Mandy comes out to celebrate with Otis, and distracts Strowman. Otis sets up for a pin, but Strowman turns around. Otis claims he's just kidding and celebrates with his peach in the middle of the ring while Braun looks on from a distance.

Braun Strowman defeats John Morrison via pinfall.

A tilt-a-whirl DDT was countered into a powerslam, sending John Morrison packing.

Miz rolled out, and Strowman set up the locomotive, running Morrison out of ringside before driving through Miz. However, back inside, Morrison tagged Miz after te A-Lister avoided a shoulder tackle in the corner.

Otis countered a double suplex, sending both competitors overhead before tagging in the Monster Among Men. Strowman crashed into Miz before dropping Morrison on his head. Miz was crushed in the corner and launched into the center of the ring with a release suplex.

The IT Kicks connect, but Miz can't put Otis down. With Miz on his back, he was taken to M&M's corner.

Miz ran into Otis with three of his flying clotheslines in the corner. A diving axe handle took Otis to the mat.

During the break, Otis tagged back in and took a thumb to the eye, giving Miz an opportunity to hit his DDT for a near-fall.

Otis's is great as usual. Strowman's is...it uh...there was an attempt. Still a pretty great moment as they drop two elbows into the chest of Morrison before we cut to break.

Morrison's kicks to the mid section do nothing, as Otis continues to Hulk up. A clothesline and a flapjack takes out Morrison as Miz is knocked off the apron. Otis slams Morrison and tags in Strowman before demanding they both do the caterpillar.

Braun Strowman fires up Otis, telling him to shut Miz and Morrison up. Morrison tries to lock up with Mr. MITB, but is shaken off easily.

The main event is next, and Miz and Morrison are taunting Otis for not having a tag team partner. However, the Universal Champion comes through for, essentially, his #1 contender.

Deville cuts a promo on Mandy, reminding her that she promised to ruin her life last week. She's not done yet. Next week, it continues when they defeat Otis and Rose.

We'll also get Bayley vs Charlotte and AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura in the IC Title Tournament. Gonna be a good episode.

Next week, Sonya Deville and Dolph Ziggler will take on Mandy Rose and Otis in mixed tag team action.

Renee Young interviews Bryan after the match as Bryan goes down memory lane. He was forced to drop the IC Title when he was forced to retire. However, now's different. He's going to do something we saw John Cena do with the US Title. Weekly title defenses. The Intercontinental Championship will represent the greatest wrestler in the WWE,and that's him.

Daniel Bryan defeats Drew Gulak via submission.

Gulak escapes but a nasty dragon screw seriously whips the knee of GUlak into the mat. With the heel hook in place, Gulak is forced to tap.

Gulak avoids the Knee Plus, countering with a roll-up. A powerbomb connects, but Gulak kicks out again. Gulak finally locks in the Gu-Lock in the middle of the ring. Bryan rolls through as Gulak goes from a standing Gu-Lock, moving in for the Yes Lock.

Bryan escapes a back suplex, bouncing a rebounding Gulak off the ropes into a German suplex that nearly launched him across the ring to the floor.

A third shin breaker was finally able to break Gulak's hold. Still, Gulak recovered, nearly spiking Bryan with a kneeling Michinoku Driver.

Back from the break, and Gulak has maintained the upper hand. Gulak's headlock is locked in tight, and he refuses to loosen his grip even after taking two shin breakers.

After jockeying for position, Gulak dumps Bryan overhead, sending him crashing headfirst on to the apron. Gulak seemed worried as Bryan struggled to shake off the damage.

Bryan traps Gulak with a double underhook and dumps Gulak down wit a suplex into an armbar. Gulak escapes yet again. These two truly do know each other like the back of their hands.

YOU failed to welcome them with open arms, so The #ForgottenSons are going to welcome YOU with CLOSED FISTS. 👊👊👊 #SmackDown @TheWWEBlake @SteveCutlerWWE @JaxsonRykerWWE pic.twitter.com/mCkdgSiuWi

Gulak brings Bryan to the mat with a takedown and traps him in the Gu-Lock. Bryan, again, reaches the ropes before too much damage is done.

Bryan takes Gulak down for a wristlock, but is countered with a roll-up. Gulak escapes the Yes-Lock, making it to the ropes.

Bryan takes Gulak to the floor with a suplex, but Gulak manages to worm his way into an attempted ankle lock. Bryan makes it to the ropes before getting back to his feet.

These two have been training day in and day out in order to make one another better. This is gonna be a classic.

It's time! Daniel Bryan vs Drew Gulak!

Jaxson Ryker of the Forgotten Sons explain their reasoning for their brutality. They're veterans but were treated poorly upon their return to the United States. They expected to be greeted with open arms. Now they're greeting everyone else with closed fists.

"Are you your own woman or are you just going to be @itsBayleyWWE's 𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘺 and be happy being an 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵? Woo." - @MsCharlotteWWE to @SashaBanksWWE on #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/tFenksX24a

Before leaving, Charlotte asks Sasha if she's truly happy being a lackey to Bayley, attempting to drive a wedge between the friends.

Bayley cuts her off, demanding a Champion vs Champion match. Charlotte agrees, but needs to speak to Banks first.

Charlotte pushes Bayley aside, asking Sasha Banks why she's okay with being a sidekick when the Boss was the one working with Flair main eventing RAW and PPVs.

Bayley lists her accolades and reminds Flair that she's done something the Queen hasn't. She's a Grand Slam Champion, having captured all three singles titles as well as the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship.

Bayley and Sasha remind the Queen that the last time they met, Bayley defeated her for the SmackDown Women's Championship.

Bayley is, currently, the longest-reigning Women's Champion in WWE.

Before she could finish bragging, Bayley and Sasha Banks interrupt.

Charlotte explains that the reason she's working three brands is that the people want to see her and, crunching the numbers, it just makes sense to bring in The Queen.

WWE gives us a great video package going over the situation regarding the RAW Women's Championship and Becky Lynch's pregnancy. As it ends, NXT Women's Champion Charlotte Flair enters the ring.
