Ziggler says Kingston should be worrying about him and their match at Super ShowDown. He asks Kingston to celebrate his accomplishment because he’s the best WWE Champion. But he also says it should have been me. Ziggler asks what will happen to millions of fans when he takes the title from Kingston. He says, at Super ShowDown, “it will be me.”

He says Roman Reigns hasn’t;t learned respect because he hit Vince McMahon. Shane runs through Reigns’ family tree and says two of them were the most vicious of all time: the Wild Samoans.
