Jey Uso, Chad Gable, The Wyatt Sicks Segment 

Jey Uso: Welcome to Monday Night Raw. Hold up, Money In The Bank is on Saturday. Only one person is going to snatch that contract. Not Carmelo, not Andrade, not LA Knight, not Chad Gable. You’re looking at him. The new Mr. Money In The Bank, and his name is “Main Event” Jey Uso.

Chad Gable: Enough, okay, enough of that word, I don’t want to repeat it. Oh, really? Well, for your information, you Boston idiots, YEET isn’t even a word. You know what is a word? Miracle. Look it up in the dictionary, and you’ll find a picture of Chad Gable right next to it. Because what I’ve done the last two weeks has been nothing short but miraculous. I overcame an attack from The Wyatts. I overcame my family leaving me. And I overcame two more monsters last week to punch my ticket to Money In The Bank. So, on Saturday, get ready to feast your eyes on another one, because I’m climbing the ladder, winning the contract, and calling myself, Master In The Bank.

Jey Uso: Chad, what are you doing out here, man? Didn’t The Wyatts get you already?

Chad Gable: Get me? What, you think I’m scared, uce? I’m not scared of them. You’re the one that should be scared of them. You took it upon yourself, you stole the fireflies. You know, come to think about it, I’m the missing man. My family left me, high and dry, you know. They should be after you, uce. Jey Uso, the man who abandoned his family.

Jey Uso: Man, I told Uncle Howdy they could have the fireflies. They can have the mosquitos and the cockroaches. I don’t want no smoke with The Wyatts. I’m not trying to end up like your ass. You want to talk about family? The only thing your family did is what I did, and that’s to get out from under a manipulative, scumbag like your ass.

– Before Damian Priest and Dominik Mysterio entered The Judgment Day Clubhouse, Priest said that he was looking forward to seeing Dom finally put his father away for good. Priest asks Dom if he’s had any conversations with Rhea Ripley as of late. Dom says that he did talk to her, and everything is fine. Priest finds that funny because he just got off the phone with her, and she’s pissed off. Dom promises to put an end to the Liv Morgan situation tonight. Priest doesn’t believe Dom because he’s been saying the same thing for the last three weeks. Dom says that the Liv situation is not his fault and Priest is started to sound like his father. Priest finds Liv Morgan in the clubhouse again, which makes him even more upset. Liv has to prepare for her title defense, and she wishes Daddy Dom the best of luck in his match. Finn Balor says that Liv is responsible for bringing the tag titles back to The Judgment Day. Priest continues to express the fact that Liv doesn’t belong in the clubhouse. Finn didn’t appreciate what Priest said about them last week to Seth Rollins. He’s the World Champion, of course they need him more, it was the same way when Rhea Ripley was the Women’s World Champion. Priest is confident in himself despite putting his spot in The Judgment Day on the line. Priest says that he’s going to beat Seth Rollins at Money In The Bank. Finn tells Priest that he’ll have his back. And just like all brothers do, they tell the truth. And the truth is, ever since Priest became the World Heavyweight Champion, he’s changed.

Zelina Vega Backstage Interview 

Cathy Kelley: I’m here with Zelina Vega. And Zelina, last week, Dominik Mysterio offered to help you during your match against Liv Morgan this evening. Have you considered his offer and how have you maintained your focus on Liv Morgan, considering all of the recent chaos she’s caused?

Zelina Vega: Well, just like I told that bootleg Rhea Ripley last week, I’m not really interested in chasing Dirty D, I am more interested in chasing the WWE Women’s World Championship, okay.

Damian Priest, Seth Rollins, Finn Balor Segment 

Seth Rollins: Boston, welcome to Monday Night Rollins. I am a visionary, I am a revolutionary, I am Seth Freakin’ Rollins. Oh, the confetti is coming down, I think it’s a sign. I think it’s a sign that, next week, at this time, I will be standing here, once again, one more time, World Heavyweight Champion. I want to be real with you though, Boston. I want to be real with you, because I think you’ll understand where I’m coming from. I got a secret for you. I haven’t said this out loud to anybody, but I want to share it with you, because this is a championship city, that’s right. You have the Bruins, you got the Sox’s, you got the Pat’s, and judging by this leftover confetti here, you got the 2024 NBA Champions, Boston Celtics. Well deserved, well deserved for an incredible season.

I say this because this is a championship city, you understand the secret I’m about to tell you. I need to win back the World Heavyweight Championship. I need it, I have to have it. I can’t settle for second best. I cannot settle for anything less than a championship. And if I don’t beat Damian Priest at Money In The Bank, then I don’t get another crack at Priest as long as he’s the champion. And if I don’t beat Priest at Money In The Bank, then I got to reevaluate who is Seth Freakin’ Rollins. I got to reevaluate my legacy. But the thing about me, when the pressure is the highest, that is when I’m at my very best. So, this Saturday, Money In The Bank, when I take that title that Priest has been keeping warm for me since WrestleMania, not only will I take the title from Priest, I’m going to take Priest from The Judgment Day. But what I want everyone to understand is, it’s not my mission to breakup The Judgment Day. But without The Judgment Day, Damian Priest has the opportunity to be the version of himself.

