WWE RAW highlights: An over-the-top wedding

Monday Night WWE RAW had been promoting Lana-Bobby Lashley wedding for some time. As the wedding ceremony began, the crowd started chanting ‘Rusev Day’ which annoyed Lana. However, everything went as planned until the couple exchanged rings. And then came the customary question inviting anyone who objected to the union to speak up. All hell broke loose as Lana’s first husband showed up. He warned Bobby Lashley that Lana would leave him for something better. Lashley gave his reply in the form of a chokeslam. When the priest once again asked if there were any objection, it was Lashley’s first wife's turn to interrupt. However, Lana didn’t allow her to say much.

The next interruption was by Liv Morgan who claimed that she had a relationship with Lana. This caused the two women to wrestle in the ring before security guards evicted Liv Morgan. But that was not the end of it. As the officiant pronounced Lana and Bobby Lashley man and wife, Rusev popped out of the giant cake placed in the ring. As the show closed out, Liv Morgan returned to smear cake on Lana’s face.

But help was on hand as Samoa Joe came to Kevin Owens' rescue. He took out the AOP and had Seth Rollins in the Coquina Clutch. Eventually, security had to intervene and break up the fight.
