The commentators present us with the map, but Corbin ends up going over the barricade to attack McAfee. Security arrives to separate them…before Happy Corbin kicks him in the private parts…ouch!
– Backstage Kayla Braxton is with Theory claiming he will become United States Champion for the second time at SummerSlam. Everyone’s jealous of him, but that won’t stop him from cash-in tomorrow night. Brock Lesnar put an F5 on him last week, but that won’t stop him. The Bloodline attacked him, but that won’t stop him. No one will be able to stop him from cash-in and going to Cardiff to make Drew McIntyre his punching bag.

Sonya Deville arrives and recalls that Ronda Rousey attacked her following being beaten by Raquel Rodriguez last week.
– Back in the ring, Shotzi laughs and even before finishing her first sentence, the music of Ronda Rousey cuts her off then the former champion goes to the ring to attack Shotzi. Rousey takes the microphone and says people are complaining regarding not being in the title match. She asks Liv Morgan to come to show why they are the ones who will fight for the title at SummerSlam.

– The Street Profits then the Usos make their entrance. Jeff Jarrett (special referee for their match at SummerSlam) also gets in the ring and says he has a few words to say to both teams. He thinks it’s a good idea to get them together tonight to clear things up. He takes his job as a referee very seriously. Both teams ask what would be considered a disqualification. Jeff Jarrett replies that he is not there to limit them, he is there to let them run wild. He has a mission: to do the pinfall when there are two shoulders on the ground.
A fight breaks out between the two teams, but Jeff Jarrett ends up taking a Superkick from Jey Uso by mistake! The Usos feel bad and Jarrett pushes them away as he gets up. Angelo Dawkins knocks The Usos out of the ring and then Montez Ford jumps over the top rope to land on the champions.

We’ll be done with Brock Lesnar, once and for all…. Brock Lesnar’s music sounds and he enters!
