Alberto Del Rio’s music plays and he jumps his cue as he comes to the ring with Zeb Colter.

Like the media does to separate and divide, he has some advice for Miz from him, Alberto, and MexAmerica, they refuse to participate in this charade.
Zeb says Miz can call it whatever he wants. He can call it Blue’s Clues or he can call it Sesame Street. You can call it Up and Over the Hill to Grandmomma’s House. The show is judged by the content and the last time it he saw it, it was crap.

Miz tells Truth about the tournament and how he isn’t involved.
Truth says this is on him. Truth says ‘My Bad’ and he wishes Dean and Roman good luck, but he does not wish Alberto or Kevin good luck as he goes to the back.
Miz asks if anyone has any respect for MizTV. Miz reminds everyone about the format and if the finals could be friend versus friend or champion versus champion. Then you are supposed to face off.
