Preshow Highlights

• Ryback's tweets about his staph infection are shown. Needless to say that he won't be competing tonight. The Miz also mocked Ryback on Twitter as well because of course.
• Eden interviews R-Truth (who insists on being called "King What's Up"). He says that he may walk around with a tin foil crown and a toilet plunger for a scepter, but he knows what he's doing. He says that he's busted his butt for a long time to get where he is, and he can't wait to see Barrett's face after a guy with a plunger beats him.
• The New Day makes an appearance at the preshow panel and does some clap therapy before vowing to regain their tag team titles. A bunch of incomprehensible stuff follows as Renee Young tries to segue to the next segment. Byron Saxton also wipes Big E's brow for reasons.
• Tom Phillips and Paul Heyman are in the Social Media Lounge. Brock Lesnar's daily routine before a match? Eat, sleep, conquer in the ring, repeat. How many suplexes? As many as Lesnar damn well feels is appropriate. And what happens if Lesnar loses to Seth Rollins? Well, Heyman says that Lesnar will absolutely murderdeathkill Rollins and walk out with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
• The debut of Becky Lynch, Charlotte, and Sasha Banks is replayed. Renee Young says that all nine women involved in that segment (Team Bella, Team Bad, and the Powerpuff Girls) are here tonight.

R-Truth vs King Barrett (Battle for the Crown)

• The two tie up and go to the corner. The ref calls for the break and Truth prances around like a bunny. The two tie up again and go back to the corner where strikes are traded. Truth whips Barrett to the opposite corner and attempts a pin after a splash/snapmare.
• After his signature air humping chant, Truth reverses a wheelbarrow facebuster into a messy roll-up for two. Barrett heads outside, and Truth follows with a splash to the outside. Barrett reenters and takes control following a rake to the eyes.
• After a commercial, Truth breaks a knee to the spine for just long enough for Barrett to hit him with a forearm to the face. He then follows with some knees to the face while Truth is trapped in the ropes. This nets him two.
• After breaking a chinlock, Truth is whipped to the corner, but dodges a corner boot from Barrett, causing the latter to crotch himself. Truth starts to rally back with clotheslines and a missile dropkick that gets a two count.
• Truth goes for the scissors kick, but Barrett dodges and goes for Wasteland. Truth escapes and hits the spinning single leg dropkick followed by the scissors kick for two. Barrett responds with Winds of Change for two.
• The Bullhammer is set up as Truth gets back up. Truth goes for a roll-up for two and then tries to follow up with the Lie Detector. Barrett uses the rope to stave off the attempt and hits the Bullhammer for the win.

As the segment closed, I caught a sign saying "Paul Heyman and the CBS Orchestra." Whoever made that, well done!

Randy Orton vs Sheamus

• The two tie up and Sheamus immediately goes outside and plays with his mohawk. The "you look stupid" chant starts as the announce team addresses his new nosering.
• Sheamus reenters and starts working Orton's arm until the ref calls for a rope break. The two tie up again, and Sheamus is knocked down, causing him to head outside again. Orton follows and the two brawl outside for a few moments. Sheamus is whipped into the barricade during this scuffle.

• More strikes are traded until Orton lands a t-bone suplex for two. He eventually gets Sheamus in the corner for some mounted punches. Orton is dropped onto the turnbuckle and Sheamus ascends the rope. Orton follows and lands a big superplex for two. He follows this up with the draping DDT and calls for the RKO, causing the crowd to go bananas.
• Sheamus reverses the RKO into a roll-up attempt for two and follows up with a Brogue Kick. Orton rolls over to the ropes to prevent a pin, so Sheamus drags him to the middle of the ring and locks in the Cloverleaf. After a pretty long tiem, Orton makes it to the ropes. Sheamus drags him up and RKO OUTTA NOWHERE FOR THE WIN!!!
