The WWE Intercontinental Champion Alberto Del Rio comes out and says that although he regrets being separated from his fellow League of Nations members, he is thrilled because now the spotlight is right where it belongs. Solely on Del Rio. He gives his thanks to Rusev and Sheamus for softening up the rookie, Apollo Crews for him because as far as Alberto was concerned, Apollo had way too much momentum for his liking and now he's ripe for the picking. Apollo comes out and and gives Rusev and Sheamus credit for being some of the toughest Superstars that he has ever faced but Apollo is sure that it won't be too long until he is ready to defeat them. However, Crews points out that Del Rio has yet to beat him and how embarrassing will it be for Del Rio when he's defeated by Apollo after all of that trash talking. In the end, it will be Alberto who will be exposed as someone not on Apollo, Rusev or Sheamus' level!

Alberto starts berating Crews who then challenges Del Rio to a fight right here tonight. Del Rio declines and creates excuses like needing to take a flight to the dentist tomorrow so as to not be late and incur expensive fees. Apollo points out the cowardice of Alberto not wanting to fight which prompts Alberto to blindside Crews with a cheap shot. A brawl breaks out that Del Rio gets the best of. Will he be able to defend the Intercontinental Championship against Apollo this Sunday at Battleground?

Normal Match

Tyson Kidd vs Kalisto

Winner by pinfall: Tyson Kidd (Fisherman Neckbreaker)(*** ½ Great)
