Rhodes notes that this all seems familiar. This isn’t the first time he has been in the ring with Rollins in Buffalo. Rollins starts to talk but Rhodes plays to the crowd, which causes them to cheer. Rollins tells Rhodes never to do that again. So naturally, Rhodes does, Rollins goes nuts and tells Rhodes no matter what he did the last few years, he made Rhodes a superstar at WrestleMania. Rhodes only beat him at WrestleMania because Rollins didn’t have a chance to prepare.

It’s hard enough to accept that, especially since some people now think Rhodes is better than him. Not a chance. Rollins exclaims he is better than Rhodes in every way. Rollins reminds Rhodes that he’s never been champion but he has so that inherently makes Rollins better. Rhodes asks the people if they think he is better than Rollins. The crowd agrees en mass. Rollins goes nuts and says if Rhodes thinks it’s so easy, how about Rhodes stands in the ring in the main event and Rollins picks a  surprise opponent for him. Rhodes. Rhodes says he didn’t come here to run away from challenges, so his answer is yes.
