Kalisto, Alberto Del Rio and Neville progressed into the quarter-finals of the WWE World Heavyweight Title Tournament as the competition continued on Smackdown.

Lucha Dragons grappler Kalisto pulled off the shock of the night by pinning Ryback following a Salida del Sol and will now meet Del Rio in the last eight on Raw after the Mexican pipped Stardust.

Neville, meanwhile, defeated fellow Brit King Barrett with a Red Arrow - Barrett still clearly feeling the effects of being slapped by Manchester United and England striker Wayne Rooney - to book a showdown with Intercontinental Champion Kevin Owens.

Cesaro against Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose versus Dolph Ziggler are Monday's other quarter-final ties, with a new champion to be crowned when the finals take place at Survivor Series on November 22, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

Elsewhere, The Wyatt Family had a mixed evening on Smackdown, recording a singles victory, a tag-team loss and learning that The Undertaker had agreed to battle them at Survivor Series.

Braun Strowman made light work of Fandango in his first one-on-one bout on the blue brand but then caused Luke Harper and Erick Rowan to lose their contest against The Usos by joining his leader Bray Wyatt, in interfering.

Strowman, Harper, Rowan and Wyatt continued to batter Jimmy and Jey - until The Undertaker's voice boomed around the arena, the Phenom confirming a Fall Classic dustup was on.
