Nikki says she is the biggest fan of theirs and takes a selfie with them. Alexa asks if they can call Sean Waltman X Pac or 123 Kid or other names he’s been called. Sean says to just call him a Hall Of Famer. Alexa brings up Goldberg to them. She asks Nash what Roman has to do to beat Goldberg. He says he forgot he beat Goldberg back in WCW. He says to call Scott Hall to use the taser again.
Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro interrupt and Sami says everyone needs to stop living in the past and look to the future. He claims they are the future and will prove it when they take the Intercontinental Championship from Braun Strowman at Elimination Chamber. Sami praises Scott and Kevin’s Intercontinental title runs but then insults Sean Waltman for saying he carries their bags. Kevin insults Sami for looking like Seth Rogan after a stomach flu. The NWO were ready to fight them until Sami, Cesaro and Shinsuke back down. Sami says they are focused more on Braun than the NWO.
Braun comes out and takes Shinsuke and Cesaro out on the stage. The NWO trap Sami in the ring. Sami escapes as he uses Alexa as a shield to get away from Braun. Braun throws the props from the segment out of the ring. Braun claims that all three of them will get these hands at Elimination Chamber. He says it will be “Too Sweet” as a nod to the NWO.
