He says Stewart should beg him for forgiveness or turn around and not show up, and he says everyone is here to see him because he’s unstoppable. Roman Reigns cuts him off and tells Rollins to continue, and Rollins gets mad at the interruption and says he can outwork everyone here. Rollins brags about himself, and he says he can out wrestle Reigns, and he’s also holding a briefcase that guarantees he is the next WWE Champion. He says Reigns will probably claim that himself, but Reigns can’t beat Brock Lesnar, and he can.
Rollins says he can also beat Reigns, but Reigns says Rollins never got the job done at the Royal Rumble against Brock, and he has another challenge for him. Reigns asks if Rollins could cash in and make the Wrestlemania title match a triple threat, and Rollins says he could, but he won’t. He says he’s picking his spot for the right time, and maybe he is waiting for the champ to least expect it. Reigns says maybe he will punch Rollins in the mouth, so Rollins shoves him and says ‘try me,’ and Reigns decks him. Reigns connects with a few Superman punches and a spear on J&J Security, then celebrates as Rollins runs up the ramp.
Randy Orton finds Seth Rollins and yells at J&J for not helping Rollins effectively, and he says he agrees with Rollins. He says he should go to the Authority and demand a match with Reigns, but Rollins says he will handle this one on his own.

He shows a casket and says he built it just for Taker, and he could be here appreciating it, but he sits in silence. Bray says everything comes at a price and pulls up a gasoline canister, and he says fire has no prejudice or feelings; it just destroys everything in its path… just like him.

He puts the match over as the fans boo him, then Stephanie McMahon walks out and asks who gets to pick their matches, and Cena sarcastically replies they all do it. He says declaring a spot in the Battle Royal is what they’ve all done, but Stephanie says it sounds like Cena is trying to desparage the match and the man is named after.
Stephanie says Andre was her friend and shows a picture of her with Andre as a kid, and he’s not getting the spot, but Cena says she looks like a bitch then too. Stephanie says women of power usually get referred to like that, then Cena says his record should get him in the match. Stephanie says he isn’t in their good favor right now, but Cena tells her to stop the crap because this is all about Wrestlemania. Stephanie says Cena being left off Wrestlemania doesn’t matter, because he doesn’t define WWE and they’ve always thrived no matter who is here. She says maybe they’ll leave him off the show because it sounds like the fans want that.
Stephanie says Cena should think about where he would be without them, not the other way around, then Curtis Axel comes out and says AxelMania is running wild!

He says he offered the same opportunity to Sting, and said Sting’s career could live on forever, but Sting traded it for one moment at Wrestlemania. He says he gets it, but Sting picked the wrong guy, and he will make sure he changes Sting’s career forever. HHH says everyone has a theory about why Sting never came to WWE, then he invites Booker T in the ring since he knew Sting well in WCW. Booker enters the ring and HHH says he heard him say Sting wanted to be here, but HHH used politics to keep him out, and he wants Booker’s real opinion right now.

He says they can believe that, because they thought Daniel Bryan, the ultimate underdog, would win at Fastlane too. Heyman says Brock would’ve crushed him like a bug, and they shouldn’t buy into Roman Reigns because it’s not happening. Heyman says no one will dispute his claim of Brock conquering Reigns, because nothing he said is false.
