On one of the intriguing nights, The Judgment Day kicked off Monday Night Raw. Mr. Money in the Bank Damien Priest came to the middle along with WWE Women's Champion Rhea Ripley and North American Champion Dominik. Surprisingly, Finn Balor did not come with the group, instead, he sent JD McDonagh to pass on a message. The Judgment Day wasn't interested in hearing McDonagh, as he is not a part of the faction. Later, Sami Zayn came out running and attacked JD. The two exchanged blows on the aisle before their match became official.
Shinsuke Nakamura also came to the squared circle to justify his actions from last week. He attacked Seth Rollins last week and this week he and the visionary came face-to-face for an interaction. The two are set to face each other at Payback pay-per-view.
