Cody Rhodes vs Ludwig Kaiser (w/ Giovanni Vinci)

Paul Heyman appeared at the top of the ramp to watch this match. Cody Rhodes was going to go for the Cross Rhodes on Kaiser, but got distracted when Solo Sikoa and Heyman made their way to the ring. Kaiser clipped Rhodes’ knee. Rhodes rolled out of the ring. Kaiser threw Rhodes knee first into the ring steps. Kaiser hit an uppercut, a running kick, and a suplex on Rhodes. He came off the top rope but got caught by Rhodes who tried to go for the Cross Rhodes, but Kaiser reversed it into a rollup for a near fall. Rhodes hit a Cody Cutter and then hit the Cross Rhodes on Kaiser for the win.
Winner: Cody Rhodes

After the match, Sikoa was going to go in the ring after Rhodes, but Heyman stopped him. Heyman said Rhodes sees his road to WrestleMania with a giant pothole in front of him this Monday on RAW when he goes one on one with Solo. If he survives, then all roads lead to Roman Reigns who will be here next week on SmackDown to meet him face to face. He again told Sikoa that Sikoa is not ready and Reigns will find out he’s not ready either. 

In the ring, Charlotte Flair said this business was built on respect. She doesn’t fear Rhea Ripley. She respects her. She only fears her own potential. Flair said she has insecurities. She has built this house on every brick that all the fans have thrown at her for the last seven years. She loves her dad will never apologize for continuing the greatest legacy in sports entertainment, and whether they love it or hate it, diamonds are forever and so it Charlotte Flair. 

Rey Mysterio vs LA Knight

Rey’s wife, Angie, and sister, Aalyah, were sitting in the front row. Mysterio went to the top rope, but got distracted when Dominik Mysterio appeared. Knight clipped Rey which knocked him off the ropes. Rey went for the 619, but Dominik tripped him up and Knight rolled him up for the pin.
Winner: LA Knight

After the match, Dominik started pushing Rey asking him if he’s going to face him at WrestleMania. Rey said no and left. Dominik confronted his mom and asked her if she knew she married a deadbeat. He then said she did because she sat there every night while Rey abandoned him, so that makes her a deadbeat mom. His sister then jumped up and Dominik told her to sit down because she’s too stupid to understand. Angie grabbed the microphone and started to speak, but Dominik immediately grabbed the microphone back and told her to shut up because he knows at the end of the day, she supports Rey. Rey came back and punched Dominik in the face. Rey said he pushed him to do that and told him not to disrespect his mother. Rey accepted his challenge for the match at WrestleMania. 

WrestleMania Qualifying Match: Shotzi & Natalya vs Lacey Evans & Xia Li

Raquel Gonzalez and Liv Morgan were at the commentator’s desk watching this match. Natalya and Shotzi hit the Heart Attack on Li. Natalya then submitted Li with the Sharpshooter. 
Winners: Shotzi & Natalya

After the match, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler came out and challenged Shotzi & Natalya to a match. Rousey said they’ve sold out this town plenty of times and given the fans more than what they deserved, so they are not going to wrestle them tonight, but they’ve been added to the match at WrestleMania. 

Intercontinental Title Contract Signing: Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, & Gunther

Sheamus came down with Ridge Holland and Butch. Sheamus said McIntyre tried to steal his title opportunity away from him. McIntyre told Sheamus that he can’t separate what is personal and what is business, and the fact is he beat him, he can beat Gunther, and history has shown Sheamus can’t. McIntyre and Sheamus signed the contract. Gunther then came down and signed the contract. He said whatever he needs to do to defend his championship at WrestleMania will be justified. Butch flew over the table and attacked Gunther. Sheamus and Holland held him back.

Gunther vs Butch (w/ Sheamus & Rich Holland)

Drew McIntyre was also at ringside. Butch and Gunther were fighting outside the ring. Butch dove off the announce table, Gunther moved out of the way which sent Butch crashing into McIntyre. Gunther and Butch got in the ring. McIntyre got on the ring apron to go in on Butch, but Sheamus knocked him off it. McIntyre headbutted Sheamus. Holland charged after McIntyre, but McIntyre sent him into the ring post. Sheamus hit McIntyre with the Brogue Kick. Gunther hit Butch with The Last Symphony for the win.
Winner: Gunther

After the match, McIntyre came flying in with a Claymore Kick. Sheamus moved out of the way and it hit Gunther. 

The KO Show: Sami Zayn

Kevin Owens asked Zayn if he got what he wanted. Owens said he wanted to come out together, but Zayn wanted separate entrances so the WWE Universe can hear both of their songs and cheer for both of them. Owens told Zayn he wanted his own pop, but it’s all good. Zayn said he did not want his own pop. Zayn asked if there was anymore backstage stuff they need to spill out here, or can they talk about WrestleMania. Zayn said he’s been talking so much about taking down The Bloodline, but after all these years from starting from nothing in Montreal, they are now on the verge of winning the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Championships together at WrestleMania. He reminded Zayn that after he was given the Honorary Use shirt by The Bloodline, he told him that he needed a new shirt. Owens pulled out a KO Mania goes Hollywood shirt. Owens said that’s the back of the shirt, but the MVP of the last year has been Zayn. So this year, it’s not KO Mania, it’s about what’s in front of the shirt. He handed the shirt to Zayn. On the front of the shirt, it said WrestleZaynia. As Zayn and Owens hugged, The Usos attacked them. They double superkicked Owens and gave the 1D to Zayn. They were going to continue to beat on Zayn until Owens came in with a chair which caused The Usos to leave the ring.
