The New Look Bloodline Is Official and John Arpino Ends Up on Monday Night Raw | Raw Graded
Monday, 22 June, 2026
Danny and John Arpino recap a Raw that opened with one of the better bloodline segments in recent memory, closed with Oba Femi destroying the entire Judgment Day bracket theory they had been building for weeks, and had a brief detour where John Arpino's face ended up on Monday Night Raw in Baltimore because of Dan Housen and the New York Knicks winning the NBA championship.This week on The Go-Home Show: Roman opens the show with the new look bloodline lined up in the ring and gives everyone their flowers one by one including a genuinely touching moment for Jimmy that Danny points out has been overlooked for years before getting to Jacob who steals the mic to say he only acknowledges one person and that person is the OTC, Roman then delivers a promo about how the bloodline has always been here going back to the Wild Samoans and Rikishi and the Usos and will still be here when Jacob's kids and Roman's kids eventually become tag team champions, a fan at ringside gets too comfortable with Jacob's Ulafala on the way out and gets ripped out of the crowd and tossed in the ring before Roman comes to the apron and says no Jacob and then immediately says actually yeah Jacob go ahead in a moment that had both of them losing it, Eric Andre takes two splashes and earns every dollar he made tonight, Chad Gable beats Rusev in a fun big versus small match with a 2.9 kickout that had the crowd erupting and Danny makes the case that he needs a new theme and a new Titan Tron immediately, Io Sky beats Raquel Rodriguez in a clean Queen of the Ring semifinal that had a really good top rope finish, Braun Breaker shows up mid-match during Javon Evans versus Austin Theory to destroy Javon in midair on the OG cutter attempt and end the match by disqualification, the guys discover their entire King of the Ring bracket prediction is wrong after Oba squashes Dom and JD in about four minutes without Brock Lesnar showing up, Danny and John spend the closing segment figuring out that Oba is probably winning King of the Ring for a SummerSlam title shot with Jay Uso potentially being pointed toward the WWE title on SmackDown, and John gets to tell the story of his face ending up in the Dan Housen Knicks championship package on Raw because he cursed just two seconds before the cleanest part of the clip.Final grades: C plus and B minus.The Go-Home Show drops every week breaking down WWE Raw and SmackDown with honest takes, real grades, and zero filter.
