Lucha House Party comes out for a tag match, but Lars Sullivan comes to the ring to attack them. The luchadors try to team up on him to no avail. All three men finally hit him with a triple dropkick to send him through the ropes and out of the ring. Lars looks pissed but chooses not to get back in the ring.
Becky Lynch comes to the ring before the break.
Lynch talks about how crazy the past few months have been for her. She says Charlotte beating her for the SmackDown title woke something up in her. Lacey Evans comes out to insult her like usual.
The Queen comes out to brag about being more than halfway to beating her dad's record of 16 titles. Evans tells Flair to go back to SmackDown before decking her in the face. It looks like this will turn into a match since a ref is in the ring.

Becky ends up causing a DQ when she pulls Flair out of the ring and hits Charlotte with a side slam.
Rey Mysterio comes
to the ring and talks about why he must relinquish the US title. Samoa Joe
interrupts him and says Mysterio needs to hand over the title he never should
have won in the first place. Rey says he is man enough to do what needs to be
done. He lays the title on the round for Joe to take. Mysterio promises to
return for the title. Joe grabs him as he tries to get out of the ring and
chokes him out.

Seth Rollins comes out and dares Brock Lesnar to come out and cash in his title shot. Baron Corbin comes out instead and talks some trash to the champ. They start brawling and Rollins gets the upper hand with an enziguiri and a suicide dive. Brock's music hits and Corbin takes advantage of the distraction by hitting End of Days. Lesnar comes out with Heyman and a referee. He kicks Rollins below the belt and hits him several times with a chair. He launches Rollins with a German suplex before picking up the chair for another shot. He takes The Architect out of the ring and hits an F5. He hits Rollins a few more times with the chair for good measure as Heyman pleads with him to officially cash in his contract.

Rollins get stretchered out of the ring to the back to the ambulance.
Triple H gets an NXT chant from the crowd but says he is here to talk about Randy Orton. Before he can say anything else, The Viper heads to the ring.
Triple H doesn't beat around the bush and says he is going to kick Orton's ass on Friday. Orton says he is not Batista; he is the Legend Killer. Trips is about to leave when Orton says he should get his testicles back from Stephanie's purse. Everyone gets a good laugh. Triple H says they are too big to carry around, but Orton wouldn't know about that because he has never had any. Triple H throws the mic at Orton before he leaves.

message to Goldberg, telling him that he wants to see the mythical Goldberg,
