Apollo Crews makes something of Solo Sikoa cutting in line at security, so The Bloodline takes him out with the security team.
Cody Rhodes tries to talk about Kevin Owens, but is interrupted by American Made. Chad Gable needs to tell him something about the people in his hometown of Minnesota. They are pretty simple-minded. So, here’s the truth for him and them. He was the beacon of inspiration for him, but he left his friend high and dry, much like Otis did to him. Whatever he has coming to him, he deserves it.
Cody is a little disappointed, because he sees a lot of him in Chad Gable. Remember Shorty G? Meet Stardust. They made things work. So, he is all about what he is going through, but he has so much to lose. What if he fails again? What happens when he goes for his endgame and he fails again? Does his new friends get hurt when he can’t take the blame for his failures? Gable cuts him off and tells Cody he does not know him, and he would whoop his ass right now if he wasn’t wearing a suit. If that is so, Cody Rhodes wants Chad Gable to ask Nick Aldis for a match.
Backstage, some heated words are exchanged between Bianca Belair and the pairing of Chelsea Green and Piper Niven. Belair hits Green, but is then double teamed and left laying.
#1. [Women’s US Championship Tournament Qualifier] Tiffany Stratton vs. Elektra Lopez vs. Naomi – Winner: Tiffany Stratton
The Street Profits are taken out backstage by a mystery attacker. Johnny Gargano tells Nick Aldis that DIY could step in, but he seems reluctant. Motor City Machines is fine with them having the match. Aldis tells Gargano to let Tommaso Ciampa know that he better not regret making this decision.
#2. Bianca Belair vs. Piper Niven (w/ Chelsea Green) – Winner: Bianca Belair
In a vignette, Shinsuke Nakamura says there has been a rebirth. A transformation out of necessity. LA Knight… this is the beginning of your end.
Shinsuke Nakamura enters and makes his way to the ring. LA Knight enters immediately after. He tells Nakamura that he is the worst example of a US Champion. So, let’s not waste time. He wants a rematch, and he wants it now. Just as he looks to enter the ring, Andrade interrupts him. The Bloodline suddenly appears! They take out Andrade and LA Knight, but they don’t touch Shinsuke Nakamura as he has the Mist ready to go.
Solo Sikoa grabs a microphone. If anyone thinks The Bloodline is finished, or is weak, he dares anyone to step up and take a shot. They will lay their ass out every single time. He is tired of people not taking him seriously. Thinking he is a joke. You can laugh all you want, but he is still the Tribal Chief. He is still the Head Of The Table. So, to anyone who wants to come down to the ring, they will acknowledge him.
Kevin Owens can’t put it into words how excited he is for a Michael Cole interview in Minnesota. Ok, he can put it into words. It sucks! So, if he wants to interview him, he needs to find his car to have a chat.
#3. [WWE Tag Team Championship) Motor City Machine Guns (c) vs. DIY – Winner: DIY become the new champions!
Michael Cole interviews Kevin Owens in his car. He wanted to do an unbiased interview, but Owens does not believe that. He can’t believe Cole does not see things the way he does after everything he has seen. What about what Cody Rhodes said? And he has been given special treatment ever since he got back. Cole points out that it wasn’t just him who helped Reigns. The Usos and Sami Zayn did it as well. He thinks Kevin is being petty and should look in a mirror. He is the problem. Owens tells him to get out of his car right now. He drives away.
#4. Cody Rhodes vs. Chad Gable – Winner: Cody Rhodes
Kevin Owens shows up and a fight ensues. Security struggles to keep them apart as the show goes off air.
