Earlier in the day, Adam Cole told McKenzie Mitchell that he’s not afraid of Karrion Kross. Keith Lee interrupted the interview and vowed to dethrone Cole before breaking Kross’ hourglass.

Sasha Banks and Bayley started strong, but a chokeslam from Tegan Nox turned the tides in favour of the challengers. Sasha Banks tried to fight back as she trapped Shotzi Blackheart in the Bank Statement, but the NXT Superstar shocked the champions by turning the move into the Cattle Mutilation. While the referee was stopping Tegan Nox from bringing a steel chair to the ring, Bayley entered the ring and helped Banks take control.
