Match

Gulak knocked Corbin to the outside and drop kicked him over the announce table. Smackdown went to commercial with Gulak standing on the table looking down at Corbin. Back from the break, Gulak had Corbin in a hold in the center of the ring.   Corbin took over the match with the spot where he slides out of the ring, goes around the turnbuckle, and jumps back in with a clothesline. On the outside of the ring, Gulak hit a dragonscrew leg whip into the steel steps. Gulak followed up with a clothesline from the top rope. Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro came out, took out Daniel Bryan, and distracted Gulak. This gave Corbin the opening to push Gulak into the post and secure the pinfall victory.
