-After the new “Then, Now, Forever, Together” brand stamp, they showed an aerial view of Raleigh, N.C. Joe Tessitore touted the city’s sports and cutting-edge tech business spirit and said it reflected that of modern day WWE. Then they showed the arrivals of the Usos, The Judgment Day (who crossed paths with the El Grande Americanos; Dom smiled at them), and Rusev.

-They cut to the cheering fans in the arena and then Tessitore and Wade Barrett at ringside.

-A several minute long highlight package aired on the main event of last week’s Raw ending with Asuka spraying mist into the eyes of Rhea Ripley who was saving Iyo Sky.
