- The show opens with a special team of people carrying in the WWE Crown Jewel Title in a special case.

- Corey Graves sent it to a highlight package covering everything from Roman Reigns to Jimmy Uso to the new Bloodline.

- Solo Sikoa came out to the ring. Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa flank him. Sikoa ran down his accomplishments and said that the beatdowns would continue unless Roman Reigns came down to the ring by the night's end. He's interrupted by Jey Uso, who is coming from Monday Night Raw. Jey Uso pleaded with his little brother not to break up the family. He explained that he also has issues with Roman and is okay with Solo trying to take away his power, but he doesn't want the family to suffer. Solo shut Jey down and told him to acknowledge him. Jey said there was a reason the family stayed away from Jacob and the Tongans and then got in Jacob's face. Before Uso left the ring, he said it would be different the next time he saw them.
