Opening sequence.
Sami Zayn vs. The Miz
We look back at the end of Raw with the big brawl between Styles/Gallows/Anderson and Reigns/Usos, capped off by Reigns powerbombing AJ through the table.
Greetings From Puerto Rico.
Vaudevillains vs. Social Outcasts
Dallas/Axel here. Bo starts fast with a powerslam on English for two. Axel comes in to go after Gotch but gets backdropped out to the floor for the save. The Whirling Dervish ends Dallas at 1:51.
Post match Colin Cassady comes out to go after the Vaudevillains and cleans house before Axel gets in to call Gotch and English SAWFT. That earns him a much deserved East River Crossing and Cass shouts a lot.
We look back at Shane and Stephanie gaining power on Sunday and their first night of sharing power on Raw.
Natalya/Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte/Emma
Natalya finally sends Charlotte into the corner and makes the hot tag to Becky for some armdrags and dropkicks. The comeback is shortlived though as Becky is sent to the floor for a crash, allowing Charlotte to do her headscissor faceplants. Back from a break with Becky getting two off a rollup until a big boot puts her down again.
Zack Ryder vs. Rusev
Rusev and Lana do the Kalisto dance until Kalisto runs in for a corkscrew cross body before running away.
Fandango teaches Goldust to dance when R-Truth and Tyler Breeze come in. Goldust is having some issues but Truth says Fandango is the one off beat. A danceoff ensues but Fandango would rather have a tag match next week.
Usos vs. Karl Anderson/Luke Gallows
Roman Reigns/Usos vs. Karl Anderson/Luke Gallows/AJ Styles
AJ points at the title to end the show.
