he's right because that last statement makes you a liar, a hypocrite and a conceded scumbag, congratulations!
09:59
You can also add that to your résumé. You don't listen to these people tonight, I realize that Montreal is a very honest city.
10:15
For years WWE has referred to this building as bizzaro world.
10:20
Quite frankly, you folks are just honest, you tell us how you feel whether it is something that we wanna hear or not.
10:30
Tonight I'm gonna take a lesson from Montreal and actually hit you in the face with a dose of truth, whether you want to hear it or not.
10:41
For 300 days you have been WWE Champion, for 300 days that championship has been irrelevant.
10:50
Month after month you watched main event by main event pass you by and your excuse that there's some sort of weird political conspiracy against you,
11:01
but the fact is there is no you.
11:08
You see, you have been here for many, many, many years and the night you made the most noise was ironically the night your microphone was turned silent.
11:22
Ah, I remember those days.
11:25
Talk about change, passionate, convicting talk of change and then one triumphant night in Chicago when you were the victor and the universe finally said: 'We get change!'
11:42
And they were lied to, they were fooled into a false claim because change was not ice cream bars, change was not edgy television.
11:53
Change wasn't even new talent, all you meant by 'We want change' was 'Make CM Punk a star'.
12:00
You don't even know who CM Punk is.
12:06
I remember in those rants that you once said that I'd become what I despise, in reference to success.
12:14
No, I went from a underdog to an odds-on favorite, but I did it as me.
12:25
Through all of this, through all of this, the wins, the losses, the championships, the year when I didn't win the big one at WrestleMania,
12:33
the embarrassment, the humiliate that I've had to stand on my own two feet and do it as me.
12:45
And there is you. You have changed your ideology numerous times, you stabbed your friends in the back, you borrow colors from Hall of Famers,
12:55
you steal the elbow of the late Randy Savage.
13:01
All because you have yet to find you.
13:09
I'm not saying you are not tough. I've been in the ring with you. And I'm not saying you are not accomplished,
13:14
but your latest phase of development revolves around this.
13:19
You think because you have this you are justified of respect. No, the reason you have that and have kept it is by any means necessary
13:27
and that does not define a champion in my eyes.
13:31
So at Night of Champions you are going to have to search for a new identity.
13:38
You been really, really loud these past weeks because you finally realized that at Night of Champions you are in serious jeopardy of losing this.
13:55
I don't wanna do this but the city of Montreal is kinda owing me a favor so I wanna pay one back to you.
14:02
I'm a little rusty... ...
14:31
which means, which means...
14:33
Which means that you have lowered yourself. You have lowered yourself to their level.
14:39
To speak their language, to speak the language of the locals. You have lowered yourself.
14:49
Enough! Enough! Listen up, Jack, I don't lower myself to them because they are the reason we are here!
14:57
You are an ignorant son of a b*tch!
14:59
You need a little bit of respect!
15:04
So, in English, what I said was you say you're gonna win at Night of Champions
Ladies and gentlemen we are back on Monday Night Raw again
00:04
I want to preface this by saying that this is not part of tonight's entertainment, this is a real-life situation.
00:10
My broadcast colleague, Jerry 'The King' Lawler, earlier on tonight collapsed mid-match while on commentary.
00:18
He fell out of his chair to the floor below.
00:22
Doctors were here immediately.
00:24
Emergency personnel stretchered him out of the arena to the back where he received CPR.
00:29
We were told when he left the building to a medical center he was breathing on his own. He was of course receiving oxygen.
00:37
We now have an update that -- we pray to God, it is a bit more encouraging -- we're being told that Jerry is more responsive as we speak.
00:48
He is reacting to lights, how the doctors put the lights in your eyes, reacting to the lights in his eyes.
00:56
He is in isolated ER, the isolated portion of the emergency room as we speak.
01:02
He is awaiting a CAT scan. We are told that in typical Jerry Lawler fashion, he is fighting hard.
01:10
Again, King, pull through this. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and
01:18
Come on King, get through this!
--:--
I wanna welcome to the ring, the man that's gonna face CM Punk this Sunday
01:01
at Night of Champions for the WWE Championship, John Cena!
