Jey Uso gets a walking promo about his upcoming IC title match.
We get a sitdown interview with Nia Jax and Rhea Ripley who are not in the same room. Cole asks Rhea if she has butterflies.
She says she’s worked for this, she wanted this. The last time she competed in Australia, she was on the indies, and that was seven years ago. She wasn’t yet comfortable in her own skin. She nearly wanted to quit. She had to sit down and remind herself exactly who the hell she was. She isn’t like everyone, she proved her doubters wrong, she reminded herself that she is Rhea Bloody Ripley.
Nia calls this cute, says Nia is twice her size, and has triple Rhea’s talent. She is happy this is happening in Rhea’s homeland, because she’ll be closer to home to cry.
Rhea tells her to talk all she wants, attack from behind all she wants, but in Perth, face to face with Rhea, and everyone is screaming for Mami, Nia will crumble. All her momentum will fade away into nothing. She is just not good enough.
Rhea removes her mic and leaves as Nia scowls at the screen.
A Dateline like segment airs called, “Truthline,” where Truth is interviewed by Jackie in the rain outside of the Honda Center.

Sami Zayn is backstage, says he gets fixated on things, and he doesn’t want to do that with Drew. He cant do it. It’s Mania season. He knows there is a path. He doesn’t know what, but it will present itself. He WILL be a champion.
Becky Lynch is in the ring to tell the crowd they’ve been amazing. She’s gotten to do some amazing things, there isn’t a lot of new things for her anymore. Except the hat she has on. That’s new. Do we like the hat? The hat stays. In five days, for the first time in her career, she will step foot inside the Elimination Chamber. Rhea and her have been dancing around each other having uncomfortably long staredowns, all prolonging the inevitable. Mami and The Man will collide. When they do, itwill be the fight of their lives. They both live for this. They love this, but how they’ve been living has ben different. Rhea has been front and center for the last year. She has been propped up by her band of merry men and then there is her. Becky is the biggest threat to her title, hiding in plain sight, fighting any and everyone who wants their go. She can confidently say that at this moment, she’s the best she’s ever been. On the flip side, so has everybody else. So in 5 days, she’ll be in the EC with five of the most promising stars. She has beaten most of them, but never inside the confines of a cage built with steel and glass. She has worked too hard —-
Liv Morgan is out to interrupt, say she just wanted to say that she’s a big fan of the hat. What she is not a big fan of is having to sit in the back and listen to Becky claim her shot at Mania. She wants to prove that she’s the best? How very Becky of her. Liv doesn’t care who the best is. This is about her revenge, her redemption, her life. She’s got a little story: Rhea and her were great, Rhea turned on her, and she found success with Raquel, until Rhea came out, interfered, and cost them the titles. One week later, Rhea came out and cost Liv 6 months of her career while she was at her best. So while she has Becky face to face, she wants to remind her that she was the last person to defeat Rhea. IF after hearing all of this..
Raquel Rodriguez comes out and says they both make great points, but their focusing on Rhea. After Chamber, it could be Nia Jax. One thing for sure, there is only one woman big and strong enough to take on either one, and that’s her.
Here comes Naomi to Glow this up. She didn’t come back just to come back, she came back with a whole new purpose. She has made a name for herself in and out the ring, so its way bigger than that for her. She belongs at the top, and she knows that now more than ever.
Here comes Tiffany Stratton to tell us it’s Tiffy Time. While Naomi was out trying to make another name for herself, she left an empty space, and the only space she is concerned about is being the center of this universe. Besides, nobody cares about the past. Looking at all of them, that’s all she sees. Been there, done that, the future is her.
BIANCA BELAIR! is out looking all kinds of fine. She tells Tiff she is unaware of what running her mouth might get her. She has been at the top for a long time. At EC, they’ll finmd out that Tiffany will never be like her or better than her. There is one thing she has done that none of them have done, and that’s win the chamber match. This year, at Mania, she will continue her streak. Respectfully, if she has to, she’ll pin all of them to get to Mania.
Tiffany tells Bianca that she is so last year. No, like literally, she ;eaked last year.
Bianca: “Girl…uh uh.” Haha
Liv tries to get in on this but Tiffany cheap shots her, then they go at it. Becky and Bianca tangle it up. Raquel and Naomi fight in the corner. Here comes Nia Jax to smash everyone. Tiffany and Liv are fighting outside and Nia comes to attack them. She shoots Liv into the post back first then tosses Tiffany into the apron. Nia hops back up on the apron and enters the ring to pounce Bianca. Leg drop to Raquel. Becky is standing behind her, rushes her, but Nia drops her with ease then hits a hip attack in the corner and another leg drop, this time to Liv. A final leg drop to Becky.
Gunther cuts a promo backstage. He says tonight is the single biggest night in Jey’s career. He reintroduces himself. Tonight, when the bell rings, he’ll make Jey understand that he doesn’t belong in the main event.
Shinsuke Nakamura has some choice words for Sami. If he wants to be a contender, and wants a spotlight, he’ll give Sami one. If he thinks e’s an underdog, Shinsuke will make sure he stays that way.

Drew McIntyre is asked if his win over Cody was tainted due to Bloodline’s interference. He says no. He wanted to attack Jimmy and Solo on sight, but he thinks big picture. He’s doing this for the title, for RAW, for the fans. He defeated Cody, he’ll defeat LA, then win Elimination Chamber and go to Mania. He is the true workhorse of WWE.
