The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) head to the ring. Vincent says that The Righteous have either died or they are just changing, as The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy)threw them in and called it the end. He then says you cannot drown an idea, and truth, like vines, keep on growing. Dutch says the Lake did not wash them away, but it showed what comes next, and while water usually cleans the body, the Lake reshapes direction. He says the Lake took them away from The Hardys and towards something beyond them. Vincent says they wanted not to destroy The Hardys, but to reveal them, and they gave something even The Hardys did not realize, and now, The Hardys are "The Ultimate GOATs." He says that everything changed and that their work with The Hardys is finished for now, and they now work towards something greater. Dutch mentions the people who always feel invisible and Vincent mentions the labels forced upon them, then says that with The Righteous, one does not need to live with such labels. Dutch says a flower can easily be trampled, but a garden cannot, and Vincent says that if the world has forgotten your name, that is good, for it is now time for the world to hear theirs.

Mara Sadé shows up and mentions that the two of them have a shared history, but Elayna says the big difference between them is that she sacrificed on the indies to get here while Mara Sadé was handed the opportunity to be a pro wrestler. She says that she earned this, and that regardless of who is in her way, she will be Knockouts Champion while Mara Sadé will continue to be an obvious industry plant who does not deserve a single second here.
