Your announcers are Michael Cole and Wade Barrett.

Randy Orton makes his way to the ring.

Randy says it sounds like a few of you missed him.  He says he is back for as long as he can stay here.  Randy welcomes everyone to Raw.  He says he was gone a while.  He says while he was gone, it gave him plenty of time to think about his accomplishments and accolades.  He says there is one thing he has never done.  That is compete in War Games.  When his friend Cody Rhodes picked up the phone and gave him a call, of course he was in.  There was another reason he wanted to be in War Games is because that match wsa created by Dusty Rhodes.  To be in that match is to be part of history.  It is about making moments.   Randy says he wants to make moments.  Randy says he has some unfinished business with the Bloodline.  

Randy says he made his career out of putting people on the shelf.  He can forgive but he can't forget.  He has a bag full of receipts for every member of the Bloodline.  That means everyone. You know what those receipts are going to come in and they are the three most dangerous letters in all of Sports Entertainment .. . R K O.

Rhea Ripley's music plays and she makes her way to the ring.

Rhea welcomes Randy back.  She says that was quite a performance at Survivor Series.  She says she didn't see him as someone who does favors or teams with people he has issues with, or having a big return after eighteen months upstaged.  It would be a shame to have this all wasted, but the landscape has changed.  The Bloodline has fallen and THE Judgment Day has risen as the top faction in WWE.  When it comes to War Games, that was just a bump in the road.  The reality is that they are dripping in gold  She wiped the floor with Zoey Stark.  Dom is the NXT North American Champion.  Finn and Damian hold those tag titles that you lost nearly everything to try to get.  If not for you, Damian Priest would be World Champion.

You have come in here and made these enemies.  Enemies who could make your life a living nightmare.  You need to stop focusing on the Bloodline because they don't get the job done.

Randy says that he was watching and he saw Rhea and heard Mami this and Mami that.  Randy tells Rhea that Daddy's back.

Randy says that Rhea said a lot of things have changed and that is true.  The one thing that hasn't changed and never will change is that nobody tells Randy Orton what to do.

Rhea manically laughs.  She says she tried to warn Randy and give him an out.  You have made THE Judgment Day your enemies now.

JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio attack Randy from behind.  Randy fights out of the corner and he sends JD shoulder first into the ring post.  Randy sets for an IEDDT on Dom but JD hits him from behind.  Randy with an RKO to JD.
