Roman Reigns makes is way to the ring.
Roman says it is funny. Everyone wants his attention, but y’all are the only ones he wants to pay attention to. We got the secondary champ Sami Zayn running his mouth last week. We have the biggest haters, the 946. They have been getting at his Bloodline for a minute and what happened when he showed up? We whooped your ass in San Diego.
Sami Zayn’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
Sami says he finds it a little crazy that you are wasting your breath talking about the 946 when they have their match on Saturday. You heard what I had to say last week. Sami says he said that stuff and he would have said it to Roman’s face. He says Roman earned the right not to be in Fresno and he didn’t have to show up in Brooklyn. Sami says they should do it like men and say it to each other’s face. Family to family. Champion to champion.
Sami says Roman remembered that. Everybody else remembers that match. It should have been a joke, but the fact that you remember it five years later says something. They will remember that match in ten or twenty years. It will go down as one of the most memorable matches in history. Who remembers your match at Wrestlemania 38? Nobody. They remember what Sami did. The most memorable thing people remember about you is getting hit by a chair and Sami says he swung it. Sami says he is not going to be disrespected and he will not be denied as the WWE Champion. No one claims credit for his hard work. Sami says he deserves Roman’s undivided attention.
Roman says the only thing you deserve from him is thank you. If I didn’t beat Brock, that title would not exist and would not be around your waist. After all that hard work, you dwindled it away. You come out and bitch and moan. You are a little hoe. Roman says he does not acknowledge hoes. This is your last week on the Island of Relevancy.
Roman wants Brooklyn to acknowledge him.
We have a video package for the Intercontinental Championship Match.
Ethan says one would assume he would be in a good mood because he finally got his title match. He says his mood has not changed. For the last few months, I have chased this opportunity while Chad Gable has been handing out title matches to undeserving talent. Talent like Dragon Lee. Talent like Rey Mysterio. The truth is this man believes that he is leaving some sort of legacy with this body of work. You are mot leaving anything until you beat him.
Ethan tells Chad to listen to him. The world witnessed you achieving your goal in your home town with your family in the ring. Your dreams came true. After tonight, the dreams and spot on the poster will be gone because of him.
