- Heavy Machinery working out in the WWE Performance Center and says no team is ready for them in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Tucker was pulling Otis on a sled while he was lifting weights.

- Tommaso Ciampa heads out to the ring to a chorus of boos. "You suck!" chant breaks out and he's not even to the ring yet. "We want Johnny/Johnny sucks" dueling chants, Ciampa still hasn't said anything as he holds a crutch over his shoulder. He goes to talk, more boos, so he waits. Tries once again, gets some more boos from the crowd. Ciampa finally gets frustrated, throws the mic and almost leaves. He sees a Gargano sign, takes it from a fan, holds it up, rips it, goes back into the ring and puts it down on the mat. He then bashes it with his crutch a few times before heading to the back with the fans still booing.
