Seth Rollins, Bronn Breakker, Bronson Reed and The Bloodline
Live in the arena, Seth Rollins leading Paul Heyman, Bronson Reed and Bronn Breakker are walking towards the ring with Seth’s “Burn it down” playing.
Seth extends his hand and Heyman hands him the microphone. A loud “CM Punk” chant from the crowd and Seth introduces himself. He points to the briefcase in the air and says that tomorrow night, he will take everything. He says when he wins the Money in the Bank contract, he will have total control of the entire industry. The fans chant “OTC” and Seth says he doesn’t think he can hear them, he is on the island of irrelevancy where they put him after WrestleMania.
Rollins says that absolute power and total control does not just extend to Raw but SmackDown as well and they have come here to deliver a message. He says anyone who stands in their way will suffer the same fate as anyone who has already stood in their way. Sami Zayn stood in their way, he is in the dirty. CM Punk stood in their way, poof, gone. Roman Reigns stood in their way and he is missing in action. He says Roman is not coming to save them, he doesn’t care about them, he has never cared about them. But he has cared about them.
He says he will drag them all kicking and screaming into the future if he has to. Not just for him but for the entire industry and there is no one that can stop him. Solo’s music and out he comes with Jacob Fatu and JC Mateo. They get in the ring and all six men are face to face.

He walks towards Reed and asks if he is supposed to be the honorary Uce, Sami Zayn. After all they have gone through at War Games, Reed aligns himself. He tells Seth he has a wise man and he looks at Heyman and tells him long time no see.
Seth tells Solo to choose his next words very carefully. Solo says to cut to the chase. Tomorrow night, he is climbing the ladder and grabbing the contract. All of that power and control that Seth was talking about will all be his. Seth says this is Solo’s turf, he feels threatened. He tells Solo that Bron is the future of the industry and Solo is not. He says Reed can squeeze Solo like a bug at the snap of his fingers. He tells Solo he should be threatened. But he should be worried that his own family would rather stab him in the back than have his back. Seth asks Jacob what is up, he looks like he wants to say something. He tells Fatu to take the microphone from Solo but Solo tells him to shut up. He calls Fatu the Samoan Werewolf but maybe he can become Solo’s bitch.
Rollins laugh and he tells Solo it took a lot of courage and guts to walk out and talk to him the way they did. Seth tells Solo he is threatened a little bit by one Fatu in the ring but it’s not Solo and Seth looks at Fatu. Solo takes his jacket off but in steps Bron. Fatu steps up as he and Bron are face to face. Seth steps in front of Bron and is face to face with Fatu. Solo grabs Bron and tells him to leave.
