- After defeating Baron Corbin, Finn Balor grabbed the mic and said that he isn't looking past what John Cena did stealing his title match. Roman then came out and confronted Finn, but Balor didn't back down, pushing the champ out of the ring. The Usos, however, came out and attacked Balor. Although he fought back, the numbers advantage was just too much.
