Harwood brought up Santana & Ortiz and that there isn’t a grain of salt in their body. Dax added that this is a professional wrestling company, not an SNL skit like Inner Circle was trying to make it.

MJF joked that he thought Jericho was going to come out here and “break the walls down” but all he is breaking these days are the chairs he tries to sit on. Tony interrupted and said Inner Circle is obviously hurt because The Pinnacle destroyed them a couple weeks ago.
