Micheal Cole and Corey Graves then welcomes us to the show and ring announcer Samantha Irvin introduces The Judgment Day (WWE World Tag Team Champions Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh, “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio, WWE Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan and Carlito) and they make their way down to the ring.

Liv Morgan starts off by welcoming fans to RAW and demands that all rise for The Judgment Day. Finn Bálor then says it’s time to remind everyone what Judgment Day is all about, then sends us to a video of their attack on Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest last week. Carlito then calls the attack cool and JD McDonagh says the attack was a long time coming to Ripley and Priest. Bálor then says that Judgment Day isn’t the bad guys, but rather Ripley and Priest. Bálor then says that they betrayed Judgment Day and they got what they deserved and that attack is just a preview of what Morgan and Dominik Mysterio will do to them at Bash In Berlin. Morgan then thanks Ripley for being selfish and egotistical because none of this would have happened if she wasn’t, then says she and Dominik will always be on top. Dominik then adds that Morgan has done things for him that Ripley never did such as beating up Rey Mysterio.

Rey’s music then hits and he makes his way down to the ring with Dragon Lee, Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro. Rey asks Dominik if he’s looked in the mirror recently, then says he’s a lost soul. Rey then says someone needs to put Dominik in his place and he’s even worse now that he is hanging with Morgan. Rey then dares Dominik to nail him so he can knock him down and Dominik says he’d like to see him try. Judgment Day then looks to attack LWO, but LWO gets the better of them. Dragon Lee then flies over the top rope with some assistance to land on The Judgment Day on the outside.
