Adam Pearce is walking in the back and Kayla Braxton ambushes him to ask about the participants in the battle royal.  He says once he gets the final confirmation, he will post it outside his office.  Kayla asks about the rumors surrounding Brock Lesnar.  We have a video package to remind us what Brock did to Adam.

Adam says he hasn't heard any changes to Brock's suspension but stranger things have happened.  Think about everything that Brock did, Brock is a menace.  Adam says he would be shocked if that list was lifted any time soon.

Michael Cole is in the ring with Charlotte Flair.

Cole asks if Charlotte is disappointed about her loss.  Charlotte says she is only disappointed about the horrible officiating.  Everyone saw it.  Becky won by blatantly cheating.  Congratulations to Becky, she won the way I thought she would.  Becky got lucky.  That match proved that Becky is everything she said about her.  Becky knows that Charlotte is the better woman.  Cole asks what is next for Charlotte.  Charlotte says she is still the most dominant woman in sports entertainment.

Toni Storm makes her way to the ring.  She says she didn't realize how well she predicted.  You were obsessed with Becky and you lost.  Now you are going ot come after me because I was willing to go after the high and mighty Charlotte Flair.  Toni says she figures she would make it easy so she is right here.

Charlotte says she barely knows that Toni exists.  There is a reason why I wipe my boots before I walk into the ring.  There are levels and I am on a different level.  How would you like me to embarrass you tonight by beating you to a pulp or would you rather me do it like this?  

Charlotte misses a punch and Charlotte is sent to the floor.  Toni goes to the floor and Charlotte throws a pie in Toni's face.  Charlotte hits Toni with another pie.

Sasha asks if Sonya is jealous of Naomi?  

Sasha mentions that Sonya is wearing a suit and Sonya says that must make her the boss.  She tells Sasha if she likes Naomi so much, they can be a team and face Natalya and Shayna Baszler.

We are back with a Xia Li video where she talks about remembering his face and he picked on her older brother for weeks.  Her pacifist brother who was too good for this violent war.  She says she hates vultures.  Their confidence grows like mold on dirty dishes.  She says she hates vultures.
