Ken Shamrock vs Billy Gunn
Former Attitude Era wrestlers were in action, as Ken Shamrock took on Billy Gunn. The hard-as-nails Shamrock was ready for a fight, and seemed to have the match in hand. He took Gunn out on the outside of the ring, clearly in his element. Gunn had a few tricks up his sleeve, and caught Shamrock with the Famouser for the victory.
Winner: Billy Gunn
Nikki Bella and Trish Stratus vs Kelly Kelly and Natalya- Champions vs Challengers
Two nights ago on Smackdown, Dean Ambrose and The Rock faced off against Booker T and Randy Orton in a Champions vs Challengers match. Tonight, the women of Universe Mode were out to prove that they could do it better, as they took part in their own Champions vs Challengers match. Both teams worked well early on, tagging in and out, the referee doing a good job making all 4 women follow the rules. Kelly took control of Trish following a distraction from Natalya, taking the WWE Women's Champion to the top rope for a huricanrana. Trish landed very poorly though, taking the impact all on her neck as the air seemed to rush out of the arena. The ref called a stop to the match and called down a stretcher for the injured champion. More news on this situation as we get it.

Tyler Breeze(c) vs AJ Styles- Light Heavyweight Title Match
The Main Event crowd was still reeling following the scary injury sustained by Trish Stratus as the Light Heavyweight Title was defended in our main event. AJ Styles won the title opportunity on NXT, defeating Ricochet and demanded that the title match take place immediately. Both men went at it right away, trading big shots. Breeze went for a Super Model Kick, and Styles stepped through, connecting on the Styles Clash, but it wasn't enough to win him the gold. Styles came close a few more times, attempting a Phenomenal Forearm and going for a big Pele Kick, but Breeze connected on a big clothesline. Prince Pretty then set up and hit the Beauty Shot, but that wasn't enough to keep Styles down. Breeze controlled the match, using his devious tactics to prevent Styles from flying. However, Styles showed his fighting spirit, connecting on a brainbuster, then hitting the Phenomenal Forearm. Styles finished it off with a second Styles Clash to become the new champion.
Winner and the NEW Light Heavyweight Champion: AJ Styles
