- WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler is in the ring, introduced by Mike Rome. Lawler talks about Rusev and Lana, and says for the first time ever on RAW, he will preside over the signing of a divorce contract. The ring is set up for a usual contract signing. Lawler introduces Lana first and out she comes with a lawyer. Vic is joined by Samoa Joe on commentary.

Lana enters the ring and a "Rusev Day!" chant starts up. Lawler reads a distance provision from Lana's restraining order, but cautions Rusev that all other provisions of the order will be enforced to the fullest extent of the law. Lawler introduces Rusev and out he comes to a pop.

Rusev seems to be in a good mood as they take seats at the table. Lana wants him to know that she used to love him so much. When WWE fans hated him and thought he was fat, she loved him over everyone. Lana says Rusev became another statistic like famous people do, as they let it get to their heads. Lana stands up and blames the WWE fans on why their marriage failed. Rusev says she needs to calm down. Lana threatens to have him sent to jail but she's putting on a really bad performance. Rusev shows us a video on the big screen, showing how Lana and Bobby Lashley were arrested last week.

Lana goes on and starts crying on her knees. Rusev says this is getting ridiculous, let's get to the point and sign the divorce papers. Fans pop and chant "yes!" now. Rusev offers to sign first and he goes to but she snatches the paper and pen, and says she will do it first. Lana runs Rusev down and calls him a loser who never comes in first. She says she will get their dog. Rusev disagrees because it was a gift on his birthday, from Lana. They argue over who gets the dog and Lawler has to calm them down. Lana signs the divorce papers. Rusev toys with her and doesn't sign. He needs one more thing from her. She goes on ranting about how he probably wants sex, and how he's sick just like the fans. Rusev says no, what he really wants is a match with her hot boyfriend, Lashley. Rusev goes to speak again but the music hits and out comes Lashley to the ring.

Lashley says this is ridiculous. He's tired of Rusev trying to make jokes of he and his Lana. Lashley says after this ridiculous divorce is over, he's going to ask Lana to marry him. Rusev says she is all Lashley's, he doesn't care because Lana is just... bad. Rusev taunts some more and Lashley goes to fight but Lana gets in between them.
