OTM didn’t just tear apart the closing moments of the August 24, 2026 episode of WWE RAW — their first night on the main roster apparently went over very well behind the scenes too.
According to False Finish, a source indicated that the internal reaction to Bronco Nima and Lucien Price’s RAW debut alongside Royce Keys was “very positive.” That’s a strong early sign for a group WWE immediately threw into the deep end instead of giving them a quiet introduction.
WWE certainly gave OTM plenty to work with. Their arrival came during the main event between The Usos and LA Knight and Solo Sikoa, where Keys suddenly entered the picture before Nima and Price stormed the ring and started wrecking everybody around them.
Keys sent Jey Uso and Solo crashing through a table, Nima stomped away at Knight and Price planted Jimmy Uso before the new trio continued the beatdown. By the time RAW went off the air, Keys, Nima and Price were standing together over the damage they had caused.
The positive internal response is especially notable because OTM’s move to RAW appears to have come together relatively recently. WWE had been teasing tension between Nima and Price not long ago, while Bronco was also briefly involved with Los Perros del Mal in AAA. That direction was dropped, OTM stayed together, and the team suddenly found itself paired with Keys on the main roster.
The exact timing of that creative shift isn’t confirmed, but the important part now is what happened after WWE pulled the trigger. OTM was trusted with the final angle of RAW, surrounded by major names, and apparently left people inside the company happy with how it came across.
That’s about as good of a first night as Nima and Price could have asked for. WWE made them look dangerous, gave them a major spot right out of the gate and, based on the internal reaction, the group delivered when it mattered.
