Despite being attacked backstage, Cass made his way to the ring with Enzo. Cass did work clearing the ring before staggering around and tagging in Enzo. Enzo did his best to hold off Gallows and Anderson, but the duo hit the Magic Killer for the win. As Gallows and Anderson beat down Enzo following the match, Big Show made the save. Big Cass came to as Enzo hugged Big Show in the center of the ring. It appeared WWE was teasing a split yet again.

- Neville attacked Rich Swann before the match could start, locking in the Rings of Saturn. Neville then called out the Cruiserweight division, specifically Akira Tozawa.
Heath Slater and Rhyno def. The Miz and Bear
Miz came down to the ring without a partner, so the bear from last week's celebration came to his aide. The bear gained momentum and tagged Miz in, only for the Intercontinental Champion to attack him. Miz ripped off the head of the bear and it was another no-name guy. The bear jumped back into the ring later in the match to hit Dirty Deeds on Slater. The bear ripped off his own head to show himself as Dean Ambrose. Miz tried to escape and knocked Maryse off the apron. She limped to the back, Miz took a Dirty Deeds DDT and Ambrose pulled Slater over the champ for the pinfall.

- Finn Balor vignette aired. Michael Cole talked him up as a former champion and sure-to-be future champ.
Sasha Banks, Mickie James and Dana Brooke def. Emma, Nia Jax and Dana Brooke via submission

- Alexa Bliss is confronted by Nia Jax, who says Mickie James and Dana Brooke are the problems, not her. James and Brooke hit the ring, followed by a returning Emma and eventually Sasha Banks, all staking their claim for the Raw Women's Championship. Banks lays out Bliss before a commercial break.
- Miz asked Heath Slater backstage to join his entourage and leave Rhyno. Slater said he wants a shot at the Intercontinental Championship and Miz agreed...one day. Rhyno got angry and said for Miz to find a tag partner because they'll match up later in the show.

- Matt and Jeff Hardy cut a backstage promo on Cesaro and Sheamus, noting they're ready to take back the Raw Tag Team titles.

- Promo hyping up Cedric Alexander is shown. Backstage segment between Noam Dar, Alicia Fox and Alexander set up for a match after the commercial break.
- Kurt Angle confronted Miz for interfering in Ambrose's match. Miz complained that Angle was too focused on the "dirt" someone has on him, which the GM took offense to.

- Another vignette for the rebranded Goldust is shown
