Triple H Promo
17,000 plus, sold out, Los Angeles, let me hear you. In this moment, and this is the moment, all of you are being seen and heard by the entire globe. Show them who you are. Tell them that this is the WWE, and we are louder than anything you have ever seen before. I already know the answer to this, but I’m going to ask this anyways. Are you ready? Then, welcome to Monday Night Raw. Welcome to the Netflix Era.
The Rock segment
The Rock says years ago, when he was a little pebble, highways across the country were traveled with his father, WWE Hall of Famer Soul Man Rocky Johnson, who is now in heaven. At that time, WWE could only be watched by purchasing a ticket or viewing it on the same morning. Now, tickets can still be purchased, but viewing WWE has become a completely different experience, as it is being watched globally on Netflix.
It is being proudly announced that, tonight, history is being made live from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, as the largest arena gate in WWE history has been achieved. This milestone means WWE has officially returned to Netflix. After this announcement, it is declared that it is a special night, as Los Angeles is being revisited by The Rock.
Before the show is started, acknowledgments are being given. First, gratitude is extended to Netflix for being an exceptional partner, one that deeply loves WWE, professional wrestling, and the larger vision of the sport.
Next, Cody Rhodes is acknowledged for his contributions to WWE. It is stated that blood has been spilled with him across the country and that his efforts over the past year, carrying the company on his back, have been extraordinary. A special greeting is being sent to Mama Rhodes as well.
Lastly, Roman Reigns, The Tribal Chief, is acknowledged. It is emphasized that he is the Original Tribal Chief, a title of great importance in their Samoan culture. The match between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns, under Tribal Combat Rules, is being anticipated, with The Rock and the world ready to watch closely. The Rock, as High Chief Seiuli, expresses pride and respect for this title and the mana warrior spirit it represents.
With love expressed for Los Angeles, Netflix, and the world, the show is being set into motion. If it can be smelled, The Rock’s cooking is being served.

John Cena Promo
John Cena said that everyone has been talking about the atmosphere, but it cannot be fully understood until standing out here. It is acknowledged that something feels different, with people filling every corner. Los Angeles has shown up in force. It is being emphasized that, for the first time in history, Raw is being broadcasted simultaneously across the globe. The difference lies in the energy and enthusiasm of the audience, which is being felt worldwide, from South Korea to Brazil. Gratitude is being expressed to Netflix for making this possible and to Monday Night Raw for providing the honor of performing in a WWE ring in Los Angeles, wearing full jorts, for the last time.
John Cena shared that Los Angeles holds a special place in the journey. Memories of sleeping in a car while working at Gold’s Gym in Venice, learning to wrestle at UPW in Orange County, and living just 600 feet from the arena are being recalled. Los Angeles is where The Prototype was born, the first World Championship was won, and opportunities to perform for 25 years were given. Gratitude is humbly being expressed for the city and its role in shaping the journey.
Attention is being drawn to the ongoing farewell tour and the noise surrounding potential matches, including Drew McIntyre, CM Punk, Logan Paul, GUNTHER, and Cody Rhodes. Speculation about becoming a 17-time World Champion is being addressed, with the acknowledgment that it is unlikely. The streak of 2,456 days since the last win is being referenced as the reason. However, the possibility of achieving this feat is not being entirely dismissed because WWE follows the rule of “never say never.”
A hypothetical path to winning the 17th Championship is being explored, involving the Money in the Bank Briefcase, Elimination Chamber, or the Royal Rumble. It is being decided that participation in the Royal Rumble, the last opportunity, is necessary. It is being declared that the best way to express gratitude to the fans is by winning the Royal Rumble and making history at WrestleMania.
The determination to achieve what seems impossible is being reaffirmed, with the reminder that “never give up” is the ultimate motto. Los Angeles is being thanked once more, and the intent to win the Royal Rumble is being boldly declared. The challenge is being issued with the statement: “You want some, come get some.”

Well, let me tell you something, brother. You know something, Maniacs? I’ve been in this business for over 40 years, and the greatest part of my life was being part of this WWE, guys. You know, I’ve had a lot of tag team partners over the years, but you fans have been my greatest tag team partner, because you guys sticked with me through thick and thin, dudes. You know, I got a new tag team partner, right now. I got Hulk Hogan’s “Real American Beer” that I’ve teamed up with. And in the past, I’ve had a whole bunch of partners down the line, like, “Macho Man” Randy Savage, Andre The Giant. But the greatest tag team partner the WWE has ever had is starting tonight. We’re making history. WWE has teamed up with Netflix. WWE and Netflix the greatest tag team of all-time. So, what you going to do when WWE and Netflix run wild on you, Maniacs.
