After defeating Jeff Hardy in last week's main event for the WWE Title, The All-Mighty Bobby Lashley opens Raw to celebrate his glory with the WWE Title and MVP. Bobby Lashley thinks you're stupid if you didn't see it coming. He went through everybody to get to this moment, whether it's Edge, Goldberg, Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Sam Rigleer, or the former WWE Champion Jeff Hardy!

Bobby Lashley is unstoppable now but he knows he is a target to all the hungry stars in the back and he also knows he can eat them! But since that'll take him some time he prefers whoever comes next should go through Jeff Hardy first.

The Queen Charlotte Flair came out to address Sasha Banks, who lost to Becky Lynch at Survivor Series in a Champion vs Champion, wanting the Raw Women's Title from The Boss and saying that it's the only thing in her head right now as she looks to become an 8-times Women's Champion, the most in history of FBW.

Charlotte Flair is tied with Alexa Bliss with the most title wins at 7 times.

Women's Tag Team Champions Doudrop & Nikki A.S.H. walked to the arena to stop Charlotte in the middle of her speech because they expect Flair to acknowledge that Nikki A.S.H. was the reason Team Raw won at Survivor Series and not Charlotte, this claim prompts Charlotte to laugh hysterically which led to Nikki A.S.H. trying to attack Flair. A match was made official.

It should be them! The main event of every PPV? It should be them! The video at the start of the show? It should be them! But it's not. And guess what? Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss actually agree with their words! They even went further to make jokes about the situations but the jokes were unintentionally insulting to Roode & Ziggler.
