- We go right to the ring and out comes new NXT Champion Bron Breakker as Alicia Taylor does the introduction. Fans bark for Breakker as the music stops.

Breakker says what a weekend he had. His first WrestleMania Weekend had a lot of ups & downs. Some fans chant "we want Ziggler!" and other chant "no we don't!" in response. Bron talks about inducting The Steiner Brothers into the WWE Hall of Fame, then he had the biggest match in his life at Stand & Deliver. Bron says he failed and he won't make excuses, but later that night he got the chance to go to WrestleMania 38 for the first time and watch great Superstars like RAW Women's Champion Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Kevin Owens and WWE Hall of Famer Steve Austin, and it got him thinking. Two things. One – he's going to headline WrestleMania one day, and two – he wasn't leaving Dallas without our NXT Title.

So, he picked himself up, dusted off and showed up to the biggest RAW of the year, challenged Dolph Ziggler and beat his ass in the center of the ring, and brought the NXT Title back where it belongs. Fans pop and bark but the music interrupts and out comes Imperium – Gunther, Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner.

Gunther says that was a nice little story Bron told and it sounds like Bron had a great weekend, but nobody cares about that, and all Gunther cares about in the ring is the title and what it stands for – being the best in NXT. Gunther says the issue is – Bron cannot call himself the best until he steps in the ring with The Ring General, Gunther.

Bron says he's had a hell of a weekend but if Gunther wants it, he's got it, right here, tonight. Fans pop as Bron and Gunther face off with Bron raising the NXT Title in his face. The music hits and in the background we see The Diamond Mine coming out – The Creed Brothers with Malcolm Bivens as we go to commercial.

Grimes says Uce, you're on. They shake hands and Solo brings him in closer for a staredown. Grimes smiles and says that's what he likes to see. They face off to end the segment.

- We go backstage to Joe Gacy and Harland. Gacy says the world is a dark and ugly place sometimes but the one beacon of light is family.
