AJ Styles, Andrew Schulz, Logan Paul Segment 

Logan Paul: Madison Square Garden. Look, AJ Styles, he was supposed to call me out or something, but I thought I would beat him to the punch, because I don’t really associate with guys like AJ Styles. It sounds and looks like y’all forgot, I’m Logan Paul. And when you hear that name, you think of names like, The Rock, John Cena, names that have transcended sports and entertainment. Names of guys who would do anything that it takes to get to the top. Which to be honest, it’s why I’m so shocked that Cody Rhodes was dumb enough to reject The Rock’s offer, an opportunity of a lifetime. It took John Cena 20 years, 20 years to realize that nice guys finish last. But I’ve known that since day one, which is why, Dwayne, The Rock, The Final Boss, whatever they’re calling you these days, buddy, consider my soul for sale. I don’t run away from opportunities that present themselves. That’s why I’m at Madison Square Garden, in the middle of this ring, and you regulars are all watching from the crowd. You’re watching on TV, I’m the celebrity, I’m the talent. That’s why celebrities come to these events. That’s why guys like Andrew Schulz are here. There he is, yeah, Schulz, I see you, and I know you see me. Real recognize real. Talent recognizes talent. In fact, check this out, give this dude a mic. Come on, I’ve done his podcast. Come on, you always got something to say, don’t be shy. Come on, Schulzy. Come on, tell the people why you came to MSG tonight.

Andrew Schulz: I came out to MSG tonight, for the same reason we’re all here, to see the Steel Cage Match, that’s why I came out. To see CM Punk and Seth Rollins, that’s who I came to see.

Logan Paul: Okay, those are guys who are here. But who did you actually come to see me, tonight?

Andrew Schulz: Logan, nobody is here to see you. You’re not in Cleveland, Ohio, buddy. This is New York City. This is a real city, a real arena, and we like real wrestlers. I know who I want to see. I want to see AJ Styles, that’s who I want to see tonight.

AJ Styles: Get your ass back in this ring, I’m not done with you. Come on, Logan. Come on, you don’t run from opportunities. Oh, you’re going to walk your sorry ass to the back. Come on, Logan, this is New York City. Andrew, this is New York City.

Styles gives Schulz a big hug to close this segment.

Cody Rhodes Promo 

Cody Rhodes: So, New York City, what do we want to talk about? So, we can talk about while I’m here, I’m here because it’s the cathedral of entertainment, it’s the home base of WWE, it’s the center of the universe, it’s The Garden. My opponent, John Cena, who I know is going to be at WrestleMania 41 is not here tonight. Apparently, he’s told his inner circle, I guess that consist of Travis Scott, “The Final Boss” The Rock, he’s told them that he wasn’t going to be here, but he was going to be in Brussels, Belgium, next week. I don’t know if I like that, I mean, this is the same John Cena who won the United States Title, right here. The same John Cena, who came back from having his pec being torn off the bone, and won the Royal Rumble, here in MSG. And he can’t be here with us tonight. Apparently, it wasn’t an easy decision. It’s also an easy decision to swing at someone, after you kicked them in the nuts, and you have back up.

I do not begrudge a legend who has earn the right to call his shots. I don’t begrudge John Cena for having a part-time schedule, because John Cena part-time is better than most people full-time. What I do begrudge is, the day after the Elimination Chamber, John Cena goes on social media. Fun things happened when it’s live on Netflix, so go ahead with all of that. John Cena is sitting somewhere, let him hear it. What I do begrudge is him going on social media, where he took to X, and he said, have the discipline to do what needs to be done even if you don’t feel like it. What needs to be done? You ever had that teacher you wanted to be challenged by? A mentor, that you accepted their lessons, even though they were almost spiteful and jarring.

That coach that stands on the sidelines, while you’re amidst of the fight, while you’re amidst of the game, and they’re still calling plays. At a certain point, you have to look over, and say, John, sit down, you god damn moron. Best for business, best for business, right. Nobody defined best for business more than John Cena. But I don’t know, there’s almost 17,000 people in the building tonight, I think we know what’s best for business. Perhaps the business has changed. I’ll tell you, it’s always tacky to tout stats in the carnival spark, but here’s a stat that will never be, it is simply one man’s delusion, one man’s fantasy, and that is 17. 17 does not happened, but what does happen is that I get the heart-breaking privilege of beating my hero in his last chance, while he finds out what all of you already know. And he finds out in real time, John, I’m the captain now. New York, god bless you guys, good night.

Michael Cole: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the brand-new Women’s World Champion, Iyo Sky. Iyo, congratulations, you are going to WrestleMania, as the Women’s World Champion. An unbelievable match last week versus Rhea Ripley, how are you feeling, tonight?

Iyo Sky: You know, Michael. Thank you so much, thank you. It’s a dream to be here at Madison Square Garden as champion. I proved that impossible is possible, just like I said. And now, I’m over the moon to be champion going to WrestleMania.

Michael Cole: Well, Iyo, you’re going to have your work cut out for you. Ladies and gentlemen, the number one contender for the Women’s World Championship, the winner of the Elimination Chamber, Bianca BelAir.

Bianca BelAir: First of all, I just wanted to say, congratulations on last week. Listen, I know we haven’t always seen eye to eye, but I can honestly say that I’m so excited for us to go to WrestleMania.

Michael Cole: Bianca, I have to ask you the question. You were standing right there, last week, during the Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky match, and you got involved a little bit with Rhea. So, is it fair to say that, if you weren’t out here last week, perhaps Rhea Ripley would be the world champion heading into WrestleMania to face you, and not Iyo Sky?

Bianca BelAir: Listen, Michael, I was not planning to come out here to do anything, I have enough drama as it is, okay. I was just out here to see who my WrestleMania opponent was going to be. Now, listen, I apologize to Rhea, because she feels like I disrespected her, but if she thought she was going to put her hands on me, and I wasn’t going to do anything about it, she doesn’t know me at all. So, right now, I’m just trying to focus on WrestleMania.

Rhea Ripley: Cut the music. So, Bianca, let me ask you, what was the reason? What was the reason.

Bianca BelAir: I won the Elimination Chamber, that’s the reason.

Rhea Ripley: Okay, if you weren’t going to intervene, then what was the reason for you to be out here?

Bianca BelAir: I gave you my reason.

Rhea Ripley: I don’t need your excuses, okay, because this was a championship match, so what would you have wanted? To help, Iyo, because you’re scared of me, and you know you can’t be? There was absolutely no reason for you to be out here. Maybe you should have let me handle my business with Iyo, while you handled your own with Naomi and Jade.

Bianca BelAir: Really, Rhea. I got all of this going on, you want to bring that up? Okay, let’s just be real, you’re not mad that I didn’t clap for you, you’re mad because I clapped for Iyo, doesn’t that sound crazy to you? No, this whole thing is a defense mechanism, because you know you can’t beat Iyo, and you’re just trying to blame me.

Rhea Ripley: Oh, so you’re going to try to hide behind Iyo, just like you hide behind Naomi, and just like you hid behind Naomi.

Bianca BelAir: Boy, ain’t nobody hiding right now, so what do you want to do about it? No, you’re acting childish, right now. You want to throw that in my face?

Iyo slaps Rhea and Bianca in the face. She’s had enough of the disrespect. She reminds Rhea and Bianca that she’s the Women’s World Champion to close this segment.
