Bryan goes on about how we all know what will happen at Fastlane if Jey wins tonight. On the other hand, Edge is the ultimate opportunist and will do whatever he needs to get what he wants, and what he wants is to challenge Reigns one-on-one at WrestleMania. Bryan gets it, he understands why and that's because Edge doesn't want to face Bryan, and Edge thinks he can beat Reigns. Bryan says the difference between them is Edge thinks he can beat Reigns, while he knows he can beat Reigns and he will prove it this Sunday when he makes Reigns tap out, just like he did to Uso. The music interrupts and out comes the WWE Universal Champion with Paul Heyman. Fans boo as Reigns raises the title on the ramp and the pyro goes off.

Reigns smirks as Heyman hands him the mic. Reigns laughs at the idea of Bryan tapping him out. Reigns can deal with Bryan telling his little lies, like saying he's ambitious and deserving of the WrestleMania main event, but he can't drag Reigns' name and lie on The Tribal Chief, saying he can tap him out. Reigns says Bryan doesn't stand a chance and has a better chance of shooting lightning out of his ass or sprouting wings and flying out of here like a bird. Reigns says no one in his entire career has tapped him out, he would rather lose his arm than tap to any man. He would rather die in the ring than to tap out to someone like Bryan. Fans boo louder. Bryan says Reigns saying he's rather die is some pretty strong words. Bryan warns that everyone thinks they're invisible until they're not, unbeatable until they lose, and untappable until they tap out. Bryan says he's not just going to make Reigns tap, he's going to break him of his beliefs, his delusions. Bryan goes on and says he doesn't want Reigns to die, but he promises that he will beat Reigns for the title at Fastlane. Bryan's music hits and he starts the "yes!" chant back up as Reigns and Heyman head to the back.

Big E says there's no question that he will retain on Sunday while Crews will get everything he deserves.

He said you fill your mouth with a razor and you will spit blood. That is exactly what will happen to Big E at Fastlane this Sunday.
