Stephanie McMahon shows up to start the show, but she doesn't even make it down the entrance ramp when Roman Reigns' music hits. Stephanie makes her way to the ring and looks for Roman while Roman makes her way to the ring. She finds him, and the two stare down before they both enter the ring. Roman calls out Vince McMahon, but Stephanie says he's not here yet but will be there in time to referee his WWE World Heavyweight Championship defense against Sheamus. Roman makes it clear that nobody will take the World Heavyweight title from him, as if he loses it, he loses his job and can't provide for his family. Stephanie laughs, saying nobody competes against Vince and wins, that charges against Vince have been dropped, and that "she's the boss and he's the help." Stephanie then says she plans to use him until he can't be used anymore once he loses the title, just like Vince used his father, but Roman tells her to worry about Vince, because if he is screwed out of the title tonight, Stephanie will be picking Vince up from a hospital instead of a jail cell.
