4.) Backstage segment with AJ Styles, Vince McMahon, and Shane McMahon

As reported earlier by the Inquisitr, AJ Styles commented on hitting Vince McMahon last week and said he would do it again. In this segment, Styles tells Vince that they will see the “real AJ” tonight and even threatens the WWE Chairman.

This leads to Shane getting in Styles’ face and Vince telling his son he really wants to see the real AJ Styles.

5.) In-ring segment with Rusev, Lana, and Shinsuke Nakamura

Lana and Rusev are out for a United States Championship celebration, but Nakamura attacks from behind. Lana jumps on his back and Rusev kicks him, but it takes out Lana. Nakamura then hits Rusev with Kinshasa and leaves them out cold in the ring.

6.) Sonya Deville defeated Naomi

Naomi was supposed to face Mandy Rose, but she never came out to the ring. As the match went on, Rose distracted Naomi which allowed Deville to pick up the win. The distraction was Rose telling Naomi she sent a photo to her husband Jimmy Uso and it was shown on the big screen.
