We are in San Antonio, Texas and your announcers are Michael Cole, Byron Saxton, and John Layfield.
We start things off with Stephanie McMahon making her way to the ring.
However, we have a musical showdown because Roman Reigns’ music plays while Stephanie is still on the stage.
They make their way down to the ring and they stare each other down before Roman enters the ring first.
Roman says that he doesn’t think they need Stephanie out here tonight. It is about her father, not Stephanie tonight. He tells Stephanie that he is going to call out Vince McMahon right now.
Stephanie tells Roman that he will have to deal with disappointment all night since Vince is not here tonight. He will be here to referee the main event. She says the odds are not in Roman’s favor.
Roman says this is his life. He says if he loses, he does not have a job. If he does not have a job, he cannot support his family. Roman says this is his life. This is his family. No one is going to take that away from him.
Stephanie appreciates Roman’s passion, but she asks if people really think Roman can beat Sheamus tonight. She says it is sad and pathetic because you hang on to hope because your mundane little lives will never change. You have the hope that something will be different. Hope is not a strategy. Nobody competes with Vince McMahon and wins in the end.
You had a nice little moment when her father got arrested last week. Stephanie says that all charges have been dropped. Stephanie says that she is the boss and Roman is the help. Stephanie says she will not fire Roman. After you lose tonight and never get a title match again, she will use him. He will wrestle every night all over the world until your body breaks down and you cannot go again. Do you know what happens then? The people who chant for you now, forget you. They will cheer for the new arrogant superstar.
Stephanie says that she is going to do to Roman what her father did to his father.
Roman says you better worry about your father. If he does anything tonight, you won’t be picking him up from jail, you will be picking him up from the hospital.
We take a look what happened last week between Neville and Kevin Owens followed by Kevin Owens’ attack on Neville.
Dean Ambrose makes his way to the ring and he stops to talk to Roman before Roman goes to the back. Dean will be on commentary for the next match.