Finn Balor: Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to one half of your new World Tag Team Champions. So, I should be in a good mood tonight, but I’m not. I’m in a bad mood. In fact, I’m in a real bad mood, and you want to know why I’m in a bad mood? Because everything around here seems to be changing. What it means to be in The Judgment Day is changing. Damian Priest is changing. And you know what, Seth, I blame you. It’s all your fault.

Seth Rollins: Oh, shut up, man. You know what, Damian Priest is his own man, he’s making his own decisions. I don’t put words in his mouth. I don’t even think that you’re mad at Priest for changing, I don’t. You know what I think? I think you’re jealous of Priest, because he’s had the one thing that you couldn’t get, and that’s the World Heavyweight Championship. Now, here’s the deal, Finn. My beef isn’t with you, it’s with Priest. But since you’re out here, and you want to step in my ring, I will knock your teeth right down your throat. Oh, yeah, there’s that Judgment Day Trap. Alright boys, you got one more week to be on the same side, make it worth it, let’s go.

Damian Priest: Yo, yo, stop being paranoid. Nobody is setting you up. There’s no trap.

Seth Rollins: This ain’t your trap? This sure looks like a trap to me.

Damian Priest: No, I said there’s no trap. You know why, because this my business, and nobody else is getting involved in my business. Now, you’re right, Seth, this is about you and me, just you and me. You’re out here trying to tell the world that my days as World Champion are numbered? I can’t tell you how wrong you are, Seth, because this idea you have that you still run Monday Night Raw, those days are numbered.

Seth Rollins: Is that how you feel? Is that how you really feel? If that’s how you feel, you know what, we don’t have to wait till Saturday to get this fight on, so let’s do this thing, right here, right now.

Rollins gets into a brawl with Finn Balor. Priest pulls Balor off of Rollins. Priest says that he can fight his own battles. Rollins SuperKicks Priest into Balor. Rollins nails Balor with The Curb Stomp. Priest plants Rollins with The South Of Heaven Chokeslam to close this segment.

Ludwig Kaiser Promo 

After weeks of continuous hard-fought battles, after proving what Ludwig Kaiser is capable of, after going toe-to-toe with Bron Breakker, and being on the verge of beating him, here comes your fraud of a legend, Sheamus. To viciously attack me from behind, to blindside me, purposely trying to take me out, ending up breaking my ribs. So, after so many years, Sheamus, so many accomplishments, so many people all around the world looking up to you, you finally show your true colors, you showed who you really are. You are nothing but a coward. You know, Sheamus, before, it was about beating you. You were meant to be only one chapter in the story of The Rise Of The Kaiser, but now it’s more than that. Now, I will make it my only goal to come back, not only to beat you, but to embarrass you, to humiliate you, and to end The Celtic Warrior, once and for all.

Uncle Howdy & Bo Dallas Interview 

Bo Dallas: How much longer are we going to keep doing this? What are we even doing here?

Uncle Howdy: Do you honestly believe you’re in the right?

Bo Dallas: I was destined to do this.

Uncle Howdy: Do you think you’re special?

Bo Dallas: Special. Special implies that others are not. But there’s others that are less than that deserve to be forgotten. We were the ones that everyone wanted to forget about. We were the ones that everybody abandoned. We made them notice us.

Uncle Howdy: There you are. How do you believe you can bring them to life?

Bo Dallas: No one chosen. Just willing. Clay in the hands of the potter. Die in the flash to become something beautiful. They become a family. We’ve become a family. Even now, there’s false prophets parading around, belittling their family for their own gain. It’s disgusting. They must pay for their sins.

Uncle Howdy: And you think this is your responsibility?

Bo Dallas: I am the voice of the reckoning.

Uncle Howdy: I am the reckoning.

Bo Dallas & Uncle Howdy: I am nobody. I set me free. I free me from the cave. I am nobody. I gave them a family. I made them beautiful. I am the reckoning. I set them free. There you are.

– Coming out of the commercial break, we see Chad Gable talking to Otis in the catering section. Gable just saw the new Wyatt video and they’re obviously talking about him. He’s going to need help. He’s been critical of Otis and his choses. Those things were hurtful. Otis says that he doesn’t hate Chad. This is Gable’s problem now, not The Academy. Gable doesn’t know who they’re going to target next. It could be Otis, Tozawa or Maxxine. Gable says that he’ll have Otis back because he’s his number one guy.
