“Then. Now. Forever. Together.” The WWE video leads us into the show.
Video: Last Monday on Raw, Seth Rollins won a Money in the Bank Qualifying Match after a lot of interference. After the match, CM Punk returned to attack him.
Pre-Show Arrivals
The WWE Drone shows us an overhead shot of the BOK Center. Sami Zayn is shown arriving at the arena earlier today. We also see World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso entering. Seth Rollins is in the building with Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and “Big” Bronson Reed.
Tonight, AJ Styles will battle El Grande Americano and CM Punk in a Money in the Bank Triple Threat Qualifying Match. Stephanie Vaquer, Raw’s newest edition, WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Liv Morgan, and Ivy Nile will also battle in a Money in the Bank Triple Threat Qualifying Match.
Michael Cole and Pat McAfee welcome us to the show. McAfee shows a replay of a bet between him and Cole. Cole lost the bet, so he must wear a tank top for the show. Cole removes his jacket and shirt to reveal an Indiana Pacers jersey. The crowd boos the Pacers jersey. McAfee says, “You look like an asshole.”
CM Punk kicks off the show
CM Punk makes his entrance to a big ovation. A loud “CM Punk” chant fires up. Punk asks, “Is it great to be alive on a Monday night in Tulsa, Oklahoma, or what?” It’s summertime and Money in the Bank time. Punk also hears some Thunder (referencing the home team). Cole groans. Punk tells the crowd that they can root for any basketball team, but if the NBA Finals are on, they need to make sure they’re watching Monday Night Raw or SmackDown. McAfee says, “Good plug.”
Punk says it’s the “Summer of Punk” time. Money in the Bank is around the corner. Punk has won the match twice and successfully cashed it in both times. He’s looking forward to doing it for the third time. It’s the Summer of Punk. It’s time that CM Punk got some gold around his waist. There are a lot of great champions in WWE. There’s an even longer list of challengers. Two people are at the top of the mountain. One of them is Jey Uso. The crowd explodes with a “YEET” chant. Punk says that when he wins the briefcase, Uso needs to remember it’s not personal. It’s business. The other person who might take it personally is John Cena. Punk says he’s been in places like this for years, hearing people go “banana” (he points to people dressed as bananas; this also references Pat Patterson’s grasp on English plurality) for John Cena. Now the tables have turned since Cena sold his soul to a bald fraud goof. When he wins Money in the Bank, if he chooses, he’s always had Cena’s number. Punk says, “I’m gonna come pick the bones, you little bitch!” The crowd roars.
Punk says we’re live on Monday night. He’s no longer just happy to be here. It’s all about the money, but it’s time CM Punk became champion one more time. The crowd cheers. Punk says he’ll see them at Money in the Bank when he qualifies tonight.
Sami Zayn’s music hits. The crowd sings Zayn’s song. A light “We want Truth” chant picks up. Punk says he’s not mad to be interrupted by Zayn. Zayn says he appreciates that. A “Sami” chant picks up. The reason he’s out here is that this is the first time since Punk has been back where he’s said what his plan is. Punk wants to become World Champion. Zayn also has ambitions to become World Champion. Unfortunately for him, Money in the Bank isn’t in his path. Thanks to Paul Heyman, Seth Rollins, Bronson Reed, and Bron Breakker, it’s not in the cards for him. It is for Punk. Zayn is out here to underscore for Punk the importance of winning. Zayn says, “You must win.” Tonight is more must-win than it’s ever been. Punk has talked about the champions, but he has to be thinking about Rollins and his group. Zayn says Punk needs to put that out of his head. He’ll deal with them along with Jey Uso. Punk says he has Zayn’s back. Zayn tells him to think about the task at hand. Rollins is always thinking of Punk. Punk says Rollins has never beaten him. Zayn says if Punk gets in the Money in the Bank match, the match will be changed. If Rollins wins the briefcase, this place is over. Punk and Zayn won’t like it. Zayn says, “I need you to win tonight. We all need you to win tonight!” The crowd cheers.
Zayn says he wants Punk to win. Should Punk win the match, the contract, and then the World Championship, they’ll be face-to-face in this ring again. They will have a very different conversation from the one they’re having right now. Punk steps up to him and says he looks forward to it. They shake hands before Zayn walks off.

Lynch has given Valkyria any greatness she has experienced. If Valkyria squeaks out a victory, that’ll be the worst thing that’s ever happened to her because Lynch not being able to challenge for the title hurts Valkyria. Lynch is the best thing that’s ever happened to Valkyria. Lynch says that when she wins the Women’s Intercontinental Championship, Valkyria will have to raise her hand, the same hand that held her down.

“The Man” Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring. Lynch gets on the apron and goes to speak, but Valkyria tells her to shut up. Lynch showed that she’s delusional. Lynch’s downfall needs to be studied. She got over being a good person who never gives up. Now, Lynch has given up being a good person. Valkyria has changed into an angry person. Valkyria says she needed to get angry. No one in her entire life has hurt her the way Lynch has. The crowd is giving her the “WHAT” treatment. Valkyria says Lynch unlocked the side of her that can destroy her. She beat Lynch blind. Now, at Money in the Bank, she’ll beat the crap out of her. Valkyria will ensure that Lynch will never poison what it means to be the Women’s Intercontinental Champion.
Lynch says the only thing poisoned is Valkyria’s perspective. Valkyria says Lynch hurt her worse than anyone else. She may have hurt Valkyria physically, but not emotionally. Lynch thinks Valkyria is looking for a reason to hate her so she can try to replace her. Lynch wanted to make her better. What will hurt Valkyria the most is when she has to raise her hand.
Lynch walks off, but Valkyria says she spoke a lot of big words. Valkyria wants to give Tulsa a preview of Money in the Bank. Lynch says she doesn’t fight in Tulsa. Valkyria chases her up the aisleway and attacks her. Referees come out to break them up.

Video: “Main Event” Jey Uso vs. “The Ring General” Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship next week on Raw.
Locker Room Segment
World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso is in his locker room when Gunther walks up. Gunther says he just wants to talk and sits next to him. Gunther says the World Heavyweight Championship is personal to him. Gunther appreciates all the effort Uso put into being a great champion. Because Uso refused to think with his head instead of his heart, that’s why he’ll take it. Uso is selfless in a selfish business. Sami Zayn needed him, so now he’s a week out from their match and isn’t 100%. If CM Punk gets in trouble, he’ll be there for him. Two days before he defends the title against him, he’ll compete at Saturday Night’s Main Event (Money in the Bank) because it’s important to Cody Rhodes. All of that is no business of the World Heavyweight Champion. Gunther thanks him. Ever since he lost to Uso, he knew he’d avenge it. Right now, Uso is making it very easy for him. In one week, the party is over.
Uso stops Gunther from leaving and says, “Three letters, one word: tap.” Uso says he’ll see him next week.
In the arena, AJ Styles makes his entrance. The main event is next.

Winner by Pinfall: El Grande Americano
El Grande Americano will join Andrade, Seth Rollins, LA Knight, Solo Sikoa, and Penta in the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
