Your announcers are Michael Cole and Wade Barrett.
We take a look back at highlights from this weekend in Los Angeles.
John Cena's music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
John says you teach him something every time you open your mouths. What you taught him at Money in the Bank, Truth is a lie. You opened your mouth and wasted your energy for a side show comedian pretending to be him. You thought you did something good?
The crowd chants for Truth.
Cena asks if that accomplished anything? You are all spineless keyboard warriors. You are ignorant armchair activists. You do not have any real power to change anything. You don't like that? R Truth is a gimmick that you will spit out and in a year, you won't care anything about. R Truth will never use him for your pity parties again. This is his farewell tour, dammit. Cena says he has limited time. He said he had 36 dates at the start of the year. After Wrestlemania, we were down to 27. John runs off his appearances and he is down to 19 dates.
This is almost over. We are halfway done. If you want to accomplish something, don't waste your voice and send me the class clown. Use your voice to send him someone. Everyone you cheered for from R Truth to Cody Rhodes to Randy Orton, I have shut your mouth and beat your best.
CM Punk's music interrupts and he makes his way to the ring.
Punk asks John if he is comfortable. He tells John he wants him to be comfortable because he has a lot to get off his chest. You will listen to everything he has to say. It is ironic, you strapped up. The cowboy, the boy scout saying you are going to ruin wrestling and the establish that made you. CM Punk, the outcast is defending the establishment. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Punk says he is not defending the establishment. He is not here to defend TKO or the billionaires. He is here to defend the people. Are you mad that the establishment picked you, but they never picked you. In 2011, they picked him to be the voice of the voiceless.
You have faced the best because Cody is the best we have. You won because you took a short cut. Punk says the people are his boss. He says it is his job to give them what they want. If they want the Truth, they will get Ron Killings. We are all spokes on a wheel. It is time that John Cena taught John Cena he is just a spoke on the wheel. It starts with him taking the title off your shoulder. Remember when they locked up at Elimination Chamber. I felt it. You watched Seth Rollins stomp him and you did not hesitate to put him in the STF. The last thing he heard before he passed out was John saying 'I'm Sorry'. You knew then and know now that what you are doing is not right.
You know what you are doing is wrong. When I take that title off you, you will spend the rest of your dates apologizing for the man you have become. That title has corrupted you. He knows because that same belt made him a monster in 2012. When he came back, he had a list of goals. Holding that belt wasn't one of them because he was afraid of the man he would become. Everyone wants to be champion and few have accomplished it. He has to become a monster to stop you. To guys like you and Seth Rollins, that is a chip that means power and control. That is something that belongs to the people.
Punk says by his count, you have 18 dates left. What little respect he had for him, he will leave it up to John to pick when he takes the title off Cena. If you are any type of a man and more Boston Red Sox than New York Yankee, you will say that night is tonight.
Cena says John Cena . . . CM Punk . . . One final match. The Best in the World versus The Greatest of All Time for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Cena says let's do it . . . not tonight. Cena says a match like this, you will follow him to Saudi Arabia and we will do it at Night of Champions. Ball is in your court. If you want the title match, we do it at Night of Champions.
Punk tells Cena he is on.
Seth Rollins interrupts and he makes his way to the ring with his baggage, and the briefcase.
Chad asks for some respect. Some people went through hell this weekend. Their boy El Grande Americano went through hell at Money in the Bank. Chad went into hostile territory at Worlds Collide. Neither of them are in the King of the Ring Tournament.
Brutus tells Chad to sit back since he is injured. He offers to take Chad's place and he giggle/cackles.
Chad says he will beat AJ tonight like Grande beat AJ last week. You might be Phenomenal, but Chad says he is an Iron Man and you will find out why.
