Video Package: Cody Rhodes’ Road to WrestleMania goes through The
Bloodline with their newest member, The Rock.
The Grayson Waller Effect with special guests “The American
Nightmare” Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin”
Rollins
Austin Theory is in the ring. Theory says he tried vegemite for the
first time and hated it. Theory then tried authentic Australian food
at Outback Steakhouse. Theory then introduces Grayson Waller.
Grayson Waller, a native of Australia, comes out to a big ovation.
Waller does a shoey with UFC fighter Tai Tuivasa. This involves
pouring a drink into a shoe and drinking out of the shoe. Waller
says this is the greatest day of his life and leads the crowd in an
Australian chant. Waller then introduces his first guest, World
Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins.
World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins comes out to a big
ovation. The crowd loudly sings his song. Rollins has been champion
for 272 days and counting. Rollins stands in the ring and listens to
the crowd sing. Waller’s next guest is a man who should thank the
American education system for his inability to finish a story, “The
American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes.
“Wrestling has more than one royal family.”
“The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes comes out to a big ovation. The
crowd loudly sings Rhodes’ song as well. Rhodes gets an elaborate
pyrotechnics and fireworks display. This is definitely a superstar
entrance. The crowd chants for Cody. Rhodes grabs a microphone and
says, “So, Perth, whattaya wanna talk about?” Waller says this is
his show. What he wants to talk about is taking a moment in
Australia to acknowledge “The Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns. The crowd
holds up some ones.
Waller asks Rollins who he wants to fight coming out of the
Elimination Chamber match. Rollins says the match is stacked, but he
has some inside information. Rollins has a secret. Rollins says he
is just days away from being medically cleared to compete. Whoever
wins that Chamber match coming up to take a crack at his World
Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania doesn’t stand a chance.
It’s WrestleMania 40, the biggest WrestleMania of all time. The
world will sing his song. Perth loudly sings Rollins’ song. Rollins
will do what only he can: put on a show like nobody on this planet.
Rollins is a visionary and a revolutionary. He is Seth “Freakin”
Rollins. Rollins says that was a big pop.
Waller sarcastically says that was a big story. Waller says we had a
huge main event in The Rock vs. Roman Reigns taken away from us.
Waller asks Rhodes about taking it away from the fans. A loud “Rocky
sucks” chant picks up. Rhodes says he’s a fan of Dwayne “The Rock”
Johnson. Rhodes mentions some of Rock’s catchphrases. Waller
interjects that he calls Rhodes fans “Cody Crybabies.” Rhodes asks
if there are any Cody Crybabies here tonight. The crowd roars.
Rhodes wants to explain why he stepped out of the WrestleMania Main
Event only to step back in. Waller says when you’re talking about
the People’s Champion, he should do what he’s told. Rhodes says you
can’t appoint yourself as the People’s Champion. To be the People’s
Champion, you have to be around the people. Maybe The Rock was at
one point.
Rhodes says Rollins had an announcement, but he has one himself. The
Rock slapped Rhodes in the face a few weeks back. Rhodes is wide
open until WrestleMania. Rhodes wants to wrestle The Rock
one-on-one, anytime and anyplace. The crowd cheers. Rollins gets up
and puts a hand on Rhodes’ shoulder. Rollins says it’s time to cut
the head off the snake once and for all. Rollins admires the
challenge to The Rock, but when it comes to The Bloodline, there is
no such thing as “one-on-one.” If and when The Rock decides to take
Rhodes up on that challenge, Rhodes won’t be fighting that battle on
his own.
Waller puts over the big news, but Theory takes the microphone.
Theory asks Rhodes if he really thinks he’s going to face The Rock…
only it doesn’t matter what he thinks! Theory then says, “Finally,
Austin Theory has come to Perth, Australia to finish his story!”
Rollins cackles and asks Theory to give one more big one. Theory
then starts to say, “If you smellllll…” but Rollins sends him into a
Grayson Waller Effect sign. Rhodes then drops Theory with a Cody
Cutter. Waller stands back and watches as Rollins hits Theory with a
Stomp. Rhodes and Rollins shake hands in the ring.
