- The show kicked off with The Bloodline coming out, only to immediately be attacked by Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton and Kevin Owens, who sent them packing. Nick Aldis, flanked by security guards, then came out to try to regain some control. After the commercial break, the brawl was still going on, and it took the babyfaces calming down enough to decide to walk off. Eventually, they were escorted out of the arena.
- Money in the Bank Qualifying Match: Tiffany Stratton defeated Jade Cargill and Candice LeRae by pinfall – Nia Jax and Bianca Belair were arguing ringside, distracting the referee, allowing Indi Hartwell to interfere, push Cargill into the ring post on the outside, and Stratton was able to capitalize on the confusion to pin LeRae.
- Backstage, Bayley wished Naomi good luck in her qualifier. Blair Davenport came over to gloat that she’ll be winning and then taking the title from Bayley.
- Also backstage, Michin asked Nick Aldis for a match against Nia Jax. She was granted it. Then, B-Fab and The Street Profits asked Aldis for a shot at The Bloodline. He denied it. Too much chaos going on. Pretty Deadly then came over and it seems we’re getting them against Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins instead.
- Paul Heyman tried to talk some sense into Solo Sikoa and asked where Jacob Fatu is. Sikoa said he does listen to The Wise Man, and that’s why Fatu isn’t here tonight.
- Money in the Bank Qualifying Match: LA Knight defeated Logan Paul and Santos Escobar by pinfall (on Paul)
- In the locker room, Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews celebrated Santos Escobar losing the previous match. Carmelo Hayes interrupted them to talk about how he plans to sell merch of “Melo in the Bank” once he wins the ladder match. Crews said Hayes is in way over his head. Hayes pointed out how he pinned Randy Orton last week and people should put their money on Melo.
- Money in the Bank Qualifying Match: Naomi defeated Blair Davenport and Indi Hartwell by pinfall on Hartwell after some interference from Jade Cargill.
- Backstage, Byron Saxton interviewed #DIY. Austin Theory almost immediately interrupted. Johnny Gargano reiterated that Grayson Waller isn’t Theory’s friend and is only using Theory to keep the tag titles. Waller then attacked Gargano from behind and both he and Tommaso Ciampa were laid out until Theory grabbed Waller and ran off.
- Bloodline Acknowledgment Ceremony: Despite what he said earlier, Solo Sikoa brings out Jacob Fatu, who joins Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa in acknowledging Solo Sikoa as Tribal Chief. When Sikoa tells Paul Heyman it’s his turn to do the same and to adorn him with his ceremonial Ula Fala, Heyman refuses. The Bloodline then goes after him, taking him out with a Samoan Spike and eventually powerbombing him through the commentary table.
