– We see CM Punk standing by the parking lot door. Punk tells Adam Pearce that it’s on sight when Seth Rollins arrives to the arena.
Jey Uso, LA Knight, The Vision Segment
Jey Uso: Hey, my bad, Paris, but tonight we ain’t gonna run it back, because I was supposed to be standing in front of you tonight with the World Heavyweight Championship across my waist, and instead I got some lego tape on my waist, you know. But I am running it back through my mind, uce. What if I stood out of Roman’s match, probably would’ve been alright, you know. What if I’d listen to his advice instead of trying to help him? But if you know me, if you know one thing about Jey Uso is that he don’t play about his family. Don’t talk about my family, don’t disrespect my family, and please don’t ever, ever put your hands on my family. Now that The Big Dog is laid up in the hospital, you know what I’m saying, all I hear is him saying, smash them all, so here’s what we’re gonna do. The Vision, Seth, Bronson Reed, Bron Breakker, all three of y’all bring your ass out here, because it’s go time.
LA Knight: Let me talk to you. Whether anybody else did last night, I believed in myself, I believed I would win, I believed I would be World Heavyweight Champion. And instead, let’s be honest, I stand here, right now, a loser. Let’s call what it is, I ain’t gotta be ashamed of that. I lost that match, you lost that match, we all lost that match, and still World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Freakin’ Rollins. Now, the rap on you, people like to say that, maybe at some point you lived in your cousin’s shadow. I don’t know anything about that, but I can damn sure say that Seth sure lives in his wife’s. But this all could’ve been prevented, you don’t understand. We had the chance to put Seth through the table, fight it out, three of us, me, you, Punk, and see who’s better man. And who spoiled that? You did. You don’t understand, BFT in the middle, 1-2, who spoils that? You did. You don’t understand, elbow through the table, Seth Rollins out of it, who spoil that? You did. You don’t understand. This all could’ve been prevented, every single bit of this. I am sick and damn tired of being left laying, I am sick and damn tired of not being World Heavyweight Champion. And if you’re gonna stand in my way, and you’re having a hard time understanding, my man, I can get you up to speed, really damn quick.
Jey Uso: Well, get me up to speed then, LA. Talk to me, uce. What’s up?
LA Knight: I think what I’m saying is.
– Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed appears on the stage.
LA Knight: Hey, guys, hold on, I just noticed that you don’t have your babysitter out here. We got two guys who liked the 8th grade so much, they repeated it three times. I hope you guys can actually rub enough brain cells together to put a coherent sentence together, and if you can’t, walk your ass back where you came from. YEAH!
Bron Breakker: I guess I’ve got enough brain cells, because I’ve beaten you twice, already. YEAH! The only thing that everybody out here should be concerned with, right now, is not these two idiots, but it’s Paul Heyman’s health, because he’s in the hospital right now, because Roman Reigns put him there. The only thing you two should be concerned with is the fact that Paul Heyman is not here, because now there’s nobody to hold us back. Hey, hey, attention Paris, Roman Reigns is in the hospital because we put him there. Tonight, we’re a couple of dogs off the leash, because Paul Heyman is not here to hold us, Paul Heyman is not here to tell us when to stop, what to do. And guess what, guys, Roman Reigns is in the hospital, we’re about to put the both of you right next to him.
Bronson Reed: Before I get to you two goons, Paris, France, acknowledge your Tribal Thief. Bron is right, we put Roman Reigns in the hospital, we beat down Roman Reigns like no one ever has, because Seth Rollins has a vision, and it did not include Roman Reigns, so we took him out. And that vision does not include Jey Uso, and it does not include LA Knight, so you two are next.
Bron Breakker: Look, you’re a couple of smart guys, you’re clearly not at 100% tonight, so what do you say, we have ourselves a match right here in Paris?
Bronson Reed: Unless you two aren’t too, you know, banged up enough or you’re not man enough or you don’t have the balls. Maybe it’s Old YEET, No SKEET.
LA Knight: I’m clearly a little beat up, I’m a little banged up, I know you’re banged up. Me and you can do this another time. But if this greasy warthog, and this cross-eyed halfwit wants to get their ass whipped tonight, you can. YEAH!
Jey Uso: Hey, I’m right with you, uce. Talk to em’. Four letters, one word, UGH-UGH, YEET!

Lyra says that if Judgment Day weren’t so obsessed with her, maybe they’ll still be the Women’s Tag Team Champions. Pearce is tired of the bickering. Pearce says that if Roxanne wants any matches going forward, she better leave this office. Pearce had a conversation with Bayley. She’s in good spirits, she said some weird things, but she’ll be back soon. Lyra needs to get back in the ring.

LA doesn’t know how to quit or stop. If beating up The Vision is truly LA’s best route to getting back into title contention, that’s exactly what he has to do. Can he trust Jey Uso?

CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch Segment
CM Punk: Seth Rollins, this seemingly endless war between you and me, this company, this show doesn’t run on your timeline. And I’ve been far too patient, all day waiting for you, so I’m out here until you are. So, that means I’m hijacking this show, and if that means I have to sing songs with my friends in Paris until we go off the air, well, then so be it. But I’m out here in this ring until your ass is in the ring, and you face me, man-to-man.
– Seth Rollins music hits, but Becky Lynch come down to the ring instead.
Becky Lynch: Oh, what’s the matter, wasn’t the man you were looking for? But I am The Man you’re gonna have to deal with. Classic, always chanting for a dope that doesn’t work here.
CM Punk: Yeah, I’m not gonna do this, I know what this is. This has nothing to do with you, unless you got your phone on you, and you can go ahead and call Seth, and get his rotten ass out here, right now.
Becky Lynch: How dare you? How dare you? Number one, you don’t tell me what to do, okay? And number two, this has everything to do with me. You think that you only affected one person in my family?
CM Punk: Do I care about your family? No, I see where this is going, and I don’t want any part of it.
Becky Lynch: No, no, no, hey, no, you’re not going anywhere. You’re gonna stay here, and you’re gonna listen to what I have to say, okay? Because I’ve had to listen to you tell lies about my husband, berate the father of my child, the greatest man that I’ve ever known.
CM Punk: Your husband is a coward.
Becky Lynch: Shut up. Shut up. My husband has sacrificed more for this business than you’ll ever know. And he is everything you will never be, okay? He’s hot, he’s jacked, he’s talented.
CM Punk: Oh, you’re delusional.
Becky Lynch: He doesn’t interrupt me.
CM Punk: Well, I wished he would, I wish he would interrupt you right now, so we don’t have to listen to you anymore, and I can punch his teeth down his throat.
Becky Lynch: Oh, look at you, you’re just like them, you love the sound of your own voice, love to get your little chants in, your own stuff in all the time. You think when you walked out of here, that it just affected him, and his matches? No, no, it was your name that they were chanting during my matches, to let me know that they didn’t care about me or what I was doing or who the hell I was, and the hard work I was putting in, okay? Yeah, just like that, you’re so proud of yourselves, aren’t you? You’re not, The Voice Of The Voiceless, you’re the poster child for apathy. And these people, they think that I forgot about that, they think that I had forgave them, because what, what, they put me on their shoulders, and carry me to the main event of WrestleMania? No, they didn’t get me to the main event of WrestleMania, I got me to the main event of WrestleMania, just like me and my husband got this business where it is today. I will not, you will listen to every word I have to say. This is not about you, it’s about me. I started a revolution, we’re in the middle of a revolution, right now. We run this business, we run both divisions, we’re champions. And my husband, he is a visionary, he is a revolutionary, he is Seth Freakin’ Rollins. And I’m the greatest female wrestler of all-time, and it’s not just me saying it, other people say it, Sports Illustrated says it. And we’re gonna need you to get the hell out of the way, okay, because you’re not what the business needs right now, and we wish you the best in your future endeavors. She doesn’t work here. You don’t fit The Vision.
CM Punk: That was good, it sounded good at least, but The Vision is a bit blurry, isn’t it, Becky? This is a 10 year beef because they chanted my name during your matches? I understand the magnitude of me, I’m the best in the world. And it’s just not me saying it, it’s 10,000 maniacs, 20,000 maniacs, 30,000 maniacs that are saying it. They chant my name if I work here, if I don’t work here, they chant my name if I’m in catering or if I’m not in this ring. They chant my name if I’m champion or if I’m not champion. You know who else chants my name aside from all my friends in Paris? All the towns I was just in. Yeah, I’m talking about Liverpool, New Castle, Birmingham, Leeds, Cardiff. You know who I didn’t see on all those shows, in all those towns? You and your stupid husband with your plastic belts. So, tell me again who runs things, Becky? And I’ll tell you, the only thing that Seth Rollins runs from is from adversity when it’s staring him in the face, calling him out, because he hides behind his title, and he hides behind Paul Heyman, and he hides behind Bronson Reed, and he hides behind Bron Breakker, and now he hides behind his wife. Far be it from me to reduce somebody of your stature to just somebody’s wife, because you’re so much more than that. You are a supremely talented superstar, you’re The Man, you just got bad taste, and you married a bum. And I need him to know that, I need him to know that he’s a paper champion. And I need him to know that, this between us, will never be over.
– Seth Rollins appears on the stage.
Seth Rollins: Hey, Punk, I’ve been looking for you all night long, pal. If you got something to say to your World Heavyweight Champion, why don’t you come up here, and say it to my face?
Becky stops Punk in his tracks. Rollins heads to the backstage area. Becky repeatedly slaps Punk in the face. Becky starts shoving Punk. Becky tells Punk to do something about it.
Becky Lynch: You’re pathetic.
CM Punk: I’m gonna make Seth Rollins regret ever cashing in on me, and you’re gonna regret putting your hands on me.
Becky Lynch: Well, I already do. I got your gross, stinky sweat all over me, yuck. Go on, get out of here, go, you’re gross. I’m gonna have to bathe in bleach, go on, get away, go. Bye-bye. See you later. Farewell. Hey, France, don’t you have a song about this? You don’t have a chant for this? Nah-nah-nah, hey hey, goodbye. Hey, see you, goodbye, farewell, you’re so gross, you’re disgusting, you’re pathetic. You’ll never be champion. Bye, bye, so long. Actually, just keep walking. Once you get to the curtain, keep walking, and never come back.
– Adam Pearce tells CM Punk that Seth Rollins left the arena, he can find him on Raw next week. Punk asks Pearce where is SmackDown this week? It’s in Chicago, home sweet home. Punk has a big smile on his face. Punk will be heading to SmackDown this Friday.
