The show opens with a video recapping Cena and Reigns' big contract signing from last week.
John Cena vs. Jason Jordon
John Cena won
Roman Reigns came out before the break. When we return, he and Cena are still in the ring. Roman asks Cena why it took him almost 20 minutes to beat Jordan when he is a 16-time champion. He accuses Cena of giving Jordan hope just so he can crush it, but he also
says Cena might simply be less capable than he used to be.
Cena says it's a mistake for Reigns to try to use his brain and makes a joke about Roman not having any balls. He says Reigns will get all the answers he seeks at No Mercy. He calls
Reigns a conceited golden boy who needs to be taught respect. He says even The Miz has earned his respect over the years because he never stops hustling.
Cena says Reigns makes a lot of claims, but none of the fans agree with him. He asks if Roman can use his brain to see what is actually happening or if he needs to beat some sense into him. Reigns dares him to do it. They each say they don't respect each other.
Cesaro and Sheamus vs. Heath and Rhyno w/ Ambrose and Rollins at commentary.
Cesaro and Sheamus won
Jeff Hardy vs. The Miz (c) for the IC Title
The Miz retains
Nia Jax is shown asking for a title match when Emma walks in and asks for one, too. Angle has the bright idea to have them team up to take on Bliss and Banks. If Emma and Nia win, they will be added to the title match at No Mercy.
Enzo Amore and Gran Metalik and Cedric Alexander vs. Tony Nese and Gulak and Noam Dar
Enzo Amore and Gran Metalik and Cedric Alexander won
Finn Balor talks about how he might be IC champion right now had Bray Wyatt not cost him the win in last week's Battle Royal. It doesn't take long for Wyatt to appear on the big screen and make some vague threats.
Wyatt challenges Balor to another match at No Mercy.
Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax and Emma (if Emma and Nia Jax win the title match at No Mercy will come a Fatal 4 Way)
Nia Jax and Emma won - the Women's Championship match at No Mercy will be a Fatal 4 Way!
Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose vs. Anderson and Gallows w/Sheamus and Cesaro at
ringside.
Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose won
Big Show vs. Braun Strowman in a Steel Cage Match
Braun Strowman won
Braun grabs a mic and brags about beating a giant. He declares he will do the same to Lesnar at No Mercy.
The show ends with Strowman picking up Big Show for another powerslam, but this time he puts Big Show through the cage wall to the floor.
Rating: 80/80
Pretty insane show leading us to WWE No Mercy!

The New Day vs. The Usos
The Usos won
John Cena vs. Jinder Mahal
Cena looks shocked, but he also has a smile on his face. He puts Mahal up on the top rope for a super AA and hits it. Baron Corbin comes in and breaks up the pin by throwing his briefcase at Cena. The ref calls for the bell and Corbin nails Cena with the case right in the head. It looks like he is about to leave, but then he looks at his briefcase and decides to cash it in.

Jinder Mahal vs. Baron Corbin (WWE Title)
Cena gets on the apron as the bell rings and Corbin lays him out. Mahal rolls Corbin up and gets the win out of nowhere. Corbin freaks out and rips up the announce table while Cena laughs at him.
The show ends with The Lone Wolf throwing a fit while Mahal exits with his cronies and Cena smiles at his rival's misfortune.
Sucks to be Corbin but I think Corbin will take it on Cena Sunday at SummerSlam, which could make the match even more intense.
Rating: 70/70
Great show and matches as we look on to SummerSlam. Even though we left with the sadness that Corbin is no holding the MITB briefcase anymore. Also, great tension between KO/AJ/Shane and I think it is interesting and entertaining. I can't wait tell SummerSlam.
