Batista repeated his "real men" question, which drew good heat. He said Dolph Ziggler was the first to answer the question and he paid for it. He said the same thing happened on Raw with Bryan. He said he beat Bryan down in the ring on Monday. The fans booed and Batista said he was their hero, but was humble and didn't need their cheers.

Bryan's music cut him off and Bryan made his entrance to a thunderous response. Bryan asked if Batista really thought he was a hero. The crowd screamed "No!" Batista asked if Bryan thought he was. That got "Yes!" chants. Batista said wrestling got bad when they let fans in the locker room, fans like Bryan. He told Bryan to buy a ticket and see him headline WrestleMania and win the title. Bryan said Batista was correct that he was left lying in the ring, but that was after he had Batista beat and everyone interfered. He said Batista should be embarrassed that a "fan" nearly took him out Monday night.

Batista told Bryan to never presume what he thought. He said he would always be one step ahead of Bryan. He said once he came back the WWE Universe became his and he was allowing Bryan to exist out of the goodness of his heart. He said he had no problem ending that existence if Bryan continued to mouth off.

He said they were supposed to have each other's backs but Rollins walked out in a war. He called out Rollins to explain himself and said based on Roman Reigns's face, he had 30 seconds.

The Shield music hit again and Rollins came out from the back beside the ramp. Reigns took the mic and said before Rollins opened his mouth, he had better thought about what he was going to say and it better be good. Rollins said he may have picked the wrong time to prove a point, but the truth was the war wasn't with the Wyatts, it was within the Shield.

Rollins said he sacrificed himself to help the Shield because they haven't been a unti in months. Ambrose mocked him and Rollins pointed out that Ambrose and Reigns were side-by-side for the first time in months and that proved his points. Rollins finally got in the ring and said they could end it right here, but for months they kicked down walls and they could do it again if they wanted to. Ambrose shoved Rollins down. Reigns shoved Ambrose down. Rollins said he knew what would make him feel better. He slapped Ambrose and said it made him feel great.
