• The first ever, historic Women's Money in the Bank Ladder match featured Becky Lynch, Carmella (with James Ellsworth), Charlotte, Nattie and Tamina.

Then a comedy male jobber casually climbed the ring, took down the briefcase and dropped it to Carmella on the floor and declared her the winner.

• The Fashion Police defeated their mystery assailants, revealed to be The Ascension. Nothing match that ended with a cradle pin.

• Roman Reigns opened the show with what felt like a largely heel promo, bragging about how nobody can beat him one-on-one and that he doesn't care who wins between Joe and Brock since he can beat either one. Samoa Joe came out and reminded him that he has never beaten him, Reigns replied that to him, Samoa Joe is "Just Joe". Joe attacked Roman and got the best of him early, but when he went for his submission Roman fought free and Joe quickly fled the ring.

Bray Wyatt interrupted on the Titantron to call him a hypocrite who still conforms to what others want him to be. The two jawjacked for awhile and then Bray decided to come down to the ring to face him one-on-one. When he arrived, as the lights came back up Seth jumped him from the top turnbuckle.... then just left as his music played. Seth somehow cut his face in the process.
  
  
• In a backstage interview, Finn Balor said that he will only look forward, and his goal is set on regaining the Universal Championship. As he gave his thoughts on Joe vs Roman, Elias jumped Finn from behind and warned him never to upstage him again.

During the match, Neville showed up and told the commentators he was here to keep an eye on Tozawa as well as Titus. Tozawa defeated TJ and Titus immediately demanded replays of the finish and insisted the crowd cheer for Tozawa, then announced he and Apollo would be facing Sheamus and Cesaro for the tag titles later tonight.

• MizTV's special guest was Maryse, with Miz attempting to apologize to his wife for his recent gently caress-ups. He gifted her a fixed/upgraded version of the Grandfather Clock he'd wrecked a couple weeks earlier. Just as Maryse looked set to forgive him, Dean Ambrose showed up. Miz's attempts to get at Dean saw him gently caress up again, with Maryse being splashed by her drink and the grandfather clock wrecked again.

• Sasha Banks vs Nia Jax ended in a DQ when Alexa Bliss attacked Emma and got her to chase her down to ringside. As soon as the match was thrown out, Alexa and Emma joined forces to attack Sasha. Dana Brooke and Mickie James came down to get involved, then Bayley, and the faces cleared the heels out.
  
  
• Kurt Angle came out to address the attacks on Enzo and Cass. He brought them out, then the Revival, then Big Show. Show said he would never hit somebody from behind he'd do it to their face. He walked out threatening that he might leave Raw after this accusation. Angle said he had confirmed The Revival's alibi, but assured everybody he would figure this out eventually. Corey Graves spoke up to accuse Big Cass, and showed footage of Big Cass faking the attack on himself.
  
  
• Cass admitted he was the one who attacked Enzo, because he was tired of putting up with him and that nobody liked him. He was dead weight holding back Cass' potential. He finished his promo saying they were through and KO'ed Enzo with a big boot to end the show.
  

• Recap of the controversial ending to the Women's MITB match. Tamina, Charlotte, Nattie and Becky were backstage outside Daniel Bryan's office arguing. Bryan came out and told them he would address things as soon as he heard what Carmella and Ellsworth had to say for themselves.
  
  
• Carmella and Ellsworth came to the ring. Carmella said she didn't care that she won it controversially, she got what she wanted and there was no specific rule against it. She brought up other times wrestlers had gotten wins/titles in controversial fashion, mocked the fans for tweeting and insisted Daniel Bryan couldn't do anything about the fact she's Miss Money in the Bank. Crowd was quite heated in response to a lot of what she said.
  
  
• Backstage Charlotte told Bryan not to worry about her neck and to deal with Carmella's bullshit victory. She refused to let him ignore Ellsworth's interference even if the match was No DQ, pointed out they made history "for the wrong reasons" and insisted he do the right thing about it.
  
  
• BIG E defeated Jimmy Uso in a singles match. The Usos tried to walk out on the match like they did at the PPV, but Kofi and Xavier stopped them and forced the match to go to a conclusion.
  
