New Day vs. JBL. Book it.
The segment between New Day and JBL started backstage, as Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods ran into the 'Wrestling God' just before Kingston's singles match with Rey Mysterio. JBL ran down Kingston and Woods, praising Big E for being the better (former) member of the New Day.

Then, JBL joined the commentary desk for the bout between Kingston and Mysterio. Before the match began, Kingston and Woods took a verbal lashing to JBL, invalidating his status as a WWE Hall Of Famer.
The match between Kingston and Mysterio was competitive, but it ended in quick fashion, as Mysterio trapped Kingston in a sit-down pin for the three count. Woods and Kingston attempted to double team Mysterio after the match, prompting Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro to make the save.
