-Commercial Break-
John Cena and Roman Reigns confront one another
John Cena and Roman Reigns are standing in the ring across from one another when we return from the commercial. A “Cena” chant fires up, but most of the crowd is just booing. Reigns says he has one question for Cena: if he is who he says he is, why did it take a 16-time champ over twenty minutes to beat a rookie? If Cena is as good as he says he is, he would have beat him at the get-go. Instead, Cena strung it out and crushed them after making it look like Jordan had a chance. Either that or Cena lied last week and proved him right that he is just “a fake ass little bitch.” The crowd loudly boos him.
Cena calls Reigns, “Debbie Downer.” Cena would say he’s happy to see him, but he’s disgusted by his entire face. Cena tells Reigns to stay in his lane with using his brain because they all saw how that worked for him last week. Reigns is thinking about questions that he’ll get answers to soon. Cena says his zipper is open. Reigns says he busted it because he’s “The Big Dog.” Cena says he was looking for his balls, but he hasn’t got any. Cena says he’ll get the answers to these questions at No Mercy. At No Mercy, Reigns will get beat by a guy who’s either lost a step or has been stringing him along for years by letting him waltz out here and make mistake after mistake before chopping him down to size. The only question Reigns will have is “how in the hell did this happen?” Cena calls him a “conceited, know-it-all golden boy” that needs a lesson in respect. Jason Jordan and Chad Gable scratch and claw to get everything they have. A guy like The Miz, who he despises, works hard week after week to get what he wants, and he respects that. Cena doesn’t respect Reigns. Reigns waltzes down here and calls him a fake ass bitch, but the only one living a lie is Reigns. Reigns says this is his yard and he is the guy, but the crowd doesn’t agree. The crowd loudly applauds. Cena wonders if there is any room in that clouded, conceited brain to see what is actually going on here or does he have to beat some common sense into him?
Reigns dares him to do it now. A “YES” chant breaks out. Reigns asks the crowd if they want Cena to beat his ass, and they loudly cheer. Reigns says this is Cena’s moment to back up his big mouth. Reigns tells him to do it. Cena smirks and leans against the ropes. Reigns says Cena is all talk. That’s why he doesn’t respect Cena. Reigns’ music plays, and he walks off.
Tonight’s main event will see Braun Strowman take on Big Show in a Steel Cage Match. Last time they fought, the ring collapsed. We’ll also see Jeff Hardy take on The Miz for the Intercontinental Championship later tonight.
-Commercial Break-

Cesaro tags in, and they both kick Slater for a two count. Slater soon takes Cesaro down. Rhyno and Sheamus are soon tagged in. Rhyno takes him down before hitting a shoulder in the corner. Rhyno chops Cesaro down before hitting Sheamus with a fireman’s carry neckbreaker. Cesaro throws Slater out of the ring, and Rhyno dumps Cesaro out of the ring. Rhyno then turns into a Brogue Kick, and Sheamus picks up the victory.

They’ve been innovators for 25 years because they wrestle each match like it’s their first and last match. Jeff says he’s excited his daughter could see him become the Intercontinental Champion tonight. It’s not about age or life beating you down. It’s not about age. It’s about the vitality that’s bright in his spirit. Tonight, he’ll either burn out in a blaze of glory or be the new Intercontinental Champion.

-Commercial Break-
Finn Bálor addresses Bray Wyatt
Finn Bálor makes his entrance to a good reception from the Omaha crowd. Bálor says The Bálor Club is in Omaha, Nebraska. The NXT Championship used to look really good around his waist, as did the Universal Championship. The Intercontinental Championship would have looked good around his waist if it wasn’t for Bray Wyatt. When Wyatt appeared last week in the Battle Royal, he cost him an opportunity to challenge The Miz. While he was victorious at SummerSlam, you never truly beat someone like Wyatt. Wyatt appears when you least expect him. The next time Wyatt appears, Bálor will be ready. Bálor has chosen his fate and is not worried. Bálor doesn’t run from his demons because sometimes he becomes them. If Wyatt wants to continue to play games, then they should play.
Bray Wyatt’s video flashes on the screen, and he is shown from an unknown location. Wyatt talks about the first time he hunted, but he got bored because it was too easy. Wyatt put his weapon down and started using his hands instead. His bare hands judged them all, and they were always guilty. Wyatt showed no mercy. During those moments he had the chance to either end their pathetic existence or run along, he made a choice. That choice defined him. Wyatt knew what his purpose was. Bálor wasn’t victorious over him at SummerSlam: The Demon was. The Demon was his weapon, so Wyatt challenges him to put down his weapon and come at him. Wyatt dares him to make a choice.
Bálor says he already made his choice and knows exactly what he is: he is Finn Bálor. Wyatt says the question remains: at No Mercy, will he run like a scared little rabbit? Wyatt tells him to run.

Renee Young is backstage with Braun Strowman, who gets a big reaction. She asks what he’s thinking about his first Steel Cage Match. Strowman wonders what Kurt Angle is thinking. He’s supposed to be facing Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship in a few weeks, but tonight he’s in a Steel Cage Match with Big Show. Strowman will destroy him and slam him for the win. This might affect his title opportunity at No Mercy, but he’s not complaining. Strowman doesn’t see Angle putting Brock Lesnar in a Steel Cage before No Mercy.
