The Miz is backstage with Maryse, Curt Hawkins, and Bo Dallas. Miz says they’re family while their opponents are untrusting dogs. It’s like his performance in The Marine 5 compared to Tom Cruise in “The Mummy.” Maryse says Hollywood doesn’t have any original ideas. Today’s Hollywood is like Seth Rollins. No original ideas. He’s just trying to reboot a franchise in The Shield. They will prove what’s successful and A-list in WWE. They will lay out Rollins and Ambrose and stand tall. They will prove without a shadow of a doubt that Rollins and Ambrose are a box office bomb.
