Not walking with Elias
Elias was in the ring and blamed Jaxson Ryker for not doing what he said. They would’ve been tag team champions had he listened, but Ryker’s too dangerous.
He said he had no choice, and he said when he looked into Ryker’s eyes he saw the ghost of war, but not a man that would go to battle for him so he walked out on Ryker.
Ryker attacked Elias from behind, then threw his guitar out of the ring and stomped Elias down.

They started it off by running at Elias and Ryker nailed him with a clothesline and continued hammering on Elias and dominating early as he clotheslined Elias over the top rope to the floor.
Ryker kept after him, but Elias slammed his face into the stairs and headed into the ring.
Elias took control with some stomps and a axhandle off the ropes, and then hit a spine buster for a near pinfall.
Ryker fought back but ran into an inverted atomic drop, but hit a one armed power bomb and Elias slipped out of the ring and ran tot eh back for a count out loss.

WWE Championship contract signing
Drew McIntyre headed to the ring, and Bobby Lashley didn’t come out when he was supposed to, and McIntyre went on about what Lashley would say while Pearce and Deville looked annoyed.
McIntyre defended his multiple championship attempts by sharing a story about a Scottish king that finally freed Scotland from the English.
MVP appeared on the titantron and interrupted the proceedings and apologized as Lashley was fashionably late and they started the music.

Once in the ring, they took their seats and MVP congratulated McIntyre on manipulating his way into another championship match.
He asked how they would reward him for complying last week, and Lashley said when he loses to Lashley at HIAC he’ll never challenge him again.
McIntyre accepted and asked for them to face each other in HIAC, and Lashley accepted and they both signed.
McIntyre told him that he was told he would never be the same after his HIAC match, and he’s willing to go through all of that again to beat him and told Lashley to start praying.
McIntyre then broke the table in half with his sword.
Backstage, Nikki Cross said she made her choice for a partner, and it’s Asuka.
Ricochet vs. Humbert Carrillo with Sheamus at the announce desk
Sheamus interrupted everything before it got started and demanded to know where the justice is. Humberto and Ricochet faked attacked to send a skittery Sheamus to jump back like a frightened leprechaun.

Ricochet attacked Carrillo from behind and sent Carrillo to the floor before the match started.

Carrillo held onto the ropes and hit a springboard crossbody for a near pinfall.
Carrillo continued with some impressive moves for a pin attempt and pressed his advantage.
After exchanging suplex attempts on the ring apron, Carrillo hit Ricochet with a spinning kick and a diving shoulder block through the ropes.
Back in the ring, Carrillo went to the top rope to hit a missile dropkick for a pin attempt.
Ricochet hit a clothesline and then a gut wrench German Suplex for a pin attempt.
Both of them have tweaked their styles to add some solid brawling techniques to compliment their high flying abilities.
Ricochet hit a Spanish Fly off the apron to the floor in an awesome move that resembled a car crash that resulted in a double count out for a draw.
MVP’s sportsmanship
Backstage, the New Day were planning a trick when MVP approached Kingston and said he was impressed with his match last week and earlier tonight.
He said he was a Kingston fan and watched Kofi Mania take over the world and he was so proud of him he cried tears of joy.
MVP told him he lost last week because he’s not Bobby Lashley, and him shaking McIntyre’s hand made him look comfortable losing.
Kingston made a point of saying he does this for his friends and family, and MVO said Lashley fights for the WWE and the prestige. Did he make a point that’ll make Kingston think?
