Cena says if Rock has a bone to pick over the way he is, then they have to talk. If not, Cena asks The Rock who the hell he is to judge him. Who is The Rock to tell Cena how to live his life.

Rock says he won't judge Cena, there's only one man who judges people and that's the good Lord. The Rock says but the Lord won't stop him from whooping Cena's candy ass all over Chicago.

Miz says Cena is going to lose at WrestleMania but at least he will go down swinging. Miz says Cena will come for a fight, unlike The Great One. Miz says he knows something that nobody else knows, a secret about The Rock. Miz says Rock won't do a thing tonight, nothing. Miz says he has done his researched and Rock's movies have grossed lots of money. Miz says one of the biggest movie stars in the world wouldn't risk getting beat up and embarrassed by him.
