Austin Aries vs. Noam Dar
Austin Aries won
Seth Rollins limps his way to the ring with the help of a crutch to sign the hold harmless agreement for his match against Triple H.
Triple H demands Rollins sit in the chair while he explains all the right he is giving up by signing the contract. Triple tells Rollins he is basically giving up any safety net he has and will end up being destroyed at WrestleMania.
No matter what Triple H says, Rollins tells him to sign the contract and hand it over. Triple talks for a long time about how Rollins is making the wrong decision.
Rollins says he used to like himself before he met Triple H and he was perfectly happy wrestling for food in an armory. He says this match is about redemption, not revenge. Seth regrets giving up every friendship he had to stand next to Triple H. He grabs the pen, signs the contract and throws the pen at Triple H. Trips kicks the table into the bad knee and then kicks it out from under him.
Triple H grabs the crutch, but Rollins surprises him with an enziguiri. He ends up back dropping Triple H over the top rope to avoid a Pedigree. He gets in one good shot with the crutch to send The Game back out of the ring to end the segment.
Over the Top Rope Challenge
After eliminating Mahal, Big Show makes equally quick work of Bo Dallas. The Shining Stars come out at the same time, but The World's Largest
Athlete throws them out with ease. Goldust, Curtis Axel and R-Truth rush the ring and all seven men go after Big Show at the same time. They get him over the top rope, but he gets angry and runs back in to take them out one at a time.

Braun Strowman comes out with a mic and says he could kick Big Show's butt if he wanted to, but he won't because that is what everyone else wants. He says we will have to wait until WrestleMania as Big Show challenges him to come to the ring.

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman head to the ring
Heyman delivers another one of his classic promos about how Lesnar will destroy his opponent.
Goldberg comes out on the ramp, but he doesn't go all the way to the ring. He says people came to see them fight, not talk. He thinks it's a good idea to bring WrestleMania to Philly and he heads to the ring. Lesnar tries to meet him in the aisle, but he gets dropped with a Spear.
The show ends with Goldberg standing tall in the ring with his Universal Championship while Heyman helps Lesnar up the ramp.
Rating 80/80
Great show and promos but also matches as we
look on to WrestleMania! The Match Card looks insane and I can't wait to watch
it. Tomorrow we will see the last SmackDown before WrestleMania! What will SmackDown Live give us before WrestleMania?
