We start things off with the NXT Champion Bo Dallas and he has made his return to the building. The balloons come from the ceiling and there are streamers too. Bo puts on a party hat and enters the ring.

Bo congratulates Sami, but he says that we already did this. He defeated Sami already. It is starting to seem like Sami is a sore loser.
Sami tells Bo not to patronize him. He has no problem working up from the bottom. The next time they are in the ring, he will take the title from Bo.
John says that opportunity is just a win away. He will have a Beat The Clock Challenge to name the new number one contender. Sami is in the Challenge and he will be wrestling tonight.
