If you want another title shot, you’re going to have to go through all of Damage CTRL. Charlotte Flair and Shotzi came to the ring. Charlotte said Bianca isn’t the only one coming for IYO and I would love to go through all of Damage CTRL. The two teams brawled with each other with Bianca’s team getting the better of them.
Damage CTRL saw Bayley backstage and IYO asked where she was. Bayley said maybe if I knew you were going out there, things would have ended differently. Dakota said Kairi has a match against Bianca tonight. Nobody knows her more than you so Kairi would appreciate your help.

In the back, Paul Heyman asked Nick Aldis if he invited Randy Orton here tonight. Aldis told Heyman that I intend to sign Randy Orton to a SmackDown contract tonight and if I have to offer up the entire Bloodline to make it happen, then so be it. What are you going to do about it? Paul Heyman said anything it takes.
Backstage, when Butch asked why Ridge Holland walked out on their match last week, Butch said I don’t know and I don’t care. I have to focus on myself and I will fight anyone. Pretty Deadly showed up and told Butch his career is at a dead end. Butch punched them, but Pretty Deadly ganged up on him and threw him into the equipment backstage.
In the back, Santos Escobar said Rey Mysterio turned his back on the LWO when he chose Carlito over me. Now my own brothers Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro are still blinded by their hero and they can’t see that Rey is going to do the same thing to them. Cruz is still recovering from the last time he tried to stand up for Rey, and I’m going to put Joaquin on the shelf right now.

Logan Paul said he got together with Nick Aldis and there will be a tournament to decide who will challenge him for the Unites States Championship. It will feature Santos Escobar, Dragon Lee, Bobby Lashley, Karrion Kross, Austin Theory, Grayson Waller, Kevin Owens, and a star from NXT. Kevin Owens came out and told Logan he’s going to win the tournament and your days as U.S. Champion is numbered. Austin Theory and Grayson Waller came out. Theory told Owens that he’s in the ring with Logan Paul who can knock him out, so his days of punching people in the face are over. Owens punched Theory in the face.
Kevin Owens vs Grayson Waller (w/ Austin Theory)
