Stephanie McMahon tells the WWE Universe that they should be chanting “YES!” because Daniel Bryan had successful neck surgery this past Thursday. Stephanie reminds the fans about Daniel Bryan becoming champion at Wrestlemania and marrying Brie Bella, then plugs that Part 1 of the wedding will air this Sunday on Total Divas.

Stephanie McMahon says Daniel Bryan has overcome every obstacle and that his “YES!” chant has inspired everyone over the world, from celebrities to people like herself and the fans. Stephanie mocks the WWE Universe by taking herself out of that sentence, then mentions that Bryan is doing everything he can to come back since he knows the WWE Universe needs an active champion. Stephanie McMahon says that since she knows Daniel Bryan is convalescing at home and hanging on her every word, she has something to say to him. Rather than say Bad News Barrett’s catchphrase, Stephanie plays a Bad News Barrett montage.

After the Bad News Barrett montage, Stephanie McMahon imitates Bad News Barrett’s catchphrase.

Stephanie says she could award it to Bad News Barrett, which the WWE Universe likes, but Stephanie makes fun of them for being predictable. Stephanie teases awarding the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to Triple H.

John Cena tells Renee Young that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Cena’s plan is the same as it was last week. Step 1. Invite The Usos. Cena tells Renee and The Usos that the odds are stacked against him because The Wyatt Family has a lot of followers in the UK tonight, so there is desperation, but he loves desperation because it creates moments of opportunity to succeed and fail.

John Cena says in times of desperation, he fears no man and turns down no fight because they will find a way to win. Cena says The Usos are the Tag Team Champions and they have the heart of a Champion. Cena and The Usos start beating their chest and doing a chant.
