🔥 Opening Segment: Jey Uso Proclaims Dominance
The show kicked off with World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso, flanked by Solo Sikoa and the ever-menacing Paul Heyman. Fresh off a controversial title defense at Night of Champions, Jey walked to the ring draped in gold and oozing confidence. He boasted about how “The Bloodline 2.0” now runs Raw and dared anyone from the back to step up.
“I’m not Roman. I’m not the little brother. I’m the HEAD now,” Jey shouted, raising the title as the crowd booed.
But just as he was about to leave the ring—BOOM 💥—the arena went pitch black.

😱 The Return of Batista – “The Animal” Is Back!
The lights flickered. A familiar theme blasted through the arena: “I Walk Alone” by Saliva.
Batista made his epic return to WWE after nearly five years, stepping out onto the stage wearing a black leather jacket and dark shades, with the same intensity in his eyes that once made him a six-time World Champion.
Boston exploded in cheers as Batista slowly marched to the ring, staring a hole through Jey Uso. For a full minute, the two men didn’t speak. The crowd chanted “Holy sh*t!” as Jey smirked, raising his title again, only to be met with a spine-tingling staredown.
With a mic in hand, Batista said just one thing:
“You think you run Raw, Jey? You’re just keeping my seat warm.”
Jey, flustered but cocky, raised an eyebrow and responded:
“Old dogs don’t hunt in my yard.”
The tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Paul Heyman frantically whispered to Jey, trying to calm him down, but the confrontation had already lit a fire in the WWE Universe. Batista pointed to the title, then to himself, before walking out without another word—leaving Jey visibly shaken.
