-A “We Stand With Orlando” graphic opened the show.
-The team of Scott Stanford, Booker T, and Corey Graves checked in. They noted the absence of David Otunga and said he was “on assignment” providing analysis for Superstars and Main Event. Graves acted happy and said “no more Otunga” and Booker joked that he never liked Otunga. “I wish you the best of luck, Dave,” Stanford said.
-They hyped the Ambrose Asylum with Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, then hyped John Cena vs. AJ Styles and set up a video recap of their angle from last week.
-John Cena and AJ Styles will take part in a contract signing on Raw tonight.
-Graves said Sunday won’t the last viewers see of Styles even if he loses on Sunday. Booker predicted a Styles win in a “big breakthrough moment.” Graves picked Cena to win.
-Footage aired of Tyler Breeze and Fandango discussing tan lines while wearing only towels. They dropped their towels and said “no tan lines.” They entered the same tanning bed and you could see that they were both wearing shorts. Goldust and R-Truth showed up and cranked up the heat of the tanning booth.
-For some reason, Booker was intense and said Breeze and Fandango need to get their act together.
-Sami Zayn vs. Cesaro was announced for Raw. Graves acknowledged their NXT history.
