Tag Team Title Tournament Match: The Ascension vs. The Usos

Carmella vs. Nikki Bella

She asks what it means to fight back from a near career-ending neck injury. Nikki starts to talk about what it means to her but Carmella attacks from behind and lays her out. The referee tries to back her off. Carmella puts Nikki back down and talks trash while holding her by the hair. Carmella drops Nikki with a DDT and stands tall to a mixed reaction. She beats on Nikki some more before being backed out of the ring by a referee. Another official checks on Nikki as she clutches her neck. Carmella comes back over and hits Nikki with her own move, the Bella Buster. Carmella’s music hits and she makes her exit as Nikki tries to recover in the ring. We go to replays.


Orton says no one expected him tonight but here he is. He points out the 10 staples in his head and says he was in one hell of a fight with Brock Lesnar on Sunday. Orton says he knew what he was getting into but he would’ve rather went out on a gurney to have it end how it did. He says Shane McMahon thought he was doing the right thing by intervening. Maybe on paper he was. Orton says one day he will cross paths with Lesnar again… the lights hit and out comes Bray Wyatt.Wyatt asks how Orton’s head is doing and laughs at him. Wyatt says he saw what Lesnar did to him on Sunday. Wyatt is speaking from his rocking chair at ringside. Wyatt says Orton is a man, a great man but just a man… a man who hurts, suffers and dies. Wyatt says he is not just a man, he is a God and a God can never die. Wyatt tells Orton not to worry because he’s going to find out all about it, in time. Orton motions for Wyatt to come in and fight. The lights hit again and when they come on, the chair is rocking but Wyatt is nowhere to be seen. They go out again and we cut to backstage.


Tag Team Title Tournament Match: Breezango vs. American Alpha

Winners: American Alpha


Dolph Ziggler vs. AJ Styles

Winner and New #1 Contender: AJ Styles

After the match, Styles stands tall as Ziggler looks devastated. We get replays and come back to AJ leaving the ring. He approaches Ambrose at the announce table and points at the WWE Title. Ambrose isn’t phased and AJ knocks the headset off him. Dean comes up but the referee is there to get in between them. SmackDown goes off the air with AJ and Dean staring at each other.
