Paul Heyman walks out as Bryan is leaving, and he shakes Reigns hand and says last night’s match was a very impressive win by Reigns. Heyman says he can’t say he’s surprised, and he would always bet on Reigns even against several legends in their prime. He says Reigns is the right guy in the right place, but it’s at the wrong time because he is going to fight a beast at Wrestlemania. Heyman says he respects Reigns, but he can’t slay the beast, so any other time his money would be on Reigns, but not this time. Heyman says his money is on his client, and the only thing they will hear at the end of Wrestlemania is that Brock Lesnar is still champion. Reigns wants to hear him say he can’t win again, and Heyman was there the night after the Royal Rumble, but he will tell him again. He says he would beat Brock and make him respect him [Reigns], but now it’s only going to be about how bad he beats him, and Brock won’t like him after that.

Winners (by disqualification) – The Usos
BP: Decent match; I was surprised the titles switched hands last night, but I wouldn’t mind if this sets up a mixed six person tag match at Wrestlemania. Not taking anything away from Naomi or the new champs, but The Usos and Natalya definitely deserve a good Wrestlemania match and moment.
