Retribution messes up the Then, Now, Forever bit again as Mia Yim is mid-ring not named in a terrible-looking masks. She complains about being stepped up for an imaginary brass ring and a bald guy says they’ll drain the company of their lifeblood – the WWE Superstars.

King is replacing Joe this week and he talks about how did they get contracts. Sarah chats with The Mysterio Family and she asks how excited he is to see his son get a Championship Opportunity.

Retribution faces The Hurt Business in the main event.
Keith Lee is out to face Drew, who gets a sword slash before his theme now. They have a solid start to a good match before Orton hits Drew with a chair to the back and grinds it into the broken jaw and he punts Keith Lee.
