Great Balls of Fire was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event and WWE Network event produced by WWE for the Raw brand. It took place on July 9, 2017 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.

It was the first event under the Great Balls of Fire chronology. It was named after the song of the same name, which used the song as its official theme song as part of a settlement with Jerry Lee Lewis over copyright infringement. The name received mass criticism on social media.

Nine matches were contested at the event, including one on the pre-show. In the main event, Brock Lesnar defeated Samoa Joe to retain the Universal Championship. On the undercard, Braun Strowman defeated Roman Reigns in an ambulance match, Bray Wyatt defeated Seth Rollins, and Cesaro and Sheamus retained the Raw Tag Team Championship against The Hardy Boyz in a 30-minute Iron Man match.
