[RAW General Manager Kurt Angle enters as his music plays]

Kurt Angle: "Last Sunday, history was made with our first ever women's Royal Rumble match. It was an incredible match, and I'm proud to say that RAW's own Asuka was the winner. And on February 25th, the Women's Evolution is about to make history again. Last Monday, the RAW Commissioner, Stephanie McMahon, made an announcement that Alexa Bliss will put the RAW Women's Championship on the line in the first ever women's... In the first ever women's Elimination Chamber match! I finally got that out there. Now, what I'd like to do is, I'd like to announce who's gonna face Alexa at the Elimination Chamber match. First up... Women's Champion, former champion, Bayley! And next is Mandy Rose! And the six-time Women's Champion, Mickie James! And there's Sonya Deville! And last but not least... it's 'The Boss' Sasha Banks! Now, conspicuous by her absence is Nia Jax. But I'm excited to say that I have a match for her at the WWE's PPV, Elimination Chamber. It will be the Irresistible Force, Nia Jax, versus the Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka. Hold on a second. Asuka's slated to face the champion at WrestleMania regardless. But if Nia Jax wins that match, she will be added to the match at WrestleMania. It will therefore be a triple threat match for the RAW Women's Championship at WrestleMania!" [Alexa Bliss's theme hits and she enters with the RAW Women's Championship around her waist]

Alexa Bliss: "Kurt, I'm sorry... but this needs to stop right now. You know, I tried being a good sport about it, but what you're doing is not only wrong, it's completely unjust. And I can't believe you had the nerve to mention the Women's Evolution with what you're trying to pull. And... I believe that your poor decision is actually against company policy. In the WWE, the Women's Evolution means that the expectations of the men's and women's success are the same. That means they're equal, right? Right or wrong?"

Kurt Angle: "No, you're correct about that, yes."

Alexa Bliss: "Well, how come in the women's Elimination Chamber match, the title is on the line? But in the men's Elimination Chamber match, that's not the case, is it? So, so you're telling me that your champion Brock Lesnar just gets to sit on the sideline, watching to see who wins? Why do I not get that exact privilege, Kurt? Kurt, is it because I'm 'just a woman'?"

Kurt Angle: "First of all, Brock Lesnar successfully defended his title at the Royal Rumble. I don't know what you're trying to pull here--"

Alexa Bliss: "I'm not trying to pull anything."

Kurt Angle: "--the last time you defended your title was at TLC in October."

Alexa Bliss: "And whose fault is that, Kurt? I don't make the matches, you do. I just don't understand why you're treating the men's champion differently than the women's champion. Do you value Brock Lesnar more than you value me? I think you're guilty of preferential treatment, and quite frankly... I think that's sexist!"

Kurt Angle: "It never occurred to me to compare you and Brock. Okay? My job as General Manager is to put on the best matches that I possibly can. I feel like you're trying to weasel your way out of this match, but I tell you what... I'm not gonna make the decision; I'm gonna ask the audience. [to the crowd] I'm gonna ask you a simple yes or no question: Do all of you want to see Alexa Bliss defend the RAW Women's Championship in the first ever women's Elimination Chamber match?" [loud cheers and 'yes' chants]

Alexa Bliss: [to the crowd] "Yeah, yeah, go ahead, chant 'yes' like the brainless sheep you are! I am the RAW Women's Champion, I deserve respect!" [The crowd boos loudly. Alexa leaves the ring in disgust. As she walks up the ramp she turns to scowl at Angle]

Kurt Angle: [to the crowd] "I'm gonna ask you again. Do you want to see that match?" [cheers and "yes" chants]
