Corbin plugs Lesnar's dominating performance over Strowman and his Survivor Series match with WWE Champion AJ Styles. He also plugs RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey vs. SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch plus the Traditional 5-on-5 Elimination matches. Every match is the chance for RAW to show it's superior.

Corbin chose himself to be the Team Captain for the men's team because he's what they need. Corbin says his managerial duties won't allow him to compete in the match, so he's going to put together the most dominant team possible. He announces Ziggler and Drew McIntyre as the first two members. Strowman is also on the team.
