Andrade Almas vs Drew McIntyre

Almas mocks Drew and tried his best to frustrate him before Drew tosses him out of the ring and smashes him into the barricade along ringside.

Tyler Bate vs Jack Gallagher WWE United Kingdom Championship Match

They start the match by trying to manipulate each others wrists, then lock up before Jack puts Tyler in a full nelson before he slips out of it. Jack takes Tyler down, then goes back to focusing on his wrist before wrapping his arms up and reclining on him like a chair for a quick two count when his shoulders touch the mat. Jack then counters a roll up before they stand and square off as we go to commercial.

We come back to Jack bending and twisting the wrist of Tyler before stomping on it. They exchange straight armbars, then Jack takes Tyler back down before Tyler tries to flip him, but Jack won't let go. Jack then goes Tyler up with a series of submissions before covering him for a near fall. They take turns trying to pin the others shoulders down and flipping each other before Tyler drops Jack with a right hand and hits a bridging German suplex for a near fall. Jack goes for a double wrist lock, but Tyler powers out of it with a suplex for a near fall of his own.

Jack rolls out onto the apron and tries to recover, but Tyler sends him to the floor with a right hand. Tyler goes to dice through the ropes, but Jack headbutts him right before he does, then gets back in the ring before dropping Tyler with another headbutt, collapsing on him for a near fall. Tyler then hits the Tyler Driver 97 for the pin and the win.

Winner: Tyler Bate via pinfall
