Backstage: Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens

Sami Zayn is walking backstage when he finds Kevin Owens. Zayn says he doesn’t know what else he has to do. Does Owens see what he’s saying? The Bloodline is too much for one person. Their history is complicated. They don’t need to be best friends, but they have the same objective. Neither of them can do it alone. They can do it together. Zayn begs him to listen to him. Zayn says he knows how The Bloodline works. Owens says he remembers Zayn staking his claim in this arena. Owens remembers. They’re too much for one man to fight. Owens has fought them for eight months. Maybe they could do this together, but Owens doesn’t want to do this with him. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe Zayn can just go back to Roman Reigns if he strokes his ego enough. Owens tells Zayn to just leave him out of it. Zayn looks dejected and walks off.

In-Ring: The Miz, Seth Rollins, Logan Paul

The Miz is in the ring. In preparation for his hosting duties at WrestleMania, he’s going to moderate this event. Miz cannot let his bias get in the way. If anyone has an issue with that, they shouldn’t have used his phone to set it up.

Miz introduces social media sensation, Logan Paul. Logan Paul comes out to loud boos. Miz goes for a handshake, but Paul sidesteps him.

“BURN IT DOWN!”

Seth “Freakin” Rollins comes out to the ring in one of his most ridiculous trenchcoats yet. It’s red and white, making him look like a pseudo-candy cane. The crowd loudly sings Rollins’ theme song. Miz holds a hand up and asks if they know what that means. When his hand goes up, their mouths go shut. They don’t listen and continue to sing. Miz says they need to listen to him. Rollins puts Miz’s microphone down and lets the crowd continue to sing. Paul says to Boston that this segment has a time limit so they need to shut up. This does stop the crowd from singing, but they instead loudly boo Paul.

The crowd now goes back to singing. This is amazing. Rollins greets Boston and tells them to look at what the cat dragged in. Live and in flesh, he’s gracing us with his presence, the social media star Logan Paul. The crowd boos Paul. A “Logan sucks” chant picks up. Rollins says it sounds like Boston knows who Paul is. Even though they’ve had their run-ins for the past couple of months, they haven’t been formally introduced. Rollins says he is a revolutionary and a visionary. He is Seth “Freakin” Rollins. The crowd sings his song again.

Logan Paul says he knows who Rollins is: the guy he dumped at the Royal Rumble and stomped at Elimination Chamber. Paul doesn’t know what Rollins’ problem is with him. Maybe because he embarrassed him twice or did more in one year than he’s done in 20. Paul is better at this than Rollins is. Paul is on his way in and Rollins is on the way out. Paul works harder, not smarter. If Paul were Rollins, he wouldn’t like him either. The Miz says Paul makes some good points. A “F**k you, Logan” chant picks up. Rollins says Paul does make some great points, but what he’s missing is none of that is the reason they don’t like him. Rollins says the people don’t like Paul because he is the scum of the earth. Paul is a coward, a troll, a fraud, and a human dumpster fire. They don’t want Logan Paul in their house. The crowd loudly cheers.

Rollins says Boston didn’t come here to see them mince words. Boston is here to see him get his pound of flesh. The time for talk is over. It’s time to fight. Paul stares intensely at Rollins. Rollins takes his jacket off. Miz puts a stop to this. As the moderator, it’s his job to make sure they don’t fight tonight. Paul tells Miz not to put words in his mouth. If he wants to fight Rollins tonight in Boston, then he’s gonna do it. If Paul wants something, he’s gonna do it. Paul isn’t gonna do that. Paul doesn’t fight for free. Paul is a premium act and is definitely not going to fight for free in Boston. The crowd boos Logan Paul. Paul tells them to get real. However, if the stage and the money were bigger… if they were somewhere with more star power, he’d consider it. Miz says he’s the host of WrestleMania and could make Seth “Freakin” Rollins versus Logan Paul at WrestleMania happen. Rollins asks if he could really make that happen. Rollins asks what they’re waiting for and throws Miz out of the ring.

Paul attacks Rollins and goes for a Stomp. Rollins avoids it and tackles him to the corner. Miz jumps on Rollins’ back, but Rollins superkicks him down. Logan Paul then knocks Rollins out with a big right hand! Paul says when Rollins wakes up, he should let him know about WrestleMania. Paul says, “Bye-bye, bitch,” and throws the microphone at him.

