411’s WWE RAW Talk Report: Bron Breakker and Ludwig Kaiser Face-Off, More

-We jump right to the video as GUNTHER is cutting a promo on Finn Balor ahead of their match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Judgment Day interrupt and Balor takes credit for GUNTHER winning at Survivor Series and after 8 long years, he will be a World Champion again. GUNTHER notes Finn was the Best in the World, 8 years ago, for ONE NIGHT. Judgment Day go to attack and Damian Priest is here to get him some. Balor eats a chop from GUNTHER and Priest takes a clothesline. All three men continue to brawl around ringside, and Judgment Day has the numbers, so Balor gets to stand tall.

-We now have a Triple Threat set for Saturday Night’s Main Event! Anytime there is a change like that, you wonder if GUNTHER is losing the World Title without getting pinned.

-Megan Morant welcomes us to the show and is joined by Sam Roberts.

-Next week on RAW, The War Raiders get another shot at Judgment Day’s World Tag Titles. It’s going to be a busy couple of days for Balor.

-To the video as The Final Testament and Miz did battle with The Wyatt Sicks. Scarlett gets involved which brings out Nikki Cross. Howdy with The Mandible Claw on Miz, but Paul Ellering makes his return and blinds Howdy with powder, which lets Karrion get the win. The Wyatt Sicks had to lose eventually, and I am sure this will continue.

-The Final Testament celebrates backstage and Miz congratulates them, and thinks his job is done, but Kross forces him to stay. Miz being stuck between these crazy groups is kind of fun.

-Damian Priest still to come!

-Next week on RAW: Carter vs. Stark vs. Raquel!

-To the video as Liv Morgan did battle with Dakota Kai. Weird match to book as Liv is the Champion and Dakota is building momentum in the IC Tournament. Kai takes the loss thanks to interference from PFC. Damage CTRL make the save but Liv gets in the last shot as she catches Iyo with Oblivion!

-To the video as Seth Rollins got to unload on CM Punk, but Sami is out to try talk sense into him. He tells Rollins his obsession with Punk brings the worst out in him, but it’s his business and he can handle it his way. Sami announces he gets Drew McIntyre at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Drew attacks in near the Tron and beats Sami down until officials can pull him off.

-Kayden Carter and Katana Chance are backstage and mention PFC is dirty. That brings in PFC and they trade verbal barbs.

-To the video as Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods came out without music and get PRISON DOM HEAT after what they did to Big E. Fantastic! Woods gets it the worst, but neither can say much without the crowd drowning them out. Big E chant and man, I hope he is cleared because the place is going to explode if he returns. Kofi and Woods opt to leave instead of talk and the crowd roars with approval. Great stuff!

-Cathy Kelley is backstage with Bron Breakker and before he can say anything, Ludwig Kaiser is here. Ludwig knows Bron was trying to get under his skin last week. Bron says he is not worried about GUNTHER’S watchdog and before they can come to blows, Cathy yells for help. Ludwig gets in a slap to the face as officials hold Bron back.
