He says that he also has a vision of a WWE without Sami Zayn, then says he doesn't like anything about Zayn. He says he will never understand why fans cheer for Zayn, then promises to maul him if he gets in the ring with him tonight and says he will be looking at the lights if he chooses to do so.
Rollins asks Breakker if he's good, then hands the microphone to Reed. He says he's the man who hit Rollins with six Tsunamis, but all the pain he caused him made Rollins respect him and bring him into his vision. He says he will get the respect he deserves, but Jey Uso doesn't respect him and promises to Tsunami the respect into him like he did with Rollins.

He says Zayn is first on his list, then comes Jey after that before addressing Roman Reigns and adding that he isn't brave enough to face him, Rollins, Breakker, and Reed.
