Ricochet doesn’t have his robe and says it is getting some upgrades—everyone will see it on Sunday. Ricochet says Swerve started this by mocking and bullying him. Ricochet says he still beat Swerve despite it all. As Ricochet keeps talking, Swerve repeatedly tells him to sign the contract.
Swerve finally blows up and says he started this to expose Ricochet as a coward and a loser. The biggest mistake Ricochet made was leaving him breathing, and Swerve says that is a mistake he will regret.
