By Richard Trionfo on 2016-10-17 23:10:00

We are back and Sami Zayn is walking in the back and he is asked why did he pick a fight with Braun Strowman.  Sami says he did it because nobody else will.

Lana is in the ring and she introduces her husband.

Rusev says in two weeks time he gets to crush Roman Reigns in Hell in a Cell.  He tells the people to stop their USA chants and it only makes them chant louder.  Rusev screams in Bulgarian and the crowd chants 'What'.  

Lana tells everyone that her husband is not only the greatest United States Champion of all time.  She knows that Rusev is a great family man unlike the people in Colorado with pathetic family values.

Rusev says Roman talks about his family all the time.  That is good to know about your family.  You have seven hundred Samoans in your family.  Your family breaks coconuts over their heads.

Rusev introduces his family.  We see a photo of his mother and mentions she is a two time rowing champion.  Lana says this is what it means to be a champion, unlike the women here who are nothing.  Lana says you don't like your nagging and annoying mother-in-laws, but Lana says she loves her mother-in-law.   Rusev shows a photo of his father.  He says you can see where he gets his good looks from.  Lana says he is a strong man.

Rusev shows a photo of his brother, who is the best chef in the best restaurant in Bulgaria.  He shows a photo of his grandmother.  He shows a photo of his dog and his cousins.

Roman Reigns interrupts and he says he has a big family.  He is not talking about his bloodline, he is talking about the Roman Empire.  Roman says Rusev does not look like his dad.  Rusev looks more like the family dog.  

Rusev tells Roman he can disrespect his family but do not disrespect him.

Rusev says he will make a call, but Roman wants to know who he is going to call.

Roman says it doesn't matter who he calls because it is one on one at Hell in a Cell.  The only person Rusev will call is 911.

Lana gets in Rusev's face and Lana slaps Roman and Rusev follows with a super kick.  Rusev sends Roman into the ring steps.  Rusev hits Roman in the head with the ring steps.  Rusev sends Roman back into the ring and Rusev brings the rest of the steps into the ring.  Roman with punches but Rusev with a thrust kick and Roman is sent into the steps.  Rusev puts Roman on the steps and it is MATCHKA time.  Rusev stomps on the back and applies the Accolade on the steps.

Lana and Rusev leave the ring.

We see Goldberg confronting the Rock in 2003 on Raw.

We go to commercial.

We are and Enzo does his usual entrance and he says they have a couple haters.  Colin says hate it or love it, you can take your opinion and shove it.  Enzo says you have been chumps from the jump.  He says Karl has hell to pay and he will throw spirals at your dome piece like he was John Elway.

Match Number Seven:  Karl Anderson (with Luke Gallows) versus Colin Cassady (with Enzo Amore)

Colin with punches and they go into the corner and Colin continues the attack.  Colin with a fallaway slam and Anderson goes to the floor.  Enzo takes care of Gallows on the floor when Gallows tries to get involved.  Anderson kicks Colin as he comes back into the ring and gets a rollup for a near fall.  Colin with an enzuigiri side slam for the three count.

Winner:  Colin Cassady

Drew Gulak and Tony Nese are talking in the back and Tony tells Brian Kendrick to take care of his side of the bargain and they will take care of their side of the bargain. 

TJ Perkins enters and Brian asks if he is here to give another cheap shot. 

TJ makes fun of Drew's ring jacket.

Brian says you don't need friends, but you can have allies.

TJ asks what did Brian promise Tony and Drew to get in this six man match.

TJ says he knows Brian better than Brian knows himself.  He says it will be game over at Hell in a Cell.

Brian says this is not a video game, but he will be more dangerous since he is on his last life.

TJ's partners Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann enter and Swann says they can throw knuckles before they have their match tonight.

We go to commercial.

We are back and it is time to take a look at Lita's interview from earlier today with the Women's Champion Sasha Banks.

Lita asks Sasha about defending the title in Hell in a Cell and how does she feel.  Sasha says she is ready.  They started together in NXT and it is great to see how far they have come.  They are making history inside Hell in a Cell.  No matter the feelings she has for Charlotte, she has her respect.  Lita tells Sasha what Charlotte said about winning Hell in a Cell.  Sasha reminds Lita this is in Boston and it is her home town.  Sasha says she does not realize this is real.  The women's revolution has come so far and she is making history as the first women's champion in Hell in a Cell.  Lita asks Sasha about her back issues at SummerSlam.  Sasha says SummerSlam was SummerSlam.  She is good to go.

