In the traditional Raw vs SmackDown ten-man elimination tag team match, Triple H, Kurt Angle and Braun Strowman were the three men left from Team Raw and Shane McMahon was the sole representative of Team SmackDown. All looked well for the Red Brand as Angle had McMahon locked in the Ankle Lock, but Triple H being The Game turned on his teammate and hit Angle with a Pedigree right in the center of the ring.

Triple H then placed McMahon on Angle and instructed the referee to count to three. A confused Strowman stood by dumbfounded but The Cerebral Assassin didn't give him much time to react and quickly hit his brother-in-law with the Pedigree and pinned him to secure the victory for Team Raw.

After the match, Strowman held Triple H by the throat and warned him to never pull anything like that again. Triple H looked to attack Strowman when his back was turned but was caught and The Monster Among Men hit him with two running Powerslams.

This feud was also sidelined the night after the PPV and never mentioned of again. This match could have pushed Strowman higher up the ranks. It would have been interesting to see how The Game would have retaliated to Strowman's herculean strength.
