WWE RAW Grand Rapids, Michigan
The commentators are Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett.
– Tonight is WWE RAW, the red show starts with the commentators welcoming us and we see the WWE Superstars arriving in the room.
– Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez arrive in the ring. Morgan welcomes us to Monday Night Morgan. She knows that Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair want the rematch following SmackDown, so they are not here alone. Nia Jax’s music hits and she comes to the ring with Tiffany Stratton and Candice LeRae.
Nia Jax says she wants to fix a few things. She doesn’t like Rodriguez and she doesn’t care about her. Jax says she had her conflicts with Liv Morgan, she doesn’t like her, same thing. Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill and Naomi enter the ring. Belair says if Nia Jax wants to do something now is the time to do it. But they were right on one point, they are not alone. Iyo Sky arrives.
The four wrestlers enter the ring in front of Liv Morgan’s clan. Morgan says it’s cool to have Iyo Sky but they’re still missing someone. They are five against four and she knows that surely no one behind the scenes will want to team up with them. Morgan asks who wants to try first? Rhea Ripley comes to the ring !
Ripley enters with a protective mask on her face. Ripley yells ”WarGames” and headsbutts Morgan. The clash breaks out between the two clans in the ring.
– We present a video of SmackDown last Friday with the Bloodline and Bronson Reed, summary of the show here.
– Back after the break, we present a video on the announcement of Travis Scott who will do the RAW theme song for Netflix, details here.

– After the match, the Creed Brothers come to the ring to support Gable, but Gable pushes the Creeds away. Gable says he’s not a loser like them, is he? The Creeds begin to jostle each other to motivate and energize each other. Gable says that’s what he’s looking for in terms of energy. American Made celebrate together in the ring.
– Behind the scenes, we find Judgment Day. Finn Balor tells Morgan that everything will be fine with Ripley, Belair, Cargill and Sky. He can take charge of the team for tonight if that helps. Morgan agrees. Balor says Dominik Mysterio beat Damian Priest in the main event of RAW, now Carlito and Dominik are going to show the WarRaiders what Judgment Day can do. He has known the WarRaiders for a long time, their weakness is the neck. They should target the neck, or else it will frustrate the WarRaiders and make them even more dangerous. JD McDonagh leaves with Balor because he wants to talk with him.
– Back, behind the scenes, we find the Miz. Miz says the last few weeks have been full of emotion. After thinking about it, he made his choice. He deserves a trophy for playing this betrayal role on the Wyatt Sicks. It’s impossible to change him like the Wyatt Sicks believed. Karrion Kross says that the Wyatt Sicks are not invincible and we have seen it. Kross says he is not afraid and we will continue to play the game he controls.
– Backstage, Ludwig Kaiser asks Gunther why he did that last Monday. Gunther says it’s time for Kaiser to make a name for himself and speak for himself. From now on, Kaiser must stand as a single man. Kaiser says he understands. Gunther stops him and asks if he still sees the old Ring General. Kaiser says nothing has changed, he still sees it 100%. Gunther says it’s impossible to affect him, the Damian Priest case is settled. Kaiser shakes his hand and leaves.
Gunther walks further and applies a Sleeper on Damian Priest who was from behind. Priest manages to push him away and punches him in the stomach. Priest says that in the ring Gunther may be the Ring General, but in the streets he’s the king. Adam Pearce asks him what’s going on. Priest says his champion needs some ice.

– After the fight, Kaiser attacks Breakker and DDTs him. Kaiser follows up with a Running Drop Kick on Sheamus against the steel step. Kaiser says he’s not going to stop while Sheamus is still here.
– Backstage, Jey, Jimmy Uso and Sami Zayn find Seth Rollins. Jey says they’ve all had issues with Roman Reigns in the past. But they decided to put aside their differences for this story. Sami Zayn says Seth Rollins was able to do it last year with Cody Rhodes for WarGames. So he asks Seth Rollins to do the same thing this year. Rollins says he would team up with Sami, Jey and Jimmy, but he would never do it with Roman Reigns. Rollins says it hurts him because he would like to have Bronson Reed in a cage, but this Bloodline thing isn’t worth it to him. Tonight he will take care of Bronson Reed and Reed will not be able to be present at WarGames. When it comes to WarGames, it’s all about Sami, Jey and Jimmy.
– Back, we present a video on Dakota Kai. Kai says she’s been on the sidelines for the past four months. Doubt began to rise in his head. She was afraid that she would no longer have her place or that fans would no longer be interested in her. Kai says that she has never liked this discipline as much after this absence. She can’t wait to show why she can be a champion.
– Commentators confirm the first women’s WarGames Match 2024 following the return of Rhea Ripley. Bianca Belair and Nia Jax will face off next week to determine who has the advantage.

– After the fight, the War Raiders celebrate their victory, but Finn Balor and JD McDonagh arrive to attack them from the back. The attack ends with a Coup de Grace from Balor on Erik.
– A Wyatt Sicks video plays. Bo Dallas says he tried to notify him. The confidence of innocence is the best asset. He tried to warn her, but he betrayed himself. He’s sorry for what happens next, but he chose it. Because of his actions he will be scarred forever and he will lose what he loves most.
– Back, we present a video on Lyra Valkyria. Valkyria says she was thrown into the fire right from her debut on RAW and she was able to stay strong and triumph. She is Lyra Valkyria, she does not burn, she can only rise. It happens for everyone.
– Behind the scenes, Alpha Academy stops Kofi Kingston to find out how things are going with Xavier Woods. Kingston says he doesn’t know. Xavier Woods comes in and says they need to talk. They have only been arguing for the past few weeks. Despite all that, he only thinks of Karrion Kross who said that the New Day is dead. Kingston says the New Day is not dead, Woods needs to remember what the New Day is made of. Otis calms the two down and says they are all friends here. Woods tells Otis to mind his own business. Otis has no advice for the best team in history. It’s not for nothing that Chad Gable decided to abandon them. Next week, he and Kingston will face Otis and Tozawa to restart with a victory.
