Reggie and Dana Brooke were out for Valentine’s Day dinner with Tozawa and Tamina in bad disguises watching them.
At the RK-Broga party, Riddle was working to be the perfect host with everyone when the Street Profits arrived and Dawkins sunk a ping pong ball in a cup and Apollo Crews and Commander Azeez didn’t look happy.
Women’s contract signing
Adam Pearce welcomed Lita and then Becky Lynch to the ring with Lynch looking like she’s having a bad case of the Grunge.
Lynch begged Lita not to do this and admitted she hasn’t slept all week knowing her teenage Idol is coming for her and assaulted her last week. She’ll let it all slide if Lita tears the contract up and walks away.

She begged Lita not to let the fans tear them apart, so when she asked what the fans think she should do they cheered at her signing it and shutting Lynch up.
She told Lynch she doesn’t have to like it, but this match is happening.
Lynch claimed she’s pushing her to a point she doesn’t want to go and doesn’t know if she can come back from and promised to go right for Lita’s neck and people will remember her with a tear in their eye.
Lita said if she had a hand in creating this Lynch, then it’s up to her to finish it and Lynch threw the contract at her and left the ring when she said she’d become Raw Women’s Champion.
