Backstage, Nick Aldis is with Naomi and Bianca Belair. He says he got an anonymous video from when Jade Cargill was attacked. As she's loaded into the ambulance, Liv and Raquel are seen in the background. Nick says this doesn't confirm anything, but Naomi and Bianca are adamant they did it and promise to go to RAW to take care of them.

Nia and Candice begin to walk out and Charlotte Flair's music hits! She walks past them and heads to the ring. Officials help Trish to the back and Tiffany is laid out in the ring as Flair comes out. Charlotte stands over Tiffany's body with a microphone. She picks up the chair Nia left and sets it up. She then sits down on it next to Tiffany's body.

Charlotte tells Tiffy to wake up. She mocks Tiffany and then says "The Queen chooses you". WrestleMania has been decided!

Back from break and we get a vignette with The Street Profits. Dawkins says they ruffled a few feathers for telling the truth. They said they promised to never let grudges consume them. They said they blame the tag teams for making them liars. They call out Los Garza, Pretty Deadly, Motor City Machine Guns, and DIY. They say they're cleared.

Montez says they're going to know the frustration that has been burning up for years. They said it's finally going to be shown to the world. They said the motto doesn't change - they want the smoke.

After Nakamura walks out, we get a backstage segment with Nia Jax, Candice LeRae, and Alexa Bliss. Bliss mentions that if she wins the Chamber and Nia wins the WWE Women's Title, they could have another WrestleMania match. Candice does not look pleased.

Notably, The Wyatt Sicks flashed during the segment! They're coming!

Miz says John Cena called his shot, so he's calling his. He wants a United States Title match. LA Knight laughed and brings up how he defended the title more than Logan Paul and Nakamura combined.

The Miz then interrupts things. He calls them basic. He says LA Knight wasn't a flash in the pan, but he's basic and not worthy. The Miz says do you know who is worthy, but Knight cuts him off and mocks him. LA Knight says The Miz has been using the same schtick for over 10 years and says it has been at least that long since he's been relevant.

LA Knight says he almost forgot Miz was even here and everyone wants to forget he is. Knight says he should start a farewell tour because everyone wants to see The Miz go away.

Shinsuke Nakamura comes out. He says he's been hiding in the shadows and nobody has been coming for him. He says he was praying for a worthy contender and wanted a test. LA Knight's music then hits and he cut him off.

Knight says that is a lie and the last time they were in the ring together, LA planted him on his head. Knight mentions Tongans and Samoans snatching the title away from him but he's beaten them all. He calls them crosseyeds and halfwits.

Backstage, Jacob Fatu is throwing a huge tantrum, looking for Solo. He finally runs into him and demands he tell him what's going on. Solo says he needed time off because he has not been himself. Solo says he let them down, but he's okay now, and he's ready to go and take over, just like they did before. Solo says the only way they can do that is together.

Solo says it starts with Jacob winning his qualifier, the chamber, and the title. He asks if Jacob gets him. Fatu goes to walk off, but Solo stops him and says, "I love you, Jacob." Wow, that's interesting. Tama stares at Solo as both walk away.

Next, we get a vignette with Damian Priest. He says he doesn't need to tell people who he is. He has made it to the top. He says he doesn't need a leader or crew on SmackDown. Really cool rock-style video package. He promises punishment and anarchy.
