Back from commercial, double lariat, Rollins and Punk both down and out. Tags made, Zayn and Breakker foil each other’s plans to just end it but Sami hits a big tornado DDT out of the corner. Bron is down and out in the corner, Paul Heyman trips Zayn up and deep in the back of the frame “Big” Bronson Reed jumps the barricade and pounces Punk through the barricade!

Chelsea Green and her Secret Hervice are interviewed backstage.
Green says she’s risen from the ashes, and she was in mourning but now it’s night and after she beats Zelina Vega she’ll have a second term as the first-ever greatest longest-reigning Women’s United States Champion.
They make their entrance to send us to break.
Back from commercial, we get a recap of Bronson Reed returning, wrecking CM Punk, and joining up with Seth Rollins’ merry men.
Chelsea Green vs. Zelina Vega (c) (WWE Women’s United States Championship)Feeling out, big back elbow from Vega, off the ropes, satellite headscissors, 619 ducked and Green hauls off with a right hand. Trading knees, action to the floor, Green powerbombs her onto the floor... SO CLOSE! Smashing Zelina’s face into the mat, rear chinlock applied, jawbreaker fights the champion out of it but Chelsea immediately knocks her down with a big boot!
Stomps in the corner, double jump Vader Bomb comes up empty, Vega on the comeback with some lariats and a back suplex, she kips up and she is fired up! Corner knees, up top and jockeying for position...
Zelina Vega wins by pinfall with an avalanche Code Red, retaining the WWE Women’s United States Championship.
Post-match, Chelsea is pouring blood from her nose as the Secret Hervice tend to her and we go to break.

John Cena (c) vs. R-Truth Ron Cena (WWE Undisputed Championship)Truth makes his entrance as Ron Cena and that sure pisses the champion off. He clobbers Ron out the gates, throwing him into the corner for big right hands, whip across, working him over. Truth cuts him off, shoulder block, shoulder block, fall-forward Blue Thunder Driver, “You can’t see me!,” Five Knuckle Shuffle, Attitude Adjustment... SO CLOSE!
STF applied but Cena gets the ropes promptly! John ready to use the title belt, R-Truth catches him short with a “what is going on with you, man” expression and Cena gives referee Jason Ayers the title... ONLY TO KICK R-TRUTH LOW! ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT! IT’S OVER!
John Cena wins by pinfall with an Attitude Adjustment, retaining the WWE Undisputed Championship.
Post-match, he blasts Truth in the face with the title belt and leaves!
Back from commercial, Jey Uso runs into John Cena backstage, champion to champion.
Cena observes that it’s been a while, and Uso reminds him that he eliminated him to win the Royal Rumble. John is glad he remembers the last time they saw each other and he’s looking forward to the next time he sees him, because there’s something about him being in one of the most prestigious families in wrestling and about to lose the title to Logan Paul.
He’s looking forward to leaving with the WWE Championship and seeing the World Heavyweight Championship left behind in the hands of a YouTuber.
Leilani Kai is shown in the crowd, as is Tatanka. (Buffalo!)
Damian Priest vs. Drew McIntyreJesse “the Body” Ventura is on commentary for this one.
McIntyre blindsides Priest as he tries to get into the cage and beats him down outside! Drew goes under the ring and grabs a couple chairs before throwing Damian inside and closing the door for the bell!
Damian with a right hand, trying to smash McIntyre’s face into the cage! Drew with some chops, trying to smash him into the steel and failing, Priest hits the reverse STO! McIntyre gets the better of him and we go to break!
Back from commercial, jockeying for position on the ropes, McIntyre claws at his face to block a Razor’s Edge, off the top, nobody home and he rolls through! Damian lands a Sick Kick, South of Heaven... NOPE! Back to fighting on the ropes, Priest trying to climb out, Drew superplexes him to the mat!
Counting down for Claymore, it connects... NOT ENOUGH! A little back and forth, Drew hits his own version of South of Heaven... STILL NO! Chair wedged in the corner, Damian set up next to it, charging in with Claymore but Priest sidesteps! Chair in hand, walloping Drew, horsecollaring him and spiking him with it throat-first, South of Heaven... NO GOOD!
Setting Drew up... CON-CHAIR-TO CONNECTS! Priest walks out the door but stops short on the stairs, giving McIntyre a long beat to give him a fair chance of getting up...
Damian Priest wins by escaping the cage through the door.
Post-match, Jesse Ventura rants, correctly, about how silly escaping through the door is as a finish to a steel cage match.
Back from commercial, we see Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham in the front row.
Jesse “the Body” Ventura and Joe Tessitore recap the show from the Okerlund Position.

Back from commerical, a pop-up Samoan drop gets Uso a nearfall! Jey pressing his attack, off the top, splash... JOHN CENA IS HERE AND HE PULLS THE REFEREE OFF THE COVER TO BEAT USO DOWN! Putting boots to Jey... CODY RHODES IS HERE TO MAKE THE SAVE! Right-hand jabs, drop down slap, inverted facelock... CROSS RHODES CONNECTS!
Paul slides back in with the brass knuckles, Cody ducks, Jey hits the spear! Up top, perching, diving splash, referee wakes back up...
Jey Uso wins by pinfall with the diving splash, retaining the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
Post-match, Rhodes gets on the mic and says John has ruined enough, he’s back and he’s ready to fight and he books a tag match, him and Jey against John and Logan, at Money in the Bank.
That’s the show, folks.