  
• Nattie and Tamina interrupted Daniel Bryan on the phone with Shane, and Nattie tried to ingratiate herself with Bryan while Tamina insisted he do something about the situation.

Lana showed up and challenged her to a rematch, Naomi told her to get out of her face or get slapped back to Russia.
  
  
• In a sitdown interview, Randy Orton admitted he lost focus which caused him to lose his title rematch against Jinder. He thought that Jinder doing exactly the same thing he does in every single match against Orton was "maybe, probably" Jinder's strategy. He insisted this was far from over and he intended to hurt Jinder.
  
  
• Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Dolph Ziggler in a long match that was probably the best the two have had together. Shinsuke kicked out of everything Ziggler could hit him with, and pinned Ziggler following one hell of a Kinshasa.
  
  
• Daniel Bryan congratulated Sami Zayn on his performance at MITB and told him he had a match against Baron Corbin next week. Becky Lynch showed up and Sami commiserated with what happened to her in her MITB match. Becky explained just how badly Ellsworth forcing his way into the match had hosed her over and how upset she was that she constantly does the right thing and gets screwed out of victories by people taking shortcuts or cheating. Bryan told her it was complicated, but she said there was nothing complicated about doing the right thing.
  
  
• Kevin Owens complained that the other wrestlers at MITB teamed up to keep him from winning the briefcase. He declared the United States is the REAL land of opportunity and as such he would give a local wrestler a shot at his US Championship. AJ Styles answered the open challenge but Owens reminded him it was for a local (Dayton, Ohio) wrestler. Chad Gable from American Alpha answered the challenge also, saying he'd just moved to Dayton..... uhhh... this morning! AJ backed him up and called for the bell to be rung, and the ref agreed while Owens was spluttering in protest.
  
  
• After an initial flurry by Chad Gable, Owens was able to beat him and pin him clean. AJ was on guest commentary.
  
  
• Backstage, Zack Ryder showed Daniel Bryan footage of the show where he injured his knee while simultaneously winning a Number One Contender's spot for the Tag Championships. They asked for that title shot since they never had it, but Bryan said things had changed since then. He did offer them a match against the Usos next week, and if they win that they get a title shot.
  
  
• Sami and Tye Dillinger did a commercial piece for Sonic, where Tye rated every Sonic drink as a 10/10.
  
  
• Daniel Bryan came to the ring and explained he had been told by Shane and other WWE Management not to let emotions rule his decision regarding the Women's MITB match. He brought out Charlotte, Tamina, Nattie, Becky and Carmella (with Ellsworth). He admitted there was nothing in the rulebook preventing interference by non-competitors, and there had been interference in other matches in the past. But nothing like Ellsworth climbing the ladder, taking the briefcase and then gifting it to Carmella had ever happened before, this was uncharted territory. He intimidated Ellsworth and threatened to fire him for mentioning Bryan's new baby daughter.
  
  
• Everybody started arguing and talking poo poo to each other (and insulting Ellsworth), Bryan shut them up and announced Carmella would make history by being the first to hand over the Briefcase, because he was ordering the match to happen again next week (the crowd booed when they realized they wouldn't get the match). He took the briefcase and left with it.
  
  
• All the women started brawling, then Becky and Charlotte stopped to take out their aggression on Carmella instead. Becky used the Disarmer on Carmella and talked poo poo to Ellsworth.
  
  
• Jinder Mahal defeated Luke Harper in the main event. Mahal won after, stop me if you've heard this one before, the Singh Brothers provided a distraction and then Jinder caught him from behind and hit his finisher. Baron Corbin showed up towards the end of the match and walked around the ring, mocking Jinder and warning him that he was in his head.
  
  
• As Jinder celebrated, Randy Orton showed up, got past the Singhs and beat up Jinder inside and outside the ring. Before he could hit the RKO however the Singhs jumped Randy and gave him a kicking. Randy fought loose and hit RKOs on both, the latter off of a dive from the top turnbuckle. Randy posed for the crowd and taunted Jinder as he retreated with his belt.
