Christian Cage’s music hits and the “Instant Classic” is on his way to the ring. To this point Christian (along with AJ Styles and Booker T.) is unscheduled for BFG. Christian says that all he he’s been hearing lately is how he should choice a side between the young guys and the veterans. He says that he’s “The Champ” and he’ll pick a side when he wants to. He then says that maybe he doesn’t want to pick or side or need to pick a side. Booker’s music hits and out comes the Houston Royalty with his wife. Booker says that he didn’t come out for trouble, he came to reason with Christian and persuade him to join the veterans.
