(1) The Revival defeated Chad Gable & Bobby Roode when Scott Dawson used ropes as leverage to roll up Gable in a long but good match. Gable shined in this one and the crowd was loving him.

(2) Lacey Evans defeated Dana Brooke and Natalya in a women’s triple threat match. In the end, Lacey knocked into Natalya who was mid-sharpshooting Dana Brooke, Lacey then rolled up Dana Brooke for the win in a short match.

(3) Heavy Machinery defeated The Ascension when Otis pinned Viktor in match full of posing and stalling.

(4) Sasha & Sasha Bayley defeated The Riott Squad to retain the Women’s Tag Team Titles when Ruby was ejected leading to a distraction that allowed Bayley to hit a Bayley-to-Belly on Sarah Logan for the win. Another short match.

(5) Finn Balor defeated Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush in a handicap match to retain the Intercontinental Title. Balor hit the Coup de Grace on Lio Rush for the win.

-Intermission-

Elias sat mid-ring ready to perform until Apollo Crews interrupted. Elias said he knows why Apollo interrupted which was to perform with Elias. Elias then attacked Apollo from behind, but Apollo fended him off until Drew McIntyre attacked him on his way up the ramp. Drew said, “That’s how you make a statement” and then ran down Atlantic City, calling it a poor man’s Las Vegas and said he should have Seth Rollins’s opportunity at WrestleMania. He also mentioned he has no opponent tonight so he was going to take a page out of Seth’s playbook and issue an open challenge. Dean Ambrose’s music hits as he accepted the challenge.

(6) Drew Mcintyre defeated Dean Ambrose with a Claymore in a very short match.

(7) Braun Strowman defeated Baron Corbin in a no disqualification match. Strowman power-slammed Corbin through a table for the win and then signed autographs at ringside to end the show.

NOTES: “The Shield Returns” shirt were being sold at the merchandise table.
