Jerry says that when he heard Roman say 'this is my yard', but what if someone comes to claim his yard. Roman says he takes pride in what he does because of his family's legacy. Roman says he sets the bar. As long as he has wind in his lungs and blood in his veins, he will be fighting.

Jerry reminds everyone about his comments in the past that all women despise each other. Renee disagrees with Jerry.
Renee talks about the Cruiserweight Title Match.
Lawler says that Neville has been great since day one. Gallagher is getting his feet wet in the WWE and he was impressive. They talk about how Neville is in a special spot on top of the cruiserweights.
Jerry and Renee talk about the main event and how long it did not go.
Jerry says if Goldberg could do that to Lesnar, why couldn't he do it to Kevin Owens?
Renee mentions that Owens being so easily distracted by Jericho shows something about Owens.
Paul Heyman joins Renee and Jerry.
Paul asks if there are any more excuses for Kevin Owens. Paul says that would have happened whether Jericho was out there or not. Paul says no one in the locker room has been able to stand up to Goldberg. Paul says that he was speared twice and jackhammered by Goldberg. Then Brock was thrown out of the ring effortlessly by Goldberg. Paul mentions that Brock has victimized and mauled everyone but Goldberg in the WWE.
Renee asks how concerned about Wrestlemania. Paul says he is scared out of his mind, but Brock has never been more confident. This is a match that neither man can lose. If Goldberg wins, he leaves Brock Lesnar behind. Everything that Brock had done up to that moment has the asterisk, oh yeah, but then he went up against Bill Goldberg. Does Brock rise to the occasion like he has in the past? Brock Lesnar walked into Wrestlemania and conquered the streak. If Brock can conquer Goldberg, he gets the Universal title and he gets back the legacy and he is the conqueror again.
Renee asks what happens to Brock if he loses. Paul says that could be the end of Brock as someone in the WWE. Paul says you will have two legacies that will finally go head up against each other. One will stand above the other, but the one who does not go home as the Universal Champion, they have to look in the mirror and say that they lost to a person they despise. Paul says that is the magic of Brock Lesnar versus Bill Goldberg.