02:16
Bret, first things first, thank you very much for the opportunity for the interview.
02:23
Now John, I wanna ask you,
02:31
I see this whole thing happening, this whole feud you got with CM Punk and I gotta be honest,
02:37
it reminds me a lot of the same problems I had with Shawn Michaels.
02:43
Once upon a time Shawn Michaels and I, we were mutual friends,
02:49
we had this mutual respect for one another and by the end of it, years later, we had this feud, this rivalry,
02:57
this thing about winning the championship, you know, it almost destroyed our lives.
03:02
So when I look at you, I just wanna ask you,
03:07
when I look at you, I see a lot of myself and at the same time, when I look at CM Punk,
03:14
I have to admit, I see a lot of the old Shawn Michaels. What do you think about that?
03:21
Bret, first of all, thank you very much for even mentioning me
03:33
in the same sentence as Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. I agree with these people, I still have plenty of work to do to earn that accolade.
03:41
CM Punk also has some work to do, but immediately
03:47
the differences between HBK and CM Punk are obvious. ["You can't wrestle"]
04:09
The thing that I love most about Montreal is they recognize a Hall of Famer when they see one.
04:14
I could never lace your boots and that's the fact
04:21
but as far as you comparing Punk to Shawn Michaels, Shawn Michaels never portrayed something that he wasn't.
04:27
You see, when HBK was a jerk, and that was often, he owned up to it. Punk is a guy who says he's a man of the people,
04:35
says he's the voice of the voiceless, but all he's been lately is an insecure dude that constantly has to tell you how good that he is.
04:45
You see, Shawn Michaels earned respect because he stood for something and here tonight these people adore you because they know that you stand for something.
05:04
Quite frankly, CM Punk right now is just a desperate, delusional young man
05:10
who thinks lettering in gold by any means necessary equals respect.
05:19
Let me ask you this, John Cena: What are you gonna do to finally shut this phony little punk up?
05:29
Phony? Phony?
05:41
I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over the people, did you call me a phony?
05:49
Phony little punk.
05:54
Let me handle this one. Yes, he called you a phony, does that irritate you?
06:01
Does that make you wanna come down here and maybe do something about it? If that's the case,
06:06
I'm calling you a phony, too.
06:13
Two things happen at this point, you either stay up there or you come in here,
06:18
there is 40 feet of distance and three ropes between you and the worst decision of your life.
06:32
Well, if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is.
06:36
It's quite ironic the biggest phony in World Wrestling Entertainment history decides to point his finger and casts judgment on its champion.
06:49
Well, John-Boy, I don't need your judgment and I don't need your permission.
06:56
I do what I want, I do what I decide and right now I decided to come out here and defend my good name in the face of such rampant, ridiculous disrespect.
07:19
It almost breaks my heart to see the two of you standing in the ring together. It makes me realize:
07:26
'Wow, the Hitman and John Cena are so much alike' and trust me, that's not a compliment.
07:35
You two can sit here, pat each other on the back,
07:40
and have a little power hour and talk about how great the both of you were at being the top guy and completely neglect to mention the fact that you were both unceremoniously surpassed by somebody far superior than yourselves.
07:59
John, in your instance, I, of course, am speaking of me, and Hitman in your case, obviously, I'm talking about Shawn Michaels.
08:13
And by the way, you can't draw a line of comparison between CM Punk and Shawn Michaels, not the old Shawn, not the new Shawn because I am better than Shawn Michaels.
08:29
Oh hey, hey, hey. Bret, Hitman, remember that hillbilly you made pass out to your little Sharpshooter at WrestleMania 13?
08:42
Stone Cold Steve Austin?
08:47
I'm better than him, too.
08:56
And I'm better than the the Rock. And we all said, we all knew and we all saw
09:05
what I did to him in one night when he showed me one iota of disrespect. John-Boy I did in one night what you couldn't do in an entire calendar year.
09:18
I am the best WRESTLER, I am the best TALKER, I am the best TECHNICIAN,
09:27
I am the best BRAWLER and I don't say these things from a place of insecurity and I apologize for your lack of self-confidence but I say it because I AM IT!
