This week’s Raw opens with a video hyping up the match between Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch later tonight.

Bianca Beliar is backstage for an interview. She tells Sarah that she wasn’t ready for Becky at SummerSlam. And when Becky challenged her, she accepted. But 26 seconds later, she is standing with no championship but she will never regret her mistakes because those are opportunities to make her stronger. She says Becky doesn’t see the threat of getting in the ring with her. Bianca is used to people trying to bring her down during the sidelines but she has always showed out to every match. She says there is no match bigger than a match for the Raw Women’s Championship.

She says people don’t realize how difficult it is to be her and she notices that people are not appreciating her. And that will motive her to beat Bianca tonight. The RAW Women’s Champion then makes her entrance.

He says everyone makes claims about being the face of WWE, from Big E to Bianca Belair, but there’s only one man who shows up every single week and works his ass off no matter what position he’s in: KO.
