Raw: April 9, 2040

We open with the winner of the Beat the Clock challenge and the man who will face Noah Carmichael for the Unified World Title at Backlash, Haven. Before we even hear from him, however, Noah Carmichael himself busts onto the scene and joins Haven in the ring. He asks for everyone's forgiveness but he spent all of last week sitting back watching everyone stumble over themselves and waiting to see who would become the number one contender so he's a little antsy and eager to jump back into the thick of things. He tells Haven that this has been a long time coming between the two of them. From the days of the City Slickers versus the Order, to the merger between the two factions that Carmichael wanted no part of (by the way, how'd that work out for you, Haven), to last year's WrestleMania, to somehow the two of us becoming the tag team champions, and then not too long ago when Haven screwed things up in a match where they were teammates. Carmichael declares that he never swallowed what Haven sells and that hasn't changed. Hike up your big boy pants, Haven, because the only way you're getting to that holy land you're always talking about is through Carmichael.

Haven steps up to Carmichael and tells him that the two of them are in complete agreement on that last point but wants to make it clear that when it comes to Carmichael, it won't be so much a holy land as hell on Earth. "Pray for your soul, Carmichael...I won't." We go to break with the two competitors in a stand-off.

Demiras finally notices this and rolls to the outside to give chase. The minute he grabs Hotbody from behind however, Hotbody quickly spins around thrusting the belt into the face of Demiras.

At Backlash, the two of them will compete IN AN I QUIT MATCH! McDaniels may have betrayed LaSalle, humilated him, and even beat him, but he still hasn't broken him. Who knows? It may turn out to be even more embarrassing than losing in the main event of WrestleMania!
