By Richard Trionfo on 2024-07-05 21:58:00

Your announcers are Corey Graves and Wade Barrett.

We see Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, and Cody Rhodes walking in the back.

Raw's Jey Uso makes his way to the ring.

Jey say he is in your city.  Jey says Money in the Bank is tomorrow night.  He wants the people to Yeet if they think he will win tomorrow.

Before we can get more yeeting, a Smackdown wrestler in the match, LA Knight makes his way to the ring.

Knight wants to talk at you.  He says he likes how Jey asked everyone if they wanted him to win.  Knight says Jey might be the favorite and that is crazy.  A year ago, he was the favorite going into the match.  Knight says he has all of the respect in the world because Jey was part of the goofy Bloodline and you went on your own.  Knight says he will show Jey respect tomorrow by not showing him any.  They can all get stomped out.  He says Jey has not been on a ride like this.  You hear Yeet, but the crowd will be saying YEAH.

Carmelo Hayes makes it two for Smackdown and he comes out and says he hates to be that guy because he is that guy.  He Toronto doesn't want to hear all of that.  Hayes says the last time he saw Knight, he was so far up Logan Paul that he knows the new flavor.

Tying the score at two to two, Chad Gable makes his way to the ring.

Chad says he has been living in his own personal hell for the last three weeks.  He asks for some empathy after what has happened to him.  

Andrade interrupts and Smackdown goes up three to two.

Andrade tells everyone they are talking about their dream being Money in the Bank.  He says dreams don't win matches, especially a dangerous match like Money in the Bank . . .

Since there are six men in the match, the final man, Drew McIntyre makes his way to the ring.

Drew says he expected better from Canada since they are part of the Commonwealth.  He says Punk isn't here but his family is here.  Drew says the violence he inflicted on Punk is what will happen to them if they get in his way tomorrow.  Drew wants to talk about his competition.  He mentions El Idiot.  Drew tells Chad he feels bad for him.  Drew tells Melo he has a bright future but you are not HIM.  You are looking up at HIM.  Drew tells Knight he will have to say NO tomorrow.  Drew asks how the hell did Jey get across the border.

Andrade attacks Drew from behind and kicks him to the floor.  Jey punches Hayes and Chad with a German suplex to Knight.  Andrade kicks Chad and Jey sends Andrade to the floor.  Drew with a back elbow to Jey.  Drew gets Jey up but Jey escapes and Knight and Jey pinball Drew and then send him over the top rope to the floor.

Jackie Redmond is in the back with Bayley.  She asks Bayley what does it take to win Money in the Bank and then cash in.  Bayley says it is one of the most brutal matches, but it is one of the most rewarding.  She says you have to stay focused.

Chelsea Green says Bayley's advice is as irrelevant as her.  Green says that Bayley wouldn't be champion if she wasn't banned from ringside against Piper.

Bayley tells Green to come back when she wins a match.

Piper attacks Bayley and Green says the next time Piper drops Bayley, Green will be there with the contract and she will be the next champion.

Bayley comes out of Nick Aldis' office.  Bayley tells Naomi she faces Piper tonight.  Naomi says she has Bayley's back tonight.
