All Superstars, WWE Officials, referees, and other backstage personnel were in the catering area at the XL Center in Hartford Ct. as the three of McMahon walked into the catering area and held a meeting about tonight, the show, and what would go down during the show, and that no one is to interrupt the main event segment with the McMahon family being in the ring. Everyone understood the mandate from the WWE Chairman and COO.
Two hours later, WWE Monday Night RAW opened up with Shane McMahon announcing that his baby sister Sabrina McMahon Cena would be at RAW to confront their father Vince McMahon Sr. RAW then went the normal opening video a look back at last week's show with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns and AJ Styles. A live shot inside the XL Center as the announcers hype some of the matches and that Sabrina McMahon Cena will be there tonight as here come the Money hits and out comes Shane McMahon to a pop. Shane makes his way to the ring as the fans cheer on him. Shane enters the ring and picks up the mic.
Shane says, "He's back because of the fans, but tonight is about Sabrina McMahon Cena and confronting my father Vincent Kennedy McMahon Sr." The fans cheer and chant, "Sabrina"
Shane chuckled and said, "We're going to have more new faces and new match–ups tonight."
He's interrupted by the music and out comes Stephanie McMahon making her return. Stephanie makes her way to the ring. Stephanie tries to sell herself as one of the people, but they boo her.
Shane interrupted her, and said, "She really knows how to take the air out of the room. No offense, Steph, but tonight is not about you, it's about our father Vince Sr., and baby sister Sabrina." The fans cheer again and they want to see Sabrina.
Stephanie says, "I was born in Hartford"
Shane interrupted her "Hold, it's Steph. You were not the only one who was born in Hartford, Ct., Vincent Jr. who is 45 minutes old was born here and so was Sabrina."
"If you let me finish Shane that's not why I am out here. I am not here to brag either."
"That's a first you not wanting to brag."
The fans cheer. Shane asked then why is she in Hartford then.
"I was told by our mother to be here tonight."
"Well, then I cannot get mad at Mom."
Stephanie announced this is the last night Shane would be running RAW and fans booed, a "No" chant started.
Stephanie says, "Vince McMahon Sr. will be at Payback on Sunday to announce who will be running RAW for good- it will either be you Shane, or me."
Shane told Stephanie that she needed to leave the ring until Sabrina arrived at the XL Center. Stephanie refuses, and he has security come down. She leaves the ring, and they escort her up the ramp. AJ Styles' music hits and out he comes. He greets Shane on the ramp and heads to the ring. RAW go to commercials.
"Where is Mommy?" Sophia asked her daddy.
"Mommy is probably backstage sweetie."
"Dad, can we stay up to watch mommy segment?" Julian asked
"Well, if I let you stay up you cannot tell Mommy, because she will be mad at me."
"We promise."
"Good."
RAW returns from the break and AJ Styles waits before Sheamus comes out by himself. They watched the match that had good action between Sheamus and Styles. The action continues until Sheamus misses a Brogue, getting hung up, on the top rope. AJ Styles goes to the apron and springboards back in nails the Phenomenal Forearm and covers Sheamus for the win.
After the match, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson come out to the stage in their gear. They applaud as AJ looks on from the ring, somewhat confused. A replay is shown and comes back to Gallows and Anderson continuing to give props to AJ. They see WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns backstage watching as the fans boo. The Usos walk in and they all believe Styles is working with Gallows and Anderson. The Usos remind Reigns they have his back. They hear the fans "We can't hear you" in the arena. Reigns offers his assistance as well, and they give each other love before the Usos leave.
Backstage Stephanie, Vincent, Shane, and Vince were discussing what will happen in their segment with Sabrina and Linda.
"The pop that Sabrina gets is going to shake the rafts," Stephanie chuckled
"It might be louder than Stone Cold's surprise appearance heck even when the Rock returns."
"It will be a sight to see when Sabrina walks out to the stage and WWE Universe is going wild for her."
"Yes. Steph you have no problem if Bri berating you in front of the WWE Universe?" Shane asked
"No. I deserve it after how I acted sixteen years ago when that scumbag weasels his way into my life and made me forget about my baby sister who I promise to protect until my last breath."
"Steph don't be so hard on yourself, Bri has forgiven you for your action, but as for the scumbag she will never forgive him even when she is on her deathbed, she told us that."
"Yeah Steph, it is written in her will that no one including a priest is to ask her if she has a change of heart and wants to forgive him."
Steph smiled and said, "I still cannot believe I did not see what was going on, because if I did, I would put is stop to it,"
"You Steph, I accidentally dismissed your sister, by telling her I was busy, and I shouldn't have done that. I always told you kids whenever you need to talk to me I am available to talk or listen."
"Everyone makes mistakes, Dad."
"I know Shane, but still I let that scumbag into my family the family I am supposed to protect, and keep scumbag like that out of my family."
"True Dad that scumbag cost John his WWE career, and cause Mom a lot of pain, especially around holidays and Sabrina's birthday."
"Yes, that is all in the past now. Sabrina is back with the family your mother is happy, and that's all that matter right now."
