After the match, Priest gives Benjamin props for fighting him like a man. Priest says he wants his challenger next week to be of world championship caliber. Who is going to take the championship from him? Bálor walks out on the ramp and says it sounds like Priest is talking about him. Bálor tells Priest to be careful what he wishes for.
In-Ring Segment: Reggie
Reggie asks the former 24/7 Champion Dana Brooke to join him in the ring. Reggie tells Brooke he cares about her and would do anything for her so he asks for a referee. The Champion lays down in the ring tells Brooke to pin him. Reggie kicks out. Reggie tells her he was joking. Brooke pins Reggie again. Reggie kicks out. Reggie laughs. Brooke goes for another pin but before Reggie can kick out Brooke kisses him for the… um… three count. That has to be a first, right?
Winner and NEW 24/7 Champion, Dana Brooke!
R-Truth, Tamina, and Tozawa run down to the ring. Reggie drop kicks R-Truth. Brooke knocks Tozawa off the apron, into Tamina’s arms. Tozawa makes a kissy face. Tamina drops him and chases Brooke and Reggie out of the arena.
