Reigns will face off with Elias at the show. This follows the opening segment of SmackDown this week that saw Shane McMahon call out Reigns following his attack on Vince McMahon last week. As the two were about to face off in the ring, Reigns was blindsided by Elias from behind.
Later in the show, Elias challenged Reigns to a match at the PPV. Shane McMaon went on to make the match official. Kayla Braxton interviewed Reigns backstage as he accepted the match.
