The show starts with the regular intro, but it's interrupted by spooky imagery cut ins (possibly the Undertaker?) Things go back to normal as the show kicks off with Bayley making her way to the ring to a big pop. She asks who's ready for Wrestlemania, and says it's her favorite time of the year. She talks about how she and her friends used to beg her parents to order it, but that now she doesn't need to because she's in. She says the odds are stacked against her, but is cut off by Charlotte Flair. She asks Bayley if she planned going to Mania as the paper champion, and tells her Sasha made her her pawn.

Now that Bayley is champ she regains that ability, and Charlotte says Sasha knew exactly what she was doing. She says Sasha isn't Bayley's friend, and she'll walk out without a future. Charlotte shows a tweet Sasha sent saying "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer" , as Sasha comes out to respond. She says Charlotte is trying to stir the pot, but Nia comes out to state her case. She calls them cute for all their high school drama, and calls them pathetic. She says that once she wins it'll have a permanent home, but Charlotte says the only reason she's in it is because Sasha is getting tired of pretending to be Bayley's friend anymore.
