The fresh music energized their entrance and added to the spectacle of their championship reign.

The episode also featured other notable matches, including Money in the Bank qualifying bouts and a singles match with Rusev facing Akira Tozawa. However, the tag team title triple threat remained the centerpiece of the night, showcasing The New Day’s resilience and star power as they continue to lead the WWE tag team division.
