The opening pyrotechnics explode as the Monday Night Raw theme song blares through the speakers. The camera pans over the packed arena, capturing the electric energy of the crowd. Suddenly, Drew McIntyre’s music hits and he strides to the ring, a determined look on his face.
Drew McIntyre: On Smackdown, The Rock made a huge mistake getting involved in my match with Solo. The millions…and millions…of The Rock’s fans are rejoicing. But The Great One, your celebration is short-lived.
McIntyre pauses and looks around the arena, locking eyes with the camera.
Drew McIntyre: Because at Backlash, I’m calling you out. The Rock, I’m challenging you for the WWE Championship. You may be the People’s Champion, but I am the Chosen One. I will defeat you and that title will be mine!
The crowd erupts as McIntyre’s music hits and he stands tall in the middle of the ring, staring down the entrance ramp.

Opening Contest
Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits vs The Johnny World Order
It was complete and utter pandemonium in the ring as the “Johnny World Order” made their way to the squared circle. Johnny Lawrence, Johnny Gargano, and Johnny Knoxville strutted to the ring, all wearing matching black Cobra Kai gear emblazoned with “JWO” on the back.
“Oh boy, the Johnny World Order is here and they look absolutely ridiculous,” exclaimed Pat McAfee. “I can’t believe these three goofballs actually think they stand a chance against Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits.”
As the bell rang, the Johnnies tried to overwhelm their opponents with their numbers advantage. But the power and athleticism of Lashley and the Profits quickly proved to be too much. Montez Ford hit a massive frog splash on Johnny Knoxville, sending the Jackass star crashing to the mat.
Finally, Bobby Lashley delivered the coup de grace, hoisting Johnny Lawrence up for the Hurt Lock. Lawrence tapped out immediately, his dreams of Johnny World Order domination crushed. Bobby Lashley exited the ring and slowly walked past the Intercontinental title belt smiling.
As the victors celebrated, the three Johnnies slowly made their way up the ramp, their faces painted in agony and embarrassment. It was a disastrous debut for the Johnny World Order – these three Johnnies bit off way more than they could chew.
Winners: Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits

Only In America
‘ alt=”π€” class=xz74otr referrerpolicy=origin-when-cross-origin v:shapes=”_x0000_i1028″> Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the CEO of WWE, Mr. Jeff Murrey!
The crowd gives a lukewarm response as Murrey steps up to the podium, straightening his tie with an air of self-importance.
Jeff Murrey: Good evening, WWE Universe. As your esteemed CEO, I have an important announcement to make.
Murrey pauses and clears his throat dramatically.
Jeff Murrey: For too long, this company has been dominated by European wrestlers like that so-called “Ring General” Gunther. Well, I’m here to put an end to that nonsense. From this moment on, the most prestigious titles in WWE will be American titles!
The crowd erupts in boos, but Murrey ignores them, pounding his fist on the podium.
Jeff Murrey: That’s right, WWE Universe. Next week, we will be holding a tournament to crown a brand new United States Champion! Only the true red-blooded, all-American superstars need apply.
Murrey flashes a smarmy grin, basking in the negative reaction from the crowd.
Jeff Murrey: So if you European wrestlers, or any of you who dare to challenge American supremacy, stay out of my tournament. This title belongs to us – the land of the free and the home of the brave! USA! USA! USA!
Murrey raises his fist in the air as bodyguards flank him, the crowd booing loudly in the background. The camera then cuts away, teasing the upcoming United States Championship tournament.

The bell rings and the match begins. Andrade tries to use his speed and agility to outmaneuver the much larger Reed, landing some stinging strikes and kicks. But Reed refuses to be deterred, using his size and power to overwhelm Andrade.
Reed finally catches Andrade and hoists him up for a massive Tsunami splash, crashing down on top of the Mexican Superstar. He hooks the leg for the pin.
1…2…3!
Reed stands tall in the ring as the crowd cheers loudly. Andrade struggles to his feet, clearly disappointed with the result. Reed raises his fist in triumph as the camera fades out.

Kiss By A Rose
The camera cuts to the backstage area of the NXT arena. Mandy Rose is seen walking through the hallway, a smile on her face, when suddenly a stage hand approaches her carrying a large bouquet of flowers.
Stage Hand: Excuse me, Ms. Rose? These just arrived for you.
Mandy’s face lights up with surprise and delight as she takes the flowers, burying her face in the petals and inhaling deeply.
Mandy: Oh my goodness, these are beautiful! I wonder who they’re from…
Mandy begins searching the bouquet, eventually finding a small envelope nestled among the stems. She opens it and pulls out a card, reading it intently. Her expression slowly shifts from joy to one of unease and concern as she reads the contents.
Mandy (quietly): Sonya…
The camera pans out, revealing Sonya Deville standing in the shadows, a twisted grin on her face. She steps forward, her dark eyes locked onto Mandy.
Sonya: I’m so glad you like the flowers, Mandy. They’re a small token of my…affection for you.
Mandy takes a step back, clutching the bouquet tightly.
Mandy: Sonya, what is the meaning of this? What are you playing at?
Sonya (advancing slowly): Playing? Oh no, Mandy…this is no game. These feelings I have for you, they’re as real as it gets. And I intend to make you see that, one way or another.
Mandy continues backpedaling, her eyes wide with fear and confusion.
Mandy: Sonya, you’re scaring me. Please, just leave me alone!
Sonya (reaching out to caress Mandy’s cheek): Shh, shh…there’s no need to be afraid, my dear. I’m only trying to show you how much you mean to me. And I’ll do whatever it takes to make you see that we belong together.
Mandy flinches away from Sonya’s touch, turning and rushing down the hallway, the flowers clutched tightly in her trembling hands. Sonya watches her go, a disturbing hunger in her eyes.
Sonya (softly): Soon, Mandy…soon you’ll be mine.
The camera lingers on Sonya’s sinister expression as we fade to black.
