The Usos further attacked Balor but he was able to come back. Balor drove Reigns through the announce table and also put him back in the ring. As Balor stood on the ropes to hit the Coup de Grace the top rope broke and Balor ended up crashing in the ring.

Reigns took full use of this opportunity and also grabbed the victory. Towards the end it felt like Balor might just get the job done but fate was in Reigns corner as he prevailed on top again.
