Sami Zayn sees Braun Strowman, Miz, and R Truth in the back.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Damian Priest says it is time to move on.

Seth Rollins shows up and he asks to talk to Priest.  Priest says they can go and he has this.

Seth says it is better to be lucky than good.  You were very lucky, but you were also very good.  You kept your word.  Your boys didn't get involved so he will keep his word.  He will not come after Priest for the title.  No matter how good you were on Saturday, you have to be better at SummerSlam.

Priest says he kept his word and Seth will keep his word, but Priest tells him to throw it out the window because when he is done with Gunther, he will face Seth again.

Priest gets a phone call and he asks where they are.

Sami Zayn makes his way to the ring.

Sami says it is an honor to stand in this ring in the Nation's Capital representing Canada as a champion.  On Saturday, Bron brought everything to the ring.  All of his power, strength, and speed.  He made one crucial mistake thinking that Sami was the underdog.  Sami says he is not an underdog any more.  He says he is a champion.  Sami says he has been putting in top level performances in the ring night in and night out to the point that he has earned respect.  That was not what Bron brought to Toronto.  It is one thing to knock him down, but another to keep him down.  

Sami . . . 

Is interrupted by Bron Breakker and he makes his way to the ring.

Sami asks Bron what is he here for.  Is he looking for a fight?  Are you looking for a rematch?  Did you come out here to say anything or are you going to stare at him all night.

Bron takes the mic and he says he came out here to look at the only man who can say that they beat him.  Bron says he didn't think it would be Sami.   Bron says he is a smart guy and he knows how this works.  There is no reason for him to get a rematch.  Bron says he has been thinking . . .

and he spears Sami.  Officials pull Bron off Sami and they act like the Senators' defense and Bron crashes the crease that is Sami Zayn.  

Bron walks up the aisle and then he turns around for the Warp Speed Spear.

Ilja Dragunov comes out and he has to be held back. 

Bron says he is so scared and he goes to check on Sami.

We go to commercial.

We are back with a Moments Ago Moment of Bron breaking Sami in half.

Ilja is with Sami in the trainer's room.  Ilja says he wants Bron Breakker.  Adam gives him the match.
