-Edge talks about the 900th episode of Smackdown Live and says he bleeds blue and helped make the show and cares a lot about the outcome of Sunday's match. Edge brings out Team Smackdown! who seem to have recovered from last night's beat down by Team RAW. Edge says he's been watching Smackdown since the brand split and shakes James Ellsworth's hand, AJ getting very upset then Ellsworth grabs the mic,talking about how he's been a fan of him for his entire life. James wants to do a pose with Edge, AJ saying it was stupid then and stupid now and no one cares about Ellsworth or him and says he should be asking questions to someone who matters on the team. Edge asks Randy if he's okay and implies that he's a puppet, Bray saying that the Randy that Edge once knew is dead and this Sunday people will see a much more dangerous version of Randy. Edge says Shane has his work cut out for him, Shane saying they can hate each other, just as long as they are on the same page Sunday, saying AJ might be the champion, but this is their team and the best show and Shane says they'll be competing on Shane'O Macdown, AJ saying it was stupid. They all argue as The Undertaker comes out to the ring to the biggest pop of the night. 

Undertaker says there could be no one better to be comissioner of Smackdown as the man who has no fear, talking about Shane. He says that Wrestlemania will no longer define who he is, he's back, taking souls and digging holes and that Survivor Series was where The Undertaker was born and Smackdown! has always been his home. Undertaker says there's no reason to fear failure at Survivor Series Sunday, but if they fail Sunday, they have reason to fear him. Undertaker says that Team RAW had better rest in peace as we go off the air.
