“Then… Now… Forever.”
Mauro Ranallo welcomes us to the WWE Performance Center, but we are quickly taken to footage taken earlier in the day from the parking lot. Cameron Grimes is seen running from a parked car with the door open, “Man, you better get over there!” he screams as he runs away. We see Damien Priest clutching onto his lower back in pain as WWE officials tend to him.
In the Performance Center, Cameron Grimes makes his way to the ring with microphone in hand. “Are you kidding me! Damien Priest is going to no-show the biggest match of his career?! He’s first going to slash his own tires, then next thing he’s going to act like he’s beaten up in the parking lot!” Grimes gloats how he beat Finn Balor with a broken jaw and that he should win by forfeit.
From the back of the arena, Damien Priest hobbles his way to the ring at the behest of a group of WWE officials. He enters the ring and Grimes begins to attack his injured ribs and back. The referee ushers Grimes away and asks Priest if he can still go. Priest gets to his feet and the bell rings…

Grimes gloats on the ramp as we go to video footage from earlier today as we see Rhea Ripley entering the Performance Center. Robert Stone approaches her and offers her a second offer at joining the Robert Stone Brand after Aliyah aligned herself. Ripley slugs him in the stomach and tosses him into a dumpster. Aliyah runs in, scolds Ripley and slaps her in the face. “You just bought a ticket to my ring,” Ripley tells Aliyah, who visibly regrets what she just did.
