Rhea Ripley Kickoff Raw!
Live in the arena, Rhea Ripley’s music hits and out she comes to a loud pop from the crowd.
The fans chant “Mami” and Rhea smiles and says she has had a lot of time to think about what happened at SummerSlam. She says she has relived it in her head every day since it happened and she felt every single emotion you can feel in this kind of a situation. Embarrassed, heart break but right now she feels pissed the hell off.
Rhea looks at the camera and she tells Dominik that he stabbed her in the back and maybe he has heard it before but it just wasn’t deep enough. And Liv Morgan managed to run away with her Championship but she can’t run forever. She says she is Rhea Ripley and it is time she reminds Liv and Dominik who she is.
As she is talking, we hear Liv’s voice and she is standing in between the crowd with Dominik. Liv tells Rhea that Dominik has something he wants to get off his chest. The fans boo as he begins to speak.
Dominik asks Rhea if she knows why he left her for Liv. The fans boo very loudly and Rhea says she kind of wants to hear what he has to say because she likes to hear excuses. Dominik continues to speak and the fans boo. He says he is a man and he deserves to be treated like one. The fans with a loud “You suck” chant. He says Rhea tried to change him and he says it was embarrassing for Rhea to be bossing him around. A grown man calling her Mami and now he has a girl who calls him daddy.
He says she gives him chicken tenders when he wants, she lets him play video games when he wants. She lets him be him. And she did something Rhea could never do. She finally helped him beat his dead beat dad.
Rhea says she will say something he probably hasn’t heard in a long time. She is proud of him. She is proud of everything that he has accomplished in the last couple of years. Watching him grow into the man he is today is one of her biggest accomplishments. He finally did something for himself and he won gold. But the one thing is that when it comes to his dad, she just wanted him to beat him on his own because she didn’t want any excuses that he was better than Rey. But now since he wants to make his own decisions like a man, she should be proud of him for that too. The thing is that it’s the last decision he is ever going to make.
Liv begins to talk and the fans boo. She tells Rhea there is only one thing Rhea said that was true and that is that Dominik is a man and he is all hers. Liv says Rhea has nothing. No family, her real family is a million miles away and the family she thought she found in The Judgment Day, she took them. She says Dominik is hers. The Women’s World Championship, is hers. She tells Rhea that the Women’s division is hers. Everything Rhea loved is hers.
Rhea laughs and asks her if she is done because she would love for her to shut the hell up. She says Liv has taken a lot from her. A lot of her weak links. But the one thing she did wrong was that she left her standing because she is going to come for her and she is going to have to kill her to stop her. And it’s flattering that she likes the sound of her own voice, because it allows them to find out where they are.
Damian Priest steps in behind Dominik and Liv. Priest grabs Dominik and he throws him into the wall and they fight into the concession stands. Liv jumps onto Damian’s back and in comes Rhea but Liv runs away. Priest with right hands onto Dominik and they start fighting down the stairs towards the ring.
They fight into the ring and a right hand by Dominik but Priest grabs him. Carlito hits him from behind and Dominik escapes. Priest hits Carlito with a big boot and a clothesline to the outside.

Finn and Dominik with kicks onto Priest. Out comes Rhea Ripley. Carlito runs to the outside but Rhea with a right hand. Balor is stuck between Priest and Rhea in the middle of the ring.

Priest and Rhea hug in the ring and Dominik jumps off the top rope but Priest catches him. He throws Dominik onto Rhea and she goes for the Rip Tide but Liv pulls Dominik down to the outside. The Judgment Day head to the back with Priest and Rhea standing in the ring.

Rhea Ripley says Liv Morgan wants to burn and break things that don’t belong to her. Morgan wants to be the victim in her Revenge Tour fantasy, but that’s all it is: a fantasy. This Saturday at SummerSlam, the Revenge Tour comes to an end. There is no more running, hiding, or manipulating. If Morgan thought Ripley was brutal last time after she attacked her shoulder, that was after being warned to stay out of her business. Morgan not only took three months of her career by injuring her shoulder, but she also took her championship and her family, her Latino Heat. Morgan wants Ripley to be the demon in her fantasy dream, but at SummerSlam, Ripley will get her revenge.

They’ve had a good week reconnecting, but he doesn’t understand why she seemed to flirt with Jey Uso on social media.

