– SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Bludgeon Brothers defeated The Usos and New Day to retain their titles

Harper and Rowan won by hitting an assisted powerbomb on one of the Usos. The match went around 10 minutes and nothing of much note happened, but it was fun.

– NXT Champion Aleister Black defeated Alexander Wolfe to retain his title

Black connected with the Black Mass to retain. This was fairly short, going under 10 minutes.

– United States Champion Jeff Hardy defeated Rusev (w/ Aiden English) to retain his title

Hardy won with the Twist of Fate and Swanton Bomb in about 10 minutes.

At one point, Rusev took off his T-shirt to reveal a Real Madrid shirt (the soccer team that he supports), which drew heat because Liverpool are playing Real Madrid in the Champions League final. He kept picking it up and taunting the crowd.

– Andrade “Cien” Almas defeated Sin Cara

This was essentially a squash match. Sin Cara got some offense in, but it was all about Almas. He won with the hammerlock DDT.

– Tyler Bate, Mark Andrews & Wolfgang defeated James Drake, Sam Gradwell & Dan Moloney

Trent Seven was advertised for this but was replaced with Andrews. At the end of a standard, short match, Bate hit the Tyler Driver ’97 to win.

– Daniel Bryan defeated The Miz

Bryan was very over, while Miz worked the crowd well as he played the heel. The match went for over 20 minutes, was definitely the best of the night, and was pay-per-view quality. Bryan won with the running knee.

– Big Cass defeated Tye Dillinger

Cass picked up the win with a big boot. It went about five to seven minutes, with Cass selling the attack from Bryan on SmackDown this week. Despite that, he still won with ease.

– Asuka, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch & Naomi defeated SmackDown Women’s Champion Carmella, Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville & Lana

Charlotte vs. Carmella was advertised, but they ended up being added to this tag match. Asuka submitted Lana in roughly 10 minutes.

– WWE Champion AJ Styles, Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson defeated Shinsuke Nakamura, Cesaro & Sheamus

This started as a singles match between Styles and Nakamura. They wrestled for about five minutes before making their way to the stage. Cesaro and Sheamus came out and attacked Styles, and it was three-on-one until Gallows and Anderson made the save.

Styles challenged the heels to a six-man tag after the babyfaces cleaned house. Styles pinned Sheamus with the Phenomenal Forearm after about 15 minutes.
