THE GRAYSON WALLER EFFECT.
Grayson Waller welcomes the WWE fans and also introduced his guest, the New United Champion Rey Mysterio and Santo Escobar. After a congratulation to the new champion, Waller tried to create a problem among the L.W.O by asking several undermining questions which Escobar was quick to counter.
However, Austin Theory the former United Champion interrupted Escobar and promise to regain his title back because he was played into accepting Rey instead of Escobar for the title match.
Adam Pearce, the WWE official tried to explain to Theory why he accepted the match, when L.A Knight interrupted all of them before issuing his own challenge to Theory for the number one contender for the United State champion which Pearce made official.
L.A. KNIGHT vs. AUSTIN THEORY.
Before the match, The Miz walked to the ring to distract Knight which allowed Theory to attack and gain the upper hand at the early stage.
Though Theory was trying to end the contest faster, Knight fought back and was on a verge of winning when The Miz got on the apron. Knight try to chase Miz when Theory rolled up Knight for the win.
WINNER: AUSTIN THEORY.
BIANCA BELAIR & CHARLOTTE FLAIR vs. BAYLEY & IYO SKY.
Flair and Belair looked sharp early, but a dropkick to the back of Belair’s leg and Flair awkwardly landing on her ankle stunted the momentum that the two Superstars had built.
After absorbing the brunt of a beatdown, Flair finally managed to tag in Belair who came in and a K.O.D. finisher on Bayley was enough to end the match.
WINNER: BIANCA BELAIR & CHARLOTTE FLAIR.
