Giulia says throughout her entire career, she had one goal. It was not to be the best. It is hollow and empty. Her goal is to be indesputible. You can love her or hate her. Admiration or disgust mean nothing. She is impossible to deny. Her opponent does not matter because I view them as a way to build my legacy. Smackdown, you will see that she hits harder, moves faster, and thinks sharper than anyone. It isn't who is going to let her, it is who is going to stop her.

Giulia says she sees that title.
Vega walks away.
Damian Priest makes his way to the ring.
Priest says ever since he beat Drew on Saturday, he is breathing in fresh air. If you were beefing with another street, it can last for years. In WWE, you have a match and it is over. Him and Drew battled for over a year. They went into a cage and they went to war. After that war, he gave Drew a Conchairto and put his ass in the past. He says he knows that Drew is recovering somewhere and he wants to say something to Drew. He says he still can't stand his ass. The Drew that stepped into the cage was the old Drew and he says he appreciates that.
Priest says he is not going to ask what is next, he is going to tell you. He came to Smackdown for titles. He lost an opportunity to be in Money in the Bank, but he has unfinished business against the most bad ass champion.
Priest says y'all know who it is and he says Jacob Fatu. Priest says he respects Fatu. He knows what Fatu had to go through and grew up in. He says he is proud of Fatu being a champion. He says he does not respect the crew that follows him around. He says he does not respect the crew that he follows around. If your family wants to get involved, they can catch a fresh one too. He doesn't want it to be a nickname anymore. He wants to be El Campeon.

Byron is in the back and he is with LA Knight.
Knight says everyone talks about punching tickets. He says he guesses he punched his ticket to Money in the Bank. He mentions the other people in the match. If this is a one on one match, he says he would call his shot and that he would cash it in. This is his third year in a row. You have the most robust and the most recent experience. The title are all in his future. They should be in his past or his present.

Cody Rhodes makes his way to the ring.
Cody asks Knoxville what do they want to talk about.
He says he would be remiss not to talk about the record crowd this evening. We could talk about Wrestlemania. After Wrestlemania, I went home, drowned my sorrows and touched the Tennessee cough syrup. I had a doubtful moment and I reached out to a friend. He asked him, was I a good champion? His answer was with everything you faced in the ring and with everything you faced behind the scenes, being pulled in directions no one had ever been pulled, yes.
Cody says he thought about his full year. He thought about AJ Styles faking a retirement. He thought about being sucker punched. He thought about his boss. He thought about the Final Boss asking him for his soul and the world theorizing what he meant. He was 100 percent serious. No matter how many times he said no, the offer still stood. Cody says he thought about John Cena.
Cody says he thought about John Cena doing exactly what he said he would do. He made him make a choice and he hesitated. Will John Cena ruin professional wrestling? If he does, Cody says he is partially to blame. If you are listening, champ, I need you to know that he will never hesitate with John again. How many times you tout the number of days you have left before you abscond with the title. Your expiration ends on the other side of these corneas and they will burn your ass up. Cody says he is sorry. He says it is his first night back on Smackdown. He says he is getting a little worked up. What can I do for you when I get back?
How about a surprise?
Cody says you seem hungry so maybe they should yeet. That would be a big surprise. That would be his partner going into battle. He is here. Cody brings out Jey Uso.
John Cena interrupts the yeeting with his entrance.
John says he is upset too. It is professional wrestling's biggest wannabes. He tells Cody he is nothing but a John Cena wannabe. He says Jey is nothing more than a John Cena wannabe. You both want to be him so bad, it makes him sick. You want his fame and his money but you won't get it because you are too lame and too lazy. There is one person who embodies hustle, loyalty, and respect. He tells the losers that his partner is here as well.
Logan Paul makes his way to the ring.
John asks if you are mad because Logan does WWE better than any professional wrestler. Logan does not need to pay his dues because he is paying your mortgage. Everybody in this building did not come to see you, they came to see John Cena and Logan Paul.
Logan wants to know what Knoxville is crying about. He says he could walk on water and you would say it is because he couldn't swim. John speaks the language of Logan Paul, the truth. It is right in front of you. Look around, you stupid simple Tennessee people. This is a moment in history. All of you get to witness the moment that John Cena stood side by side in the ring with Logan Paul. All of you will live long, pathetic, miserable lives. You will get to say that you saw that.
Logan says the people are ungrateful and you don't know what is good for you. Logan says he should be standing next to the WWE Champion as a WWE Champion. He should have been the one to leave Saturday Night's Main Event with the title around his waist, but you got lucky. You needed Cody Rhodes to save you. You two cheaters can't do anything without it handed to you. Logan says him and John are self made men while Cody and Jey were born on third thinking they hit a triple.
People wouldn't have believed he wouldn't be a WWE Superstar five years ago or that he would be tag teaming with the biggest star. He is THE star in WWE. Logan says he is the inevitable face of this company. Next weekend, if you want some, come get some.
Jey says they don't have to wait and they can handle this now.
John doesn't want to fight and Logan wants to.
