Liv Morgan & Dominik Mysterio SegmentÂ
Liv Morgan:Â Welcome to the Liv Morgan Revenge Tour. They say that revenge is never as sweet as you think it’s going to be when you finally get it, but not for me. First, I did what no other woman in this division could do, and that is take out Rhea Ripley. But then I became your new Women’s World Champion. But that’s not all, because then I put Becky Lynch into early retirement. Do you want to know what the cherry on top of it all is? Kissing, Dominik Mysterio. You guys know what I’m talking about. Last week, you all saw the video, over 40 million views in less than 24 hours.
Dominik Mysterio: Liv, I don’t know what kind of game you’re trying to play. Let me say my peace. I don’t know what kind of game you’re trying to play, but Mami isn’t playing the same game. And when she comes back, she’s going to kill you.
Liv Morgan: Well, maybe, because she’s probably going to kill you, too. Do you know what though? I promise, I’ll make it all worth it. Dom, how long are you going to keep on lying to yourself? You didn’t come out to the ring last week to help Becky. You came out so you can be closer to me. And that’s okay, because I meant what I said when I said, that I want to take everything away from Rhea Ripley, and that includes you.
Finn Balor: Hey, back off. This has been enough. He doesn’t want anything to do with you. In fact, none of The Judgment Day do.
Liv Morgan: Well, what if I don’t want to go? But most importantly, what if he doesn’t want me to go? Well, okay, I’ll go for now.
Liv plays around with Dominik’s hair as she exits the ring to close the segment.
Sheamus Backstage InterviewÂ
Jackie Redmond: Cole, thank you so much. Sheamus, after what happened last week, how pumped are you to get inside the ring with one, Ludwig Kaiser?
Sheamus: How pumped am I? I’m very pumped. I mean, you obviously saw what transpired last week, right, when Ludwig attacked me in the back. He came at me out of nowhere, dropping real bombs. Crazy, right. And here I was, thinking this whole time, that he was just GUNTHER’s big mouth announcer, which his sole purpose was to carry his coat. And yeah, sure, he looks like a living breathing Ken-Doll. He’s annoying. He’s arrogant. But maybe GUNTHER has been holding him back. Maybe there’s more bite to his bark. Tonight, he gets a chance to see if he could go toe-to-toe with The Celtic Warrior. Now, see, I’m on the cusp of 15 years in the WWE, and I stood in the ring with the best of the best. And for me, it’s always been, can the fella across the ring from me gained my respect. And there’s only one way to gain my respect. You got to put on banger after banger.

Truth tells Miz to stop being obsessed with The Judgment Day, it’s starting to get weird.
Sami Zayn & The Alpha Academy SegmentÂ
Sami Zayn:Â Welcome to Pennsylvania, huh? Pretty good to be back. Last time I was here was for WrestleMania, and I think we know how that went. The truth is though, I haven’t really had a lot of time to enjoy the Intercontinental Championship, because this entire time, there’s been one thorn on my side, and that is Chad Gable. Chad, you’ve tried to make this about everyone and everything else. You said it was about GUNTHER, it was about family, it was about The Alpha Academy. The truth is, this is about you and me. And after these past couple of weeks, I have decided that it has gone on for long enough, so here is what I’m proposing. I am proposing that, Chad Gable, come out here, right now. Leave The Alpha Academy behind. You come and face me, man-to-man, and we put an end to all of this, right here and right now.
Maxxine Dupri:Â I’m sorry, Sami. Chad told us that you don’t deserve his time or respect, tonight. He also said that we need to redeem ourselves. And that starts with delivering this message from Chad Gable, himself.
Sami Zayn: Maxxine, listen to me, you don’t have to do this. You don’t have to do this.
Maxxine Dupri:Â From Master Gable, Sami, you really think you can turn my students against me? Ha-Ha. Sami, you are living proof that my teachings can take a pathetic excuse of a human being and make them a champion. Without my help, this ring would be filled with a failure, hanging around backstage, pretending to be a ninja. A child who couldn’t even hang on to his own Money In The Bank Briefcase. A knockoff barbie no one wanted. And a whiny disheveled mess that GUNTHER would have squashed. I already wiped the mat with you the last time we met one-on-one, Sami. So, the only way this ends, is with you giving me, my Intercontinental Championship Match.
Sami Zayn:Â Maxxine, you tell Chad Gable, if that’s what’s going to take to put an end to this, tell him, he’s got it. I will defend the Intercontinental Championship against Chad Gable at Clash At The Castle. But you know what, it’s not about this, right now. And I don’t want to talk to Chad Gable, I want to talk to the three of you. Haven’t you had enough of this? Getting berated, every single week out here, getting humiliated by Chad Gable, week in and week out. You’re better than that. I know you’re all better than that. And these people know that you’re better than that. Chad Gable doesn’t get to decide what you are worth. Now, listen, I understand, I have been in your shoes before. Take it from me, you need to set yourselves free from Chad Gable, once and for all.

Gable poses with the IC Title to close the segment.
– Bron Breakker tells Adam Pearce that he would break Sami Zayn in half. Who doesn’t Bron have an issue with these days? Pearce wants to know what Breakker wants. He’s giving Pearce props for finally putting him in the ring with real competition. Pearce says that the only thing Breakker deserves is another fine. Breakker doesn’t understand the meaning of respect. His issue with Pearce still stems from not being allowed in the KOTR Tournament. Therefore, nobody will be holding Breakker back going forward.
– Chad Gable loves the method acting from Maxxine Dupri and Akira Tozawa. He’s so proud of Otis, he’s still his number one guy. He gives Otis a kiss on the cheek. At Clash At The Castle, Gable is going to become the Intercontinental Champion. Gable tells Alpha Academy to keep up the great work.

Bianca BelAir: Duck and dodge? Girl, ain’t nobody scared of y’all, because y’all can’t whoop us. But maybe if you had the titles, then it would be here on Raw.
Shayna Baszler: Listen, you should be scared of us. Because as soon as we get our title match, we’re going to take those championships, send you packing back to SmackDown, where you can continue to dodge us, the top team in WWE.
Jade Cargill: So, why wait? I mean, B, since they’re so confident, why don’t we give these people what they want, right here, and right now?
Shayna Baszler: Oh, you got it, you’re on.
Adam Pearce: Hold on, hold on. Hold on, ladies, just one second. I just want to make sure that we’re all on the same page, because I wouldn’t normally just put the titles on the line, on the fly, but it sounds like you four want the match?
