Before Rollins could continue, Damian Priest’s music interrupted and made his way to the ring. Priest stated that he is not being sarcastic and wanted to come out here to welcome Rollins back. After some more words of praise towards Rollins, Priest stated that he has been wanting some face-to-face time with him because he wanted to tell Rollins that he wanted to cash in the Money in the Bank contract on him. After some more words by Priest, Rollins responded talking about Priest having a long weekend and “almost lost a leg in Scotland.” Rollins then talked about them being a lot alike over how they both made their names in groups, Priest made his name in Judgement Day while he made his name in the greatest group of all time, The Shield. Rollins stated that they both held the Money in the Bank contract for a long time and cashed in foe their first World title at WrestleMania. Rollins stated that the one thing that separates them is that at some point, Rollins grew a set. Rollins stated that he wants to be the greatest of all time and to have that legacy, he has to stand on hos own two feet. Rollins asked Priest ” what kind of champion does he want to be? What does Priest want his legacy to be in this industry? Does he want to be the greatest of all time or a footnote in the Judgment Day?” Priest responded stating that it is a fair question but he wants to remind Rollins of something and that he was Rollins first challenger for the title. Priest stated at the time, Rollins beat him because Rollins was better than him but times have changed. After some more words, Priest issued a challenge for his World title at Money in the Bank against Rollins. Rollins responded asking if this is a trap, which Priest responded back stating that this is not a trap since Judgement Day does not know he is out here. Priest asked again if Rollins wants a shot at his title and after some “Yes” chants by the crowd, Rollins accepted and stating that as long as he is around here, this show will always and forever be “Monday Night Rollins” before walking away.

This led to Gable grabbing Durpri’s crutch and tossed it away and then told Dupri and Tozawa to get out of here before slapping Tozawa sending him to the ground.

After they left, an angry Gable responded shouting that they are expelled from the Academy and they will be nothing without him and stated that he was going to compete in the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder match.
