Tag Team Match: The Usos vs Bray Wyatt & Daniel Bryan
The Usos awaited Wyatt's & Bryan's ring entrance to kick off the show, with Bryan working well with the clan's leader, matching his ruthless aggression throughout the bout. The Usos managed to get the upper-hand and set up both of their opponents for a Double Body-Splash but were attacked by Luke Harper and Erick Rowan before they could hit their moves, giving the siblings the disqualification victory.
Winner: The Usos via disqualification
Damien Sandow vs John Cena
Sandow received an opportunity to end his current rut and gain a measure of revenge after failing to cash in his MITB briefcase in a rematch against John Cena, who was preparing for his match against WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton at the Royal Rumble. Sandow put up a good fight, trying to make Cena submit with his own version of the STF only to have the former WWE champion power out and finish his opponent off with the Attitude Adjustment in front of his father watching in the front row.
Winner: John Cena
Backstage, WWE Director of Operations Kane questions Raw General Manager's Brad Maddox's ability to enforce the rules after the result of the opening match.

Six Man Tag Team Match: The Shield (United States Champion Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) vs CM Punk & The New Age Outlaws (Road Dogg & "Badass" Billy Gunn)
Punk continued his war with The Shield this week, teaming up with The New Age Outlaws, but paid a price for teaming up with the former D-Generation X duo. Punk, in trouble during the match, reached out for the tag only to be left hanging by the former five-time WWE Tag Team champions, who deserted Punk, leaving him his own against Triple H's "Hounds of Justice".

After the match, Reigns and The Shield Tripled Power-Bombed Punk to add salt to his wounds.
Winner: The Shield

After the match, the champion took out his frustration on John Cena's father, who was watching the matches ringside as a fan, attacking him before making his way back to the locker room.

Winner: Alberto Del Rio
Steel Cage Match: The Usos vs Bray Wyatt & Daniel Bryan
The Usos managed to match Wyatt's and Bryan's physicality throughout their match, using their speed and the confines of the cage to their advantage. All four men scaled the cage late in the match, with both tag team partners needing to leave the cage and touch the floor to be declared winners. But the Usos, clicking as a team, knocked Bryan off the side of the cage, crashing into the Wyatt patriarch and costing the Wyatts the match, suffering their third loss since Bryan joined the clan. After the match, locked inside the cage together, Bryan attacked Wyatt, punishing him with a series of kicks and knees, with Luke Harper and Erick Rowan unable to help, before climbing to the top of the cage and leading a "YES!" chant with the crowd to end the show.
Winner: The Usos
