Duke Hudson was struggling to manage Chase U and called Andre Chase, but it went to voicemail. Duke left a message saying he was worried that there was no news about Chase's recovery.
Bron Breakker was out next and called out the WWE Heavyweight Champ Seth Rollins once more. Ilja Dragunov came out but was dragged away by officials before he could get close to the ring.
Seth showed up on the Titantron and said that Bron can't just say his name and make him appear. That said, Rollins still wanted to return to his former brand and accepted the challenge for next week.
