We are back and Cathy is with Paul Heyman in the back.
Cathy asks for a response to what Cody said.
Paul says as he walks through the shadow of the Island of Relevancy, he fears no Tribal Chief because Cody Rhodes is not ready. When Cody asked a rhetorical question, it is relevant. Solo is ready to weaken Cody Rhodes for his match against Roman Reigns. Solo is not here to compete. He is here to give Cody a beating so Cody is not 100 percent. Paul says you might say that is not dignified for Roman, but Roman will take whatever advantage he can take.
Roman came to him and told Paul he was ready to go from the Big Dog to the Tribal Chief. This is the same Cody Rhodes we have always known. Cody has never been ready. Cody was never ready to fill the shoes of the American Dream. Cody was never ready to be THE MAN of this generation. Cody is not ready to beat Roman on Sunday. Cody needs to be ready to take the beating that will be inflicted upon him tonight by Solo Sikoa. When Cody enters the ring on Sunday night, the only thing he will be ready for is to lose to Roman Reigns. Then Cody Rhodes, I implore you to be ready for the biggest moment in your entire existence. In the glory of your own defeat when you disappointed the WWE Universe. Be ready to acknowledge Roman Reigns.
Dominik Mysterio says it takes a real low life to hit your own child. I thought you were a deadbeat them, now you really are a deadbeat. Everyone saw you attacking me. After Damian beats you tonight and I humiliate you at Wrestlemania, everyone will really know what kind of a failure you really are.
Dom speaks in Spanish and he says bad things about his mother and sister.
What kind of father hits his own son. What kind of mother sits there and does nothing? The silence was deafening. I should have told her to shut up a long time ago. I never said this out loud, but I wish Eddie was his real father and you never existed. Dom says his entire family is a disgrace to the Mysterio name. The Mysterio name will be his at Wrestlemania.
