The latest edition of WWE Monday Night Raw for February 25, 2019 took place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, GA.

Here is a recap of the most noteworthy highlights from this episode for those who may have missed it:

— Roman Reigns starts the show by announcing he's in remission and thanking everyone for their support.

— Ricochet and Aleister Black defeated The Revival by pinfall

— Elias attempts to play a song, but is interrupted by Lacey Evans, who does her walk down the ramp and back up. Dean Ambrose then interrupts to quest an AC/DC song, leading to him hitting Elias with Dirty Deeds.

— Ronda Rousey and Natalya vs. The Riott Squad ends when Becky Lynch comes out and goes on the attack before she's hauled off by security. Following the match, Rousey tells Stephanie McMahon that she demands Becky be reinstated and put in the title match at WrestleMania. When Stephanie says no and refuses to do it, Rousey points out that the championship doesn't mean anything if she can't face the best. Then, it's just a gaudy belt that isn't her style. She drops the Raw Women's Championship in the ring and leaves, saying Vince McMahon needs to make the right decision.

— Kurt Angle defeated Jinder Mahal by submission

— Finn Balor is Alexa Bliss's guest on A Moment of Bliss. She compliments his abs and Lio Rush comes out to pick a fight.

— Finn Balor retained the Intercontinental Championship over Lio Rush by pinfall

— Backstage, The Ascension make fun of Otis of Heavy Machinery. Tucker tells Otis what they said, so Dozer takes them out. That's what they get for messing with Heavy Machinery.

— Bobby Lashley attacks Braun Strowman while The Monster Among Men is making his entrance. Their match doesn't officially start, but Strowman ends up on top of the battle with Lashley and Rush.

— Drew McIntyre defeated Dean Ambrose by pinfall. After the match, Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and Elias come out to beat down Ambrose some more until Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns make the save, but there's no true Shield reunion, as they leave Ambrose in the ring, although they all look at each other in acknowledgement to tease it.

— Bayley defeated Nia Jax by pinfall

— Ric Flair's birthday celebration doesn't get off to a start because Batista has attacked Flair backstage to get Triple H's attention, setting up a match between the two for WrestleMania.
