In a special interview with WWE's official website, Cesaro expressed his own frustrations over being forced to play second fiddle to authority figures on Raw. To play off of this, Mick Foley could approach the Swiss Superman backstage during his warm up and try to have some clear the air talks.

As the legend repeatedly tried to reason with Cesaro, the wrestler would just go about his business, stretching and readying himself. Continuing, Foley tells Cesaro that there's a reason he's in this contendership match for the WWE United States Title. Those in charge want to see him succeed.

Stopping Foley, Cesaro then corrects him. He's in this match because he's one of the best pro wrestlers in the world, and he plans on proving that in the ring tonight. From there, Cesaro goes on to defeat the likes of Chris Jericho, Sheamus and a returning Neville to become the top contender for Rusev's United States gold.

Emphatically, he is handed some promo time afterwards, but keeps things short and sweet. Cesaro's goal is to show the COO and GM exactly why he's the best wrestler on Raw.
