We get a promo from the Intercontinental Champion Brandon Reigns. He tells us that nobody should be shocked about what he did to Jake Connelly on Raw. If you were a fan of Brandon Reigns all these years why would any of you believe that he needed Jake Connelly at his side? Jake Connelly is late to the party because people have tapped Brandon Reigns to be the future of the company a long time ago. Jake Connelly was trying to stay relevant by hitching himself to Brandon's wagon. Sorry, but with the Intercontinental Title on one hand and Money in the Bank in the other, there's no room for anyone else on this ride.
We're joined by the WWE Cruiserweight Champion Jordan Demiras in the ring. He informs us that he is making a demand that Lisa Benton sanction a championship match between him and Michael Hotbody at Judgment Day.

Sorola almost feels bad for him. Sorola doesn't think that this version of Demiras isn't up to the challenge at Judgment Day against Hotbody. Demiras dares Sorola to try him if he really thinks that's the case. Sorola is down for a match tonight but only if Demiras makes it a title match. Demiras ponders it over but ultimately agrees.
