Roman Promo:
“At RR, I beat Kevin Owens, cuz I’m a man of my word. Edge won Rumble. That means he has a ticket to the main event of Wrestlemania. I’m the main event of Wrestlemania. I have two issues with Edge. Why would he disrespect me by wasting his time on RAW or NXT. Why did I come out here FIRST? Why isn’t he out here right now begging me, pleading with me to let him have a shot? Why would you waste my time? Where is he? Get him out here Paul.”
Paul tries to get Edge out, no deal.
“He must think I’m a fool. Am I fool Paul? Am I a man who looks like he wants to play games? WHY WOULD YOU PLAY GAMES WITH ME? The last man to play games with me. His name is Kevin Owens. He’s no longer here cuz I whupped his ass. He’s history, he’s done. Edge, I’m gonna say this nicely. You need to understand this, you BETTER give me your answer tonight.”

When I won the Rumble, my whole life changed overnight, doing press, phone blowing up, people I don’t know- new phone who dis? This is the biggest decision of my life- Asuka on Raw, she’s not just the empress of the tomorrow, she’s the empress of all day every day. Then there’s Sasha Banks, whuppin on bounty hunters across the galaxy.
Reginald interrupts. If you say Asuka, can see that, I can understand it. I am quite certain you could defeat Asuka. But if you say Sasha Banks, well, you know damn well you can’t beat Sasha. You can’t even beat Carmella.
Carmella comes out. My sommelier is wise, but he gets excited. Let’s not forget that I beat Sasha, I can do the same thing to you. BOSS TIME.
Sasha comes out. I know you are the strongest cuz you picked up Otis, the fastest cuz you were faster than Bayley, but the BEST? Laughs, I don’t think so. If you’re gonna choose me, choose me, cuz you have it all, but you don’t have this.
Reginald interrupts: You got lucky winning the Rumble- Bianca whupped Reginald with her hair out the ring

Edge!
Takes the scenic route saying he won the rumble. Who do I choose? Drew, Finn, Roman reigns. Everyone gives me different advice. Even dude on corner. At the end of the day— Roman interrupts.
Edge: you had to bring backup? You already sweating me? I’m here alone.
Roman: man to man, without my blessing, paul will not make a move on you.
Edge: I’m renting space in your head already. That’s why Jey is out here.
Roman: Jey meet me at the bus. I got this. You disrespected me. Acknowledge me. Acknowledge me as the main event of wrestlemania, say my name. That’s your cue. Go.
