We cut to a video package runs highlighting last week’s Smackdown Live show where Jinder Mahal was making fun of Nakamura. Back live, Renee Young is in the ring and she introduces Shinsuke Nakamura. The fans are loving the artist.
Renee says that in the past few weeks, people think that Jinder has crossed the line. Have Jinder’s comments got to him? Nakamura says sticks and stones may break his bones but words will never hurt him. He says the greatest fear of all is the fear of the unknown but Jinder will know when he beats him and becomes the new WWE champion.
Jinder’s music hits and the Singh brothers come out. They introduce Jinder Mahal. Mahal attacks Nakamura from behind. Nakamura gets up and starts fighting back. The Singh brothers get in the ring but Nakamura takes them out. Nakamura takes Mahal out again but the Singh brothers hold Nakamura and Mahal takes Nakamura out as all three men start beating down on him. Mahal delivers the Khalass as he stands over Nakamura with the WWE belt.

We return to see Kanellis already in the ring and then out comes the Glorious One!
Bobby Roode Vs. Mike Kanellis
Mike Kanellis is in the ring as Bobby Roode’s music hits. Roode goes to pose for the fans but Kanellis attacks him with right hands. Kanellis poses for the fans, turns around and a spine buster by Bobby Roode. Bobby with a pose and the Glorious DDT and gets the 3 count!
Winner: Bobby Roode
After the match, Ziggler comes out on stage and says that he’s working on an entrance for their Hell in a Cell PPV on Sunday. Sirens go out in the arena but Ziggler says not that. He has another idea. Roode is seen standing as Ziggler stars throwing confetti and plays instruments down to the ring. He even grabs a horn. Ziggler asks the fans if they are excited. He gets in the ring and he tells Roode that he thinks his entrance is everything. He congratulates him on finally finding a way into the WWE. Ziggler says on Sunday he will show fans an entrance they have never seen before. He says he will expose Roode for what he is. Nothing more than an entrance. And that is all he will ever be. Ziggler throws the microphone and leaves.
Roode grabs the microphone and says he thought Ziggler’s entrance was horrible, just terrible. He’s doing it all wrong, it should be like this…
