We see a replay of The New Day Vs. Rusev and Aiden English from the pre-show. We’re backstage and see New Day celebrating with their titles. Rusev licks a silver bell and rings it. In walks a guy wearing a tuxedo shirt and hands them two bottles of champagne. Kofi disappears, then returns as his new blonde-haired reported persona. He asks them what is next for New Day. Big E says next is Australia, where they face The Bar, but tonight they celebrate. He grabs a cooler, full of pancakes, and pours it over the head of the hand who brought them to champagne.
