He's an amazing competitor and he can't wait to face him when he comes back. If I'm limitless, he's right up there with me. The interviewer asks how he feels not being in the Money in the Bank match seeing that Roman replaced Black in the qualifying match. Keith Lee says Roman is amazing man and an even better competitor. He gave me a opportunity when no one else would, so i returned the favor. Then the powers at be granted our third outing. I love Roman. I have tremendous respect for the man. The interviewer then suggests that it's weird that Roman wanting to get into the match, and then Black got knocked out and if Lee thinks that's weird. Keith Lee says again innocent until proven guilty. Roman is a locker room leader and I man i truly respect. I cannot fathom him doing such a thing. Again he was willing to give me a shot at his WWE Championship assuming I can earn it, which is fair of course. He's just a great guy. But Keith Lee admits that now with the current WWE Champion, he might not be given the same opportunities. So, Brock or even Paul Heyman. I want a shot. I think I proved myself. Let me face Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship and everyone can bask in my glory.

I'm glad someone took him out to clear my path but I didn't knock the fella out.

Huskus asks if it's because he can finally get back at the shield. Ramblin Rabbit comes in and says no dawg, it's because we're jealous that he was the chosen one while we kept failing and failing. Bray Wyatt says yowie wowie. Then theres a knock on the door. Ramblin Rabit gets scared and quickly leaves along with the other characters. Bray goes to the door and then it explodes open and there stands the Boss puppet which says "If you lose, you're fired!" Ramblin Rabbit then pops back up wearing a suit jacket and terrified, says yes boss! Then Bray Wyatt stands up wearing a suit jacket over his mr. rodgers attire. Bray Wyatt says you heard the boss. Roman we've both been giving chance after chance to succeed and somehow you always seem to Heal from your failures, while He always got HURT from his failures. But the boss is demanding that we ensure your failure hurts you Roman. So we're corporate now Roman. We've got stocks and portfolios and a corner office. Bray Wyatt then drinks from a mug labeled "World's #1 Fiend". Then Rabin Rabbit says that the Fiend is going to kill Roman to which Bray spits out his coffee. Bray hushes up Rambit. Bray Wyatt then says that when you're desperate for something, you'll do anything for it, isn't that right Roman? And he's desperate to hurt you Roman. So, Let Him In.
