Can Keith Lee punch his ticket to Clash of Champions?

Last week, Keith Lee attempted to earn himself a potential WWE Championship Match in a battle with Drew McIntyre. However, RETRIBUTION crashed Raw and brought the battle to a premature end. Fortunately, The Limitless One’s WWE Title hopes are not dashed. Lee will face McIntyre again tonight and if he wins, and Randy Orton is unable to compete at Clash of Champions, Lee will face McIntyre for the WWE Championship. Will The Limitless One make the most of this golden opportunity?

She goes on about how money won't change anything and they're done being stepped on to get some imaginary brass ring. Dominik Dijakovic speaks now and goes on about how they're going to train the lifeblood of WWE. Dijakovic has some face paint over the top of his head. They're all wearing masks. Mercedes Martinez and Dio Maddin are the others who are clear. RETRIBUTION will make you pay for your sins, Dijakovic says. The other man is harder to make out as his mask covers more of his face. The music suddenly interrupts and out comes The Hurt Business to the stage - MVP, Shelton Benjamin, Cedric Alexander and WWE United States Champion Bobby Lashley.

The Hurt Business marches to the ring but RETRIBUTION retreats to the floor in front of the announcers. MVP says RETRIBUTION has no heart when the realness shows up.

- Back from the break and the 5 RETRIBUTION members are backstage. Dominik Dijakovic speaks. He says The Hurt Business could've been a part of the solution but once again they bend their knee to WWE's demands and are part of the problem. While others wait out in the cold for an opportunity, The Hurt Business lines their pockets with WWE's money to pay for their thousand dollar suits. The Hurt Business didn't ask for this opportunity out of hate or anger, they asked for it out of greed, but their payment will not come in the form of money, it will come in the form of a match against us, and we will pay you in RETRIBUTION. Tom says the match has not been confirmed yet.

- We go back to the ring and Kevin Owens is out for another must see edition of The KO Show. He jokes about taking out Aleister Black or Mr. Hot Topic last week.

Shane figured we should sample the goods tonight, so he brought Dabba with him. The music hits and out comes Dabba-Kato. The big man slowly marches down the ramp, stopping to stare ahead. We get a video package of highlights from his recent RAW Underground dominance.

Rollins says it's no secret he's had The Mysterios' number for a while now. He thought the torment would be over after he won the Steel Cage match last week over Dominik Mysterio. Rollins goes on and says something about the Mysterio Family has been bothering him for some time, but he was inspired to look further into it, inspired by the WWE website after they posted some photos of the family. Rollins says it was like a light bulb went off and he feels like the world needs to know the truth. He shows us a photo on the big screen. The photo has Rey Mysterio, Dominik Mysterio, Angie and Aalyah.

Rollins tells everyone to look at Dominik and then at Rey. He had some people do some digging and in this folder, he has the results of the investigation. But before he delivers the investigation to fans, he would like to extend a courtesy to the family so they can come out here and find out the truth from Rollins in person. He owes them that at least. He calls for the family to come out so they can hear this in person. He says they know they can trust him. The music hits and out comes the family to the stage. Rey says this must be important to have them all come out. He informs Seth that they are tired of his mind games and they intend to give him a beating like they did with Murphy.

He calls it a beautiful thing and says that's why they deserve the truth. Rollins says he has the results of a DNA test in the folder. He knows this has been done before but times have changed and DNA technology has come a long way since then. He says we need the answer to if Rey is really Dominik's father. Rey tells Rollins to cut the BS. Rollins says the fans and the family deserve the truth. The truth is... Rollins pulls a paper out of the holder. He says the DNA test results are conclusive - Rey is not the father of Dominik. Rollins laughs and the crowd boos him. Rey says Seth really brought them out here for that. Does Rollins really want to go down this road again? This didn't work before and it won't work now, Rey says. He tells Rollins to quit running his family's name through the mud. Rollins says maybe he did make a mistake. He asked his guy to look into the Mysterio kid, but maybe it's Aalyah who is not Rey's daughter. Rollins says if the test isn't enough, he's got some concrete footage to back it up.

Rollins shows us how Aalyah briefly checked on Murphy after last week's Steel Cage match. Rollins says that doesn't look like something a Mysterio would do. Aalyah wasn't consoling a family member, she was consoling his disciple. Rollins asks Aalyah what was going on there. Rey says Rollins talks to him, not her. Rey says he and his daughter already spoke about last week, and it's nothing Rollins needs to know. He raised her to be compassionate and caring, something Rollins knows nothing about. He tells Rollins to keep her name out of his mouth. Rey says she's just 19 years old and knows nothing about their world. Rey turns and looks at Aalyah but she walks off to the back. Angie follows. Dominik stands with his dad. Rey leaves to the back now and Dominik follows. Rollins says he's sorry. He just came out here to inform, he didn't come out here to drive a wedge in the family but he guesses that happens sometimes, right? Even a family as strong as The Mysterios. Rollins looks at the camera and says he's sure this has probably even happened to some of the and and their families. He says he's sorry again and puts the mic down. A somber Rollins marches to the back as his music hits. Rollins stops on the ramp and smirks some.
