Zayn says he was a kid with a dream, inspired by Mick Foley to become a wrestler and tonight, he will become WWE Intercontinental Champion.

The panel discusses the Miz vs. Sami Zayn match when the Miz & Maryse appears. The Miz talks about how Daniel Bryan has not been on his side, as he couldn’t even come to root for him tonight despite him representing SmackDown. He talks about wanting to be WWE Intercontinental Champion since he was a kid and tonight he will be victorious. After hearing his rant, the panel are unanimous in predicting a Miz victory tonight.

Becky Lynch tell Nikki Bella to watch her back tonight, as she doesn’t trust anyone in the match. Charlotte confronts them and claims she was ambushed last week on Smackdown. Nikki Bella can’t wait to smack that stupid look off her face and she promises to burn her kingdom down to the ground. Charlotte says she will have no problem putting Nikki back in a neck brace a second time.

Tom Phillips interviews WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens. Phillips tries to ease the tension by comparing the colors of their outfits but Kevin Owens claims he only put blue to copy the style of the Toronto Blue Jays so he can sell more merch tonight. He says Phillips ignored the presence of his best friend, so he calls in Chris Jericho to join the interview. Owens says this is the Kevin Owens show and the graphic appears on the screen. The first twitter question asks if Kevin Owens would wear Jericho’s scarf if he presented it to him, and Jericho immediately does so. They get asked about James Ellsworth and they claim he is a worm. Owens asks Phillips why he left Raw for Smackdown and he claims he got a new opportunity, but Owens claims they already had too many announcers. Owens and Jericho are asked about being sole survivors and they don’t care if they’re the sole survivors, as long as they survive. Owens is asked if Jericho wrote Owens’ name on the list and Jericho says the guy who asked that stupid question is now on the list. The production guy takes down the twitter handle before they can spell it, so now he joins the list as well.

Sole Survivors- Bayley and Charlotte *** ( Solid start to the show. First off, there were only two moments of dysfuction and both moments didn’t have any direct influence on the match, so I was happy about that. There were some communication issues which is to be expected but nothing horribly botch or ugly. The action was solid throughout the match, with Nia Jax looking like a monster throughout the match and Lynch got a nice boost thanks to tapping her out. I liked the idea of saving Bayley for the final portion of the match and giving her the big clutch victory to set her up as the next challenge for Charlotte. )

Winner and Still WWE Intercontinental Champion- The Miz ***1/2 ( This was a hell of a match but my god did that finish suck. Zayn’s selling off the injured leg was fantastic and the match was building to the moment where Zayn fought his way out of the Figure-4, which really got the crowd to a fever pitch. The ring bell distraction is beyong stupid and makes Zayn into a giant moron for falling for that trick, killing all the goodwill that was built up throughout the contest. )

Sole Survivors – Cesaro and Sheamus *** ( The number of men in this match caused a very chaotic and messy body of the match. There was just way too much going on but once they started trimming some of the fat, the match progessivly got better and the crowd was getting more into it. The final segment between the Usos, Cesaro and Sheamus was excellent and if those two teams had a straight up match it probably would have stolen the show. )

Winner by DQ and Still WWE Crusierweight Champion- Brian Kendrick **3/4 ( I was enjoying the match but man the crowd could not have cared less. I give these two props for going all out to try and get the crowd into it, but they were put in the death spot and the crowd treated it as such. Unfortunaly, right now with the state of the cruiserweight division, if they aren’t the opener of the PPV, they’re going to constantly have to deal with flat or dead crowds no matter how hard they tried. Another crappy finish BUT I give them props for having Corbin attack Kendrick first so they he got to lay out his rival AND cost him the match. It’s a nice little detail that WWE usually wouldn’t think through on an interference spot like that. )

Sole Survivors- Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton ***1/2 ( There’s going to be alot of arguements from fans over this one. They tried to stuff way too much storyline stuff into the match as many feared. Dean Ambrose getting eliminated first and causing damage to his own team going after Styles and alligning himself with Raw was incredbly stupid and there’s no incentive to cheer or like the guy from a character standpoint after this. This went way too long, as it dragged several times during the match after significant moments. That being said, the in-ring action for the most part was very good and this did have the feel of an epic civil war between the two brands with everyone fighting tooth and nail to the bitter end. Braun Strowman came across like a beast and they used Ellsworth perfectly in this match, getting Strowman eliminated without making him look like an idiot and getting killed by him in the aftermath. Shane did well in his role too, doing everything in his power to survive and just went he somehow got an advantage, he got killed taking one too many risks. Some people are going to hate this match, some people are going to love this. For me, I was incredibly entertained by it but it clearly had it’s faults, so I can see both sides of the arguement on this one. )

Video package for Lesnar/Goldberg airs.

Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman vs. Goldberg
Brock rams Goldberg into the corner but Goldberg shoves him away. Spear by Goldberg!!!!! A second one by Goldberg!!!! Jackhammer by Goldberg gets 3!!!!!
Winner- Goldberg NR ( I loved the booking of this so much. This is the ultimate feel good story. Goldberg returns to the ring to face the cocky, arrogant, unstoppable monster and he caught Lesnar with that one good shot and laid waste to the beast. Goldberg strategy was to go all in right from the start and it WORKED. You can get tons of mileagle out of Brock Lesnar becoming obsessed over the loss and leading to a rematch at WrestleMania. It was risky doing a short match like this after the hype but the crowd lost thier minds over it and the risk paid off. This was awesome. )
