Featuring:
The epic Undisputed WWE Championship Match between Cody Rhodes and Gunther ended in controversial fashion as Special Guest Referee Sami Zayn inserted himself into the action
Rhodes refused for the match to end in that fashion and demanded they restart it, but Zayn once again interfered and laid out both Superstars.
Damian Priest and R-Truth are still the WWE Tag Team Champions thanks to a significant error from Solo Sikoa.
Ricky Saints punched his ticket to Night of Champions by defeating Carmelo Hayes to become the No. 1 Contender to the United States Championship.
Jey Uso is headed to Night of Champions to face Oba Femi in the King of the Ring Final after defeating Je’Von Evans in a thrilling matchup.
Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan conquered Charlotte Flair to secure her spot in the Queen of the Ring Tournament Final.
Flair was the victim of a brutal pre-match attack led by Jade Cargill, forcing The Queen to compete at far from 100 percent. Flair's injury was compounded by an uncalled cheap shot from Morgan before the bell.
The Queen fought valiantly, but her injury was too much to overcome as Morgan hit Oblivion to advance to Night of Champions.
