After the match Carmella and R-truth came down to ringside. R-truth got in the ring with Crews and Gable. Truth went to run away, but then EC3, Ali, Matt Hardy, Bo Dallas, and Curtis Axel jumped in the ring and surrounded R-Truth. A big in ring melee happened and a few people tried pinning R-Truth, but one of the other wrestlers kept breaking it up. Everyone got into a circle with R-Truth in the middle, and he squeezed out of the ring and ran away with everyone else in pursuit.

-R-Truth came out with Carmella. Apollo Crews, Chad Gable, EC3, Ali, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel, and Matt Hardy ran out to try to win the 24/7 Title. They surrounded Truth. Everyone fought and some got near falls on Truth with others breaking up the pins in the scrum. Truth slipped away covertly and ran away with Carmella.

(7) Bayley beat Alexa in 12:00 to retain the Smackdown Title with a Bayley-to-Belly. Bayley celebrated with fans including giving away hugs. Then the Happy Birthday song played and fans sang for her.

(8) Kofi Kingston beat Dolph Ziggler in about 20:00 to retain the WWE Title after a Trouble in Paradise.

FINAL NOTES: Roman Reigns was the most over… All of the top was tarped off maybe 40 percent was sold. I paid $20 for my ticket and got good seats where camera side would be. The start time was 7:30 p.m. and it ended at 10:15 p.m.
