Your announcers are Michael Cole and Wade Barrett.
We start off with a look at last week's "Where's Jey" saga.
Paul Heyman is in the ring and he introduces himself. He says he is here to drop some pearls of wisdom. Ever since Brock Lesnar and him conquered the Undertaker's streak at Wrestlemania, I do not give predicitions, I do spoilers. I have a lot tonight. The Island of Relevancy is under a two prong attack. On Smackdown, Sami Zayn. A crazed, psychopathic rebel. An inzayn competitor. Here is your first spoiler. Sami Zayn is not here this evening. Sami Zayn challenging Roman Reigns . . . can you imagine Sami Zayn as your Undisputed WWE Universal Champion? The crowd likes the idea.
The gates of the Island of Relvancy are under attack on Raw by Cody Rhodes. A man who backed him into a corner on Raw and says what Cody said. Paul says he didn't know that The American Dream raised a dumbass. Personal? How could it be more personal? They are the centerpiece of the Island of Relevancy. This is the air that they breathe. It is the reason for their existence and why they are in WWE. It is the crest of the Anoa'i and Fatu dynasties.
Sami, at Elimination Chamber and Cody Rhodes at Wrestlemania. Let's be clear. Without these titles, there is no Island of Relevancy. WIthout these titles, there is no Bloodline. Without these titles, there is no Paul Heyman. WIthout these titles, there is no Roman Reigns.
A hooded man shows up behind Paul and the crowd goes crazy. He takes off the hood and it is Sami Zayn.
Paul turns around and he is in shock.
Sami looks around and he puts out his hand for the mic and Paul eventually hands it to Sami.
Sami tells Paul to calm down. You are sweating and you are nervous. Sami says he is not going to hurt Paul, but he could have. You talk about this being the lifeblood of the Island of Relevancy and I could have dropped you like a bag of dirt. If this was a month ago, Solo would have been out with a Samoan Spike. If this was a month ago, Jimmy would have super kicked me. If this was a month ago, Jey would be out there too.
You are out here alone now. You know what everybody knows. Roman's days as Universal Champion are numbered. Roman is off the rails and everything is crumbling. Sami says he left the Bloodline. Jey walked out on his own and it was his decision. What happens next? What does Jimmy do next? Does he side with his abusive cousin or his twin brother who he shared the womb with? What about Solo? The moment Solo could think for himself, Roman keeps Solo tight. How long until that blows over? Two years plus you have been looking at Roman a little weird and creepy. You look at him like the sun shines out his ass. Here you are, talking about life after Roman Reigns. Life after the WWE titles are gone. You know what everyone else in the Bloodline knows. The Bloodline is on its way out.
Sami tells Paul he knows that Paul does spoilers, not predictions. I will tell you how many days Roman has left. Eight. In Montreal. That is how much time Roman Reigns has left.
Paul asks for the mic back and Sami hugs Paul and tells him to listen carefully. Tell Roman he doesn't have to worry about Cody because he will be the one to take him down.
Sami drops the mic and he leaves the ring.
We see the Brawling Brutes and Drew causing a ruckus in the back and they get a very old employee to join them in the screaming.
