AJ Styles makes his way to the ring. He says his New Year's resolutions are to carry the WWE title to WrestleMania and leave with it still around his waist.
Styles complains about Daniel Bryan allowing KO to accompany Zayn to the ring for their match, so he asks D-Bry to come out and explain himself. Bryan wastes no time heading to the ring. Before he can say anything, Shane McMahon joins them.
Shane starts by apologizing to AJ for costing him the match last week and Styles forgives him with a fist bump. Then Shane McMahon asks Bryan is he is turning the Yes Movement into the Yep Movement. He says he will be at ringside tonight to make sure KO doesn't interfere. Bryan says it Shane and Owens will be out there, he may as well join them.

AJ Styles vs. Sami Zayn w/ KO at his corner! With Danie Bryan and Shane McMahon at ringside.
Styles looks pissed and yells at the ref while Shane shoves Owens. The ref boots Owens from ringside. Bryan grabs a mic and tells Shane he should leave, too. Zayn sticks AJ with the Helluva Kick during the confusion and gets the win.
Styles grabs a mic and starts yelling at everyone to stop acting like children. He says he may as well face Zayn and Owens in a handicap match, so Bryan books it for the Rumble with the title on the line.
The show ends with Zayn and Owens celebrating Bryan's decision while Shane looks at him disapprovingly. The Royal Rumble should be a very interesting.
