Sami Zayn & Dolph Ziggler vs. The Miz and Kevin Owens

Miz gets double teamed for the first several minutes, as he's paranoid Owens will turn on him again. Owens is tagged in to face Zayn, but drops off of the apron. He's sent back into the ring and elbowed by Zayn, then Ziggler takes over.

Owens clotheslines and sentons Ziggler, which allows Miz to pop in and connect with a boot to the face. Miz sends Ziggler outside the ring as we head to a commercial break. Zayn gets the hot tag and hits a Blue Thunder Bomb on Miz, but Owens breaks up the count. Both men are taken out with a cross body block.

Kevin Owens tries to leave, but the other ladder match participants show up and prevent it. Miz attacks him and hits a Skull Crushing finale on Owens, but Ziggler hits a Superkick and Zayn gets Miz with a Helluva Kick to win.

Winners: Sami Zayn & Dolph Ziggler via pinfall (Helluva Kick)

All hell breaks loose, with everyone hitting finishers. Zack Ryder stands tall after the Rough Ryder on Owens.

Roman Reigns vs. Bubba Ray Dudley

Reigns immediately attacks Bubba Ray, then hits him with a Superman Punch. Bubba cheap shots Reigns and slams his head on the table. This gets physical and ends in a count out. Reigns lays waste to both Dudley Boyz before he leaves.

Result: Double count out

- ANOTHER Golden Truth Segment. I've lost count, but it's well over a dozen now.

Styles lands a backbreaker and slingshot forearm, but walks into a knee from Breeze. Styles hits the Phenomenal Forearm shortly after for the win.

Winner: AJ Styles via pinfall (Phenomenal Forearm)

- Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar come out, and Heyman says Lesnar will make more WrestleMania moments next Sunday. He talks about how hardcore legends are giving Dean Ambrose weapons to use. Heyman says God won't answer his prayers, which is why Mick Foley and Terry Funk are still alive. Heyman says the most dangerous weapon is Brock Lesnar. Heyman then calls out Ambrose. Instead they get the Wyatt Family, sans Luke Harper. Ambrose makes the save and helps Lesnar fight them off before going at Lesnar with a Kendo stick. Lesnar gets it and breaks it over Ambrose's back, then hits an F5.
