We begin with a look back at last week's steel cage match.
Your announcers are Jimmy Smith, Byron Saxton, and Corey Graves.
Bobby Lashley makes his way to the ring in the RAWEST suit ever with Montel Vontavious Porter.
Lashley says last week he showed exactly what happens when you disrespect the All Mighty. Porter says Lashley is the single most terrifying man in the entire WWE. I know that because people are terrified to say his name. It is like he is the Candyman. You don't have to say his name three times to show. Bad things will happen. Porter says there is an issue with respect for this generation fo superstars. You have Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins coming out every week whining and complaining to get into a title match. Do you know who doesn't complain? Bobby Lashley. Do you know who doesn't whine? Bobby Lashley. Last week, he sent a message to Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and Big E, but he also sent a message to Sonya Deville and Adam Pearce. He needs to be added to the WWE Championship match at Day One because there is no better way to start off the year than with Bobby Lashley as your champion.
Kevin Owens comes out to the stage and Kevin says he never said any of your names and I haven't paid attention to anything you said for two years. How is that disrespectful? Last week, you attacked me when I was down to try to weasel your way into the match. Seth Rollins earned his way into the match at Day One. I earned my way into the title match. You didn't earn your way. I need to win the title so WWE can have a champion they are proud of. You don't belong in that match. It is hard enough to win a triple threat match, but if you are in the match, it makes it harder.
Seth Rollins interrupts.and he says we cannot start the show until the star of the show comes out and that is me. Seth says he admires Bobby's suit. He says while he despises Kevin, he has to take his side on this issue. You don't deserve to be in his title match at Day One, just like Kevin does not belong in the match.
Porter says they are terrified. Lashley says if they don't want him in the match, then come to the ring to do something.
Kevin says they need to work together against Bobby Lashley because he cannot take them. Kevin tells Seth to go first and Seth argues with Kevin.
Porter says that when Bobby hits Seth, Kevin will run.
Not to feel left out, the other man who is in a title match at Day One who is not responsible for who is in the match, the WWE Champion Big E comes out.
Big E says he sees his favorite collection of idiots. You might be quaking at being in the ring with Bobby Lashley, but I beat Bobby to become the WWE Champion.
Bobby points out that he was injured and had wrestled a match.
Big E reminds Bobby he beat him in a steel cage and he has no problem doing it one more time.
Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville make their way to the ring and Adam says if anyone lays a finger on anyone, there will be severe consequences. Adam says they have no problem issuing fines or suspensions.
Sonya says that a Fatal Four Way Match sounds good and Bobby Lashley will be added to the championship match. Adam says it will happen IF Bobby can defeat Big E, Kevin Owens, and Seth Rollins. Adam says Lashley has to defeat them all in singles matches tonight.
