"If you were a real workhorse, they would have shot you dead after the first injury"

Seth Rollins: "St. Louis [Coward cheers.], Welcome to Monday Night Rollins! [Crowd sings his song.] That sounds like a pretty big pop to me! [see Note 1.] hmhmhm... Because I am a Visionary, I am a Revolutionary, I am Seth... ['Freakin' Rollins,' the crowd responds.]. Another big pop, how about that? It has been a hell of a week here in WWE and after last Friday in SmackDown, I certainly smell what's cooking-- [Crowd heavily boos, then 'Cody' chants begin.] I, I sense that you guys want Cody? [Crowd cheers.] Well, good news for you guys, I want Cody Rhodes as well, [Crowd mostly boos.] and after last Friday I got more questions than answers, so I ain't wasting no more time. Cody Rhodes, Come on down.

[To crowd's liking, Cody's music is hit as he walks into the ring, he is then greeted with 'Cody' chants.]

Cody Rhodes: "So, World Heavyweight Champion Seth 'Freakin' Rollins, Saint Louis [Cheers.], what do you we wanna talk about?"

[The crowd chants 'Rocky Sucks.']

Seth Rollins: "I gotta be honest with ya, I didn't think I was gonna hear that one! Hahahahahaha... It's been a hell of a week for you. [The crowd then chants 'We want Cody,' causing Cody to embrace the chant, while looking emotional. The crowd goes back to chanting 'Rocky Sucks.']

Look, I'm just gonna cut straight to the chase, man. I understand what you're going through. I've been there, I get it, but we need answers. Last week I said that this is the most prestigious Championship in this entire industry, I stand by those words. [Crowd boos.] I stand by those words, but if I'm being perfectly honest, I need this match as much as you do. [Boos.] Look man, I'm being real with you right now. I gotta know that I'm better than I was the last time we did this dance a couple years ago. I gotta know that I'm the best, and the only way that I can know if I'm the best is if I test myself against the best and Cody Rhodes... you are the best. [Crowd cheers.] So Let's cut the crap, let's get some answers. Are you gonna fight me at WrestleMania?

[Crowd vehemently boos. Meanwhile Drew McIntyre's song plays as he interrupts.]

Drew McIntyre: "I think I speak on behalf of everybody when I say, what the hell?! I laid you both up perfectly for WrestleMania and you're potentially gonna screw it all up.

Seth, you're the only other person that hates Punk as much as me; you know how bad he would be for this place... and I took him out! We were supposed to be in this ring, you and I tonight talking about our main event match for the world title at WrestleMania [Crowd mildly cheers.] Oh, you like that? [Bigger pop.] I even had a t-shirt commissioned for us... [Drew takes off his sweatshirt and shows off a t-shirt ridiculing CM Punk's WrestleMania plans, making the crowd laugh.] Your extra-small's in the back!

Why did you have to get inside his head? Why?--Cody, don't listen to him... You've got to finish... the... story. [The crowd cheers.] You've been talking about it for two years now, think about last year's WrestleMania, think about all the work you've done this year, on TV, off TV, the media events... you've earned this moment! [More cheers.] Don't let me down, don't let your family down, don't let all these people down and all the people across the world. I don't wanna go here, 'cause everybody else does, and I was close with the man, I was his Champion in Florida Championship Wrestling, but don't let your dad down."

Seth Rollins: "Hey, Drew, look you ain't gotta be a prick, alright? And look, what in the world makes you think if he doesn't accept my challenge for WrestleMania, it's gonna be you and me? 'Cause we've done this dance twice and if I remember correctly, you lost."

Drew McIntyre: "We both know there was outside reasons why I lost those matches, but is this a case of the pot calling the kettle black, didn't you lose to him three times? [Pointing at Cody.]

OK, I--I'm gonna say something nice. You know, I've heard what you said last Monday, I heard what Roman had to say; ignore him, if you're that insecure, I will tell you to your face, I'll look you in the eye. You have done an amazing job with that title. You have worked your butt off every single week [The crowd applauds.] to make that mean something, that is the true 'workhorse championship; right there. You did that. Ignore what he has to say, ignore what everyone else has to say. This is a case when you fight for this title. You know what happens in Roman's matches? No one wants to fight for it anymore because we the finish: his family is gonna interfere every single time... They did it to me, they did it to Cody, they've done it to multiple people. This is a case of 'may the best man win' ...except in my case of course when I was screwed a couple of times."

Cody Rhodes: "Okay--"

Drew McIntyre: "Cody, I'm not finished yet, please! [Crowd boos.] If you were a real workhorse, they would have shot you dead after the first injury, now about 17 injuries later, it's time for somebody to do the job, you've done an amazing amazing job taking the title this far... but it's time for Drew McIntyre to take it from here."

[McIntyre gives Seth a 'Glasgow Kiss' putting him down, Cody punches him in the face and forces him out of the ring. Drew has a smile on his face while they're staring each other down as Seth gets back up to his feet.]
