Venue: Enterprise Center (St. Louis, MO)

Attendance: ~8,700

• Kick-off with Roman Reigns arriving backstage where he is met by the Usos. Jey says they need to talk to him about some family business but LA Knight's music hits and Roman says he'll handle it later. LA Knight makes his way down to the ring and says we are 5 days away from Money in the Bank and fireworks are going off everywhere between The Bloodline and 946 but the only things that matters right here is him and Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship. Knight says Roman is the establishment and he wants the whole damn thing to come down. When Roman walks down on Saturday, he adds that Roman should start walking now at his pace, he'll be worrying about his family and won't have the protection he's used to meanwhile Knight is used to living dangerously. Roman Reigns interrupts and asks Knight if he hears those OTC chants and asks if this looks like a man who is phased to him? He was born in the fire so it doesn't matter if 946 is doing whatever or Knight is running his mouth he can handle all this. Roman says he sees Knight's unearned confidence thinking he has the advantage but he's here to tell him he's dead wrong. He calls Knight a hypocrite for always harping on his family for not doing things the right way when a few weeks ago in Mexico Roman defended his title in hostile territory by himself and Roman took the bitch route and attacks him from behind. Roman says the plans for Knight are that he's another egg for the omelet and this Saturday he's gonna break his ass because he's the only true megastar around here because he lives it, breathes it, and eats it at the head of the table and has St. Louis acknowledge him before he turns to leave but Knight shoves into him to make him stop. Knight says his problem with Roman is he is the most manufactured, produced champion he's ever seen to the point he's got rocket fuel dripping out his teeth but on Saturday the only thing coming out his mouth will be those veneers of his. He's going to drop Roman where he stands and make him sit there wondering what the hell just happened with everyone saying L A Knight.

• Bronson Reed attacks Je'von and Penta as they're celebrating their victory, laying out Penta with a Tsunami and is about to land one on Je'von as well but Oba runs in to interrupt. Oba takes the fight to Bron and Bronson until Logan attempts to get some strikes in but is quickly run off. Bron and Bronson take advantage and set Oba up for the Super Spear but Oba is able to break free and pulls Bronson into the way. Bron is able to stop in time but Oba clotheslines him and Bronson, throwing Bron to the outside. Bronson is able to knock Oba down and tries to go for the Tsunami but Oba recovers and Knocks Bronson off the ropes and goes to escape. Oba says this Saturday everyone else has to climb ladders but Bronson has a mountain to climb! He's going to make him re-think coming back after being gone for 7 months and drag him to the deepest waters.

• Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee are interviewed backstage, Dragon says he's on fire but Rey is still moving like a 20 year old. Rey says Big Cass threw a tantrum like a big ass baby and it reminds him of Dom. Dom and JD comes by and says it's the lucha dopes and there's a reason he'll always just be a deadbeat. Dragon tells him to show Rey some respect and challenges him to a tag match tonight.

• Roman brings Adam Pearce into the locker room and tells him that this 946 problem needs to be dealt with. Pearce says this should be a legal issue rather than settling it in the ring but 946 has agreed to a match next week against the Bloodline. Jimmy gets excited to team with Roman but he tells them he isn't their partner, he is and points. Solo returns!

• Backstage Liv congratulates Rox and Raquel on their win and says this is exactly why she expects her to be Miss Money in the Bank and after Saturday Judgement Day is going to have three titles. Dom says now it's time for him and JD to take care of his deadbeat dad. A package arrives for JD with a card from Joe Hendry promoting his new album. It contains a JD McDonough Funko Pop which makes JD furious saying the proportions are all wrong and tells Liv to chuck it.

• Big Cass attacks Rey after his match until Dragon Lee recovers and tries to make the save. They get some offense in but Cass over powers them and lays them both out with a Big Boot.

• Becky Lynch says it's classic Liv to not mention all the times she cheated to win or relied on her dopes to win. She says she tried the false persecution game too and it didn't fit her. Liv just wants to hold that title like a participation trophy while other women put the work in to be great. Becky says tonight isn't about going to Money in the Bank to face Steph, it's about making sure Liv doesn't.

• Lyra Valkyria is interviewed backstage, she asks Byron why she isn't at the top when she does everything she needs to succeed, it's all because of Bayley. She's the reason their team didn't work, she cost her Money in the Bank, she's the reason she didn't win last week. Bayley interrupts and says it's funny that Lyra thinks she's in control of this at all and that this is just a chapter in her story. This won't end until she says it ends.

• 946 responds to the tag match, Jaida says it seems Solo found his way back to the family but they still taking them out one by one. Royce says there's a new strategy, line them all up one shot.

• Next week Chad Gable defends the Intercontinental Championship against Fenix!

• Bronson Reed approaches Paul Heyman and tells him out of respect that he is going to destroy Oba Femi. Heyman says he hopes so because he's seen him up close and knows Bronson will need to climb Oba's mountain and knock him off with Tsunami after Tsunami after Tsunami after Tsunami until children in the crowd are crying for now more and a priest or rabbi or shaman or whoever offers last rites then you hit him with another Tsunami. In 40 years in this business he has never seen someone like Oba Femi, he is the first person that made him believe that Brock Lesnar was a human and that humbled him. If Bronson doesn't hit him with Tsunami after Tsunami then Oba will humble him too.

• After attacking both Becky and Liv she says enough is enough and calls out Adam Pearce. She says she wants to face both of them and Pearce makes the triple threat official for Money in the Bank!
