I love the confusion and the chaos and the electricity.
There's a few of you chanting welcome back, a few of you chanting let's go Cena,
a few of you chanting Cena sucks.
But you are all loud and we are all here.
[APPLAUSE] >> I am here tonight to explain myself
after an unexpected John Cena meme-like return last night at Money in the Bank.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Roman Reigns was angry.
Paul Heyman was confused.
Michael Cole was very excited.
Pat McAfee still couldn't see me and everybody had a lot of questions.
Who, what, where, why?
So let's get them all out there who brought me back to the WWE.
>> [NOISE] >> That one's a layup.
Look around, it was you guys.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And it was Roman Reigns.
>> [NOISE] >> So
that brings me to the what, what am I here for?
The WWE Universal Championship.
[APPLAUSE] >> When?
About five weeks from now, little event called SummerSlam.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Where?
Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, that's a pretty safe place to bet.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Why?
Here's where it gets interesting.
I can stand here excited and tell you about the pageantry of SummerSlam,
about being a main event, >> What?
>> In a packed stadium.
>> What?
>> I can tell you about a history making record breaking 17th championship win.
>> What?
>> It's not because of any of that.
>> What?
>> It's cuz Roman Reigns is an [BLEEP].
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> And I believe he needs to be knocked down a peg.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> This pathetic
Roman Reigns experience has gone on long enough.
Roman Reigns is an arrogant, self absorbed,
over-hyped, over-protected,
overexposed gimmick who's not as over as he says he is.
>> [NOISE] >> And that is coming from me.
>> [NOISE] >> There's a saying,
if you're good, you'll tell everybody.
If you're good, you will demand that they acknowledge you, if you're good.
Now, guys, you remember that team effort I was talking about when you was making all
that noise, what did that sound like?
>> [APPLAUSE] >> No, no, no,
come on, it's your chance to shine, what did that sound like?
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I hear this section,
I don't so much hear this section.
What did that sound like?
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Hey, Roman,
the rest of that saying is if you're great, they tell you.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And I'm telling you right now,
I'm gonna be at SmackDown on Friday and I can't wait to see you there.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> So now I've got that off my chest,
let's get down to business!
>> [APPLAUSE]
[MUSIC]
>> This could be very interesting.
>> Dude, I finally get it, bro.
>> Bro.
>> Brooooooooooooooooooooo.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Bro!
>> [APPLAUSE]
