The Mixed Match Challenge is now in the playoff bracket of the tournament, with the top four teams in each brand advancing. This will have the RAW semifinal matches decided with Ember Moon and a struggling Curt Hawkins against the surging Mahalicia and Team B-N-B against Country Dominance.
Ember Moon was forced to team up with Hawkins after Braun Strowman suffered an injury last week. Team Mahalicia found a way to pick themselves up to earn a playoff spot after beating Bobby Roode and Natalya, coming across as the overall favorites. Though Moon had the match won for her team early on, Hawkins tagged himself in as he was unaware of the rules. His naivety led way to Mahal taking advantage and pinning Hawkins.

The second RAW semi featured respective rivals settling their issues. Finn Balor and Bayley have had their problems with Bobby Lashley and Mickie James over the weeks and this was the chance to get the number over them and reach the MMC semifinals. Lio Rush would get involved on multiple occasions, leaving Balor to get an ounce of revenge of both him and Lashley. Bayley would hit James with a Belly-To-Bayley and get the victory, setting up a showdown in two weeks against Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox.
