We return and The Miz doesn’t make us wait any longer. In the final skit, Cena says “I do… Not ever want to marry you. It would damage my brand.” He goes on and on about he isn’t a real person, he’s fake and he doesn’t care for Nikki. The skit ends with The Miz and Maryse taking off the costumes and saying they know that Cena and Nikki are watching and they will make sure that Wrestlemania is their curtain call. Miz says without WWE, Cena is done (in Hollywood). Maryze says tells Nikki to enjoy the Kids Choice awards because it’s the closest she will be with kids with Cena.

As the skit ends Miz and Maryse stand-up and get an ovation from the fans. Cena and Nikki make their way to the ring. Miz says he’s surprised it even took this long for them to interrupt. John says credit where credit is due, the skit was funny and some of the stuff was on-the-nose.
Cena says it’s one of the few good things he’s done. Cena says they have a problem with them because they believe that what they are saying is true. Cena mentions how Maryse blamed Nikki for Maryse not coming back earlier. Cena states the reason why Maryse didn’t come back sooner was because she wasn’t any good. He says he is as brand loyal as Vince McMahon. Half of the people hate Cena for it. He says he is going to do a movie and come back. He mentions a list of superstars who have done it, including The Miz himself.
Cena says at least The Miz is doing something but he doesn’t know what Maryse is doing. There’s a women’s revolution going on but Maryse does nothing. He calls her a waste of space. The only reason she is back is because The Miz begged WWE to hire her back so he (The Miz) can be on Total Bellas. Cena states that The Miz is using Maryse to be on Total Divas.
