Monday Night Raw: 8 pm EST

Show opens up and Vince McMahon, Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan and WWE Champion Kofi Kingston come out to the ring. In response to why Reigns, a Smackdown star, is on Raw, Reigns indicates that he goes wherever he wants. Kofi says he didn’t want Reigns to have all the fun so he decided to come to Raw as well. Bryan just wants another title shot against Kofi, who he says is an undeserving champion. Vince’s solution to this cross brand jumping is a “wild card” rule. Drew McIntyre comes out and is upset about Smackdown coming in there and trying to take over Raw.

Vince has an idea. Two WrestleMania rematches. Reigns vs. McIntyre and Bryan vs. Kofi for the WWE Championship. But then AJ Styles comes out.

Styles points out how weird it is that Vince has Smackdown stars here on Raw, when he just got to Raw after being on Smackdown for so long. Styles says if there is going to be a wild card rule maybe he’ll go over to Smackdown tomorrow. Universal Champion Seth Rollins comes out and starts talking trash at Styles. The two go back and forth. Styles says he tried to shake Rollins’ hand last week and he threw it back in his face. Styles didn’t like how Rollins treated him like he wasn’t a man. But he’s a man that can kick Rollins’ ass, Styles says.

Rollins and Styles want to throw down tonight but Vince has a different idea. He wants the two of them to team up together tonight in tag team action. Rollins and Styles are livid over it but Vince doesn’t care. It’s going to be a great night, he says.
