The Street Profits def. A-Town Down Under to advance in the WWE Tag Team Title No. 1 Contender’s Tournament
In the first match of the WWE Tag Team Title No. 1 Contender’s Tournament, Angelo Dawkins launched Grayson Waller into the time keeper’s area, effectively taking him out of the match.
Montez Ford and Dawkins then isolated Austin Theory to hit a Super Blockbuster to win the match and advance in the tournament.

Alba Fyre did her best against the awesome Jade Cargill, but Cargill hit Jaded to win the match.
After the bell, Blair Davenport hit the scene to attack Cargill and Bianca Belair with The Unholy Union. Their attempt at a beatdown backfired, however, as Naomi arrived to help Belair and Cargill brawl with their rivals and eject them from the ring.
Santos Escobar interrupted LA Knight’s U.S. Title Celebration
Santos Escobar def. Andrade in a U.S. Title No. 1 Contender’s Match
As Andrade battled Santos Escobar for the right to become the first challenger to LA Knight’s U.S. Title, Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews took care of Angel and Berto, who were looking to help Escobar defeat Andrade by nefarious means.
Escobar hit a splendid poison rana that left Andrade reeling, but Andrade struck back by hitting a moonsault where he changed his momentum mid-move as Escobar moved out of the way.
Just when Andrade looked set to defeat Escobar, Carmelo Hayes hit the scene to antagonize Andrade.
The distraction allowed Escobar to roll up Andrade with a fistful of tights and become the No. 1 Contender to the United States Title.
