#7 AJ Styles & Daniel Bryan vs. Rusev & Aiden English

A promising match was cut short by the surprise ending

English and Bryan kicked off the match and the former SmackDown GM took control of the match early with a few big hits before a huge double team move with the help of Styles.

Styles was the legal man who had English in a calf crusher but Rusev stepped in to help. Bryan wasted no time stopping Rusev in his tracks with a submission of his own and both members of Rusev Day hastily escaped the ring.

Back from commercials, Styles and English were still the legal men and English was in control with a headlock on Styles.

The WWE champion got out of it but wiped out after a failed attempt at a possible clothesline. Rusev was tagged in and he kept Styles from making the tag with a painful looking bear hug. Styles and Bryan were inches away before Rusev drove the WWE champion into the opposite corner.

English was back in the ring again as he kept the pressure on against an already out of breath Styles.

Styles made another desperate attempt at a tag but failed. Styles connected with a huge Pele kick and both men were down.

Two tags happened at the same time and Bryan immediately attacked Rusev and caught him in an armbar before English interfered, breaking it up.

Bryan fought him off and delivered the 'Yes' kicks on Rusev followed by his signature knee to the head. Nakamura appeared out of nowhere and hit Styles with a low blow while Cass delivered a big boot to the face of Daniel Bryan, ending the match in a DQ.

Nakamura headed out as Cass stared down a fallen Bryan in the ring and Styles still on the ground outside. Renee Young confronted Shinsuke about his actions and he replies: "No Speak English" and Cass was seen towering over Bryan.
