**********
Live! From Chicago.
— Undisputed WWE Champion Sami Zayn drove into the backstage area and got a babyface reaction from the folks backstage. Cody Rhodes showed up and Zayn got in his face and they exchanged heated words. Gunther came out of nowhere and killed Rhodes with a powerbomb through a table. Gunther called Zayn a fluke champion, than kicked the car door into Cody (still on the ground), busting him open.
Will there even be a title match tonight? (During this segment, we got our first “CM Punk!” chants of the night).
Michael Cole & Corey Graves were on commentary.
