The Viking Raiders def. The New Day in a Viking Rules Match
With countless Viking implements of destruction surrounding the squared circle, Eric & Ivar kicked off SmackDown with a Viking Rules Match, a contest where there were no rules and falls count anywhere, against their bitter rivals The New Day.

In the final moments, The Viking Raiders took out Kofi Kingston by hurling a shield at him while he was in mid-air. They then executed Ragnarök on Woods from their long boat and slammed him through two stacked tables at ringside for the victory.