Omos vs. Dolph Ziggler

Mustafa Ali is at ringside holding up a sign that says “We love Dolph.” Earlier today, Mustafa Ali told Dolph Ziggler that he got him a match against Omos.

Winner by Pinfall: Omos

MVP says all the hype he needs to hype up the WrestleMania match between Brock Lesnar and Omos is what Omos just did. Lesnar should have never put his hands on MVP. The Nigerian Giant will tame the beast at WrestleMania.

Backstage: Maximum Male Models, Baron Corbin

Maxxine Dupri, ma.cé, and mån.sôör are talking about Otis. Baron Corbin comes up and thinks they’re talking about him. Corbin says he has been on a string of bad luck and needed that. They tell him they’re talking about Otis. Corbin asks what Otis has that he doesn’t. They say things like charisma and the “it” factor, as well as hair. Corbin says he looks like Bruce Willis. mån.sôör shouts that Corbin is a troglodyte and not Bruce Willis. Maxxine says if Corbin can take out the short, ugly one (Gable) she’ll consider taking him on.

Backstage: Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa, Paul Heyman

Jimmy Uso is taping up backstage. Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman are with him. Heyman says Jimmy Uso is going to be the one that solves the Sami Zayn problem. Jimmy will make sure the Tribal Chief never hears the name “Sami” again. To do this with all the pressure of having to bring Jey Uso back to the Bloodline by the end of the week is impressive. If Jimmy doesn’t, the Tribal Chief won’t blame Heyman or Solo Sikoa. The Tribal Chief will blame Jimmy Uso.

Elias asks Boogs what he said, and Boogs says he told Reed that Elias wants to fight him. Elias says Boogs has a lot to learn.

In-Ring: John Cena, Austin Theory

John Cena’s music comes out, and he comes out to the stage to an ENORMOUS pop! Cena looks into the camera and says his regular cameraman Stu has the day off. Stu should be here to hear this. This is good.

Cena gets in the ring and takes a microphone. Before he can say anything, United States Champion Austin Theory makes his way to the ring! Theory gets in the ring and encourages the crowd to chant for Cena. Theory says he has all the respect in the world for Cena. The people might not know this, but Theory only became a WWE Superstar because of Cena. Cena inspired him with his hustle, loyalty, and respect. Theory thanks Cena for that. Theory is coming out here with a gift for Cena. This is a gift from the bottom of his heart and bigger than any movie role Cena will do. It’s the gift of Cena and Theory one-on-one on the Grandest Stage of Them All for the United States Championship.

Cena thinks about it and simply says, “No.” Cena says he took a second to think about it and thought it over. Cena is not interested in Theory’s gift because he hasn’t earned the right to give it. Cena has been watching and listening to Theory. Cena just doesn’t care, just like every single person, we don’t care about Theory. Why? They don’t care about Theory because they don’t believe him. They don’t believe Theory because Theory doesn’t believe Theory. Theory is a generic kid out here in fancy sneakers wearing sunglasses indoors, but he has no heart. Cena points out a sign that says “Austin Theory is a John Cena wannabe.” Cena is the Ghost of Christmas Future for Theory. Theory is in his ruthless aggression phase. Ruthless Aggression almost got him fired. It was a great opportunity, but Cena didn’t believe in himself. Theory has received numerous opportunities, but it’s not enough. Theory has no heart and soul. The people are here tonight out of respect for the past 20 years. They believe in Cena. They don’t believe in Theory. Theory is a pair of trunks away from being a jabroni.

Cena is going to say something good now. Theory has the best name in WWE history. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, The Rock, and The Undertaker. There’s no name better than Austin Theory because that’s exactly what he is: a theory. In theory, he should be great. In theory, he’s everything a WWE executive looks for. In theory, everyone here should be here to see him… but no one cares. Theory is wasting their time. So on behalf of Boston, we would like to give Theory a gift. Cena tells Theory to shut up, turn around, get out of the ring, and they’ll let him walk out of here in one piece. A loud “Cena” chant picks up.

