By Richard Trionfo on 2016-06-20 23:00:00

We are back and AJ Styles makes his way to the ring.

We see what happened at Money in the Bank when AJ defeated John Cena with some help from Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson.

AJ says you all sound happy and he should feel happy. He says he envisioned this moment for years.  He dreamt about it and then it became a reality.  This dream match between John Cena and AJ Styles was tainted by two guys who were supposed to be more than brothers to him.  He beat John Cena.  AJ says that he beat John Cena.

It was not how he dreamt it and he did not expect Gallows and Anderson to get involved.  He wants Luke and Karl to make their way to the ring to make a public apology if the Club is going to continue.

Luke and Karl make their way to the ring.

AJ asks if they have been through a lot.  He says he had John Cena right where he wanted him.  He says he did not need their help.  There will never be another first time AJ Styles versus John Cena match.

Karl says they were just trying to help.

AJ says they gave John an excuse and they dragged his name through the mud.  He tells Karl and Luke to look him in the eyes and apologize.

AJ tells Karl to go first.  Karl apologizes.

AJ tells Luke to turn that frown upside down.  Luke apologizes.

AJ says he needs them to apologize to one more person . . . John Cena.

AJ wants John Cena to come out to accept this apology.

John Cena makes his way to the stage.

John says he does not need an apology.  They had a contract and you broke it.

Luke tells John it was not AJ's fault.  AJ had no idea that they were going to get involved last night so he is sorry.

Karl tells John that AJ signed the contract but they did not.  They took advantage of that fact and for that, he is sorry.

AJ tells John they are sorry.

John says you are fighting to survive in the WWE and you needed a win desperately and you did it by any means necessary.  This is a moment you should be congratulated.  Maybe a number one contender.  You use your Club like an apology or maybe you are proving you are not as good as you say you are.

AJ says that John is using Luke and Karl as an excuse because maybe you aren't as good as you are.

John says he respects the win.  Winning is the key to success in WWE.  When you win night in and night out, that is what a champion is made of.  What you don't get is right up there with winning is being a man of your word.  When your back is against the wall, you have two things, your balls and your word.  Last night you proved you have neither one of them.

AJ says Karl and Luke did you a favor.  AJ says he does not care about the fans.  Luke and Karl gave you an excuse.  He will give John the option of any member of the Club to face tonight.

John comes to the ring and he says that he choses AJ Styles.

AJ says he was not finished and he says any member of the Club but him.  They got involved and should be punished.  AJ says he has the Stone Cold Podcast tonight and he already beat John.  AJ asks which one will it be.

John asks if it matters.  You are riding real high of the win last night and the apology tonight.  It does not matter which he chooses.  One will be in the ring and two will be on the floor.  He says he wishes AJ signed the contract for Cena versus the Club.  John says in a fair fight, he would knock each of their teeth down their throat.

AJ says that John is wrong and people don't like you because you always think you have to be right.  AJ says he is a man of his word.  It will be Karl Anderson versus John Cena, one on one.  AJ says Karl Anderson will knocks John's teeth down his throat and you will realize you are not as good as you think.  AJ wishes John luck and then he mentions his appearance on the Stone Cold Podcast later tonight.

We go to commercial.

JoJo is with Seth Rollins in the interview area.  She asks him about his match against Roman Reigns.

Seth says he wants to talk about last night.  It was about proving things.  When he won his title back last night, he proved that he was the best and that Roman never deserved to be a champion.  He says Dean proved something last night when he snuck up from behind and hit him in the back of the head with the briefcase.  Dean proved he was a cockroach and a thief.  Now he has to prove himself again.  He beat Roman last night and he will beat him again tonight.  He will beat Dean and then show who the best member of the Shield is.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Renee Young is with Becky Lynch.  Renee asks about having another friend stab her in the back.

Becky says it is not good.  She has had Paige and Charlotte do it and now Natalya.  If this means she is the last one with sportsmanship then she is doing something right.  She does not know why Natalya did what she did.  She is taking the knife out of her back.  It is one strike and you are out.

Natalya attacks Becky from behind and she says that she is going to be taking care of herself.

Match Number Four:  Zack Ryder versus Baron Corbin

They lock up and Corbin sends Ryder away.  Corbin has something in his eye and the referee stops Ryder, but it was a ruse and he punches Ryder.  Corbin with a knee to the midsection.  Corbin chokes Ryder in the ropes and the referee warns him.  Corbin with a forearm but Ryder with a kick and forearms.  Ryder with punches in the corner and he sets for the Broski Boot but Corbin gets to the floor.  Ryder with a baseball slide and drop kick to send Corbin into the ringside barrier.  Ryder with an elbow drop for a near fall.
