⚪ Drew McIntyre vs. Solo Sikoa - Lumberjack Match: 14min*

Drew McIntyre and Solo Sikoa are two bulls locking horns due to the events of last month's Clash at the Castle event in Cardiff. Since then, McIntyre has been out for revenge. Aside from The Bloodline, Drew has been the target of the doomsday harbinger Karrion Kross and the seductive siren Scarlett. Tonight, the ring is surrounded by familiar faces, Sheamus, Butch, Ridge Holland, R-Truth, Jimmy & Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, Angelo Dawkins, Montez Ford, Xavier Woods, and Kofi Kingston, all of whom have been victims of the Bloodline.

The WWE Universe is on their feet during this slobber-knocker between the two heavyweights, during the match tensions, rise on the outside, as the lumberjacks brawl. The brawl was caused by Sami Zayn bumping into the Street Profits after being frightened by a debuting Dexter Lumis. This in turn causes a distraction for Solo Sikoa, McIntyre hits the Future Shock DDT to no avail as Solo kicks out, lands a Claymore kick, and the enforcer is still in the match, McIntyre hits a second and third to put away Solo Sikoa.

After the match the brawl continues, Karrion Kross wipes out the remaining lumberjacks on the outside, he then proceeds to take out McIntyre who just pinned Solo Sikoa. Kross screams at McIntyre "TIMES UP!!"

⚪ Liv Morgan(c) vs. Bayley - Fight Pit for the Raw Women's Title: 21min*

The two women started the historic first-ever Fight Pit at a competitive pace before Bayley took control of the game after repeatedly slamming Morgan's head on the steel cage, using the chair to her advantage, and hitting the champ with multiple chair shots. Bayley then introduced the table to the match attempting to hit the belly to belly on the table but the Raw Women's Champion Liv Morgan fought out of it and then used the kendo stick to punish Bayley she then laid Bayley on the table attempting a frog splash but Damage CTRL ran to the ring with pliers busting the steel cage open and attacked Morgan but Morgan fought back but Bayley was back to her feet and Morgan used a trash can and hit Bayley with it and delivered frog splash simultaneously to Damage CTRL. Morgan went for the win on Bayley but reversed it into a roll-up, she kicked out but then started brawling with Morgan having the advantage Liv went for her finishing move but Damage CTRL were back on their feet and saved Bayley. The trio then attacked Morgan ending with Bayley hitting the belly to belly on piles of chairs but it took as much impact on Bayley as it took on Morgan she couldn't make the pin. The WWE Women's Tag team Champions Damage CTRL then lifted Bayley to put on Morgan for the pin but she grabbed a fire extinguisher and used it on them affecting the eyes before finally going for the roll-up to make a historic win a reality!

And Still. Liv Morgan is your Raw Women's Champion!

⚪ Austin Theory vs. Braun Strowman - Finals of The Undisputed WWE Title Contendership Tournament: 11min*

Braun Strowman defeats Austin Theory!

After the match, The Usos, Sami Zayn, and Solo Sikoa laid out Braun Strowman.

⚪ Matt Riddle vs. Seth "Freakin" Rollins - Ladder Match for the Money in the Bank briefcase: 25min*

In another grudge match befitting of Extreme Rules, Mr. Money in the Bank Matt Riddle and Seth “Freakin” Rollins tore each other apart in a Money in the Bank Ladder Match!

Riddle looked to his MMA roots, hitting Rollins with an outlandish side kick while using the ladders as momentum.

As Philadelphia was singing Rollins’ tune, The Visionary used devious tactics to get out of a Triangle Hold, thumbing Riddle’s eye. Rollins emulated WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam, hitting a Five-Star Frog Splash off the top of a Ladder!

Much like a few weeks ago, The Visionary locked in the Peruvian Necktie, but Riddle countered with an RKO. After Riddle attempted another RKO, Rollins escaped and struck Riddle with the Stomp. Why is Matt Riddle relying on Randy Orton's moves?!

Rollins scaled the ladder, leading to a fist fight on top of the ladder. Using the ladder to his advantage, The Architect then hit The Original Bro with a Buckle Bomb or rather a “Ladder” Bomb.

Rollins connected with a Pedigree and raced to climb the ladder and recreate his historic Money in the Bank win from years ago but he was met with another RKO from Riddle onto the mat, which gave some breathing room to Riddle.

In an insane feat, Riddle flew from the ring, hitting The Visionary, who was placed over a ladder at ringside, with a Broton.

Riddle then locked in a triangle hold, forcing Rollins to deliver multiple Buckle Bombs in an attempt to get out of the submission. Riddle weathered the storm and kept the hold locked in, forcing Rollins to pass out.

On this night, the overly emotional Rollins with a lacked vision of the fight field proved key as The Original Bro garnered retribution in his rivalry with The Visionary, coming out on top as your Mr. Money in the Bank!

⚪ AJ Styles vs. Finn Balor - If Styles loses, he joins The Judgment Day: 16min*

The match started at an explosive pace as Styles looked to take the fight to all members of Judgment Day. Styles quickly a clothesline followed by a sling blade before taking out Priest on the outside with a suicide dive and ambushing the new member in Dominik Mysterio! Finn Balor was able to recover and use the opportunity to take offense of his own with a kick to the midsection and an Insiguiry. Balor would go for the missile dropkick but Styles counters into a sling blade and manage to lock in the calf crusher on Balor. Balor would be locked in the calf crusher for an inconsiderate amount of time before Ripley would land Balor a hand as she pushed the bottom rope toward Balor and Balor managed to break the hold. Styles would confront Ripley on the outside before Balor came flying taking out Styles as Ripley managed to get out of the way. Balor delivers a missile dropkick from the outside into the ring steps. He continued with the offense as he kept throwing Styles into the barricade. Back in the ring now Balor goes for the missile dropkick and connects now and goes for the coup de grace but Styles get out of the way and connect with a Paley kick followed by another one from the apron by Styles. Styles look to end this match now with a phenomenal forearm but Ripley gets on the apron to distract the referee while Preist faces off with Styles on the apron. Rey Mysterio would even the odds by taking out Priest with a Dropkick to the ring post. The legendary Luchador shared a moment with his son Dominik trying to convince him to leave Judgment Day and that the two will "make it right" again, here, Dominik would officially turn his back on his father and lay him down with a devastating clothesline. Balor would pull Styles back into the ring but Styles would manage to roll up Balor for the three counts and gain the victory.

What followed was a cold-blooded attack by all the members of Judgment Day on the wrecked AJ Styles and Rey Mysterio.

The Baddest Women On The Planet targets the arm of the EST with her patented armbar, with the addition of weapons, the threat of Bianca Belair losing her championship seems more eminent than ever. The EST manages to stay in the match but the tables turn when Shayna Baszler rushes through the crowd, outnumbering Bianca Belair.
