Mark Briscoe is looking for MJF, Ricochet interrupts and says he better watch out. Briscoe says he feels like a new man now, and Ricochet better watch out.
Backstage, MJF tries to talk to Shelton Benjamin, implying that it’s actually Bobby Lashley who is out of the Hurt Syndicate. Shelton corrects him, reveals that the watch MJF gave him months ago was a knockoff, and formally tells MJF he’s out of the Hurt Syndicate.
Tony Schiavone welcomes Christian Cage to the ring, and asks him about what happened at All In. Christian calls himself an asshole, but says he had a split second of having feelings at Revolution, and it caused him to unravel. He says he has no problem with his team standing up to him, but he has a problem with them questioning him. He goes back to his rivalry with Adam Copeland, and asks if what he did was really that bad in the grand scheme of the wrestling business. Schiavone asks him where this leaves The Patriarchy. He says he’ll bounce back, and asks if they can back up the things they’ve said. He says he really did care about Nick Wayne, but now he has another dead father.
As he’s heading up the ramp, Shayna Wayne confronts him, leading to a beatdown from his former underlings. They finish with a Conchairto, the classic version, not the one-man.
