Ric Flair, hyped up by some rare TV time, asked Sarah Schreiber where SmackDown was on Friday. Misunderstanding the legend, Schreiber didn't know what to say and meekly offered, "Cleveland". Without missing a step, Ric said he knew where they were for Raw, but couldn't wait to get to Kansas City this weekend.

That's the problem with WWE's heavily-scripted, mannequin-esque promo style for backstage announcers. They struggle to improv when the time calls for it, and that's likely why Schreiber was the proverbial deer in headlights here.
