Dream asks if you can feel it.  What you are feeling now seeping into your soul is the Velveteen Dream Experience.  That feeling is known as the climax of life.  When the spotlight shines the brightest.  That is probably why Roderick Strong tried to steal it.  The Dream has never complained about having to take on more than one man at a time.  Rod, the Dream has eyes for you.  Consider this a challenge for the North American Championship.  Consider this a chance to step into the Dream's spotlight again and to be a man and perform on your own.  Unless, you are afraid to step out of the shadow known as the Undisputed Era.  That can't be it.  When you step across the ring from the Dream and you look the Dream deep into his eyes, you know, because they know.  The next thing you know is . . .
