Drew McIntyre was out first and called out Damian Priest, who made his entrance with JD McDonagh and Finn Balor at his side. Drew said that the only reason Priest became the champ was because of his team, The Judgment Day.
Priest replied that Drew will face Finn Balor tonight. If he wins, Judgment Day will be banned from ringside at Clash at the Castle. If Drew loses, however, Judgment Day will be there to secure Priest's win.
Drew agreed to the terms and left the ring before RAW moved on.
Backstage on RAW, Liv Morgan was with Dominik Mysterio and said that she wanted to see him later tonight. Dom tried to protest, but Morgan gave him her hotel key before walking off.

Lyra Valkyria unloaded on IYO SKY in the corner right off the bat before SKY came back with some big strikes and grounded Lyra on the mat. IYO slapped Lyra in the face before the latter locked in an inverted Boston Crab into an innovative abdominal stretch. The match headed outside, and SKY got a springboard moonsault, taking Valkyria down.
Dakota Kai broke up a pin from ringside before Lyra took her and Kairi Sane out with a dropkick through the ropes. IYO used the distraction to send Lyra into the corner and hit the double knees in the corner.
Lyra got her knees up for the following moonsault before IYO countered the Nightwing and picked up the win with a crucifix pin.

Backstage, JD McDonagh, Finn Balor, and Carlito entered the Judgment Day clubhouse before Dominik Mysterio told them about the incident earlier with Liv Morgan and showed them the hotel key.
Sami Zayn was backstage with Otis, Maxxine Dupri, and Akira Tozawa before apologizing for last week. Otis apologized for his attack last week before talking about losing everything: his Money in the Bank briefcase, his peach, referring to former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose, and Tucker, his former tag partner.
Sami told him that he and the others didn't need Gable and The Alpha Academy members could stand on their own without having to comply with their leader's demands.
Back in The Judgment Day clubhouse, Liv's hotel key somehow went missing, and if I were to guess, I'd say Carlito swiped it.

JD McDonagh fled the ring right away and Carlito stepped into the ring before being manhandled by Braun Strowman. Dragon Lee tagged in and JD got some strikes in before Dominik took Dragon down with a cheap shot from the ropes.
Rey came in and took Dominik out with a senton and a Rana before Dom and JD used Rey's body to clothesline Dragon Lee on the outside in an innovative maneuver.
Liv Morgan showed up and was arguing with Dom from the apron before Zelina Vega pushed her off, and the women's world champ fell on top of Dom. The two were having a moment before Zelina dragged Liv away and started a brawl as Braun ran in and steamrolled through all of Judgment Day.
Back in the ring, Carlito took a big powerslam from the Monster before Lee came in and got the win with a frog splash.

IYO SKY was freaking out backstage and Dakota tried to console her but the former Women's Champ screamed like a maniac and ran off, saying that "Damage CTRL needs to change".
Sami Zayn was out next and thanked the fans for their support before Chad Gable and The Alpha Academy came out to interrupt him. Gable said that his team would be happy to relieve Sami of his title, but Zayn stopped him and asked him if he really thought that his team was happy.
Gable said that they were a family and supported each other no matter what before sending Otis to face Sami in the match.
