The opening recap focuses on AJ Styles and the Band reuniting on Monday and Styles turning full heel.
Opening sequence.
Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte
Non-title. Becky sends her into the ropes to start before Charlotte reverses in the corner and grabs a neckbreaker. Dana offers a distraction and Charlotte kicks Becky in the face to put her on the floor as we take an early break. Back with Becky hitting a running forearm in the corner and getting two off the exploder suplex.
Post match Natalya comes out but Charlotte and Dana get away before they can be put in submissions.
Golden Truth vs. Dudley Boyz
Recap of Baron Corbin vs. Dolph Ziggler.
Dean Ambrose/Sami Zayn vs. Alberto Del Rio/Kevin Owens
Jack Swagger vs. Rusev
We look at Rollins and Reigns not fighting on Raw.
AJ Styles vs. Kofi Kingston
The Boom Drop makes a rare appearance and something like a knee drop to a standing AJ gets two. Styles is sent to the apron and Woods starts playing some trombone, causing AJ to miss the Phenomenal Forearm. The SOS gives Kofi two but the Club and New Day get into it at ringside. Kofi dives over the top to take out Gallows, only to have AJ score with the Pele coming back in. The Styles Clash gives AJ the pin at 13:35.