Stephanie, Vincent, and Shane chuckled they knew their parents' marriage suffered including in the love department but Vince never cheated on Linda.
"Stop laughing," Vince said firmly
"Sorry, Dad."
The four McMahons continue to watch RAW from their private locker room waiting for the arrival of Linda and Sabrina. They watched The Usos take on Gallows and Anderson and saw the action in the match, how Gallows and Anderson won the match, and then what happened after the match had ended, and Roman Reigns saving his cousins. They continued to watch the show and saw Renee Young interviewing Styles backstage when Gallows and Anderson interrupted hey title Styles has his back and their friendship is forever. They embrace before walking away together.
The McMahons see the announcers talking about there being a camera set up in the garage area As the camera switches to the garage area everyone can see the security in the garage area JBL mentions coming into the arena early today it was like going through security check in the airport.
Michael Cole compares it too, like when the President of the United States is in town. The four McMahon chuckled as they saw a video for Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens WWE Payback. They watched Zayn vs. Rusev match and saw how Zayn won the match with a roll-up. They saw Lana throwing a fit and throwing her shoe at Sami as he backed up the ramp. Kevin Owens runs out and nails Sami from behind. Owens just stands over Sami as fans react.
They saw Renee interviewing Apollo Crews next before being interrupted by Stardust and then watched the match that saw good action until Crews hit the spin-out powerbomb for the win. The McMahons continue to watch the Ambrose/Jericho segment that had a brawl between the two superstars, after the brawl, they see an earlier in the night Shane and Stephanie and the announcement that Vince Sr. will be at Payback on Sunday to decide who runs RAW.
The McMahons see Emma in the ring waiting on the WWE Women's Champion Natalya who makes her entrance to pops the announcers talk about how Natalya defended the WWE Diva title at WrestleMania and then was awarded the WWE Women's title by Lita.
Before the match can begin the music hits and the outcome Charlotte and Ric Flair, head to the commentary table, and Miz and Maryse come out to ringside to even things up. No way Miz and Maryse were going to let anything happen to Natalya. Emma and Natalya went back and forth but Emma took control and unloaded on Natalya after taking it to the floor, and then back into the ring. Emma covers Natalya for two counts. Emma applied a full Nelson submission, then slammed Natalya's face into the turnbuckles as the referee counted. Emma hits a big clothesline, but Natalya makes a comeback nails a shoulder block followed by a clothesline, and then snaps powerslam, followed by an inverted headlock backbreaker. Natalya set Emma up for her finishing move and then hit a reverse neckbreaker for the win.
After the match, Miz and Maryse enter the ring to congratulate Nattie on her victory as the Referee hands her the WWE Women's title raises it high, and then decides to taunt Charlotte with the title. Vince's cell rang and he grabbed it and looked to see his wife calling
"Hi, honey."
"Hi, love; we should be arriving soon at the XL Center."
"Okay honey, there are cameras in the garage area, to show the fans that you are arriving at the XL Center."
"Okay see you soon."
"Yes, you will. I love you," he said
"I love you too," she said ending her call with Vince.
Linda looked over at Sabrina who was looking out the window "Pebbles," Sabrina turned her head and looked at her mom.
"Yes, mom?"
"There are cameras in the garage area to show the WWE Universe our arrival at XL Center."
"Okay, Mom."
"Are you nervous about being the ring with the family?" her mother asked her
"No, I am not nervous just thinking about what I will say knowing there is no script for this segment," she replied.
"Hey," she began. Sabrina looked at her mom "You will be just fine. We your family know what you are going to say are all made up because we know the truth."
Sabrina smiled "I know Mom, but I need to be very convincing because the WWE Universe believes what Vincent said last month, and then your allegation toward Dad."
Linda smiled "Well, channeling your inner McMahon right now."
Sabrina chuckled "Okay Mom I will channel my inner McMahon."
Back at the XL Center, Sabrina's brother-in-law Michael is in the ring with his wife Maryse for MizTV. Maryse introduces him as the most handsome man in the world and he brags about being WWE Intercontinental champion, about defending against Cesaro on Sunday at WWE Payback. Miz praises Shane for his new ideas and brings back my sister-in-law the one and only Sabrina Cena who is on her way here.
The WWE Universe erupted into a cheer, hearing that Sabrina is on her way to the XL Center. Miz talking about the IC title and what it means to him and WWE when Cesaro interrupts the Miz; and comes out to a pop. Cesaro makes his way to the ring and enters the ting pose for the WWE Universe then gets a mic. Cesaro faces off with The Miz as the fans cheer. Miz and Cesaro began trading promos and movie lines before Miz stated that my sister-in-law should be here shortly.
Miz leaves with Maryse as the fans cheer, he stops and runs to the apron, but stops and realizes Cesaro is not worth the time and energy right now, knowing Sabrina and her mother Linda are probably minutes away from the XL Center. Miz drops off the apron and leaves with Maryse. Everyone sees the garage area, on the Titan Tron as the security looks around as a long black limousine drives into the arena followed by a Cadillac Escalade, as RAW goes back to commercials.
