On the July 10 episode of WWE Speed, Baron Corbin faced Angelo Dawkins in a first-round match in the new #1 Contender's Tournament. Corbin took control early on as he slammed Dawkins with a Death Valley Driver. He grounded Dawkins, but the former tag team champion rallied. Dawkins got a two-count with a Swanton. The match came down to the last minute, and the two stars went back and forth.
In the end, Corbin hit the End of Days for the win.
