Renee sends us backstage to Charly Caruso. She will be joined by Daniel Bryan later and fans can submit their questions with the #AskDB hashtag. She's about to reveal The New Day's MITB participant but Kevin Owens comes walking by and he's in a bad mood. He's asked about being slammed by Braun Strowman last week and this leads to another rant by Owens. A staffer walks up and brings Owens a bag of pancakes with syrup. He won't reveal what he has planned. Charly looks to reveal The New Day's member for tonight but she suddenly can't reveal any scoops.

Bryan joins the panel from backstage to answer fan questions and says he's doing great. Bryan knocks Cass and doesn't think Cass can beat him. Bryan says he's tapped out bigger guys than Cass and his plan is to do go in the ring and do whatever it takes to get him to tap. When asked if he enjoyed being SmackDown General Manager, Bryan says it had its ups & downs but the hard part was being around something he loved but was unable to do, which motivated him to work harder for a ring return. Bryan is asked about advantages he has over Cass and he says the main three are legs, lungs and heart. Bryan says Cass can't outwork him, outpace him and doesn't have the heart he has for being at this for so long. Bryan goes on and is really confident about beating Cass tonight. Bryan's stream ends and the panel discusses the match. Otunga and Rosenberg pick Bryan to win the match. Renee sends us to another break.

Rollins says the truth is Elias isn't on his level, and Elias' greatest hits wouldn't even make the cut on his B-side. Rollins says Elias might think he's going to walk out of Chicago with the title but this is Rollins' title and he fights for it every single night. Rollins says tonight will be no exception – he will leave Chicago as the man. We go back to the panel to discuss the match. Renee says we might see Elias win the title.
