The Miz makes his entrance with The Miztourage. The Miz says he hates Pittsburgh, but the show must go on. Miz welcomes them to Miz TV. This show is all about what’s buzz-worthy. Nothing has people buzzing more than Pittsburgh’s own Kurt Angle revealing he has an illegitimate son. Without further adieu, his guest at this time is Jason Jordan.

Jason Jordan comes out with new music and much like Big Cass’, it’s really bad. Miz says he’s story reads like a movie of the week. He finds out he’s adopted and Kurt Angle, an Olympic hero and Jordan’s hero, is his father. How does he feel? Miz quickly cuts him off. Miz asks how it feels to have the people boo him. Jordan says people will boo or cheer. That’s cool. They both know that when it comes to boos, Miz is the expert on them. Miz says when it comes to RAW, he is indeed an expert.

Jordan looked impressive in his debut last week. Miz says he’s very much like his father. Miz offers him a proposition to guide his career. Miz is offering him the opportunity of a lifetime. Jordan can join The Miztourage. Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel try to welcome him over. Jordan declines. Miz says he’s done it all, including main eventing WrestleMania. When you main event WrestleMania, you are bigger than every single person in the locker room. In the locker room, vultures will try to leach off his newfound lineage. Miz can make him a success inside and outside the ring. Jordan needs his help. Jordan appreciates the offer, but he passes anyway.

Miz sarcastically says he doesn’t need the Intercontinental Champion when his father hands him all the opportunities. Jordan made it clear he doesn’t want anything handed to him. Miz mocks him and tells him he’s foolish. This company will chew you up and spit you out. Jordan says he’d rather be chewed up and spit out rather than associate with someone like The Miz. Miz says he’s a success and a champion whereas Jordan latches onto an old Olympian. Jordan’s father is an old jock that’s washed up and made horrible decisions. Angle wasted the best years of his life. It’s no wonder he’s from Pittsburgh because he’s sad and broken down pining for glory days that are never coming back.

Jordan says Miz can say what he wants about him, but if he says one more thing about Angle, he’ll regret it. The Miztourage step between them, but Miz tells them to back off. Miz tries sneak attack him, but Jordan hits him with a belly-to-belly overhead suplex into The Miztourage. Jordan then leaves the ring.

We get a promo from Roman Reigns, who says for months Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe have tried to break him down. He sent Strowman to hell once, so he’ll send him back again. As for Samoa Joe, if it weren’t for distractions he’d be standing tall. He beat The Undertaker, so this is his yard. He’ll remind everyone who he is. Then he’ll walk out of SummerSlam as the new Universal Champion.

Seth Rollins will be in action against Sheamus, next.

*Commercial Break*

Sheamus Vs. Seth Rollins

Sheamus powers Seth into the corner as the bell rings, then they break apart. After another lock-up, Sheamus hits a shoulder tackle. Rollins applies a headlock after a series of reversals, then kicks Sheamus on the gut and dropkicks his head.

Seth knocks Sheamus from the ring and looks for a suicide dive but Cesaro distracts him for a second. Seth then goes for the suicide dive but Sheamus coutners with a punch. Sheamus lifts Seth and fires him into the barricade as we head to a break.

*Commercial Break*

We come back from the break to see Sheamus hit Rollins with a rolling senton off the second rope, but Rollins kicks out. Rollins snaps Sheamus off the top rope before the 10 Beats can be hit. Rollins goes for a springboard, but Sheamus counters into an Irish Curse backbreaker for a near fall. Sheamus shoulders him in the corner before diving off the top rope, but Rollins moves. Rollins hits a reverse STO into the turnbuckle.

Rollins punches away at him before Sheamus connects with a brutal forearm. Rollins then knocks him out of the ring and hits a suicide dive. Rollins hits a springboard clothesline followed by a Sling Blade. Rollins goes to the top rope and knocks Cesaro off the apron. Sheamus knees Rollins, but Rollins comes back with a roll-up for the win!

Winner: Seth Rollins

Cesaro attacks Rollins from behind and checks on Sheamus. Rollins attacks Cesaro, so Sheamus makes the save. They start to double-team Rollins. The crowd is chanting, “Dean.” They hit a super White Noise. Referees run down to help. A “We want Ambrose” chant fires up, but he doesn’t come out.

Sheamus and Cesaro go to leave, but they get back in the ring and attack. Dean Ambrose finally runs down and makes the save. They soon overwhelm Ambrose, and Cesaro hits the Gotch Neutralizer. Sheamus and Cesaro pose in the ring and go to leave, but Ambrose invites them to give him more. Cesaro attacks Ambrose and chokes him with his t-shirt. Sheamus then levels him with a Brogue Kick. Sheamus and Cesaro pose again and leave the ring.

Samoa Joe talks about the main event tonight. Most competitors sacrifice their entire lives and don’t come near the Universal Title. Joe has come within inches. No one has dominated Roman Reigns like him. As for Braun Strowman, he stuck his nose in his business, so he has to pay.

WWE honors Special Olympian Justin Jones, who is sitting at ringside for this event.

*Commercial Break*

Bray Wyatt comes out to a sea of shining fireflies. Wyatt says there is no escape for you or your children and certainly not for Finn Bálor. No mortal man can escape darkness. Everyone is held down by humanity’s shackles trying to cope with pain. They’re pitiful. Pittsburgh is pitiful. They’re trying to be something they’re not, but they can’t hide from him. He is Bray Wyatt, and he is everywhere.

Wyatt is there for the sins and when they proclaim to be part of the Bálor Club. They think they can vicariously live through Bálor. They think their lives will be special. Bálor is an ordinary man doing extraordinary things. They foolishly rejoice when he rises through the ashes. Not him. Wyatt sees Finn Bálor for what he truly is: the putrid shell of a man that never was. Bálor exists off borrowed time like them. They believe nothing can stop them. Wyatt falls down laughing. How did it feel last week when he took their hero and twisted his body to turn him into a mangled heap of broken promises? Did it hurt? Did they travel down the path of decayed hope or did they see the world for how it is? When Bray Wyatt knocks you down, there’s no return or escape. Wyatt bows.

The lights go out and we hear Finn’s heartbeat music. Finn Bálor is standing right behind Wyatt when the lights come on! Bálor has his back to him. Wyatt says he likes this. Wyatt goes to attack him, but Bálor takes him out with an overhead kick out of the ring. Bálor baseball slides him and dropkicks him into the barricade. Wyatt escapes through the crowd.

Braun Strowman says most so called men like to settle their differences over the phone, behind a keyboard, or in a sitdown. Not him. He causes chaos and goes further than most imagine. Tonight he wants to hurt Roman Reigns again. As for Samoa Joe, Reigns tried to bury him in four tons of twisted metal. What can Joe do to him? Tonight, he’ll destroy them because he wants Brock Lesnar for himself. He’ll prove he’s not just a monster among men – he’s a champion among men.

The triple threat match is next!

*Commercial Break*
