We see a limousine and an SUV pull-up backstage. The Singh Brothers step-out of the SUV with a carpet and lay it down outside of the limo and out steps Jinder Mahal. Dasha appears and interviews Jinder. He says that the Chicago fans and Americans hate him for how he looks. Tonight, however, he will turn the nation of discriminators into believers. He will make them see what the great people of India already know, that he is the modern day Maharaja. He then speaks in Punjabi and anoints himself the next WWE Champion.

James Ellsworth comes to the ring and introduces his homegirl, Carmella and The Welcoming Committee. Tamina’s outfit makes her look a lot like Nia Jax.
Carmella, Natalya & Tamina Vs. Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch & Naomi
Tamina and Becky kick things off. They lock up and Tamina shoves Lynch to the mat to show off her power. Becky tries to take her down unsuccessfully. Tamina hits a big headbutt before bringing in Natalya. Becky tags in Charlotte to take over. She and Nattie trade holds and counters until Charlotte takes control. She taunts Carmella and Tamina, which leads to Natalya taking her down with a clothesline.

Carmella is able to take control after receiving the tag. However Charlotte quickly turns things around and brings in Naomi for a springboard crossbody. The champ hits a flurry of kicks, but Tamina prevents her from hitting the split legged moonsault. Naomi takes a lot of punishment while Carmella and Natalya dispose of Charlotte and Becky on the apron. Naomi hits a hurricanrana and tags in Becky, who comes on hot with strikes and suplexes.
Becky knocks Tamina off the apron before locking Natalya in the DisArmHer. Carmella breaks it up, so Charlotte throws her out of the ring. Tamina hits Charlotte with a superkick. We’re left with Nattie and Becky in the ring and Natalya is able to apply the Sharpshooter on Lynch, who is forced to tap out.
Winners: Carmella, Natalya & Tamina Snuka
A WELCOME victory for @CarmellaWWE, @NatByNature and @TaminaSnuka… #WWEBacklash @realellsworth pic.twitter.com/EFZ9IYO63h
