Royal Rumble
Kurt Angle announced Sheamus and Cesaro will receive their rematch at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view in Philadelphia.
The Bar approached Angle as he was on a call backstage and wanted to know why they still haven’t received their title shot. They complained that it should’ve happened tonight, but Angle booked Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan in a different six man tag team match instead.
Angle listened to their grievances and ended up making the title match at the Rumble PPV.

RAW 25
Before we get to the Royal Rumble, another big match was set up for the 25th anniversary of RAW, as The Miz will challenge Roman Reigns for the Intercontinental Championship.
After The Bar left the room, The Miz reintroduced himself to Angle and talked about his big plans and running his own unscripted show with Maryse (The It Couple?) Miz said he wanted his title shot, but he wanted it on a big stage and requested the match takes place at RAW 25. Angle agreed and set the match for the anniversary show in two weeks.
