Jericho and Amore kick things off in the middle of the ring. Jericho has the momentum in the early exchanges before Amore nails a dropkick.
Jericho then tags in KO, who wants Cass in the middle of the ring and he is granted that as Enzo tags his partner in. KO starts assaulting Cass, before the 7 feet plus Cass shows his brute strength.
Cass then throws out KO, before doing the same to Jericho. Cass is dominating the match by nailing the sidewalk slam on Jericho and KO.
Y2J uses his street smartness to evade a high boot from Cass as KO also knocks him down with a kick to the face.
We cut to commercials.

Jericho is seen making his way to the ring. Last week, Jericho mocked the friendship between celebrity duo of Ashton Kutcher and Danny Masterson - who appear on That 70's Show. The duo responded by teasing an appearance on next week's Raw. They also added that the friendship between Jericho and Owens is not real.
Jericho, who is in the middle of the ring, is infuriated by the remarks of the celebrity duo and added them to his list. He adds that even Seth Rollins is on the list. Y2J adds that he has been in the WWE for 17 years and he has never been injured and Rollins - who has been here for some one and a half years - is injured again.
He then welcomes tonight's special guest and his dear friend Kevin Owens to the ring.
The duo first discuss the 65 inch TV present for the Highlight Reel.
KO then adds that he did not come in a suit, because a city like Cincinnati - which spawned a lunatic like Dean Ambrose - does not require a suit.
He adds that he proved last night that he is what he says he is. He then takes credit for injuring Seth Rollins.
KO then adds that Rollins has been reckless and has been responsible for injuries to John Cena, Sting and Finn Balor. The Champion then adds that Rollins may have been the most dangerous man in the WWE, but now it is KO who is the most dangerous man.
Seth Rollins' music hits and he starts to make his way to the ring, only to be interrupted by Mick Foley and security guards.
KO then cuts a promo about how he broke Rollins in half.
As Rollins and Foley make their way back to the locker room, Enzo and Cass' music hits and the duo make their way to the ramp.
Enzo cuts a promo before Jericho interrupts and adds that the duo have been added to the list.
However, Y2J makes a mistake in noting down the name of Enzo Amore and Big Cass and KO points that out.
The Ayatollah of Rock 'n' Rolla is then mocked by Cass, before Y2J says that if Cass was Santa Claus, he will come and sit on his lap.
The two pair then discuss whether Y2J actually said what he said, with Jericho denying that he ever said that. Cass then validated his argument by asking the crowd whether Y2J said it.
KO then asks them to leave ringside as they don't have a match scheduled, to which Cass responds by adding that on their way to the ring, Raw GM Mick Foley informed them that they do have a match against Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens and it is up next.
Are @aplusk and @dannymasterson coming to #RAW with some payback on their minds aimed at @IAmJericho?! pic.twitter.com/chF2g1MXhk

Nese has all the momentum at the start of the match and looks o be on a mission. Perkins fights back and locks his opponent in the Knee Bar.

We go to commercials.

Later tonight, Kevin Owens will appear as a special guest on his friend, Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel.
And we cut to backstage, where it is none other than the injured Seth Rollins. Let me remind you, Rollins injured his ribs in the match against Owens last night and is not medically cleared to compete tonight.
We cut to commercials.
Back from the break and Rollins is interrupted by Foley. Rollins insists that nothing will stop him from interrupting the Highlight Reel as Foley tries to talk some sense into him.
Rollins insists that he sees Foley's lips moving but all he listen to is Stephanie's words.

