Roman Reigns vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

Rick Boogs, who accompanied Shinsuke Nakamura to the ring, started playing his guitar midway through the match.

This prompted The Usos to make their way to ringside and beat him up. Following this distraction, Roman Reigns gained the upper hand as he superman-punched Nakamura outside the ring. As the action shifted back into the squared circle, The Tribal Chief speared his opponent and went for the cover to win this battle of champions.
