Prior to the match, the duo both had a tense exchange with WWE Champion Drew Mcintyre and Sheamus hit Lee with a Brogue Kick to gain an advantage. While Lee would get back into the match, the opening minutes were all Sheamus, who even took flight and hit Lee into the table.

Lee would get a near fall after landing a running crossbody on Sheamus, but he couldn’t keep the “Celtic Warrior” down. Sheamus was stunned after a White Noise didn’t notch him the title shot. Lee would then hit a Spirit Bomb to get the win.
An absolute COLLISION.
It's ALL about facing @DMcIntyreWWE for the #WWEChampionship next week on #WWERaw Legends Night for @RealKeithLee and @WWESheamus! pic.twitter.com/4WNfn1o9Bc
