He then asked Cena if he would accept his challenge, and he wanted an answer right now. After a pregnant pause, John Cena made his entrance with a huge brace on his bad arm. Cena said he always loves coming to Manchester, because it has so many John Cena fans...which are apparently stuck in traffic (he got booed heavily). He said Superman was here, a random guy in the crowd in a superman outfit, who actually got more applause than Cena did. Cena said he made spandex look baggy, and told someone to get him fish and chips (cringe). Cena said when he looks at Del Rio he sees a desperate man, and not the greatest athlete in Mexican History. He used to be the world champ, but now he knows the champ is here. At Survivor Series, after he beats him, all he'll be left with to hold is his flag pole. Cena then tried to pump up the quiet crowd (they piped in cheers during his promo). Superman approved of the arm wrestling contest, so Cena went ahead with it. He told Del Rio that this time he would break his arm. The ref explained the rules and Cena destroyed Del Rio in the arm wrestling contest in about half a second.

Naomi and Cameron defeated The Bellas at 2:52. Backstage, Renee Young interviewed Daniel Bryan and CM Punk. She asked them if they both had issues with the Wyatt Family. They both said yes. She asked if their obstacles put them together, and they said yes again. Bryan said the Wyatt's can beat anybody three on one, but when you put the beard and the best together, it was a whole different story. Punk said that he liked the beard and the best name, and that they were both determined to take out the Wyatt's. He said they were swamp monsters, and at Survivor Series they would take them out. After that, they would get their hands on Bray Wyatt, because the best way to kill a snake is to cut off it's head.
