Rollins could not stomach the possibility of championship success for Cody Rhodes.

looking for the- >> Cody cutter plants The Miz.
>> Cody Rhodes has come alive.
There's crowd behind him every step of the way.
>> Thinking figure four and he's got it.
>> We often see this from The Miz and now Cody, figure four locked in,
center of the ring.
>> I know a certain son of a plumber who used to use a figure four very effectively
as well, Saxton.
>> Very, very well.
He is desperately trying to reach,
trying to find that bottom rope to break the hold.
>> Think about tapping, no, he gets to the rope.
>> [NOISE] >> Gutsy maneuver by The Miz.
>> Yeah, but the knee of The Miz can't be in great shape after that figure four.

Up the ante.
