We are in Rosemont, Illinois and your announcers are Michael Cole, Byron Saxton, and John Layfield.
Brock Lesnar’s music plays and he comes to the stage to bounce before going to the ring with his advocate, Paul Heyman.
Paul reminds us who he is and that he is standing next to his client, The Nightmare of Suplex City . . . BROCK LESNAR. He says that Seth Rollins and his little band of merry men think that his client, Brock Lesnar is still in Tokyo, which goes to show you that you can put a title on anyone and at the end of the day there is some schmuck Justin Bieber wannabe who lucked into the WWE Championship.
Paul tells Seth that you are going to learn the hard way that Brock Lesnar is the Lord . . . by God, hallowed by thy name. He is not a god of love. He is not a god of family. He is not a god of charity. He is not a god of forgiveness. He is the god of violent retribution. That violent retribution will come at the expense of Seth Rollins and any human being that stands with Seth Rollins. This is the sword that shall pierce Seth Rollins’ shield.
Paul wants to show what has happened when his client took the streak from the Undertaker. Brock did not have any respect for the Undertaker, but he did not disrespect Undertaker. He wanted to conquer the streak. When Brock Lesnar took John Cena to Suplex City. John Cena did not have any respect for John Cena, but he did not disrespect him. Brock wanted the title and he took what was rightfully his.
When he showed Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania was a savage beating was, he did not have respect for Roman, but he did not disrespect him.
Paul says that not only does Brock not respect Seth Rollins, he does not like Seth Rollns. You have broken the Eleventh Commandment: Thou shall not intentionally provoke Brock Lesnar. Not only did he do it once when he cashed in at Wrestlemania. Not only did he do it twice when he weaseled out of his rematch. He did it a third time when you all ganged up on the Beast. This is a beast who is salivating for revenge against Seth Rollins.
Paul says that he is here to sell to you that on July 19th in St. Louis, at Battleground, he will get his hands on Seth Rollins and take his championship back. Paul says the title match may take place in St. Louis, but the beatings and the suplexes begin tonight. It will take place in the City Hall of Suplex City, in the Rosemont Horizon.
Paul says that Seth Rollins will be here tonight. Since Seth is going to be here, Brock is not going anywhere. Someone better tell Seth that BROCK LESNAR is here tonight.
Michael Cole mentions that Kane is not here tonight because he is on his vacation.