Theory says he’s not going anywhere just like the bald spot on Cena’s head isn’t. Cena takes off his hat and shows it off. Cena says he’s proud of the senior circuit. Theory says Cena has a reverse on everything. Theory sees all these shirts for Cena that say, “Never give up.” Is John Cena saying no? Is John Cena saying that he’s giving up? The hat says, “Respect.” Where is the respect for the people? Cena has a golden ticket against the greatest United States Champion at WrestleMania, and he’s going to give up. Where’s the hustle? Where’s the loyalty? Where’s the respect? Don’t they want to see John Cena at WrestleMania? Theory tells them to shut up because Cena said no. Theory realizes that Cena was his childhood hero, but you don’t want to meet your hero because they disappoint when you do.

Cena puts his head down. Cena says he’d rather be bald than have them pipe in fake crowd noise because no one cares. Theory is a dumb son of a bitch. Cena didn’t say no because he is giving up. He said no to save Theory because he’s not ready. If they have a match at WrestleMania and Theory loses, he loses everything. He’s done. If Theory wins at WrestleMania, he still loses everything. Theory can win the day, but he’ll have to go out the Monday after all alone and explain. The audience will eat Theory alive. They see what he sees. Theory is full of crap. Cena says Theory really left him no choice because he brought the crowd into it. Now Cena has to ask them to see what they’re going to do. Cena turns to Boston and thanks his family for being here tonight because it means a lot to him. Cena asks for help on this decision. Do they want to see Austin Theory vs. John Cena at WrestleMania? The crowd loudly cheers, and a “YES” chant starts up. Cena says his hair isn’t just going. So is his hearing. Cena asks again, and they respond. Cena says he may not care about Theory, but he’ll never give up on them. Cena tells Theory to remember this moment because he just made the biggest mistake of his life. At WrestleMania, it’s going to be Austin Theory vs. John Cena. Cena wishes him luck because he doesn’t have the brains, heart, or balls.

Cena’s music starts to play, but Cena stops it. Cena says he really needs to work on that last bit. Cena walks off but stops. In no way, shape, or form is Austin Theory ready for WrestleMania, but Boston deserves to see someone that is.

Cena introduces “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes. Rhodes comes out to a big reception. Cena and Rhodes embrace on the stage. Cena holds Rhodes’s arm up.

Backstage: Sami Zayn

Cathy Kelley finds Sami Zayn backstage. She asks for his comments about facing Jimmy Uso and being rejected by Kevin Owens. Zayn says Owens is right about what happened at WarGames, but everything has changed now. The one guy who had his back through thick and thin in Jimmy Uso now has to take him out. If Jimmy Uso can’t take him out, then it’s the end of him. Zayn has to see the end of Roman Reigns. Tonight will not be Jimmy Uso’s night.

Baron Corbin vs. Chad Gable

Corbin takes it to Gable at the start of the match and applies a torture rack. Gable gets out and takes him down before hitting a Rolling German Suplex. Gable goes to the top rope but lands on his feet when Corbin moves. Corbin hits a chokeslam backbreaker. Corbin talks some trash, so Gable clips the leg and applies an ankle lock for the victory.

Winner by Submission: Chad Gable

In-Ring: Becky Lynch, Lita, Trish Stratus, Damage CTRL

WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Becky Lynch and Lita come to the ring. Lynch says when a couple of legends stand side-by-side, they don’t miss. Lita says when Lynch gave her the opportunity to go for the Tag Team Titles, you have two choices: pass on it or make history as they do. Dakota Kai and IYO SKY didn’t make it easy, but they made it worth it. A “You deserve it” chant picks up. Lita says as Lynch’s friend and tag team partner, she thanks her. There’s a special equalizer they haven’t thanked yet.

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus makes her way to the ring. Stratus says she’s so happy to see Lynch and Lita as champions. She had to come out and put a stop to Bayley.

Damage CTRL makes their way to the ring. Bayley says all they got was another trophy for their cases at their expense, but she sees through them. Stratus says she can go from retired to was retired very quickly. Stratus says she’d love to shut Bayley up and challenges Damage CTRL to a match at WrestleMania. Bayley accepts, which seems to upset IYO SKY and Dakota Kai. Kai and Sky try to attack Stratus and Lita, but they’re quickly knocked out of the ring. Lynch and Bayley go face-to-face. Lynch blocks a right hand and punches her. Lita and Stratus each get a punch in, and Damage CTRL retreats.
