The Miz says Cena has left a hole that he has had to fill as locker room leader, and says that he will not leave the ring until he gets his WrestleMania moment this year after missing out last year. John Cena simply leaves and lets The Miz get his moment, which is immediately interrupted by Danhausen, who is introduced by tiny Danhausens as he drives what looks like a vehicle from Wacky Races. From a more distant angle, the vehicle is noted to look like a coffin. Danhausen gets in the ring with the tiny Danhausens and shakes John Cena's hand, and The Miz says that if he wanted to see The Wizard of Oz, he would have went down the street.
