Shinsuke Nakamura interrupts Roman Reigns. His partner Rick Boogs was injured against The Usos at WrestleMania.

Roman says he has achieved it all, but The Bloodline still has more to do. He says it's time for The Usos to unify the Tag Team Championship. Roman wants Jimmy and Jey to win the RAW Tag Team Titles for themselves and The Bloodline.

Roman says SmackDown and the Universal Championship were not enough, so he smashed Cowboy Brock and took the WWE Championship as well.

Roman Reigns tells Milwaukee to acknowledge him.
