When Mandy declines, Kay Lee Ray threatens to bash her brains in with her baseball bat. Mandy tells her to put the bat down. She does. Gigi and Jacy leave. Kay Lee Ray says she is the longest reigning women's champion of the modern era, and if anyone deserves a title shot, it is her. Mandy mentions her accolades before becoming NXT Women's Champion, something women want to be and something men wish they were with. Kay Lee Ray says this is nothing compared to in-ring skills, saying she was dominating a country for 629 days while Mandy was sliding at WrestleMania and "sucking off Otis' face." Mandy says she is now everything WWE wants and needs in a women's champion, then tells Kay Lee Ray that all the talent in the world will never replace what she has.

Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams head to the ring. Trick Williams says that Cameron Grimes is not ready for the "A-Champion," and Carmelo Hayes says that while the old him would verbally put Grimes in the grave because the fans do not care about Grimes, the new him sees Cameron Grimes sees him as a threat. He says he is going harder in the gym, putting more time in the ring and hanging out with OlliJay more because that is what the "A-Champion" does, because he sets the bar on the show and he is always looking down on Cameron Grimes. Cameron Grimes shows up and says he had to come out here after saying the fans don't care about him, saying that the fans are chanting for him. Trick Williams threatens to beat Grimes up, then makes fun of his and Cameron Grimes' hair and hanging out with OllyJay with Spongebob Squarepants jokes. Trick Williams threatens to beat Grimes up again, but Grimes asks who he is fighting.
