A recap Kevin Owens’ rivalry with the McMahon Family plays.
Arena Promo
Kevin Owens’ music plays and he saunters to the ring. Tom Phillips, Corey Graves, and Byron Saxton are at the commentary table; Graves and Phillips wonder what Kevin will do at Hell In A Cell in his Hell In The Cell Match against Shane McMahon on October 8.
In the ring, Owens inquires where Commissioner Shane McMahon is and says he has been named a “coward” for his attack on Owner Vince McMahon two weeks ago on Smackdown! and also not showing up in the ring last week on Smackdown! Kevin ponders if Shane is the real “coward” but also totes his admiration for Vince. “You saw what I did to someone I actually like and respect (Vince), so imagine what I’ll do to a man I don’t. (Shane)”
Sami Zayn’s music plays and he joins Owens in the ring. He questions Kevin on his mindset; he wants to bring Owens back to Earth. “You need to get a grip and Kevin, you need to stop right now.” Owens tries to convince Zayn that all is well with his head, and then dresses Sami down for not accomplishing as much as he has. Zayn retorts angrily, and then General Manager Daniel Bryan interrupts. He says Shane may or may not be here, but since Zayn is, he and Kevin will wrestle tonight!
Up next, Tye Dillinger takes on Baron Corbin.

The lights go out and a familiar gong sounds! The music and video of The Undertaker plays, but….it is Dolph Ziggler in “The Deadman’s” attire. He mocks Undertaker’s entire entrance and then takes a microphone in the ring. “What?! You look like you see a ghost.” The fans loudly chant “you suck!” He continues his rant about comparing his athletic ability to the stars that use showmanship.
The lights go out again and this time it is… “GLORIOUS!” Bobby Roode struts to the ring with a microphone in hand. Bobby credits Ziggler for his in-ring skills, but calls him a “hypocrite” since he continually berates the audience for their alliances with wrestlers. Roode challenges Dolph to show him those skills at Hell In A Cell; Ziggler begrudgingly accepts.
