Undisputed WWE Championship Match [Steel Cage]: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Solo Sikoa

The night's main event pits Cody Rhodes up against Solo Sikoa in a steel cage match for the Undisputed WWE Championship. SmackDown GM Nick Aldis set the match on last week's show with the hopes of keeping The Bloodline from interfering in the match.

When asked about the match and what Solo Sikoa might be capable of inside of the cage, Rhodes sai "There's nothing more perfect... I'd be a fool if I was not concerned. I'd be a fool to say I didn't have a little trepidation, a little fear about it, but I have been in a mini steel cage, and Solo Sikoa has never been in one."

Kevin Owens and [Mystery Guest] vs. A-Town Down Under

Kevin Owen will be looking for revenge after taking a post-match beating from A-Town Down Under on last week's show. But who will he team up with to take on the young tag team duo?

Andrade vs. Carmelo Hayes (Part 5 - Series tied at 2)

Andrade and Carmelo Hayes face off once again in their best-of-five series. The two budding WWE superstars put on four stellar matches thus far. This final rubber match is set to decide a winner and perhaps even propel the victor up the WWE food chain.
