Brock Lesnar, Paul Heyman, Oba Femi Segment 

Paul Heyman: Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. Introducing, The Champion Of The Cage, The Beast Of The Brocktagon, Brock Lesnar. I would also like to call to your direction, the fine and upstanding gentlemen of the Dallas, Texas Police Department. And you may be asking the question, well, why are the Dallas cops here tonight? And it’s a good question, a very valid question, and the answer is Oba Femi. Oba Femi turned down a guaranteed title match against either champion, because that’s how obsessed he is with Brock Lesnar. I want you to think about the abnormity of the statement I just made. He turned down the opportunity to get in the ring with either champion of his choice, that is stalker level, that is obsession to an unhealthy degree, that’s clinger number nine territory. Oba Femi is not just a clinger, he’s not just obsessed, he’s not just a stalker, he is the biggest dummy I have ever met in my entire life.

And you can boo that all you want, everybody knows that I’m telling the truth. And he’s not just a big dummy, he’s a really, really, really, really big, Nigerian Dummy, that turns down the opportunity for the title, because he’s like a psycho ex-girlfriend coming after Brock Lesnar. See, I got to be honest with you, I’m used with people being obsessed with Brock Lesnar, everyone wants a shootout at the O.K. Corral, everybody likes to talk shit, and then they get hit. And then once they get hit by Brock Lesnar, they’re not so obsessed with Brock Lesnar anymore. So, there’s a bigger problem at hand, it’s not just Oba Femi being obsessed with Brock Lesnar. My client, Brock Lesnar, is obsessed with Oba Femi, and ladies and gentlemen, that scares me half to death. I called Brock Lesnar when he was on a hunting trip, I said, Brock, how’s the hunting going? And he says, I can’t wait to get inside Hell In A Cell with Oba Femi. I called Brock Lesnar during training camp, I ask him how’s training going? He says I can’t wait to get inside Hell In A Cell with Oba Femi.

I’ve seen a lot of people obsessed with Brock Lesnar, Brock Lesnar obsessed with anybody is unhealthy, Brock Lesnar obsessed with Oba Femi leads to what Dallas, Texas is used to. Violence. Now, Oba Femi may want to throw away title shots, and Brock Lesnar may be willing to beat Oba Femi into the ground tonight, but for me, I want to protect my money, that’s what an advocate does. So, to protect my investment, I went to WWE and I said, can we please get a no touch clause before SummerSlam, before Hell In A Cell? And that requires a lot of lawyers and paperwork, so I went to a judge here in Dallas that my father knew years ago, and I pulled in more than one favor, and I got a restraining order. A restraining order against Oba Femi, so that Oba Femi cannot come within 100 yards from Brock Lesnar. And truth to be told, I got a restraining order on my own client, Brock Lesnar. And out of respect and years of loyalty to me, I know that Brock Lesnar will please adhere to the restraining order, because this beast is a law-abiding citizen.

– Oba Femi makes his way out to the stage. The Dallas Police slid into the ring.

Oba Femi: I came here for a fight tonight. But before I get down to it, I’m going to give you an opportunity to explain what the hell this is.

Paul Heyman: You want an explanation, it’s very simple. You, sir, are in violation of a court ordered restraining order, gentlemen, do your job.

– Brock and Paul walk out of the ring. Oba completely demolishes the Dallas Officers.

Oba Femi: What are these games? What are you playing at? Running, BS’ing, low blows, attacking from behind. This not even you anymore. Who is this? Where is The Beast? You used to run this place, now all you do is run away. And as for you, Paul, you have the audacity to tell everybody that I stupidly threw away a title opportunity, meanwhile we both know that if I went for it, he would have cost me anyways. So, here’s the deal, SummerSlam, Hell In A Cell, Oba Femi, Brock Lesnar, No More Games, No More BS, No More Low-Blows, No More Running Away. You can’t run from The Ruler, you can’t run from The Destroyer, you can’t run from The Bringer Of War, you can’t run from Oba Femi.

Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins – Chapter One: The Shield Part One 

Seth Rollins: From day one, we set out to make history. And from day one, we did just that.

Roman Reigns: We changed the way the games were played in WWE, and it hasn’t been the same since.

Bayley & Lyra Valkyria Segment 

Bayley: Lyra, can you please come out here, right now? Are you going to say anything? You can’t even look at me? Look, I brought you out here, because the relationship that I had, I thought that we could be honest with each other and say face-to-face what we truly mean and apologize.

Lyra Valkyria: Apologize? You should be the one apologizing to me, for holding me back for an entire year. No, this is what you do, you always do this, you come out here, and you make it look like you’re this victim. Oh, poor Bayley, poor Bayley, Bayley’s friends always leave her in the dust. I’ve been stabbed in the back, too, I just don’t come out here and make it my entire personality. And you know what, maybe, maybe if you weren’t so obsessed with all of your past friendships, failures, you would be able to take a step back and see all of your problems.

