In-Ring: Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio, Liv Morgan, Damian Priest

Rhea Ripley makes her way to the ring to a monster pop from the Denver crowd. Ripley gets in the ring and looks very happy. Along with Damian Priest, she was victorious over “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio and Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan in a Mixed Tag Team Match at WWE Bash in Berlin. Ripley says, “Welcome to Monday Night Mami.” She says it feels good to be out here saying that again, but what feels even better than that is when she and her Terror Twin, Damian Priest, absolutely brutalized Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio. A “Mami” chant picks up. They’re not done destroying Judgment Day. They’re just getting started. At Bash in Berlin, she pinned the Women’s World Champion, so she thinks it’s time to get back the one thing she never actually lost.

“Dirty” Dominik Mysterio’s music interrupts her. Mysterio comes out to the stage to loud boos. Mysterio is sporting a black eye. Mysterio starts to speak, but the crowd loudly boos him, causing him to shout at them in Spanish. Ripley says no one wants to hear Mysterio’s voice. She tells him to go in the back and get his girlfriend before she gives him another black eye. Mysterio starts to speak, but the crowd boos him down again. Mysterio starts to get in the ring. He says Liv Morgan is still recovering from what Ripley did to her at Bash in Berlin. A “You suck” chant picks up. Mysterio says she and Priest took advantage of him and Morgan. They were jetlagged and didn’t get any sleep for multiple reasons. Mysterio says he’s here to let Ripley know that Morgan will accept her challenge. Just because she’s a little banged up, she’s not afraid of Ripley. The crowd heat for Mysterio is incredible. Morgan has beaten Ripley before. She’ll do it again. After Mysterio wins the Intercontinental Championship, they’ll both have gold.

Ripley will explain this in a way that he’ll understand: She calls him stupid in Spanish. If Morgan doesn’t want to come out to face her, Ripley wants him to relay this message: she’ll face Morgan anytime in any place. Mysterio thinks about it. Liv Morgan tries to blindside Ripley, but Ripley elbows her in the face. Ripley goes after Mysterio, but Morgan shoves her. Ripley falls to the floor, but her foot gets caught in the bottom and middle rope! Ripley is hanging upside down as Morgan kicks away at her vulnerable leg.

Chad Gable gets on the microphone and wants Denver to give a round of applause to the greatest fighting family in WWE, American Made. Gable says the Wyatt Sicks suck. Last week, it was supposed to be a one-on-one classic with Uncle Howdy, but he had to get his freakshow involved. Gable knows what it takes to beat him. Gable is calling for an 8-man Tag Team Match. Gable will make sure it’s the end of this crap because he wants it to be a Street Fight. They’re not getting rid of the Wyatts for the crowd and the locker room. They’re doing it for America.

The lights go out, and Uncle Howdy walks out to the stage. Howdy says, “375 days… my sanity crumbled. My path is in the void now. The silence is deafening, but I… I can still hear it. My life is no longer mine. So if this is the path that you have chosen, who am I to neglect you and your undoing? You gambled your very being, and we will collect the debt.” Howdy laughs as the rest of the Wyatt Sicks join him on the stage and pose.

Deville takes Valkyria down before Baszler and Stark hit a double-team catapult into a knee. Deville grabs a microphone and wants some respect. This is a reminder of how pathetic everyone is, including the crowd. There’s not a man in the audience that can take them home, and there’s not a woman in the locker room that can take them, period. If they want to step up, she dares them to shoot their shot.

Backstage: Terror Twins

Rhea Ripley’s knee is braced, and she has a crutch. She tells Damian Priest that it’s just a precaution. Priest says Adam Pearce told him that Finn Bálor will only face him in a Tag Team Match.

