In a completely random segment, Elias berated the fans of Cleveland using his guitar skills. As has become the norm, the brand new NXT recruit Lacey Evans came down the ramp, posed for the camera, and went back without speaking a single word.

Randy Orton had been taunting AJ since the past few weeks, interrupting his backstage interviews on multiple occasions.

Tonight's moment was the perfect kick-off to this rivalry that's going to end with a show-stealer at Mania.