Rhea Ripley calls out Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan
“THIS IS MY BRUTALITY!”
Rhea Ripley shoves “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio down the ramp and into the ring. She is not happy that he met up with Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan earlier tonight. Ripley will battle Morgan for the title at SummerSlam. Ripley gets on the microphone and shouts, “Liv, if you want him, come get him!”
Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan’s music hits, but she doesn’t come out. Morgan is in the crowd. She says, “Hi, Rhea! Hi, Daddy Dom!” Morgan says she’s not going to come to the ring. Unlike Ripley, she has self-control. Morgan waited for her all this time so she could wait until SummerSlam. The reason Morgan came out is obvious: she has feelings for Dominik. Morgan says Dominik has feelings for her, too. In the ring, Mysterio acts like that’s not true. Morgan says gorgeous men like Dominik don’t go for girls like Ripley. Gorgeous men like him go for girls that look like Liv Morgan.
Mysterio tries to hold Ripley back. Mysterio pulls her into the ring, and Ripley shouts at him. Mysterio tells her to let him take care of this. Morgan asks the crowd to let her hear what “Daddy Dominik” has to say. Morgan says she knows what he’s going to say. She feels the exact same way. Morgan tells Mysterio to say those three little words. Mysterio asks if she wants those three little words. Mysterio says, “I hate you, Liv. Are you stupid? Are you deaf?” Mysterio says she has ruined his life over and over again. Mysterio shouts in Spanish. Ripley stands behind him, smiling. Morgan starts to cry and turns around before leaving.
In the ring, a very pleased Rhea Ripley whispers in Mysterio’s ear before licking his cheek and giving him a big kiss on his cheek. Mysterio is elated and holds the ropes open for her. Mysterio walks off arm in arm with Ripley.
Video: The story of the Liv Morgan Revenge Tour. Last year, Rhea Ripley viciously took out Liv Morgan by breaking her arm with a steel chair. On the Raw after WrestleMania, Morgan returned and injured Ripley, causing her to vacate the Women’s World Championship. Morgan would vow to take everything from Ripley. Over the next few months, she won the Women’s World Championship and focused her attention on trying to steal “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio for herself. Last week on Raw, Ripley would return moments before it looked like Mysterio would kiss Morgan in the middle of the ring.
RAW KICKS OFF WITH THE RETURN OF MAMI!
Backstage Segment
Rhea Ripley steps off an elevator and starts walking. She makes her way down the tunnel, travels through Gorilla Position, and heads to the entrance stage.
“THIS IS MY BRUTALITY!”
Rhea Ripley walks out to a massive ovation from the crowd in the Nutter Center. Ripley gets in the ring, and a loud “MAMI” chant picks up. Ripley says, “Monday Night Raw… Mami’s home!” The crowd loudly cheers her, and another “MAMI” chant picks up. It’s been a few months since she’s been in the ring, and that’s because of one person… Liv Morgan. The crowd loudly boos Morgan’s name. Ripley has seen Morgan running around with something of hers. It’s not Dominik Mysterio. She’ll handle him later. Morgan is walking around with something she never lost: the Women’s World Championship. Morgan thinks she took Ripley out, but all she really did was piss her off. She wants Morgan to come out here so Ripley can rip her apart.
“Dirty” Dominik Mysterio comes out instead to massive boos. Mysterio is carrying a black rose and wearing a cow skin vest. Mysterio begins to speak, but the crowd boos him down. Ripley impatiently waits for Mysterio to speak and crosses her arms in anger toward him. Mysterio gets in the ring and says, “Mamacita…” The crowd continues to boo him. Ripley turns her back on him. Mysterio cautiously approaches her.
“Rhea… oh, Rhea!”
Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan appears on the Titantron. Morgan apologizes for her voice. She had a long weekend in Mexico and has always been a screamer. She says, “Hi, Daddy Dom.” Morgan disingenuously asks how Ripley’s shoulder is. Morgan’s shoulder is fine because of the title. Morgan says Ripley knows for sure that she meant it when she said she wanted to take everything from her, even Mysterio. At first, she didn’t see what Ripley saw in Mysterio. She was confused and just wanted to hurt Ripley, but then she got to spend time with Mysterio, looked into his eyes, and kissed him. It all became very real to her, more real than what Ripley and Mysterio had. Since Ripley has been gone, she has Mysterio all to herself. While Mami might finally be home, Liv is finally on top.
Ripley sneers at Mysterio in the ring. Mysterio cautiously says, “Mami… it’s not what it looks like.” Ripley says she knew Morgan would be too scared to come out and face her. Morgan knows when she gets in Ripley’s ring, the Revenge Tour ends. Ripley waited three months for this. She thinks her patience can handle it a little longer. That’s why she’s setting out this challenge. Ripley says, “SummerSlam… Rhea Ripley vs. Liv Morgan for MY Women’s World Championship!” Morgan says, “Rhea, I always knew that the endgame would be Rhea Ripley vs. Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship.” Morgan says she’s not going to run. Morgan warns Ripley that she’s not the same person Ripley knew. Just like she helped Dominik beat his deadbeat dad, which Ripley couldn’t do, she’ll finally beat Ripley. Morgan accepts. Morgan says, “Oh, and Daddy Dom, I hope to see you there, too!” Morgan blows a kiss, and the video fades.
Ripley continues to sneer at Mysterio in the ring and paces around. Ripley knows Morgan is still listening and wants to say something loud and clear. Ripley says, “At SummerSlam, I not only end your Revenge Tour, I not only end your title reign, I’m going to end your career.” Ripley drops the microphone and mouths Morgan’s catchphrase, “Watch me.” Ripley blows a kiss and poses in the center of the ring. Mysterio holds the ropes open for Ripley, but she angrily looks at him. Ripley walks off, and Mysterio chases after her. Ripley mostly ignores him.
Backstage Segment

