He says it's not a big deal as that is just another chapter in his legacy.

Sami Zayn's music hits and he makes his way out to the ring. Zayn gets in the ring and says it's crazy because he was in the back listening to him talking about his legacy. He was thinking about where he's been and where's headed after his IC title reign. He thinks about all the greats who held the title, like Macho Man and Steve Austin and Triple H, The Rock, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart - all of them won the IC belt first and then used that as a stepping stone to the World Title which is what Gunther did... and it's what he's going to do. He tells Gunther he's coming after the title. Gunther comes back with agreeing with Zayn about the greats using the IC title as a stepping stone. He says, however, Zayn kinda stepped down when he held the title and that's why he's not on that list of legends. He says Sami is an underdog and that's why people like him. He says it's impressive Zayn wants to challenge him - he hears the passion in voice and the fire in his eyes and if Zayn really wants this more than anything else, his answer is... No. Gunther drops the mic and leaves Sami Zayn in the ring. Zayn interrupts Gunther's exit and says he's never seen Gunther back down from a fight so why back down from this one?
