Hunter says in six days the world will watch. In six days the biggest crowd will watch live. In six days the world will watch the spectacle that is Wrestlemania. They will watch for the WWE Title Match. It is the most important thing in this industry. Not to take away from anything else, it is the dream of everyone who will walk on the stage on Sunday. It is the dream of everyone at home. Everyone has had the dream or fantasy to hold the WWE title high above their head at Wrestlemania.
That will never happen for any of you. You don't have the ability to make your dreams a reality. Think of the odds. Roman Reigns did. He is one of those one in a million athletes. He can turn his dreams into reality. He was so good he was able to become the WWE World Champion. For all of five minutes and fifteen seconds. This Sunday, Hunter says he will walk the aisle at Wrestlemania for the twentieth time. For the ninth time he will compete for the World Title, the most of anyone in history. Hunter says it is because he is obsessed with it. He has been obsessed since Day One of being the WWE Champion. That obsession led him to the World Championship and the greatest WWE Superstar in History. He has had a stranglehold on this title and business for the last twenty years.
Hunter says he thought it was okay to put on a suit every day. Then on that announce table four months ago, Roman Reigns power bombed him. On that table, Roman Reigns lit the fire of his obsession once again. People may have forgotten who he was. Maybe it was Roman Reigns putting his hands on him, but that obsession was back and it was bigger and better than ever. It was not long before he was WWE Champion again.
Roman Reigns, you have already lost this Sunday. You have already made the fatal mistake on Sunday. You made that mistake four months ago. His obsession marks the end of your dream. That obsession will ensure that no matter what, he will walk out of Wrestlemania the WWE Champion.
Stephanie says this Sunday is not about marching bands or horns or Hell in a Cell. It is about the WWE Title, it is about her husband, it is about the Cerebral Assassin.
