Braun led his team to the ring after which the SHIELD entered in style through a 'sea of humanity'. A brawl followed with the SHIELD getting the initial upper hand and going for a SHIELD powerbomb on Strowman which was intercepted by the other two.

The match officially began with Ziggler and Rollins who was then isolated, dominated and taunted by the heels for a long time. Rollins showed signs of tagging at times but the heels stopped him. Braun surprisingly went for a splash off the top rope and missed.

The hot tag was made and Ambrose took out Ziggler with his spots. Both men ended up taking each other out with a double cross body. Roman then came in to face Macintyre after the tags were made and he was met with relatively milder reaction from the crowd.

Roman got the upper hand only to accidentally hit Ambrose with a superman punch after some shenanigans from Dolph and Drew. The heels surrounded Roman and Seth from three sides of the ring and Dean came up to the fourth teasing his change of allegiance.

This expectedly did not happen and Dean helped his brothers who went for a SHIELD powerbomb on Drew only to be taken out single-handedly by Braun.

Ziggler got a near fall on Dean after a ZIg-Zag which frustrates Braun who ran into a spear through the barricade from Roman after attempting a running shoulder tackle on Dean.

After a good finishing sequence, Dean pinned Dolph after hitting the Dirty Deeds picking up the win for the SHIELD.

This was a decent match with an interesting finish. It could have been more intense and destructive at times though.

The match followed the typical six-man tag prototype which some people did not except. Overall this was a good match which could have been booked better and it certainly didn't tear the roof down.
