Michael Cole is not on commentary and is replaced by Byron Saxton for the week.
Seth Rollins, Kane and J&J Security (Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble) are in the ring, with Big Show next to his Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy outside near the commentary table. Rollins says that Triple H and Stephanie McMahon are not here tonight. He then brags about his World Heavyweight Championship win, Big Show's Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal win and Triple H's win against Sting. Show puts Rollins on a pedestal, as does Rollins himself. As Kane speaks, Randy Orton shows up and brags about the RKO he beat him with at WrestleMania before saying he should get a rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship. He takes some cheap shots at Kane's Director of Operations position as he does so, then Kane tells Orton there are others worthy of a title shot. He makes a Triple Threat match for tonight to decide a #1 contender for Seth's title at Extreme Rules: Roman Reigns vs. Ryback vs. Randy Orton. All three participants will have singles matches prior to the three-way dance, and Randy's is next...against Kane. As soon as this match is announced, Rollins is livid.

Kane yells at a returning Brad Maddox, and Rollins yells at Kane for "not pulling his weight." Kane reminds Rollins that he is World Heavyweight champ because of him, and says giving him a worthy opponent is best for business. He then plays Rollins' bluff by saying Rollins is scared of him Rollins says he isn't, and that Kane should step down as Director of Operations, even going so far as to threaten to tell Triple H and Stephanie McMahon about this when they get back. Kane then puts Rollins in a match...and it's up next.
Kane gives Seth Rollins a match tonight. His opponent? WWE newcomer, Neville, who he takes lightly until he gets kicked in the gut.