Lita mentions the structure lowering down over the ring and she asks if Sasha is afraid.  Sasha says she does not want to say it is fear because it is not.  She signed up for this and she wanted this match.  She does not want to say she is afraid.  She has been watching the previous Hell in a Cell matches, but when she enters that cell, she cannot show fear.  She needs to show that she is The Boss.

We take a look at how Goldberg won the WWE title at Unforgiven in September 2003.

Match Number Eight:  Brian Kendrick, Tony Nese, and Drew Gulak versus Rich Swann, Cedric Alexander, and TJ Perkins

Swann and Gulak start things off and Gulak backs Swann into the ropes and Gulak slaps Swann and takes Swann down with a waist lock into a front face lock.  Swann with punches to the midsection and Swann flips over Gulak and hits a drop kick.  Alexander tags in and he punches Gulak but Gulak with a punch of his own and Nese tags in.  Alexander with a drop kick to Nese and he slams Nese and tags in Perkins.  Perkins with a slingshot senton and he sends Nese into the turnbuckles.

Perkins goes for a tornado DDT but Nese blocks it and hits a suplex for a near fall.  Kendrick tags in and Perkins goes for the knee bar but Kendrick makes it to the ropes and he goes to the floor.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Alexander with a handspring round kick.  Kendrick tags in and he knocks Perkins off the apron. Alexander with a back body drop.  Swann and Nese tag in.  Swann with a kick and clotheslines.  Nese with a boot in the corner but Swann with a jumping rana for a near fall.  Alexander with a clothesline to Gulak and then Alexander with a Foley clothesline and he goes over the top rope with Kendrick.  Perkins with a slingshot drop kick.  Nese goes up top and hits a 450 splash and Kendrick tags in for the Bully Choke and Swann fights through it.  Perkins is held back by Nese and Swann has to tap.

Winners:  Drew Gulak, Tony Nese, and Brian Kendrick

Mick Foley and Stephanie McMahon are in the office talking about the Smackdown Survivor Series Challenge.  They also talk over each other trying to give the other person credit for the three Hell in a Cell match.

Stephanie asks Mick what does he have in store for next week's Raw.

Mick suggests Chris Jericho versus Kevin Owens versus Seth Rollins.  Stephanie says she does not like it, she loves it.  

They high five and Mick leaves the office.

We go to commercial.

We are back and next week the New Day will face Cesaro and Sheamus in a non title match.

Michael Cole is in the ring and he mentions Bill Goldberg's appearance on SportsCenter and his comments about Brock Lesnar.

We then see Paul Heyman's response last week on Raw and the challenge he made to Bill Goldberg.

Michael Cole brings out Bill Goldberg.  We see Bill walking in the back and the wrestlers are all applauding his ability to walk.

Bill makes his way through the pyro and he blows the smoke as if it is 1998.

Goldberg shows a lot of emotion over the response he got and then he poses on the turnbuckles.

Bill says it has been a long time and you didn't forget.  

Cole mentions the comments from ESPN and Paul Heyman's comments so he gives the mic to Bill.

Bill says it has been twelve years.  He says never say never.  He says he never thought he would be in this ring again.  He thanks everyone for the humble return.  Bill says what makes it so special is that his wife and son are here to see him live for the first time ever.  In January, he got a call from 2K and WWE and he was given the opportunity to travel all around the world for the video game.  

It has been twelve years and he has missed a lot of things.  Other than kicking ass, he misses being a superhero for all of the kids and there ain't enough of them these days.  He could go to Germany or Toronto and he could see it in the children's eyes that he was GOLDBERG.  It gave him the opportunity to be that superhero again.  Along the way, he created some drama in the WWE.  What that did was make him think.  It made him think long and hard.  Bill says he thinks maybe it is better left alone.  Maybe he keep it in the video game. 

But then . . . Brock Lesnar challenged him to a fight.  He didn't have the balls to do it himself.  He made Paul Heyman, his fat little stooge, do it for him.  That got him thinking.  What would you do?  He thought to himself maybe he has one ass kicking left in him.  He thought to himself.  Maybe he has one bad ass spear left in him.  Maybe I have last devastating jackhammer in me.

So, Brock Lesnar, not only does that mean that YOU'RE NEXT, but most importantly it means BROCK LESNAR . . . YOU'RE LAST.

We are told that Brock Lesnar will be on Raw next week.

We go to credits.
