The show kicked off with Raw general manager Mick Foley saying that one of his New Year resolutions was to make sure that Kevin Owens defends the Universal Championship on his own against Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble. As Chris Jericho has helped Owens to retain the title in the past few months, Foley said Y2J will be locked inside a shark cage for this fight.

Next, Owens and Jericho entered the ring. Owens asked if Foley thought it was funny to put Jericho in a shark cage hundreds of feet above ground. Jericho said it was funny how Foley has abused his power to grant Reigns another shot at the Universal Championship and also Seth Rollins still has not been punished for attacking him a few weeks back.

Foley then said Bill Goldberg will be guest for first-ever Kevin Owens Show. Stephanie McMahon announced that Reigns will defend his United States Championship against Jericho, and even if former gets disqualified or counted out he loses the title.

Next, Goldberg entered the ring and told Owens that he was his first target at Royal Rumble Battle Royal. An argument between the two superstars broke out but Brock Lesnar's advocate Paul Heyman interrupted and said that the Beast Incarnate will emerge victorious in the elimination match. Goldberg told Heyman that he will beat Lesnar again and added that he has a date with Owens at WrestleMania 33.
