Raw Women's Champion Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring.

Becky wants Lacey Evans to come out and she mentions that she keeps hearing Lacey droning on and on.  Becky says the next time that you get within striking distance, you will get what you deserve.  You talk about doing what it takes to get ahead and curry favor.  Why doesn't she kick your ass all over Los Angeles.

Lacey Evans' music plays and she makes her way to the stage.

Lacey says nobody cares.  Lacey says that Becky does not understand her.

Becky says she knows that Lacey would rather talk as slow as possible and not come to the ring.

You see a talk drink of water in a classy hat and under this flawless image is a tough as nails woman who has been through things The Man cannot comprehend.

Becky asks if Lacey is here to play on the heartstrings.

Lacey says her life deserves a movie.  She is not just a lady, she is a United States Marine.  She can do boot camp in the morning and run a cotillion at night.  That is what the women's division deserves.

Becky asks why does Lacey do what she does based on her past.  Becky says Lacey is nothing but a piling heap of trash.

Lacey says this is what the WWE needs.  They need a classy lady to set the standard as champion, not a nasty like you.  You are beatable.  Lacey reminds Becky that she already helped her lose a title.

Lacey takes her time entering the ring and Becky gives Lacey and Exploder.

Smackdown Tag Team Champions Daniel Bryan and Erick Rowan make their way to the stage.

Daniel Bryan says he knows why the McMahons had to bring him as a wild card because it sucks. Daniel says he is talking about Raw and Los Angeles. We all know that L.A. is the smog capital of America but it is also filled with ignorant and impotent people. They are here to lift you out of the smog and educate you. They are here to excite you. Tonight, he will excite you by destroying the Universal Champion Seth Rollins.

He will prove that one half of the Planet’s Tag Team Champions is better than all of Raw and prove to all of the Raw tag teams that they are the best. Impotent masses of Los Angeles . . . prepare to be excited.
