They come out and say the crowd wants to hear them drop some rhymes with Cena. John acts like he isn't up to it before Jimmy and Jey goad him into rapping.
Cena makes fun of The Usos for getting arrested before Rikishi comes to the ring. He asks Cena to dance with him and his sons but The Revival interrupts before the music can start. They are joined by D-von Dudley.