Bayley: My problems?

Lyra Valkyria: No, no, no, you’re gonna let me talk right now. And when I say this, look at me, look at me, because I want to look in you in the eye and say this. Everything that I made you feel good about, I was lying. You’re not a locker-room leader, you’re a doormat. Your face does not belong on the posters. You do drag down every single person you work with. And you have always been the worst of The Four Horsewomen.

Bayley: Look, I should’ve known that bringing you out here was a big mistake, because, clearly, you’re just like everybody else. You are not as special as you think you are, because you’re saying this to the first-ever Women’s Grand Slam Champion, to a Royal Rumble Winner, and one half of the first-ever Women’s Tag Team Champions. So, guess what, lucky for you, I’m going to add to my accomplishments and add beating your ass inside Madison Square Garden to it. Because I talked to Adam Pearce, and it looks like I’ll see you at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins Contract Signing 

Adam Pearce: Ladies and gentlemen, at SummerSlam, we will all bear witness to one of the most highly anticipated championship matches in recent history. Tonight, we sign the contract, we make it official. Please, join me in welcoming, The World Heavyweight Champion, “The OTC” Roman Reigns.

Roman Reigns: Dallas, Texas. Acknowledge Me!

– Seth Rollins makes his way down to the ring and immediately signs the contract.

Seth Rollins: I know it’s got to be hard for you when the sweet melodies of my song drawn out those OTC Chants. And look, I know this has got to be difficult for you, too, it’s tough, I understand what you’re going through. But look, there are just some things in life that are certain, death, taxes and Seth Rollins beats Roman Reigns, every single time. So, sign on the dotted line and let’s get this over with.

Roman Reigns: Well, Dallas, I wish he would’ve come out here and did that last week, because he came out here and bored us all half to death. But while you were putting everyone to sleep last week, see, I was listening. And you proved me right. Seth Rollins is The Tribal Chief’s number one hater, and that’s the sad thing, he’s laughing about, but that’s the only thing he’s number one at. And that’s what I hate the most, it’s that you somehow have these people confused thinking that we’re on the same level. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. So, at SummerSlam, I show the difference between me and you. At SummerSlam, I end any of this that you could ever think that you could compete me. At SummerSlam, I show you what number one looks like.

– Roman Reigns signs the contract.

Seth Rollins: Mr. Pearce, if I could do the honors, there you have it, Dallas. There you have it, contract, ink going to dry. And look, I owe you a debt of gratitude, I thank you so much for keeping my title warm for me since WrestleMania. I will take this from you at SummerSlam. And my brother, I’ll see you next time you want to show up to work.

– Seth Rollins starts walking towards the back.

Roman Reigns: Woah, woah, woah, where you think you’re going? That’s it? You’re just gonna sign and run? Alright, how about we play your game? What if you do win? What if you do beat me at SummerSlam? What’s gonna happen? You’re gonna carry it for a couple months and get hurt, again? I mean, don’t act shocked, that’s what happens every single time. Some would say that’s self-sabotage, because some people just can’t handle the weight, the pressure and the burden of being the top guy around here.

Seth Rollins: If you got something to say, just say it. Come on, spit it out. Don’t hold back, come on, if you got something to say, say it, I’m right here, I’m not going anywhere, say it.

Roman Reigns: I’ll say it, because everybody is thinking, you want to know how I know you’re number two? Because after all these years, he still needs a Money In A Bank Briefcase to become champion. And if you thought that was bad enough, he had to fake an injury in order to use the damn thing. Let’s just be honest here, if there was ever a time for this guy to be number one, I mean, come on, your work Daddy Triple H is damn near running this joint. But they tried, oh, boy did they try, I mean, they pretty much gave you all my stuff, and you still couldn’t walk in my shoes, number two. So, lets just call what it is, lets call a spade a spade, you’re number two, always going to be number two. I’m number one, always gonna be number one and just acknowledge it, bitch.

Seth Rollins: Is that all you got? Is that all you could come up with? Come on, Roman, tell me how I’m never gonna be you, tell me how I’m never gonna draw as much money as you, tell me I’m never gonna be as big a star as you, tell me I’m never going to main event as many WrestleMania’s as you, tell me my dreams don’t mean a damn thing, because none of this is for me, it’s for you. Tell me that, anything you can tell, I’ve told myself, every single day for the past 15 years. But you know what? You and me, we’re not running the same race, we’re not fighting the same fight, and at some point, I had to look in the mirror, I had to be proud of who I am, I had to be proud of what I stand for, I had to be proud for what I fight for. Because I am a visionary, I am a revolutionary, I am Seth Freakin’s Rollins, and I am so glad that I am not you.
