Here is what happened on the show tonight:

The show begins with a recap of the return of Bayley, Iyo Sky and Dakota Kai and their attack on Becky Lynch last week. Byron Saxton, Corey Graves and Jimmy Smith greet audiences at home from Cleveland, Ohio as they run down the card for the show.

Dakota Kai, Iyo Sky and Bayley come to the ring. Bayley says 'ding dong' and asks fans why they aren't happy to see her (since they're happy to see them). She says that the fans need them. She says they are there to shake up the women's division and says that fans couldn't have possibly enjoyed watching Becky Lynch dress up weekly and seeing Bianca Belair as "Raw" Women's Champion. They said that's why they had to make a statement and to light a fire under the women's division. She asks why she was the one who saw potential in Kai and Sky and asks how she was the only one to see it.
