- Dexter Lumis continues to haunt The Miz. One week after the mystery man kidnapped the former WWE Champion, he made his presence felt again. The Miz refused to talk about what happened last week, but the sight of Lumis, who was standing in the crowd, shook him up during his match with Bobby Lashley. The United States Champion then made The Miz tap out to the Hurt Lock. Later in the show, The Miz drove away, but Lumis popped up in the backseat.

- Kevin Owens reignited his feud with Jey Uso on Monday. 18 months after Uso cost him his match with Universal Champion Roman Reigns, Owens confronted The Bloodline (Reigns and Paul Heyman). He told Sami Zayn that he was making himself look stupid with the way he let the stable treat him so badly. He then challenged Jey to a match, and Zayn's reluctance to hit his friend with a chair cost his Bloodline stablemate the match.
