Live Coverage.

  • Corey Graves & Wade Barrett welcomed the audience to the broadcast before transitioning into the opening segment.
  • A-Town Down Under (Grayson Waller & Austin Theory) kicked off the show by hosting a new edition of "The Grayson Waller Effect", with WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes as the special guest. Waller continued to interrupt Rhodes's entrance, saying that he was the hero of the story because they did not know "the real" version of him and said he was only using his "friends" (Kevin Owens & Randy Orton). Rhodes put over Owens as a competitor and a friend before asking Waller if he was just using Theory, emphasizing that everyone noticed Waller was using him and they were waiting for Theory to notice him. Waller responded by showing a video package of the multiple times Owens had betrayed his friends to get what he wanted.
    This immediately backfired on Waller as Owens made his appearance. Owens said he did not have the kind of relationship he had with everyone else he turned against before asking Nick Aldis to come to the ring and make a tag match main event to evade any more nonsense. After Aldis made the match official, Owens asked Aldis if he could still attack A-Town Down Under, to which Aldis responded by asking him to "make it quick". Owens & Rhodes then brawled with A-Town Down Under to end the segment.
  • WWE United States Championship Match: LA Knight (c) def. Santos Escobar (w/ Angel Garza, Berto Garza & Elektra Lopez) via Pinfall (BFT).
  • Carmelo Hayes cut a promo to Andrade El Idolo from "The Barbershop", but he was confronted by Andrade. Andrade then challenged him to a match for next week.
  • Legado del Fantasma (Santos Escobar, Angel Garza, Berto Garza & Elektra Lopez) argued backstage after Escobar lost the title match, but Baron Corbin & Apollo Crews interrupted to make fun of Escobar. Escobar challenged Corbin to a match for next week.
  • Naomi, Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair def. Blair Davenport & The Unholy Union (Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn) via Pinfall (Split-Leg Moonsault).
  • There was a video package promoting the event "WWE Bash In Berlin" narrated by Natalya.
  • The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Tonga Loa, Jacob Fatu & Tama Tonga) came to the ring for a promo ahead of Tama Tonga & Jacob Fatu's title match. Sikoa addressed three items: Item number one was that Roman Reigns was "done". Item number two was that he had next from whoever wins between Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes to bring back the WWE Undisputed Title to The Bloodline. Item number three was Sikoa saying there was an issue with the tag titles. Sikoa then called Fatu and told him to give the title to Tonga Loa because he could not be a tag champion while injured. The Pride (Montez Ford, Angelo Dawkins & B-Fab) interrupted and said it was "demotion season" for The Bloodline.
  • Byron Saxton interviewed the WWE United States Champion LA Knight, where he said he was happy to defend his title in Washington, DC as a bi-costal man and said he would defend his United States Title at WWE Bash In Berlin.
  • WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Bloodline's Guerrillas of Destiny (Tonga Loa & Tama Tonga) (c) (w/ Jacob Fatu & Solo Sikoa) def. The Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) (w/ B-Fab) via Pinfall (Flatliner from Tama Tonga on Dawkins).
    • The Bloodlien continued to attack The Street Profits after the match. #DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa) tried to make the save, but Jacob Fatu laid them out.
  • Kevin Owens & Cody Rhodes spoke backstage ahead of their match against A-Town Down Under and hoped Rhodes understood what he meant earlier tonight on his promo, to which Rhodes responded by saying that he would take his word and go from there.
  • While Byron Saxton was providing an update on The Street Profits & #DIY, B-Fab, Candice LeRae & Indi Hartwell entered the trainer's room to check on them.
  • There was a vignette of "Michin" Mia Yim inside a rage room, where she called out Nia Jax. Yim will face Jax at the Berlin SmackDown for the WWE Women's Title.
  • Tiffany Stratton & Pretty Deadly (Elton Prince & Kit Wilson) tried to put the Queen of The Ring Tournament before Nia Jax met them. Jax promised to make Yim pay. Piper Niven & Chelsea Green talked trash about Jax and Stratton, and Jax heard all of it. Jax told Green she was in no mood tonight.
  • Kevin Owens & WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes def. A-Town Down Under (Austin Theory & Grayson Waller) via Pinfall (Pop-Up Powerbomb from Owens on Waller).
