Rollins came out first. ESPN's Michelle Beadle and Bill Simmons (a long time wrestling fan) was shown in the crowd. Ambrose then came out. We have heel and babyface lumberjacks and they are on either side but they are selling they have issues with both guys due to the Shield running roughshod and they have shown that early on. ... The first big spot saw Ambrose Rollins onto the lumberjacks and wipes them out. They fought on the floor and the Jacks tried to break them up. Rollins got away and ran at Ambrose but Dean backdropped him over the barricade. Dean did a tope onto the Jacks and then wiped out more of them as he chased Rollins in the crowd. The Jacks ain't doing their jobs as these guys are fighting up the steps in the crowd. Kane stormed out and told the Jacks to go get them. Rollins was about to powerbomb Deam from the second level when the Jacks broke it up. The Jacks carried Dean to the rings when Rollins decided to just leave. But Big E, Star Dust, R Truth, The Usos and more said no way and brought him back. As they got to ringside, Ambrose came off of the top and wiped them all out on the floor. Great stuff. The crowd was going nuts when they two got back in the ring. Ambrose hit an insane clothesline and got a two. It was SICK. The crowd was chanting that it was awesome and they were right. Ambrose used Rollins kick to the head on him for a pin attempt but Kane broke it up. Star Dust got in his face and it turned nuts as all of the Jacks came in. Rowan and Harper were left with Ambrose. He got rid of them but Rollins came in and used the briefcase from behind for the win. ... Great stuff. Loved it. WWE really must want you to renew the Network because this show has been awesome so far. I hope I didn't jinx it.

They recapped the Chris Jericho-Bray Wyatt feud. Looks like they are up next.

Bray Wyatt says I am here. They had the fans with the cell lights on. Cool entrance. Bray has on a leather, psycho killer apron and green pants, like he is a Hannibal Lechter like butcher. Jericho had a good entrance as well.

Jericho was in control early on. But Bray was laughing while it was going on and then he dumped Chris to the floor and went to work on him, including blasting him into the ring steps. Wyatt took him back in the ring and some fans sang his song. Bray did a methodical beatdown on Jericho and Y2J tried to fight back. Jericho finally hit a forearm to the head an an enziguiri but only got a one count. Jericho came off the top but missed and got pasted by a right hand and a senton for a two. Bray ran into the corner but Jericho hit a dropkick for a two count. Bray got a two with a uranage and then laid down the blows. Bray went for Sister Abigail but got rolled up for a two. Jericho locked on the Walls Of Jericho. Bray powered up and made it to the ropes. Bray hit a DDT on the apron and got a two. ... Bray dragged him to the corner as there were dueling chants. Jericho hit a rana from the top and got a two. Jericho has a nasty welt/upper leg on his left hip. ... Wyatt ran into a dropkick but turned it tinto his spider walk. Wyaat said he can't die because he is already dead, but Jericho hit a Codebreaker and got a two. Jericho went to slide onto the floor but Bray got a thumb to the throat and then Sister Abigal on the barricade. The dueling chants started again. Bray dragged Jericho in, kissed him and hit Sister Abigail for the win. ... Really good match, though not as much heat as the earlier bouts. But these guys worked hard, told a great story and the right guy won. The great show continues.

Afterward, Bray said poor Chris Jericho. He found out what it means to follow the buzzards. Bray sang and some of the crowd sang with him.

Brie vs. Steph is up next. They recap what got us here.

Steph came out in what could best be described as a dominatrix outfit. Brie came out next in a normal outfit. They showed Ronda Rousey at ringside. She is having fun. The match is on.

Steph was in control early, using power moves. She then mocked Daniel Bryan and Brie went for the Yes Lock. Steph bailed to the floor. Brie went for a tope but Steph dumped her head first on the apron. OUCH. Steph stayed in control. The fans chanted you still got it and honestly, Steph is kicking ass. She is really legit kicking ass. She has dominated and done a great job so far. ... She went to mock Brie and got nailed with a series of kicks. That just made her angry and she ran at Brie but got hit with a Thesz press. Brie then took over with kickes to the midsection and a snapmare and more kicks to the midsection as the fans chanted Yes. Brie hit a missile dropkick and got a two. Brie was pounding on Steph when HHH came down, followed by Nikki. Steph went for the Pedigree but Brie turned it into a Yes Lock. HHH pulled the ref away. Brie then did a dropkick through the ropes on H. Brie did YES on the floor and Steph tried to get away. Nikki stopped her. Steph got caught between the sisters when Vince Russo showed up and Nikki punched Brie, you know after she just hit HHH. Steph hit The Pedigree and got the pin. Nikki acted sad that she did that to her sister. HHH raised his wife's arm as the winner. Steph and H mocked Brie and Nikki watched from the floor. SWERVE. Ugh. ... As for the match, I liked it a lot until the end, way better than I expected it to be. Steph was great. As for the finish, as I said above, ugh. I get that they tell stories and all, but there is just no logical reason for Nikki to do what she did.
