Before the next match, King Corbin says he sees Daniel Bryan chomping at the bit, but SmackDown is his kingdom and things are done his way. He says the fans only like Daniel because they are jealous of his own success, and while Daniel and The Miz have a lot in common, Daniel would have had brain matter ripped out with his hair if he thinks he will beat him. He tells Daniel to step aside, saying he earned his opportunity when he beat Roman Reigns twice and that the fans should be begging for him to vanquish Bray, as only the most powerful, most fearful Superstar - him - should be champion. Corbin then says that while Daniel Bryan is a nice guy, he is no longer championship material, much like The Miz, who only plays an action hero. He says only he is good enough to beat Bray, then Roman Reigns shows up. Corbin falls out of his sedan suddenly, and after Corbin yells at his servants, he turns around only to be attacked by Roman Reigns. Corbin escapes through the crowd, and referees and officials have to keep Roman from chasing after him.

Big E says it is time for Braun to dance. The New Day's music plays, and Braun pushes both members of The New Day to opposite corners before dancing in the middle of the ring.

The Miz vs. Daniel Bryan ends in a double disqualification after King Corbin's servants attack both men. Backstage, King Corbin says the attack on both men is justice, saying the match should not have happened without him. He tells Braxton to save his questions for Roman Reigns, but Braxton says that Roman has been asked to leave the building. Corbin - having said he would not compete with Roman in the building earlier - says he will put himself in that triple threat match and win his opportunity at the Universal title. All the while, Miz and Daniel Bryan team up to attack Corbin and his servants backstage.

It's time for A Moment of Bliss. Tonight's guest is Lacey Evans. Lacey says she is proud of her daughter, who is a fighter just like her, then says that Sasha Banks crossed a line getting in her daughter's face last week, as "Mama Bear mode" came out. She says that her daughter means everything to her, and says that there is nothing that would have stopped her from protecting her daughter, stating that if she wasn't held back, she would have torn Sasha apart. She also says that she will not allow herself to be attacked by "two nasty things" who are incapable of being role models for anybody, then says she will get in the ring, for she is ready for a fight. When Dana Brooke is announced as Lacey Evans' tag team partner, however, Sasha Banks and Bayley show up with Dana Brooke to attack her, with Sasha calling Lacey a terrible tag team partner.
