Kofi says hello to the people of Portland. He says since he won the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania, he has faced some of the greatest moments of his career and of his life. On the flip side, he has also experienced some of the most painful, agonizing and brutalizing moments. Defending the title in a steel cage on Sunday was a combination of those. Kofi says he had to take an actual leap of faith over Dolph Ziggler to be victorious. Before he had a chance to celebrate and take a victory lap, this happened on Raw.

Kofi says that was brutal, devastating, agonizing, and incredibly painful. Samoa Joe is not a complicated man. He is like a force of nature. When he has the Coquina Clutch around you, it is like a great white shark.

Kofi asks how many times does he have to beat him.
Dolph says this is not a joke. This is his life and career. You know that Xavier Woods saved you at Super Showdown. At Stomping Grounds, we went face to face inside a steel cage for the WWE Title and what happened? You took the coward’s way out and leapt through the door to save your title. Everyone knows he should be WWE Champion right now.
Dolph says if he wins his match against Kofi tonight, he will be added to the WWE title match at Extreme Rules. Then and only then will he truly get what he deserves, the WWE Championship.
Dolph says since he was talking with management that you cannot take the coward’s way out. It is a two out of three falls match. Dolph wishes Kofi luck.
