Don’t come at me with threats then try to cover up your tracks, I would never ever work with you. I gave you the benefit of the doubt and wished you well but it turns out you’re just a moron....

Fans might remember that Cass and Janela were involved in an incident a WrestlePro event back in September. Janela decided not to press charges on Cass, or the latter could've possibly ended up going to jail. There's still no word as to why Cass decided to target Janela again, around three months after the WrestlePro incident.

He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback.
