After a long intro video to start the show, Cena makes his way out to the ring taht has the cage set up.

Cena showered with boos.

He simply aks Why? Why did he deserve the 3 on 1 last week?

He stops to let the You Suck chant breath.

We didn't him a chance last week and he wants to know why.

"Someone once said you either die or live long enough to become a villain.  I believe that"

He talks about change over the years and he understands the fans resentment.

He talks about his passion and then starts to put over and name drop a ton of the young talent including "guys you haven't heard of yet down in NXT like Adrian Neville and Sami Zayn".

He says that Wyatt isn't like that.  His passions is destruction.

Cena wants to keep the Wyatt Family out of the match and Bray's message trapped in the cage.

Awesome stuff from Cena onight.

The Wyatt titantron briefly appears and instead of the Wyatts its a chorus of children singing Whole Word in his Hands as Cena looks on.

That was a fantastic segment

We come back from break and Cena is still in the cage.  The kids have surrounded the ring and they all have sheep masks on.

Wyatts are out and Bray has one of the kids sitting on his knees as he just laughs maniacally at Cena.

It cuts back to commercial again

We come back from break again and they show us what we missed during the break and it was Wyatt leading the kids down to ringside and singing with them.

"Sing with me children!"

Amazing.