Punk says he never gets sick of the chanting. It’s great to be alive on a Monday Night in Denver, Colorado. Punk says he can’t wait to get home to his lovely wife and beautiful dog to celebrate, but he wanted to make a pitstop in Denver to celebrate with them. A Strap Match was held, and he is on the other side of a big, ugly issue. Now that the personal issue is out of the way, it’s time to get down to business. Punk is a businessman. When he came back to WWE, he famously said he was not there to make friends. He’s here to make money. Punk will take the money any way he can get it. Either in cold, hard cash, love from the crowd, direct deposit, or gold.

Speaking of Bash in Berlin, another person had a tough battle and came out on top. Punk says he’s talking about Gunther. This is what he means when he’s talking about business. Gunther took Randy Orton, one of the best to ever do it, to his limit and went past it. Gunther is the champion. Nothing can replace the chip on his shoulder other than the belt. Punk put Drew McIntyre to sleep. It’s time CM Punk woke up as champion. Another “CM Punk” chant picks up. Punk congratulates Gunther and tells him to enjoy it because they’ll enjoy taking it off him.

In-Ring: Gunther, Sami Zayn

World Heavyweight Champion Gunther makes his way to the ring. On Saturday, Bash in Berlin was the highest-grossing gate for an arena show in WWE history. These Denver degenerates are looking at the man responsible for it, their World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Gunther. There is more to celebrate because he beat one of the greatest legends the business has said on Saturday. Gunther said a lot of personal things to Randy Orton before Saturday. Even though he was right, he did it because he wanted the greatest Randy Orton of all time. Now Gunther can stand here and claim he has beaten the greatest version of Randy Orton. At the end of the day, that big weekend was just another chapter in the legacy of the greatest World Heavyweight Champion in history.

Sami Zayn’s music hits! Zayn gets in the ring, and the crowd loudly sings his music. A loud “Sami” chant fires up. Zayn says it’s crazy that he’s listening to Gunther talk about legacy. Zayn has been thinking about his Intercontinental Championship reign he just had, as well as where he’s been and where he’s heading. Everyone talks about the Intercontinental Championship as the “workhorse title.” Of all the greats who have held the title, people always forget to mention that the true greats, the legends like “Macho Man” Randy Savage, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Bret “Hitman” Hart, they won the title first and used it as a stepping stone to the World Heavyweight Championship. Every one of those guys did that. That’s exactly what Gunther did. Now, that’s exactly what he’s going to do. Zayn is coming after the one championship that has eluded him his entire career. Zayn wants the World Heavyweight Title.

Gunther says all of those guys Zayn named, including him, have used the Intercontinental Championship as a stepping stone. After their title reigns, they stepped up. Zayn has never stepped up. Zayn’s name is not on that impressive list of legends. Gunther says that is why people like Zayn. When he gets knocked out, he gets up and returns to the ring. Whenever things don’t go his way in his career, he brushes it off and comes back. Gunther hears passion in his voice and sees fire in his eyes. If Zayn really wants a shot at this title more than anything else, Gunther’s answer is no. Gunther walks off on Zayn.

Gunther walks off, but Zayn demands to know why Gunther is walking out on a challenge. Zayn thinks that of all the great guys Gunther has beaten, Gunther knows since he’s been in WWE, he’s the only one who has beaten him in the middle of the ring. Gunther smirks and turns around. Zayn says Gunther can run and hide as long as he wants, but Zayn is coming for him and will be the World Heavyweight Champion. Gunther turns and keeps walking.

Backstage: Jey Uso, Bron Breakker

Jackie Redmond is backstage with “Main Event” Jey Uso. She asks if Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley have given any advice. Uso starts getting excited when WWE Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker approaches him. Breakker says there isn’t a member of Uso’s family who has beaten a member of his family. It’s not going to start with Uso. Breakker is giving him a chance to drop out of the tournament and walk away to keep chasing Dominik Mysterio’s sloppy seconds. If Uso comes after Breakker and his title, he’ll lose. Uso smiles and gives advice to the rookie. Breakker has his attention. Uso is going to win this tournament, win the title, and beat Breakker’s ass while he does it.
