John Morrison The Miz Roman Reigns

Some of JoMo's humour fell a little flat with the live crowd in Indiana. At one point, he said he was supposed to have a new entrance at WrestleMania that'd see him pulled to the ring by a group of Pomeranian dogs. Then, Morrison said he picked small dogs because "this show can only have one big dog".

That was a reference to Roman Reigns' nickname 'Big Dog'. Roman himself would rebrand himself later in the show. Sort of.
