2. Elias defeated Apollo Crews. Titus O’Neil tried to taunt Elias by playing banjo before the match. Elias won with the Drift Away.

– Enzo Amore complained about Kurt Angle not firing Kalisto for putting his hands on him. Angle explained that Kalisto signed a cruiserweight contract after Enzo’s “no contact” clause, and that Enzo would defend the Cruiserweight Championship against Kalisto in a lumberjack match later in the show.

3. Braun Strowman defeated Matt Hardy. Strowman pinned Hardy with a running powerslam. After the match, Strowman tried to carry Hardy to the back, but was stopped by The Shield. They brawled, culminating in Strowman being put through the announce table with a triple powerbomb. Michael Cole is insisting this is called the “Shield Bomb.”

– The Miz quoted The Shield saying they could defeat any “four, five or six” guys to get Kurt Angle to make the six-man tag at TLC a handicap match, and somehow added Braun Strowman to his team.