But now that it's happened the only thing to do is to do it right.
01:01
That is the obligation to those who believe in me.
01:12
We all take defeats in life.
01:17
Those are famous words from the great Muhammed Ali.
01:25
Now tonight you guys have seen various clips of various things that I've said on this road to WrestleMania. And I'll be quite honest:
01:32
I've talked. I've talked a lot.
01:38
I've talked so much that anybody else in my shoes right now would be making excuses, backtracking, saying that it wasn't their fault.
01:47
That is not me. That will never be me. I meant every single thing that I said.
02:02
I meant it then, I mean it now. There is not one second in the year long built up to WrestleMania, that I ever thought that I was going to lose.
02:17
Because if you think like that, then, my friend, you have already lost.
02:26
But no one goes undefeated in life. And a true champion retains the will to win even through their most disappointing loss.
02:42
Now with that being said, there was a lot speculation on how I would react to all of this.
02:57
Would I be a person to come out here and make excuses?
03:01
Would I be a person to come out here and lash out on my opponents?
03:27
Would this finally be the day that I finally lash out at the WWE Universe?
03:51
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, that will not happen.
04:04
I am a man. I was beaten.
04:09
So as a man I will own up and admit defeat. Last night at WrestleMania I lost to The Rock.
04:32
There will be some critics that make last nights moment the most important of my career, but I asure you it will not be my last.
04:45
To all of those who have supported me through all this, from members of the WWE Universe
04:56
to some of my close friends to my family — I even see 'em out in the audience. And I will point them out right now. It's Machine Gun Kelly.
05:08
Your feelings aside, that was a wonderful performance and a damn fine speech. If I have led you or anyone else down tonight, I truely apologize.
05:18
The only thing I can do to make amends, is wipe the slate clean, work my ass off and try to be the best I can be.
05:32
But now to address the rumor mill, the gossip column, that I am actually here to call out The Rock.
05:42
I am not here to call out The Rock.
05:46
Because when you call someone out you wanna fight. The Rock and I have been calling each other out for a year and we settled it last night. ["We want Lesnar"]
06:21
But always interesting crowd at Monday Night Raw.
06:28
I actually want The Rock.
06:32
I would like to invite The Rock to come back down to the ring.
06:42
Not to talk trash, not to fight. Because respect is a word that I hold close and Dwayne Johnson after all that he's been through with me is a man who has earned my respect.
06:58
I want you to know, I want the world to know, more importantly I want The Rock to know that I consider him a champion.
07:09
I want The Rock to know that I consider him an inspiration.
07:14
I want The Rock to know that after last night I truly can consider him the greatest WWE Superstar in this industry.
07:38
So in that vein, I know you're all having fun tonight, I say we have one more moment of celebration for Miami, Florida's own, Dwayne Johnson, right in the middle of this ring.
07:58
Dwayne, on a personal note, and I know you're watching, this past year has been exhausting.
08:05
We let it all out on the line physically, and often times way over the line verbally. ["We want Lesnar"]
08:34
I understand the excitement in the air, but I put my heart and soul into last night.
08:47
And to be quite honest I came up short. The Rock was the better man. ["YES! YES! YES!"]
08:57
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! Daniel Bryan, you owe me one.
09:14
I personally respect Dwayne Johnson... ["Let's go, Bryan!"]
09:26
This is why I love Raw.
09:36
All kidding aside, I just want one second to publicly acknowledge that The Rock was the better man at WrestleMania and I would really like to congratulate him on his victory
WWE RAW 11/23/2009: John Cena & Sheamus WWE Contract Signing
Subtitles
00:29
Alright. First of all, let me say this.
00:35
It's really been my pleasure to come back to RAW here in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Thank you!
00:41
Thank you, Hershey!
00:44
Appreciate it! Now, as we talked about earlier,
00:50
the winner of the Battle Royal
00:53
the winner of the battle royal will get a world championship match.
00:59
Sheamus is the winner of the Battle Royal.
01:05
Now.
01:09
This man is not only undefeated, he's put people out of wrestling
01:15
and I think it's time now to sign the contract.
