Jerry says he started with the Undertaker in Memphis when he was Mean Mark.  He says he has a lot of memories with him.  He faced the Undertaker in a Casket Match and it did not end well.  

Booker says when he came to WWE, Taker pulled him in at his first Wrestlemania and Taker told him to take it in.  Taker was the leader who sent everyone on track and made sure they did a good job.  Booker says Taker is Texas' greatest representative in the business.  

John says there has not been anyone who had a run like Taker while on top.  The longevity and being on top has been the constant.

Peter talks about how Undertaker bridges the gap between generations.  Taker is a wrestling fan's wrestler and one of a kind.

Chalry sends it to Kayla with Paul Heyman.

Kayla asks Paul about his comments on Talking Smack about false adversiting for making the match as Champion versus Champion and how it is Champion versus Title Holder.

Paul laughs at the idea of having to retract his comments and he asks Kayla if she is flriting with him.  Paul says he is going to double down.  Roman is THEE Champion of all Sports Entertainment.  Drew is a title holder.  He is a prop and a stand in.  Send in Drew for the photo op when Roman is not available.  Drew is a babysitter for a belt.  Roman Reigns makes the chamiponship.  He brings to the Universal Champion honor, prestige, and a lineage.  The winner of the match tonight will be the Universal Champion . . . Roman Reigns.

Charly asks about Paul's comments.

Booker says it takes a champion to do those things in and out of the ring.  That is what Drew wants to be and what he is.  He disagrees with Paul.

Peter says Roman is the guy and the other champions are not Roman Reigns.  We have to believe in Drew.

John says to get respect, Drew needs to beat Roman.  Paul has the right to say what he wants and John wonders if Paul even believes it.

Booker says if anyone can say they are the guy and beat THE Guy, it is Drew McIntyre.

Charly moves on to the battle of the Women's Champions and we have a video package for Lana being sent through the table.

The discussion moves on to the Women's Elimination Match.  Charly asks if the teams can work together.

John says you may not like your teammates, but you want to win the match.

We take a look at Natalya becoming the fifth member of the team for Smackdown.

Bianca Beliar shows up on the panet to replace Peter and John appreciates the upgrade.

Bianca is asked about being on the Smackdown team.  She says she is so excited and she is ready to show why she is the EST of WWE.  She says she is happy for her teammates and she wants to show that they are the best of the best.  

Booker asks Bianca a question and Natalya shows up to interrupt.

Natalya says that Bianca and Bayley are not the captains of the team.  Natalya says everyone is looking for a leader and it is going to be the BOAT.  Bianca says she is the EST.

Charly asks if experience will be the difference.

Peter says if they want to make a name for themselves, they have to beat a legendary tag team.

John says if you are the best team of the decade, it is because they are.  He does not think the Street Profits will win, but if they do, it will be a big deal.

Jerry says he does not think the Street Profits will steal the show and experience will be the difference.

Booker mentions his history as a tag champ and he says the Street Profits have the tools to be a great team, but they have to switch gears.  They have to treat this like business and to take that spot and power.

Charly mentions the Street Profits trying to get some intelligence from Big E to help them.  

Booker says you cannot trust anybody.  The Street Profits have to bring the smoke tonight.

John says getting secrets from Big E would be like getting information about Booker from Stevie Ray or information about him from Ron Simmons.
