We take a look back at the end of Raw.
Seth Rollins' music plays and he makes his way to the ring with Paul Heyman and Bron Breakker.
Seth welcomes everyone to Raw (and he does it at the start of the show for a change) and he tells everyone who he is. In case you didn't know, you are looking at the winner of the main event of Wrestlemania. Seth says he knows it is a little difficult for those of you who want to chant for CM Punk (and Seth waits for the chants). It might be painful for those of you want to put your fingers in the air for Roman Reigns (and he waits for it). What you are looking at in this ring right now is the future of our industry. The future runs through one man. It is not CM Punk, Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, John Cena, or Cody Rhodes. With Paul Heyman to his left and Bron Breakker to his right, the future runs through him.
Sami Zayn's music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
Seth introduces Sami and he welcomes him back. He says it is good to see him back on Raw. Seth asks Sami if he caught Wrestlemania.
Sami says he saw Wrestlemania. He asks how long have they been friends. Sami says, as a friend, he feels that he needs to come out and tell Seth that this is a load of crap.
Seth asks Sami what does he mean.
Sami asks how long did he talk about Roman and Punk and the thing they had in common is standing over your shoulder. How are you any different.
Seth asks Sami if he is comparing him to Roman and Punk.
Sami says he thought Seth had a deep hatred for Punk and he was self righteous about Roman, but maybe you are jealous. You wanted to be put in the position that they were.
Seth says he is not Punk or Roman. This is the vision for the future. We talked about the future.
Sami says it is a coincidence that the future for WWE revolves around Seth Rollins being front and center.
Seth says he is the best man for the job.
Sami calls it hypocritical. You talk about the Bloodline and . . .
Seth says it isn't the Bloodline.
Sami says you have the Wise Man and your little dog. He says he will kick Bron's face in if he continues to look at him like that.
Seth says he wants to be honest. This is the vision for the future. You are with us or you become a target. That is not a threat. It doesn't matter if I hate you like I hate Roman or Punk or if I love you. I don't want you to be a target. Seth says we can come to a conclusion. Seth asks Paul to pull some strings and get Sami pulled off Raw. He says it isn't a threat. It is clear you are not going to buy in so they will cash him out. It isn't a threat . . . it's an offer. It is a favor.
Seth tells Sami to think about it. He says he will need an answer by the end of the night.
Bron does not move and he has some words for Sami so Paul tries to calm him down and escort him from the ring.
