We return to see The Colon’s already in the ring. Tyler Breeze comes out first, dressed as a woman, then comes Fandango, still dressed as a 50’s detective. Why these two aren’t just called The Fashion Police by now is beyond me.
Breezango Vs. The Colons
We start with Tyler Breeze and Primo, and the latter gets things going with a big left hand jab to Breeze and tears off the dress/wig. Breeze with a quick dropkick to Primo, tag to Fandango and they hit a double elbow drop combo.
Fandango squirts Primo with a water gun to avoid a sunset flip, which gets JBL talking for the next several minutes. Breeze then sprays Epico with a water gun as well and both Colons are tossed to the outside as we head to a break.
*Commercial Break*
We return to see Epico grinding Fandango down in the centre of the ring with a headlock. Fandango looks for a quick roll-up but is unsuccessful. Epico hits a flying forearm to Fandango, then knocks Breeze off of the apron. Epico lands a slam for a two count, then tags Primo.
Killer fashion sense AND a killer dropkick! @MmmGorgeous #SDLive pic.twitter.com/7pVg2jQRYv

Fandango makes some separation between him and Primo but Breeze still isn’t on the apron. Reverse Russian leg-sweep from Primo gets another two count. Primo slams Fandango into the turnbuckle, then lifts him onto the top rope. Primo looks for a superplex but gets punched until Fandango hits a sunset flip powerbomb from the top rope.
Both men are down and crawling for the tag. Breeze reappears from under the ring, dressed as a janitor again. Breeze clears the ring of Epico and Primo. Primo tries to bring the mop into the ring and attack Breeze but Fandango stops him, allowing Breeze to hit the Unprettier for the win!
Winners: Breezango
Renee Young is backstage with AJ Styles. She asks how AJ feels about facing Dolph Ziggler tonight, ahead of his Money in the Bank match. AJ says tonight is his chance to gain some momentum, which will help him climb that ladder and win the briefcase. Ziggler appears and says he has won the briefcase before and will do so again. He asks AJ if he wants to go right now, to which P1 takes off his shirt and gets ready to fight but Ziggler walks off.
YESSSSSSsssssssss!!!! This rules. https://t.co/TxFrmP10Ub

Randy Orton responds, up next!
*Commercial Break*
Former WWE Champion Randy Orton heads to the ring and grabs a mic. He introduces himself for those “living under a rock” for the last 17 years. Orton brings up his family history in wrestling and how “this is in my blood.” He says if his grandfather was here he would slap him in the face for losing to a guy like Jinder Mahal.
Orton says Mahal thinks he has earned the right to respect. He says the only thing Mahal has earned is a good ole fashioned “Orton family ass kicking.” Orton brings up Money in the Bank being in his hometown and how winning is the only option. Just like his grandfather, he’s ready to stop talking and will become Champion for the 14th time. Orton drops the mic and gets up on the corner to pose.
#TheViper @RandyOrton says he’s DONE talking and READY to get back in the ring with the man who dethroned him, @JinderMahal! #SDLive pic.twitter.com/FGWsgizUY3

WWE Champion Jinder Mahal’s music hits. Orton waits but no sign, until Mahal shows up on the screen. He says Orton is a symbol of the past, just like the country of America. “Behold the present. Behold the future. Behold the new WWE Champion, Jinder Mahal.” The Singh Brothers applaud their Champion.
The video of Mahal ends and Orton gets back up on the corner and poses.

AJ tries to hit Ziggler with a clothesline but eats a knee instead. Ziggler attempts a Superplex off the top rope but AJ wriggles out of it and trips him onto the ropes.
