We are back and AJ Lee is skipping in the back and Renee ambushes her and welcomes her back. Paige wants to know who invited her. AJ says she is not good at doing what she is told. AJ says that she saw what the Bellas have done and she wanted to give the Divas a Chance. Paige says that she respects AJ.

It is time for The Daily Show with Seth Rollins and he is in the ring with Joey and Jamie behind him.

Seth welcomes everyone and he reminds everyone who he is. Seth points out that they are in Newark, New Jersey, but it is not a glorious place. It is the armpit of America. For the last two weeks, alleged funny man Jon Stewart has been calling him out and saying he wanted a piece of him.

We take a look at Seth Rollins appearing on The Daily Show last week (in case you were not watching the start of the show).

Seth says he verbally dominated Jon Stewart on his own show and he is here to prove that he can do Jon’s job far better than he ever could.

The first topic is ‘Where is Jon Stewart?” Jon talked a tough game a few weeks ago, but now he is dead silent. He says that Jon is a wuss and a phony, but what do you expect, he is from New Jersey.

Seth says to give Jon credit where it is deserved. He decided not to show up, just like America didn’t show up to the movie he directed last year.

Seth says he would make sure that Jon retired early if he showed up because he would not be able to do a show with his jaw wired shut.

Jon shows up and he makes his way to the ring.

Seth welcomes Jon to the show.

Jon says that this is something else that Seth did not earn.

Seth says that he is proving to the world that he can do this job better than Jon.

Jon says that Seth is proving that he can barely read.

Seth asks Jon if he is trying to embarrass him.

Jon says that Seth is dressed like a SWAT Team Stripper. Jon says that the people of New Jersey aren’t afraid of the curb stomp because that is the way they greet everyone in the morning . . . for brunch. Jon remembers the wrestlers who earned it like Bruno Sammartino and Gorilla Monsoon. You never fought your way up like Mick Foley. You never went against the establishment like Stone Cold. You never fought through injury after injury to become a great like the Undertaker.

You thought you could take a short cut by cheating and becoming the poster boy for the Authority. Jon says that posters get taken down when people get tired of him.

Jon says that he has something that Seth never will and that is respect. Jon says he will prove it. The Authority doesn’t care about you. If they cared, who is fighting for the title at Wrestlemania? Is it Seth Rollins? Is it Lesnar and Reigns? If you are better in the ring, why aren’t you fighting for the title?

No matter what happens at Wrestlemania, you will have nothing. You will only be holding your briefcase. It is something you didn’t earn. Jon says that he was in Boston and you did not earn that briefcase. He says that if Kane did not . . .

Jon gets up and he is cornered by Joey, Jamie, and Seth. Seth grabs Jon and . . .

Randy Orton’s music plays and Seth looks at the ramp. Jon with a low kick and he gets out of the ring.

Orton goes halfway to the ring and then he turns around and goes to the back.

We go to commercial.

We are back and we take a look back at what happened when Comedy Central invaded a WWE ring and we see the ding ding shot of the year.

Renee Young interviews Jon and she asks about the impact he left on Seth.

Jon says it was a left foot to the groinal area. Renee asks Jon if he is going to stick around in the WWE while Jon looks for a way to escape.

Dolph Ziggler with a super kick and he takes the title belt.

Daniel has the crowd chanting Yes while Dolph holds the title.

It is time to see the newest name to be added to the list of 2015 WWE Hall of Fame Inductees. It is Alundra Blayze.

Seth is in the office and he says that he cannot believe that Jon Stewart came into his ring and embarrassed him.

Randy Orton comes out and he says that he saved Seth’s career. If you had punched Jon, you would have been sued and you would have lost your job. Where is the thanks? Randy says that if Seth needs any help tonight, all you have to do is ask.

Kane and Big Show enter and they say they have Seth’s back. Jamie tells Orton they won’t need everybody out there.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Paul Heyman is in the ring. He is alone and he introduces himself and reminds us of his client for whom he advocates.

Paul says he came her to the rancid city of Newark to set the record straight and address the rumors. It is true, his client BROCK LESNAR will be at Wrestlemania. Believe that. His client BROCK LESNAR will be anywhere he damn pleases before Wrestlemania. He will be anywhere he damn pleases after Wrestlemania. He will be the Undisputed WWE Champion because he will be champion as long as he damn well pleases . . . BELIEVE. Paul’s mic goes out and he says the sound guy must be from New Jersey.

You bought into the fantasy of Daniel Bryan at Fastlane. You hopes and dreams were pinned on Daniel Bryan, but if he ever faced his client, he would be squashed like a cockroach under the boot of BROCK LESNAR. Now we have Roman Reigns. . .

Paul asks for a new mic and he gets it from Lilian and he says it is about time she did something right.

You have all bought into Roman Reigns and they have bought the pyro and confetti for the celebration. You have all believed that. Paul said last week that no one would be able to beat Roman Reigns. Paul says they all walk to the side when Roman walks in the back because he is a bad ass Samoan with a chip on his shoulder. It is all because he knows that Roman cannot beat Brock Lesnar.

There are two ways it can work at Wrestlemania. One . . . Brock takes apart Roman Reigns violently like he did to John Cena at SummerSlam or Royal Rumble. Or two, he Ronda Rousey’s your ass.

You are going to get your ass beat at Wrestlemania by Brock Lesnar. You are going to get emasculated and conquered by BROCK LESNAR. Believe that.

Roman Reigns’ music plays and he makes his way to the ring because it is time for the main event.

Paul goes to the back as we go to commercial.
