Mahal gets the better of the exchange and his opponent is quickly revealed as Cesaro (accompanied by Sheamus). The match sees Cesaro get the victory, when he takes advantage of Mahal’s momentary distraction upon spotting Rusev back on his feet, and Cesaro hits Mahal an uppercut for the victory.

Afterwards, Rusev re-enters the ring and beats down Mahal until The Big Show’s music hits to reveal him as Rusev’s opponent. The match sees Show get the victory, when he hits Rusev with three chokeslams in a row and follows it up with a K.O Punch for the 3-count.
