate, Dean Ambrose, lost via count-out to Big Show. But, Ambrose stood tall at the end of the segment after avoiding a charging Big Show on the outside.

- Neither Dolph ZIggler nor IC champion Ryback returned to TV. Both men were advertised on WWE's Raw roster page.

- Advertised for Smackdown is Becky Lynch vs. Divas champion Nikki Bella in a non-title match.
