The cage above the ring at the SmackDown taping was simply used for the dark match main event pitting Dean Ambrose, Big Show, Dolph Ziggler and Ryback against the Wyatt Family.
The match began after the Wyatts came out and attacked Ambrose, during which the cage dropped. The rest of the faces came down to the ring to help and a match comments. Ambrose, Show, Ziggler and Ryback won after Ambrose pinned Erick Rowan.
