Stephanie is still talking to Triple H about Vince’s visit, and she says they need to show a strong front and get a really great Survivor Series team. HHH says he is calling Randy Orton, and Stephanie asks why he would do that if Orton isn’t on the same page as Seth Rollins. HHH says Orton is who he is calling, because all of that stuff with Rollins happened before her father showed up tonight, and it’s what needs to happen.
Jimmy Uso (w/ Jey Uso) vs The Miz (w/ Damien Sandow)
Miz applies a side headlock and Jimmy catches him with a kick, then he applies an armbar and Jey mocks Sandow’s performance by miming along with his brother. Miz stomps him in the corner and snaps his head on the ropes, then he kicks Jimmy in the face and stomps him on the mat. Miz charges Jimmy near the ropes but Jimmy backdrops him and splashes him on the floor, then Sandow goes to roll in but Jey kicks him in the face. Miz takes advantage and pulls Jimmy in the ring, and hits a Skull Crushing Finale for the win.
Winner – The Miz
Sheamus vs Tyson Kidd (w/ Natalya)
Kidd kicks Sheamus a few times before Sheamus hits an Irish Curse, then he hits a few kneedrops and gets a near fall. Kidd hits him a few times and chokes him on the ropes, then Sheamus catches him with an Alabama Slam before he applies a Cloverleaf. He locks it in but Kidd gets a rope break, then Kidd kicks him in the face a few times before he blocks a suplex by Sheamus and knees him in the face. Kidd knees him and dropkicks him out to the opposite side of the floor, but Sheamus comes back with a rolling senton on the floor. Kidd kicks him a few times and throws Nattie in the way, then he rolls in and beats the ref’s count. Kidd celebrates but Sheamus Brogue Kicks him right away, then plays to the crowd and leaves.
BP: How the hell does this make Sheamus, or Rusev look better? If you are putting Sheamus on tonight, he should’ve looked good in a squash to sell people on the title match later. Kidd was on offense way too much here for a match that was setting up another match tonight. Rusev, who will in all likelihood win tonight, benefits from a title win, but he just beat a guy who A) wrestled once tonight, and B) looked terrible in a countout loss. Stupid booking logic here.
