WWE Raw Results
February 20, 2023
Report by Lovell Porter for Wrestlezone.com
In-Ring Segment: Sami Zayn
The crowd showers Zayn with chant and affirmation. Zayn can’t help but chuckle when the “Ole” chant breaks out. Zayn says he’s feeling a lot of feelings. After the past few days, the one feeling that comes to the front is gratitude. The WWE Universe has no idea how much that means to him. The crowd breaks out into a “you deserve it” chant. After coming so close, he feels a lot of guilt. He feels like he let people down. He may not have finished his story at Elimination Chamber, but this story is never-ending.
Before he can move forward, he has to speak to one man. Kevin Owens. Owens’ music hits, and he joins Zayn in the ring. There is so much Zayn wants to say to Owens, but now that he’s here, he doesn’t know what to say. Zayn says thanks, and you he’s sorry. He knows they are past the point of words. Zayn doesn’t know if there is anything way they can come back from this. He knows that there is one thing Owens wants right now, and that’s to take down the Bloodline. Zayn’s new mission is the same.
Hope this goes better than last time, @itsBayleyWWE!

Check out last week’s coverage: WWE Raw Results (2/13/23)
He won’t rest until he sees Roman Reigns come crashing down. Neither of them could do it alone. Zayn knows they can do it together. Owens says he didn’t do what he did at Elimination Chamber for Zayn. He did it for his family. Owens’ family had to watch him get destroyed at the Royal Rumble while Zayn watched. He didn’t want Zayn’s family to go through that. He meant what he said. He’s done with Zayn. If Zayn needs help bringing down the Bloodline, he should ask his buddy Jey (Uso). Zayn looks dejected in the ring as Owens storms off.
As Zayn walks up the ramp, Baron “Don’t Call Me Bum Ass” Corbin attacks him from behind.
In-Ring Segment: Baron Corbin
Corbin rants about Zayn cutting him off last week to vent about his insecurities. Zayn didn’t deserve to be in the ring with Reigns. Adam Pearce and a few referees are holding Zayn back. Corbin yells that Zayn’s story is over he’s a complete and utter failure. Pearce hears that line and steps out of Zayn’s way. Zayn hits the ring and sends Corbin flying over the top rope. Pearce sends a referee to the ring and rings the bell.

Backstage, Austin Theory says he’s banged up, but he’s here. He put down Seth Rollins and four others at the Elimination Chamber. No one seems to care. All the headlines are talking about John Cena returning in a few weeks. Who cares. It should be all about him. He’s going to defeat Edge in his own crappy country. He’s never going to lose the United States Championship. How’s that for a headline?
