MIDDLE CARD PROMO

THE MIZ: "Brooklyn, at WrestleMania I dropped Shane McMahon flat on his over-privileged face!" "And the best part? It wasn’t backstage. It wasn’t through a table or off a scaffold. I beat Shane in the ring. 1, 2, 3."

[He plays up the dropkick finish, calling it poetic justice. He talks about doing it for himself, Maryse, and his father.]

"I did what every single one of you wanted to do: I shut Shane McMahon up."

[Miz now calls Greg Hamilton into the ring.]

"Greg, come in here, don’t be shy. You’ve had to scream ‘Best in the World’ every week like your paycheck depended on it. Well guess what, it’s a new era on SmackDown LIVE."

[Greg nervously joins Miz in the ring.]

MIZ, mockingly: "How did he used to make you say it? Like this?..."

(in exaggerated voice)

“THE BEST… IN THE WOOOOORLD… SHANE… McMAHOOON! Ugh, makes me sick. Let’s try something different. Let’s hear it the way it should’ve sounded at WrestleMania. Greg… why don’t you introduce me properly?"

[Greg Hamilton hesitates, but The Miz smiles and waves it on.]

“Ladies and gentlemen… THE MIZ!”

MIZ, grinning: "Much better. You see, I don’t need to bully people into saying my name. I let my actions do the talking. Now Shane, I know guys like you don’t take embarrassment well. I know you're out there somewhere, watching this, plotting your revenge. I know this isn’t over for you and that’s fine. Just know one thing: You wanted a fight? You got one. And next time I won’t just embarrass you. I’ll end this!"

VIGNETTE: A cardboard box sits on a table in a completely dark room as child-like piano music plays over the camera slowly zooming in. Suddenly the box springs open and a buzzard puppet pops up. The buzzard turns around a several times as laughter is heard.
