We are gifted with another Fashion Files segment. It still has an X Files theme. They share a hug before The Ascension walk in and confess to trashing their office. They say they did it because they felt like it. Fandango doesn't believe them because they weren't at SmackDown last week.
Someone knocks out Breeze and Fandango from off screen and drags Fandango away as the segment ends
Mike Kanellis (w/ Maria at ringside) vs. Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn wins.
Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal (C) for the WWE Championship in a Punjabi Prison Match
Jinder Mahal retained the WWE Championship thanks to the great khali returning and getting involved and helping Jinder win.
The show ended with holding up the title at the ramp. But, it sucked Great Khali got in involved and the Singh brothers did too. Just annoying. Please someone take it away from Jinder soon. I was actually hoping Corbin would cash in but that didn't happen.
Rating: 50/50
It was okay. Good matches. Had some intense matches and action. The ending was just the same as always Jinder wining with help.