01:20
John Cena. Your presence is demanded down here in the ring.
02:12
Ladies and gentlemen The World Champion!
02:24
Well, the Battle Royal was exciting and we got a winner, Mr. Cena.
02:29
You now will sign the contract to defend the title against Sheamus.
02:35
His first time ever getting a World Championship match.
02:51
I am the Number One Contender. I demand that you stand up and face me.
03:09
I'm the Number One Contender.
03:13
How many times have I heard that before?
03:18
Usually the guy saying is a future Hall Of Famer like HBK.
03:21
Or Randy Orton. Or Triple H.
03:29
And now standing before me is Sheamus, demanding that I take him seriously.
03:39
Why is that, Sheamus, because you, you crippled an harmless announcer?
03:46
Or is it because you retired a guy that's half your size? What's next? You gonna beat up Michael Cole?
03:53
Maybe have some sort of match with one of the cameramen?
04:05
For the past eight years of my life I have hung in here with the best in the land
04:10
and I am proud to stand before you tonight a champion.
04:22
Not because I got lucky,
04:25
not because like some punk I like to prey on the weak.
04:28
I stand before you a champion because I never have given up.
04:32
I stand before you a champion because I have earned it.
04:34
I stand before you a champion because everyone in this arena,
04:37
because everyone watching at home, whether they like me or they don't like me,
04:42
know that THIS IS MY LIFE! THIS IS MY PASSION! THIS IS ALL I GOT!
04:52
YOU WANT SERIOUS? YOU GOT SERIOUS!
04:56
I have performed the impossible, I have achieved the improbable!
05:04
I have gone toe to toe with the meanest,
05:08
the baddest and the toughest, and every single one has been compromised.
05:31
Take a good look at that!
05:33
Because in a few seconds you're gonna sign that paper and I want you to know what that means.
05:40
I'm not an announcer.
05:43
You will not put me in a retirement home.
05:48
When you sign that paper you're going to war with me.
05:58
You better be ready to make a statement
06:08
Let me tell you something, Cena.
06:11
I retire people because I can.
06:16
I beat up Hall Of Famers because I can.
06:21
But that is nothing compared to what I'm gonna do to you!
06:30
Alright.
06:55
Sign it.
07:04
Sheamus has signed.
07:13
Wooh. I have it right here.
07:19
The official signature. Three weeks today on TLC,
07:23
Sheamus and John Cena for the Heavyweight Championship.
07:31
But you know, you know what?
07:37
I think there is a conspiracy in the World Wrestling Entertainment.
07:43
I think there is a conspiracy, Cena, to keep YOU champion.
07:49
You got the look, you got what it takes,
07:51
you do commercials, you do movies. You're the perfect lookin' little champion that they want.
08:00
You know, there was a time I didn't get a title shot because I didn't go with the flow.
08:07
Because I was a rebel, a revolutionary.
08:10
They don't want that as a champion, they want somebody like YOU,
08:15
that goes along to get along.
08:23
I never got a shot at the title.
08:50
Look at the champion!
09:25
And guess what: This match will be a table match. It will be a table match for the title.
GLOSSARY
demanded: exigida; harmless: inofensivo; crippled: A person or animal that is partially disabled or unable; prey: aprovechar; toe to toe: Conflict between two or more individuals; meanest: mas malo; regret: arrepentimiento;
Somehow the torch was passed from Stone Cold Steve Austin to YOU...
04:42
when it should have been ME.
04:58
I SHOULD BE THE NAME AND FACE OF THE WWE! I'M THE BIGGEST STAR IN THIS COMPANY!
05:11
So, I did what I did last week for two... ['Cena']
05:16
So, I did what I did last week for two reasons.
05:31
One is to beat the HELL out of you at WrestleMania and PROVE TO ALL THESE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD that I am that much better than YOU.
05:42
The second reason—it is plain and simple: I JUST CAN'T STAND YOU!''
05:47
''That's what this is about? That's all that this is about?
05:58
Some... some fictional torch that very, very few people talk about and nobody's actually even seen? You gotta focus up because I want to be WWE Champion.
06:07
I will take that title from you at WrestleMania.
