Jericho asks them about their invasion of RAW several months ago. They inform that they kept getting cease and desist letters from WWE, regarding things they were saying in Being the Elite. They intended for the invasion to be a parody of original DX invasion, where they’d show up and find the stooge within WWE who’s watching their videos and sending them these letters.

Jimmy Jacobs came running out and gave them a big hug because they hadn’t seen each other in a couple of years. They told him not to tweet the selfie he took because they knew he’d get fired, but he did it anyways. Jericho points out that Jacobs had to know what he was doing that day; he knew he’d be the biggest babyface in the wrestling world after getting fired for taking a picture with the Bucks.

They were forced to stop the “too sweet” hand gesture after that invasion but they weren’t concerned because they wanted to cut it out of their act anyways. WWE’s cease and desist letter just made it way easier for them to do so. They add that they never meant to mock veteran performers by utilizing that gesture. Rather, they were influenced by lots of wrestlers and did that as a tribute to the guys who came before them.
