From the stage, Nigel McGuinness said Danielson has refused to acknowledge his challenge. He says Danielson is faking an injury, but in reality, Bryan fears Nigel. McGuinness tells him to accept the match for the fans. The fans cheer Danielson, but identify with him. Tony Schiavone came to Danielson's defense. He said he's seen what McGuinness has been doing for weeks. He states that Danielson doesn't fear McGuinness, he's not cleared. Schiavone says that Danielson is the greatest wrestler he's ever seen or called in his career. McGuinness said he's lucky it was him that said those words and told Schiavone to sit down and shut his mouth. 

Schiavone returned to the announce table and McGuinness made his way to the ring. He wants Danielson to meet him in the middle of the ring to finish the chapter of their story. McGuinness has told anyone who would listen that he was as good as Danielson, but nobody listened. McGuinness said "why would they? There are only two people in the world today who know what I am saying is true...me and you. And that's exactly why you have refused to answer my challenge." When he beats Danielson, he will have vindication. Even if Danielson doesn't show, McGuinness will still be vindicated.
