The Shield, the greatest faction in the history of the WWE, created by him. Seth says that he has the right to destroy his own creation. It takes an architect to put together a faction like the Shield. Do you think Dean Ambrose was involved with it?

Dean is a lunatic. In a week on his own, he would be face down in a ditch.

Roman Reigns, the golden boy. When you don’t have something to harness Reigns, he is worthless.

They are nothing without him. They owe every ounce of success to him.

You should learn something from everything you do. To be a success, you have to evolve and adapt. Seth says that he bought in to the Evolution of Seth Rollins. Another thing that no one will admit. It took a lot of guts to do what he did last week. Everyone is fixated on the fact that he stabbed his brothers in the back and turned on them.

Maybe Roman and Dean thought they were brothers, but to him, they were just business partners. Seth says that he severed a business relationship. For two years, every night, he came out here and he put his fist out and said ‘Believe in the Shield’. Every night, he meant what he is going to say now.

You and everybody else better start believing in Seth Rollins.

Seth says that is all Michael wanted to hear. Then he said that he heard what Dean said and they were going to hear what he had to say and then kick the hell out of him. Seth throws his chair to the floor and he says that he said his peace.

Seth wants to know where Dean and Roman are.
