"It kills you that you never made it to this stage, the WWE, as a competitor"

[Nachdem Mick Foley und CM Punk ein Tag Team Match gegen Dolph Ziggler und David Otunga gewonnen haben, kommt Raw Interims General Manager John Laurinaitas in die Halle.]

John Laurinaitis: Hold on. Hold on one minute please. Hold on a second. Mick Foley, I never gave you permission to put yourself in this match. You're not a legal participant in this match. So therefore, you have forced me to do my job and reverse the decision of this match. The winners of this match happen to be David Otunga, Mark Henry and Dolph Ziggler.

[CM Punk reißt John Laurinaitis das Mikrofon aus den Händen.]

CM Punk: What's the matter? You didn't like that, huh Mr. Laurinaitis? Do you find me to be disrespectful when I just grab things out of your hand, do you? Let me tell you what you are going to do about it: Absolutely nothing! Oh, you know what, Mick has nothing to do with what's going on right here. It's time to put our cards [John Laurinaitis will ihn unterbrechen] NO, SHUT YOUR MOUTH, you're gonna listen to me. You're gonna man up. You're gonna take your balls out of your purse right now, we're gonna lay our cards on the table.

You don't like me. But it has nothing to do with who I am. And if I can be your psychologist for a moment, it has everything to do with who you are not. See, the people have no idea who you are. That‘s because when you were a competitor in "Sports Entertainment" as you like to call it, you had the look. But oh boy, oh boy did you ever suck. And that must have been really, really difficult, Johnny. Your brother being one half of the legendary Road Warriors. And you never amounting to much more than "road kill". See, you were boring, you weren't charismatic, you were vanilla. That's right boring.

And it kills you. It kills you that you never made it to this stage, the WWE, as a competitor. So you traded in your lame ass tights, for your equally lame ass suit. You went from somebody who just sucked, to somebody who just sucked up. And now that you're a corporate yes man, you take your eyes, and you look at a guy like me and you can't stand the fact, that the last year of my career, I have achieved more than you have in your entire life. You... you know I don't even know why I'm screaming. You just don't have an original thought in your body. And I mean, you're gonna screw me at the Royal Rumble PPV?! Well better men have tried, and better men have failed. But you're gonna try to screw me based on one thing. And it is your jealousy of who I am and where I come from and the fact, [hebt seinen WWE Titel auf] the fact that I am the WWE Champion, I'M THE MAN!

And you can't stand it, so you're gonna screw me at the Royal Rumble. Let me tell you something, Johnny. It doesn't matter what you do to me in my championship match, because coming out of it, I'll still be better than you. And I'll have all these people doing something, that you wished your entire career, they did. I'll have them talking about you. Because you see, If you screw me, I'm not gonna hit you with the GTS, I'm not gonna put you to sleep, I'm not gonna lock you in the Anaconda Vice. But I'm gonna have these people talking about you for sure. Cause if you screw, they're gonna be talking about how Mr. John Laurinaits, Executive Vice President of Talent Relations and Interim Raw General Manager looked like he went through a meat grinder, because CM Punk just KICKED HIS PATHETIC ASS.

[CM Punk-Sprechchöre ertönen und er deutet einen Schlag gegen John Laurinaits an.]

CM Punk: You're pathetic!

[CM Punk nimmt sich seinen Gürtel und verlässt die Halle, während John Laurinaitis und Mick Foley im Ring bleiben.]

John Laurinaitis: My name is Mr. John Laurinaitis, I am the Executive Vice President of Talent Relations, and the Interim, soon-to-be Permanent General Manager of Monday Night Raw. I am not pathetic! And I will not be intimidated by CM Punk.

Mick Foley: Admit it, just admit it Johnny. Have the decency to admit that you intend to screw Punk at the Royal Rumble. You know you walk around here, you act like a pious, self-righteous sychophant. But fancy New York Times best-selling author speaks for saying you, John Laurinaitis, are a kiss-ass.

John Laurinaitis: Who the hell do you think you are, Foley? Who in the hell do you think you are talking to? You wanna know if I'm gonna screw CM Punk?

Mick Foley: I wanna know!

John Laurinaitis: You're damn right I will, okay. I do my job and I do it well. I am sick and tired of being disrespected, okay. I am sick and tired of being pushed around. And I am sick and tired of being bullied. Each and every week I put on the most entertaining show for the WWE Universe. And I'm not appreciated for it. I'm not gonna take it anymore. And I'm not gonna take it from you. I'm sick and tired.

[John Laurinaitis haut Mick Foley das Mikrofon gegen den Kopf, womit die Show Off-Air geht.]

Während Chris Jericho einfach den Ring verlässt und Daniel Bryan & Mark Henry sich aus der Halle prügeln, kommt Mick Foley als neuer Tag Team Partner von CM Punk zum Ring, um mit ihm das Match zu gewinnen.