She asks, “What the hell is all this?” Mysterio says he’s trying to make it up to her. Ripley slams the door in his face. Mysterio turns and sees World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest standing there smirking. Priest asks if everything is ok. Ripley opens the door, throws the black roses into Mysterio’s face, and shoves a dog statue into his chest before slamming the door again. Priest is amused. Mysterio says it’s a little complicated.

Carlito comes up and plays Captain Obvious by saying, “She’s angry, huh?”
The Judgment Day Clubhouse
World Tag Team Champions Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh are talking with Rhea Ripley. Bálor wants to address the elephant in the room and acknowledges that Liv Morgan helped them win their titles.

“Dirty” Dominik Mysterio walks up and says Jey Uso was talking out of line about her, so he got a match to teach him a lesson. She asks if he’s stupid and wants to know why he would pick a fight with Jey Uso. Mysterio says he’ll cancel the match. Ripley asks if he’s a coward. Mysterio says he wants to show that she’s still his Mami and she belongs to him. Ripley is stunned that Mysterio thinks she belongs to him and angrily walks off. Carlito comes up to Mysterio and says, “Dude… not cool.”

Raw General Manager Adam Pearce is also in the ring. Ripley says, “So, obviously, you guys know what’s going on right now, yeah?” Ripley looks like she’s holding back tears. After the attack last week by Liv Morgan, she’s been told that she’s stuck on the bench for quite a few months. Ripley says she’s pissed off because she’s been told she needs to vacate the one thing that means the most to her: the Women’s World Championship. The crowd chants, “NO!” Ripley looks at the title. The crowd chants, “Bulls–t,” and Ripley says, “Yeah, it is.” Ripley says the title means the most to her in her entire life. That’s why this is so painful. Ripley lays the Women’s World Championship down on the mat and pulls at her hair. A “Thank you, Mami” chant picks up.
Ripley says, “Revenge Tour… this is all because of your stupid Revenge Tour, Liv.” She could’ve actually had respect for Morgan, but instead, Morgan blindsided her.

The crowd chants, “Yes, he is.” Miz says since they’re introducing new champions, he wants to introduce to Judgment Day and Philadelphia the new Raw Tag Team Champions Awesome Truth.
Bálor says it’s funny that Awesome Truth will have the shortest Tag Title reigns. Since they spoiled their celebration, they can put their Raw Tag Team Titles on the line right here and now. R-Truth says they can’t because there are only three of them. Bálor is confused. The Miz asks if R-Truth is talking about a real person and not Little Jimmy. R-Truth says they can have a 6-man Tag Team Match against him, The Miz, and the guy you can’t see. The crowd roars. McDonagh wants to get this right. The two of them and an invisible man against the Judgment Day… McDonagh agrees to the match.
