He called Lashley out, and "The All Mighty" came to the ring. The two powerhouses brawled until they were separated. Even Triple H tried to break it up, and eventually the officials were successful.

- Mr. Money in the Bank Austin Theory battled WWE United States Champion Seth Rollins in a non-title match, determined to prove Rollins wrong about him.

He called himself the greatest of all time and noted that he always smashes his opponents. Reigns refused to hype a match with an "outsider" like Paul, but he told Paul Heyman to do so. Before Heyman could say much, The Miz interrupted, hoping to offer Reigns some advice about Paul. He pointed out that Paul has knockout power, and he wanted Reigns to help him out ahead of his match with Mustafa Ali. Instead, Reigns dropped him with a Superman Punch.

- When informed that Johnny Gargano did a tell-all interview about him, The Miz threatened to sue for defamation. Mustafa Ali made fun of his tiny balls before he faced "The A-Lister" in a match. Thanks to a timely distraction from Dexter Lumis, Ali scored the win over a distracted Miz.
