Orton announces he’s back for as long as he can be. The crowd goes nuts. Orton welcomes everyone to Monday Night Raw. Orton spent his time away thinking about all of his accomplishments, and the one thing he has never done is compete in WarGames. When his friend Cody Rhodes called him, he had to say yes. Orton also came back because he had some unfinished business to attend to… The Bloodline.
Maybe he can forgive, but he can’t forget. Orton has a bag full of receipts for every member of The Bloodline, and he does mean every member. Those receipts will come in the form of the three most dangerous letters in WWE: RKO. Rhea Ripley interrupts. Ripley mockingly welcomes Orton back.

Ripley notes all of the gold The Judgement holds and blames Orton for ruining Damian Priest’s cash in for the World title.
Ripley promises to put Orton out permanently. The crowd chants RKO. Orton tells Ripley he’s been watching, and every week on Raw, it’s Mami this and Mami that. Orton tells Ripley that Daddy’s home. The crowd goes nuts. Orton notes that no matter what changes, this won’t: no one tells Orton what to do. Ripley exclaims that Orton has made his bed and made an enemy out of The Judgement Day. JD McDonagh (in a neck brace) and Dominik Mysterio attack Orton from behind. Orton RKOs McDonagh. Dominik runs away with Ripley. Orton tells Dominik not to go far because he’s going to Adam Pearce to get a match made between them tonight.

In-Ring Segment: CM Punk
Punk says it looks like hell froze over. He’s standing in a WWE ring on Monday Night Raw. Punk says he has been searching for the words to describe how he feels. This isn’t going to sound like him, and it’s corny, but it’s the truth: he’s home. This is where he belongs. After ten years, the WWE Universe never forgot him. The people never stopped chanting his name. Punk is a changed man. Punk says he’s back because he loves the WWE Universe. He wishes he could say he never had to leave but once upon a time, a wise man once told him he would have to go and come back.
Punk hates to say it, but he was right. It’s been all love backstage; everyone has welcomed him back with open arms. Well, almost everyone. Some are afraid because they don’t understand. Everyone here wants to be the best in the world, but he hasn’t been here in 10 years. The best in the world is standing in the ring and his name is CM Punk. Punk’s music plays. Punk leans into the camera and says he’s back and he’s not here to make friends. He’s here to make money. Then, the show fades to black.
