“Then. Now. Forever. Together.” The WWE video leads us into the show.

The Raw video plays, and we go live into the MVP Arena to see a big pyrotechnics display.

Kevin Owens makes his way to the ring to a big ovation. Footage is shown of Owens returning on SmackDown. Owens says he joined the WarGames match this past Friday to take on the Bloodline. Owens did this to get to one specific person. That person is not Sami Zayn. Owens still considers Zayn to be a brother. The person Owens is coming to Survivor Series for is Roman Reigns. It’s been two long years since they last faced each other in the ring. This Saturday, Owens is coming to remind Reigns about who the hell he is. He is Kevin Owens. He is the guy that took Reigns to the limit three times. Owens is the guy that would have ended that history-making title reigns before it started if not for the Bloodline. Owens is coming to WarGames to take out the entire Bloodline. The next time they face, there will be nothing stopping Owens from kicking Reigns’ ass and taking his titles.

A “Kevin Owens” chant picks up. Owens showed up on SmackDown last Friday because he was extended an invitation by some guys. Owens thought it would be rude not to return the favor, so he’s not coming alone. The Brawling Brutes make their way to the ring through the crowd. Drew McIntyre soon follows behind them, coming down the aisle.

Drew McIntyre and Sheamus will battle The Usos on SmackDown, with the winning team securing the advantage in the WarGames match.

The Brawling Brutes and Drew McIntyre get in the ring. Ridge Holland says, “Albany… it’s fight night!” Sheamus says there’s a fire cooking in the stove. This Saturday night will be the most painstaking, career-altering match in the history of WWE. This Saturday, it’s WarGames! Sheamus told Sami Zayn that he would crap his Ucey pants when he found out who their fifth member was. That fifth member is the Prize Fighter” K.O.! McIntyre says he can’t remember when Reigns and his Bloodline weren’t holding the top titles hostage using the numbers game. This Saturday, it’ll all change. You’re looking at five lads that would walk into hell with a smile on their faces to tear apart the Bloodline. There are no rules. McIntyre asks if they’re ready for a war.

The Judgment Day comes out to the stage. Rhea Ripley tells Drew McIntyre to shut up. The only thing people will be talking about at Survivor Series is how many women she’ll tear apart. This is Monday Night Raw, the show that the Judgment Day runs. Damian Priest says this isn’t playtime. If they’re in the ring, they better show respect to the Judgment Day. Dominik Mysterio tells them to go back to SmackDown and tells his deadbeat dad he said hello.

Finn Bálor says he’s here to say something to AJ Styles. Styles has been stealing from him for so long that it’s time for taxing. Bálor is coming for him. As for the people in the ring, Bálor hopes the Bloodline destroys them. The next time they show up on Raw, the Judgment Day won’t be so nice.

Sheamus asks Bálor, a fellow Irishman, how he’s doing. They may have homes 10 miles apart, but they’re worlds apart. Sheamus says he has no respect for Bálor. Bálor is the kind of guy he’s come to despise. Bálor says even salt looks like sugar, and he’s salty. Sheamus says he’s been waiting a long time to get in the ring and tear Bálor apart. Sheamus suggests they do the Judgment Day vs. the Brawling Brutes right here and now. Bálor says Sheamus is speaking his language. Priest accepts.

The Judgment Day gets in the ring and starts to brawl with the Brawling Brutes! The Brutes quickly clear them from the ring.