Up Next it is Charlotte and Dana Brooke celebrating in front of the capacity crowd in the US Bank Arena.
Charlotte successfully defended her title in a triple-threat match against Sasha Banks and Charlotte at Clash of Champions last night, albeit with some help from Brooke.
Charlotte's music hits and boos ring around the arena.
Charlotte starts with stating that Clash of Champions was once again her night. She insists that she is the Queen of WWE's women's division.
She adds that the difference between her and Bayley and her and Sasha is that - she not only Talks the Talk, but also Walks the Walk.
She adds that she is not the huggable Bayley or the internet sensation Sasha Banks, but she is the money-maker and the Queen.
The Boss' music hits and Sasha makes her way to the ring.
Sasha insists that the title is still hers and she wants it back. She adds that Charlotte beat Bayley to retain the title and not her and she still has her one-on-one match due.
She wants the title shot now.
Charlotte first teases that she accepts Sasha's invitation before adding that she would put her title on the line against Sasha next week.
After some more trash talking, Sasha slaps Charlotte right across the face, before locking Brooke in the Banks Statement.
Charlotte breaks it, but the Boss throws both of them out of the ring.
Update: Raw GM Mick Foley has made next week's title match between Charlotte and Sasha Banks official.
UP NEXT: @MsCharlotteWWE has a little celebrating to do STILL your #RAW #WomensChampion, and @DanaBrookeWWE is in tow! pic.twitter.com/5hbAaCiAoT

It's time for the cruiserweights to take centre stage. The team of Swann and Alexander go up against Dorado and Gulak in what is expected to be a fast-paced encounter.
All the competitors have made their way to the ring and the match is underway after the customary show of sportsmanship. Dorado and Swann kick off the match with some quick counters and a hurricanerana each. Dorado slams Swann face first into the mat with a facebuster, but Swann smacks Dorado in the face.
Swann rolls out of the ring with Gulak and Cedric going at it by ringside. Dorado takes the opportunity to show off his aerial ability with a moon sault on all three men on the outside. We cut to commercial.
We're back from the commercial break and Gulak is wearing down Swann with a chin lock. Gulak tags Dorado in, who continues the onslaught. Swann creates some separation after he moves out of Dorado's missile dropkick in the corner.
Swann tags Cedric Alexander, while Dorado tags Gulak in. Cedric Alexander is feeling the momentum as he goes on to unleash a barrage of kicks on Gulak. Dorado is tagged in and is taken down with an insane back suplex double knee backbreaker courtesy of Cedric. Swann tagged in next, who comes in and connects with the Rich kick on Dorado, follows it up with a pinfall with a bridge. 1-2-3!
Rich Swann and Cedric Alexander def. Drew Gulak and Lince Dorado
Mick Foley is seen backstage arguing with Stephanie McMahon.
Foley accuses Stephanie of helping Owens retain his title last night at Clash of Champions.. Stephanie loses it, and blasts Foley. She asks him if he wants to continue as the GM of Raw or wants to be an ambassador.
In case you missed it, after Clash of Champions Stephanie was received by her husband Triple H in a limousine, which teased the theory that it was the two who worked together to help Owens retain his title.
However, Steph insists that Hunter was there just to pick him up and the two didn't have anything planned against Rollins.
She then asks Foley to do his job and protect Rollins tonight, as he is not cleared to compete in the ring tonight.
Bayley vs. Anna Fields
A squash match for Bayley?
The rookie starts unloading on Bayley but she fights back. The match is short-lived as Bayley lands the Bayley-to-Belly on Anna, before pinning her for the win.
Result: Bayley beats Anna Fields via pinfall
After the match, Bayley is asked about last night's match against Charlotte and Sasha Banks. She vows to come back stronger.
The damage to @WWERollins' ribs is enough to NOT medically clear him to compete tonight on #RAW... pic.twitter.com/f6XXxXL4M7
— WWE (@WWE) September 27, 2016
Meanwhile, Foley and Cesaro are backstage and the Raw GM has just reiterated that he cannot risk losing a supreme competitor like Cesaro. But, why was this segment aired. Is it a sign of things to come? Is Cesaro on his way to SmackDown?
Update: Seth Rollins has injured two of his ribs in last night's match against Kevin Owens for the WWE Universal Championship and has not been cleared by the medical team to compete tonight.
