Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker on the stage. He says he hopes he didn’t offend her last week on the cruise. She says of course he didn’t, they stole the show last week. She calls him Mr. Starbucks. Baker directs her attention to Jim Ross and tells him never to interrupt her again. She says he knows she’s a dentist, and he sits there all smug and pretentious, collecting a large pay-cheque for no work. She tells him to be better and not a sloppy BBQ sauce salesman who can’t even get the roster’s names rights. Baker says she will be here every week, with her smile all over the screens, which is more than she can say for the Champion, Riho. She brings Tony back over and says that, based on the stench, she thinks he has gingivitis. She says Cleveland finally has a Baker than can trust.
We go backstage for an interview with The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega. The Bucks say they needed the win tonight. Their main objective is to get back to the top of the tag team divison and get a title shot. They say nothing personal to Kenny. Page walks in and he shows them the name plates on the tag titles. He says they made the name plates for everyone, so he gives the Bucks their name plates and says they’ll need them…someday. Kenny assuages everything as Page walks off. He says that he got an eight-man tag match booked for next week, so that the four of them can face The Butcher, The Blade, and a team of their choosing.

We see a video of PAC walking around at nighttime – in his gear no less – and he talks about Jon Moxley. he wants whatever is left of Moxley when Jericho is done. And as for Kenny Omega – PAC coughs over and over – and says he guesses Kenny finally heard him. He says he guesses Kenny will fit him in when it’s convenient. But that doesn’t work for him, they will do everything on his timetable, starting next week. A decent promo but why it was outside at nighttime, with PAC in his trunks, is anyone’s guess.
