During the Bloodline segment backstage, Roman told Jey to stay with him while the others left the room, the champion questioned his cousin's loyalty, Jey played down those thoughts before walking away. Paul Heyman asked Roman if he got the answers he was looking for, Roman said yes, however, he looked unsure despite saying that.

Impaulsive TV was next, Logan Paul was great here, he always knows how to get a reaction from the crowd, Seth Rollins was in the control room and cut off the microphone, he played his own music before making his way to the ring, the two brawled until the officials intervened, Logan struck Seth with a right hand before getting away, it is almost guaranteed they will provide us with a WrestleMania Moment when they meet again.
