Heyman says now is not a good time. Stewart asks if this is because he’s an “Undertaker guy.” Heyman asks Stewart how he felt when his beast took out “your guy.” Stewart said wrestling fans didn’t like that, that’s who didn’t like it. He compares other famous streaks ending to Undertaker’s. He asked if Heyman was happy to see all those fans faces looking so sad.

Stewart asks what he thinks of that. Heyman starts defiantly singing, “Glory, glory Brock Lesnar!” He says, “I guess we couldn’t get David Letterman to host this thing, eh?” He goes back in Lesnar’s locker room and says, “You aren’t going to believe this one!”
