Instead of the usual voice-overs, we get actual sit down interviews with Bryan and Glen talking directly to the camera. They share the story over how they bonded through "downtowning" people with a song they both liked. Bryan admitted the anger management classes didn't come off well until he saw the final edits of them. There's an outtake from one of the sessions as well (Glen cracking up at "you two have balls"), Dr Shelby gets mad props as does The Shield (good thing the guys taking the belts happened to be Seth and Roman in this instance, otherwise it'd probably have been glossed over), and Bryan and Jacobs both express their annoyance that their team-naming poll did not lead to them being called "Team Friendship" as they had merch plans if it did.

Remember when Stevie Richards was a hound of justice?

...why didn't they just rig the poll so that Team Friendship won?

...why didn't they just rig the poll so that Team Friendship won? I think WWE prefers to not outright rig fan vote stuff. They will absolutely stack the deck when they want a particular thing to win, but I think unless they have no real choice, they won't just fix something the fans vote on.

I think the most compelling argument that WWE takes fan votes like that seriously is that they had a great name like Altitude Era and yet they went with Air Boom.

The weird part is that they totally did rig one of those Universe polls, but for whatever reason, the one they chose to lie about was the meaningless AJ Lee shipping poll where #AJAll was the only option that trended that night, but #AJPunk was somehow the winner.
(My favorite WWE poll wackiness will always be, vote on which match stipulation will be used tonight! Your options are Street Fight, Falls Count Anywhere, and No Holds Barred. What do you mean they are the same match? Your input matters!)

Instead of AJ and Punk leaving the business and getting married, we could be in the 7th (holy shit that was SEVEN YEARS AGO?!) year of a polygamous square of AJ, Punk, Bryan, and Kane.

The dumbest rigging that they tried to sneak past us was trying to get Mason Ryan as the winner to have a match with Evan Borne when everyone and their mother knew people wanted to see him fight Sin Cara. It was a rigging so dumb they tried to explain it away as "computer issue"

Punk and AJ might be the one REAL LIFE COUPLE with less onscreen chemistry than Seth and Becky.

What I'm getting out of this is WWE thought putting Charlie Sheen in a match would have been a good idea.

Votes for Kelly Kelly from the previous match were wrongly given to Ryan.
