Eddie Kingston and Ortiz head to the ring. Eddie says that they have been seeing The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) beating people up and mentions them laying out Ortiz, then says that he wants to fight them right now before calling them out. The House of Black appear on the video screen. Malakai Black says "all in due time," then says that if the enemy of his enemy is his friend, and the friend of his enemy is influenced by him, would he be his enemy, too. Eddie Kingston and Ortiz try to figure out what Malakai Black meant by that, and are confused.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Daniel Garcia and Sammy Guevara. Daniel Garcia admits he does not like Sammy Guevara, but if Chris Jericho wants them to be together, he will make an effort.
