We are in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and your announcers are Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Renee Young.
The Universal Champion Seth Rollins makes his way to the ring.
Seth says he wants to be honest, but last night he didn't know if he had what it took to beat Brock Lesnar. The last few weeks have been the toughest. He was not at 100% last night and he stared Brock in the eyes. In this ring, Brock is everything that he is touted to be. He is a freaking beast. When he emptied the tank out, something happened. You guys came alive. In that moment, you took him to a place he has never been before in his entire career. You took him to a place he couldn't go on his own. You took him to a place only we could go together. At that moment, he knew what it took to slay the beast. Seth says he remembered that he is Seth 'Freakin' Rollins and that is why he is standing here as the Universal Champ.
AJ Styles' music plays and he comes out with Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows. They make their way to the ring.
AJ tells Seth that they would like to be the first to congratulate you. AJ says here is where it gets tricky. You don't have to worry about Brock Lesnar, but you have to worry about the man standing in front of you. Ever since he came to his senses, he has a lot to prove. AJ says he wants to challenge Seth tonight. He wants to prove that he is much much much much of a better champion than Seth.
Seth says he has always had a ton of respect for AJ, but not any more. It doesn't matter how beaten up he is, he does not back down from a fight. Later tonight, he will teach AJ a lesson in respect so challenge accepted.

Angelo asks if it happens to everyone, even Samoa Joe.
