Renee Young brings out AJ Styles at the top of the show for an interview. She immediately asks him if it's fair for him to have to defend the title in a handicap match. He says he was being sarcastic when he said he would face Owens and Zayn, but he knows he can’t take back what he said.
Styles refuses to point fingers and blame anyone for his current position despite Young needling him with questions. KO and Zayn come out on the stage to mock Styles and his nicknames.
