- We go right to the ring and out comes Cody Rhodes to a pop. Rhodes is wearing a suit tonight. He takes his time walking to the ring and the pyro goes of. Rhodes greets fans on his way to the ring as Mike Rome introduces The American Nightmare.

Rhodes enters the ring and the music stops as fans chant his name and chant "welcome back!" as he takes it all in. Rhodes asks the crowd what they want to talk about and they pop. Rhodes says it's been 47 days since the abrupt news came out that he was a free agent. He heard all the theories. Everyone thinks the decision to return to WWE was difficult but it was not, it was simple really. The "star" that left them in the "dust" and the man that has signed a multi-year agreement, standing here now, and if there was... fans interrupt with a "you deserve it!" chant. If there was a glimmer of doubt, then the moment he rose up in front of 70,000+ fans, the moment he made the WrestleMania walk and beat a top Superstar in Seth Rollins, that doubt was eradicated. Rhodes recalls a quote he found, about how a man finds his destiny on the path he takes to avoid it.

Cody shows us a photo of his father, WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes, on the big screen. It's so easy to say that's his father, yeah he's a legend, a common man, the son of a plumber, but to Cody he was his hero. Fans chant "Dusty!" now. Rhodes says the photo on the screen was taken in 1977 at Madison Square Garden, showing Dusty holding the title that WWE Hall of Famers like Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Triple H would get their hands on, and many other greats. Cody says this photo was on the mantel in his parent's bedroom until his father's last day. Cody gets a bit emotional and says as he got hip to the industry, he found the courage to say to his dad, he didn't know he was champion like Hogan was. His dad looked at him with the same eyes his daughter Liberty does, and explained how it was champion's advantage and he won by count out but didn't take the title home. Cody was just 8 years old and he knew then that he would win this title one day, he would place it and bestow it into the hands of The American Dream, telling him no one can take it from you now. Rhodes says for those who are new to his journey, unfortunately that Dream died, it died right in front of him, the opportunity passed.

Cody is getting emotional as he continues with this story. He says that opportunity passed, or did it? He says he cannot physically put that title into his father's hands, he can't physically bestow it onto The American Dream, but he can certainly put it around the waist of The American Nightmare. Fans chant "Cody!" and "you can do it!" now. Cody says his intentions are clear, he's made it clear, he stands in front of us ready, finally ready, and he's going to do it, he's going to give the distinction that his family has long since been denied, he's doing it for the fans, for himself, for his family, and he's going to do it for The American Dream, Dusty Rhodes. The music interrupts and out comes Seth Rollins. Rollins dances to the stage as fans sing along with his theme.

Rollins enters the ring and stares Rhodes down. Rhodes stares back and drops the mic, then extends his hand for a shake. Rollins just looks at him as they stand in the middle of the ring. Fans chant "yes!" now. Rollins finally shakes Cody's hand while smiling and mouthing something to him that we can't hear. Cody's music starts back up as Rollins exits the ring. Graves says Rollins said "welcome home" to Cody.

- Jimmy says new Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be here tonight. Also, RAW Tag Team Champions RK-Bro and WWE United States Champion Finn Balor will face SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos and Austin Theory in six-man action.
