What better person to deal with the WWE Title picture than the man who started things rolling with his missed call of John Cena’s foot on the rope, the WWE COO Triple H. He says that there are some people who are upset with what happened last night.
Hunter says that he wants to apologize to the WWE Universe and to John Cena. Hunter says that he made a mistake. He says that he watched the footage and John Cena’s foot was on the bottom rope. Hunter says that he is going to tell Cena that he is sorry when he meets Cena face to face. Hunter says that they had a hell of a match and if he didn’t screw it up, he didn’t know who would win.

It was not his intention to cash in his money in the bank at SummerSlam. Destiny do whatever he wants. After what Kevin Nash did, he couldn’t resist. Some people just are born to be great. Alberto says that he is the greatest of the great. The Undisputed WWE Champion.
Alberto says that as their champion, he wants to represent everyone with respect, honesty, and passion. He just wants to be their champion. Alberto says that he will be in the lobby signing autographs for everyone. He will take pictures with everyone’s kids. That is the kind of champion he wants to be. A champion for his people. Tonight, for his first title defense, he is going to face the former WWE Champion Rey Mysterio. He says that we should cheer Rey because when he was told that his first title defense was going to be against Rey. Everyone loves Rey Mysterio. Alberto says that Rey is a Mexican icon, a gran luchador.
He says that he loves Rey Mysterio. He says that he loves Rey and he loves beating Rey Mysterio. He started his WWE career defeating Rey Mysterio. Every time he wakes up in the morning, he thinks what will he do today. He says that he feels like beating Rey Mysterio today. That is exactly what he is going to do tonight in San Diego.
