Following Raw, the WWE Network will air a new episode of the Edge & Christian Show, promising, "The Realm of Awesomeness is under attack, Randy Orton tries to manage his anger, and Kurt Angle's first WWE meeting goes off the rails!"

Representing NXT: Adam Cole, The  Velveteen Dream, Dominik Dijakovic, Keith Lee, and Heavy Machiney's Otis Dozovic.

Representing NXT UK: Mark Andrews, Tyler Bate, Travis Banks, Jordan Devlin and Zack Gibson.
