Commissioner Stephanie McMahon and General Manager Mick Foley are in the ring at the start of the show. They bring out Samoa Joe so he can sign his Raw contract, and Mick Foley isn't as thrilled as Stephanie about Joe being on the red brand. Joe says he has waited 18 years to get into a WWE ring, and puts the entire Raw locker room on notice before saying he will beat down and destroy everyone's heroes over and over again, that he is here and there is nothing anybody can do about it. Roman Reigns shows up and tells Joe that if he wants to make threats, he can make threats to him, then introduces himself before telling Joe that he is in his yard as soon as he signs the contract and that he has two choices: shutting his mouth or having Roman cave it in for him. Foley puts a stop to an inevitable brawl by putting both Joe and Roman in a match tonight.

Jericho says he will still be United States champ after winning tonight, then says he has a bone to pick with Tom Brady of the New England Patriots for stealing his nickname of "Greatest of All Time." Jericho then says he has a big match for the United States title at Fastlane: him vs. Kevin Owens, title vs. title, then but Owens says he is not sure if he is up to it. Suddenly, Goldberg shows up and tells Jeri-KO they have two choices: step aside and live, or take him on two-on-one. Goldberg then says that last week, Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman challenged him to one last match at WrestleMania, and that he's never been one to turn down a fight and that he accepts their challenge. Owens says that Goldberg vs. Lesnar will be "a perfect undercard match" for "KO-Mania 2," then asks Goldberg if he knows why he's the longest-reigning Universla title, and Goldberg says it's because he hasn't faced him, and challenges him for the title at Fastlane. Jericho says Goldberg can't just interrupt them and make matches, and threatens to put him on The List when Goldberg takes The List and Jericho's pen and puts his own name on The List to spite Jericho. Jericho then tells Goldberg he's got his Universal title match against Jericho. Owens isn't too thrilled about this.
