After the match on SmackDown, Naomi was celebrating when Sonya Deville came back out and said that she would join the Royal Rumble as a guest entrant to make sure that the former doesn't win.
The Usos and The Vikings Raiders had an encounter backstage before we headed to the ring with Sami Zayn making his entrance.
Zayn had Jinder Mahal and Shanky as his first guests on his new podcast, In-Zayn. He barely let his guests speak and kept mentioning Johnny Knoxville before Mahal said that Jackass was very popular in India.
Sami Zayn was trying to change the topic when Shinsuke Nakamura and Rick Boogs made their entrance and sent him out of the ring before heading for the following match.
