Paul asks them if they want to talk about Seth Rollins. The crowd says no so Paul says his greatness is above their pay grade. Paul says he would love to talk about Roman, but it is disrespectful to speak of the injured when he got his ass stretchered out of Paris by Bronson Reed. Paul suggests talking about dog that is going to main event Wrestlemania five or ten straight years and lead WWE into the 2030s and 2040s, Bron Breakker? Perhaps they should talk about the conspiracy theories and rumors surrounding Brock Lesnar? Since that seems to be…

Paul says Brock is not here, but what makes you think you are not in danger.

Paul tells you Bron telling you that you are a Wrestlemania main event waiting to happen. He says the same thing to Bronson too. Cody says he would have killed to be a Heyman guy when he was your age. Cody says he is the son of a booker and you could see why they were doing it. You can’t do that with Paul. Who is Paul Heyman loyal to? Cody says he can guarantee it ain’t you.
Bron removes his shirt and Bronson moves closer to Cody as well.
Cody shows that he can take off his jacket and he gives Booker his watch.
Cody says it looks like you want a fight. Cody says it probably isn’t a good decision for him, but . . .
