WWE RAW REPORT: THE RAW PART OF THE FINALS ARE SET, THE JUDGMENT DAY IN DANGER?, A RETURN TO TV, BRON IS ANGRY, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2024-05-20 23:00:00

Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring.

Becky says she will be defending the title in five days against Liv Morgan.  They have a history and they have fought on the same side and against each other.  Liv has never beaten her.  Becky says we are dealing with a different Liv Morgan.  She is bent on revenge.  Liv things this is what it will take to beat her.

Liv Morgan interrupts.

Liv says the way that Becky is gaslighting the WWE Universe is insane.  Becky punched her and she is the bad guy for trying to retaliate.  Damage CTRL come out and she bails and she isn't ready for a fight?  She doesn't care about anyone.  She is only out here to complete the Liv Morgan Revenge Tour.

Becky says after ten years you have finally figured out what you are doing.  Becky says she has known since she was fifteen and she is a best selling author.  Becky says she wanted to break through glass ceilings.  After twenty-two years, her purpose is the same.  She wants to leave this place better than she found it.   Your purpose is revenge.  If you get it, what's next?

Liv says Becky is really really delusional.  The fact that you come out and say 'I break barriers and glass ceilings' because you are the most selfish person in this entire company.  Becky doesn't care about you or this place.  All Becky has cared about is herself.  Liv says you can't hear her because your heads are so far up Becky's ass.  Liv thanks Becky for not making it all about her.  After she is done with her Revenge Tour, she will finally sit where she belongs . . . at the top of the division as your Women's Champion.

Becky says that you bring these people into this.  They know you are lying.  You can't trick the people and Becky says she does it all for them.  Becky says she will put her body on the line for all of them.  Becky says she came for a fight so why not come to the ring and fight her.

Liv makes her way to the ring and then she gets on the apron and backs off.  Liv laughs and she says she wishes Becky could see how stupid she looks.  On Saturday, they have a title match.  She will become the new Women's Champion.

Damian Priest is in CLUBHOUSE and he wants to know what happened.  He tells Carlito he needs to earn his keep.  Dom says he thought JD was going to take care of Strowman.  Priest tells JD to go to Pearce for a match.  Priest says he doesn't recognize them any more.

Finn says the wheels are falling off.  Finn tells JD to talk to Pearce NOW.

We are back and Xavier Woods is cleared to compete and Kofi is excited.

Karrion Kross and Scarlett show up and he says that Woods has been through a rough stretch, but there is always more time to turn things around.

Kayla is with Ludwig Kaiser and she asks him if Gunther is overlooking Jey.

Kaiser says he hopes Jey takes it better than Sheamus did.  Sheamus used to love to fight and let his fists do the talking.  Sheamus used his fists to punch the keyboard and he calls Sheamus a keyboard warrior.  Sheamus is going to stay home to protect his legacy or he will come back for Ludwig Kaiser to put him down.

Drew McIntyre shows up and he says he wonders why he is here.  Pearce decided not to use one of his best stars to watch Jey Uso.  Drew complains about not being given a chance to speak so he decides to talk now.

Drew says Priest thought he got one over him last week.  You only get one over him when he lets you.  Drew says he is playing chess while Priest is playing with his guyliner.  He tells Priest to focus on him because he beat a real champion at Wrestlemania and then he will beat Priest too.
