The Bar said that Kofi owed them everything and claimed that Kofi would have lost last night against Seth Rollins if not for them. They challenged The New Day to a 6-man tag team match, and they had Drew McIntyre on their side.

Shane McMahon addresses the WWE Universe
Shane McMahon was out and gave us a recap of all the title wins that took place in WrestleMania but then said that those matches were not why everyone was there. He said they were there instead to watch him beat The Miz which he did. He brought up Miz's 62-year-old dad who punched him in the eye before Shane took him down.
He then called in the ring announcer who said that the fans threatened him if he introduced Shane as the best in the world. Shane said Hamilton didn't have to care about the fans and made him introduce him over and over while dragging him by the collar and then his tie.
They made it to the stage and Hamilton finally got it right before Shane walked off and the crowd was too confused about what just happened to even boo Shane properly.
The Usos (c) vs. The Hardy Boyz - SmackDown Tag Team Championship match
Matt Hardy kicked off the match and tagged in Jeff for a double team on Jey before Jimmy came in with a big right hook. Hardys made another tag and Matt hit a big elbow from up top. Jimmy hit a Samoan Drop on Matt and then drove him into the barricade outside.

Lars Sullivan from NXT showed up on the main roster for the second time, right after the Hardys won the titles and ran over the new champs. He took out both brothers and went up top for the headbutt on Matt before walking out, leaving the downed brothers in the ring.
Becky faces yet another interruption
Becky Lynch was out next to celebrate her win again after she was interrupted last night by Lacey Evans. She said that there was already a line forming in the locker room to challenge her and she promised to make the title run a legendary one before making her way back to the ramp where Lacey Evans came out with another right hook to the face of Becky. The double champ was fuming with anger as Evans escaped the stage before Becky could gather herself.
Up next was the main event of the night, The New Day vs. The Bar & Drew McIntyre.
The New Day and The Bar were all set up for their match when Sami Zayn came out but then said, "you're not worth it" before walking out.
