Once Braun was the only one left he picked up a mic and said he had been chasing interim RAW GM Baron Corbin and he was not leaving till Corbin 'Got these hands'. Instead, Stephanie McMahon came out and said that regardless of the issue, he could not hold RAW hostage.

Stephanie offered him the position of the team RAW leader but Braun said he didn't give a damn. He said Stephanie was trying to manipulate him and asked for Corbin again. She then offered Braun anything he wanted in return for leading the red brand. Braun said he wanted another Universal Title shot and Baron Corbin in the ring in a match where he picked the stipulations.

Braun also wanted Baron Corbin to sign a waiver so he wasn't responsible for the outcome of the match. Stephanie agreed but on the condition that he didn't touch Baron till after Survivor Series.

Ronda Rousey came out next and said she would destroy 'the Man', but then focused her aggression on Stephanie. As Rousey was about to attack Steph, Baron came out and talked her down. Rousey took out Baron with a Judo Throw and then walked out. Braun then went for Baron but Steph reminded him of the stipulations.

Braun told Corbin to enjoy being Steph's lapdog because, after Survivor Series, he will neuter Baron.

The invasion

Lynch tattoos Ronda with the steel chair!

Alexa announced after the match that since neither Sasha nor Bayley won, she would pick a final team member and it was Ruby Riott.

The camera cut to backstage where Becky Lynch had Ronda Rousey in the Disarmher and the officials had to separate them by force. Back in the ring, Becky made her entrance and faced the entire RAW Women's team minus Natalya. As the RAW team was about to charge at the SmackDown Women's champ, the entire SmackDown Women's team came from every which way and it turned into an all-out brawl.

Becky suffered a broken nose in the carnage and was bleeding profusely as Ronda Rousey made her entrance to salvage the situation. Becky took a steel chair and attacked Ronda, taking her out while her team took out the rest of the women from RAW. After a successful invasion, the women of the Blue Brand headed back up the aisle and left the arena with Becky's face covered in blood as she stared down Ronda from up top.
