*** Smackdown ***
- This week's Smackdown took place in Portland, Oregon.
- WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins kicks off Smackdown in the ring with a microphone. Rollins says we all need to slow down and witness pure greatness....him. He tamed "The Viper" Randy Orton, he escaped Sheamus' attempted cash in, he brought Neville back down to Earth and he shattered John Cena's nose. We will all tell our grandchildren about how great Seth Rollins is. Rollins says Cena accepted his challenge on Tough Enough cause he didn't have the courage to meet Rollins face to face. Rollins dares Cena to show up on RAW and realize that all have failed that have crossed Seth Rollins.
Neville interrupts Rollins and heads to the ring, as Rollins says no one called for a superhero. Neville says Cena still beat Rollins with a broken nose, if it wasn't for Orton then Sheamus would be the champ right now and Neville hit the Red Arrow and Rollins couldn't kick out. Rollins tells Neville he had his chance and failed, like everyone else. Neville tells Rollins he talks too much. Cesaro interrupts next and sides with Neville stating that Rollins talks too much. Kevin Owens suddenly comes out of nowhere and attacks Cesaro. Owens sends Cesaro into the ring steps. Inside the ring, Rollins attacks Neville and turn buckle power bombs him to end the segment.

- WWE Intercontinental Champion Ryback is in the ring with a microphone. Ryback says he's back, he feels great, winning the I-C Title was a proud moment, his staph infection almost ending his career or worse his life, thanks the fans for the support and Miz and Big Show better wake up cause it's feeding time.
- The Wyatt Family are in the ring with a microphone. Luke Harper says he was born holding the devil's hand. Bray Wyatt says Harper was once blind, but Bray gave him sight.

- Sheamus says the WWE Universe is sick of Seth Rollins talking, Randy Orton hitting RKO's out of nowhere and the WWE fans want to be entertained. Sheamus had the chance to usher in a new and fresher era, but Orton ruined it. Sheamus promises a Brogue Kick for Orton and Rollins.
- The Prime Time Players defeated The New Day, by pinfall. The New Day attempt to walk out, however, are stopped by The Lucha Dragons and Los Matadores. Titus grabs Xavier Woods and tosses him back in the ring. Darren Young hits the Gut Check and scores the pin.
