John Cena comes to the ring and talks about how important tonight is, then he says he hopes Triple H doesn’t skate around any answers during the podcast tonight. He says he heard HHH call Cena the past, and Rollins is the future, just like all of his Superstars in NXT and “his” WWE. Cena says HHH’s WWE doesn’t have room for Cena, but he will never give up and he will keep making history as long as he is here. He plays a clip of Sting on RAW, then Ryback, Erick Rowan and Dolph Ziggler enter the ring and Cena says he is ready for whatever is next. He talks about fighting Rusev, then Stephanie cuts him off and Dolph gets into an argument with her about putting obstacles in front of them. Stephanie says since he opened his mouth, Dolph will face Bray Wyatt, Rowan will face Rusev, and Ryback will be in action next.

Winner – Ryback
BP: Pretty good match. Would’ve liked to have seen Harper get a bit more offense in, but it was still a good matchup. I’d like to see them revisit this in the future.