06:10
I will tell you something very real. I want you to listen.
06:17
Things did work out different for both of us, you wanna know why? I work my butt off for this company.
06:20
I'm the first one to show up, I'm the last one to leave. You...
06:25
you're so cool you can't even show up on time.
06:36
Every single person in the WWE Universe knows I have given my freakin' life for this business...
06:43
and you stand up there expecting the business to be given to you.
06:48
Dave, you're all about yourself.
06:50
You need to look in the mirror.
07:01
You're selfish, you always have been, you always will be—that's real talk.''
07:06
''You know, I have to say that I actually agree with you.
07:12
I don't care about them. I am here to make MONEY.
07:17
I am here to win TITLES. I do not care about these people.
07:25
I don't care if they cheer me, I don't care if they boo me.
07:31
I am not here for them.
07:37
So, you go ahead! You keep on kissin' babies and huggin' fat girls...
07:49
and I'm gonna be in a gym somewhere, training and thinking about beating the hell out of you at WrestleMania.
08:00
I mean, it's a fact that every time you and I are in the ring together, bad things happen...
08:12
to you! I mean, it wasn't too long ago that I broke your neck.''
08:13
''You wanna know what I think?''
08:21
''I DON'T WANNA KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK! What you think is irrelevant.
08:27
So, you can go ahead and you can say anything you want, you can get all these people excited.
08:34
I mean, that's what you do. All you do is bark, bark, bark—that's what you do. THAT'S NOT WHAT I DO.
08:41
You know first hand what I do, what I'm good at.
08:46
See, you know what?
08:53
Go ahead, let's hear one of your fancy catchphrases. Say something inspiring, John!
09:14
We wanna hear it. The whole WWE Universe wants to hear what John Cena has to say.
--:--
You can't beat me, John, and deep down you know it.''
You know, there are a few people who have told me that at the Elimination Chamber Dave Batista stole the WWE Championship from me.
07:41
Even right there: 'Cena was screwed worse than Bret Hart'—that's not the way it happened, that's not the way it happened. I've had some time to think about it.
07:51
It was about business. Dave Batista was smart enough to align himself with Vince McMahon—they had an agreement.
07:58
Batista cashed in on that agreement and became champion.
08:01
Business—that's that.
08:05
It ain't the first time it's happened to me and—quite frankly—it won't be the last.
08:11
Next night on RAW, things became real personal.
08:16
See, Dave Batista ambushed me and then continued to punish me until I couldn't even move; and I don't get it. I don't get why.
08:26
I know everybody wants to be champion. Dave Batista is champion, but—we've both been in the WWE a long time.
08:35
I've never had a problem with Dave, but, as a matter of fact, there were times where I considered him a friend. It's just now...
08:45
now he's got a problem with me.
09:02
You see, all you guys are like me. You see the silver lining in everything and my silver lining is I'm going to WrestleMania.
09:13
I have a main event match for the WWE Championship against Batista.
09:22
Guys, WrestleMania is four weeks away...
09:27
and after what happened last week on RAW I believe I need to pay Mr. Batista back.
That's why I love this city. No matter what you think, you gonna get loud and you gonna get rowdy.
02:15
Ladies and Gentlemen, I am here tonight to answer a question that's been on everyone's mind.
02:28
How could this be possible?
02:33
In October 2007 I sufferd an injury to my pectoralis muscle, which required surgery. ["Cena sucks" Chants]
02:53
I ain't even gonna lie, guys, that's music to my ears right about now.
03:01
The doctors said I'll be out for twelve month, that is one year, which means...
03:10
which means that for the first time in my career
03:15
I would have to watch from the bench the greatest spectacel in Sport Entertainment history, and that is WrestleMania.
03:28
Now in my absence a new champion was crowned, new contenders were put in place and for the WWE life goes on.
03:41
But in the hospital bed my life was crumbling.
03:46
And with each day my WrestleMania dreams faded further and further away.
03:54
So in the last second of the final hour I made a choice. I made a gamble, I let it all ride! Yes, I risked my career! Yes, I risked my health! Why? For a chance!
04:07
Just for one damn chance! To maybe, maybe,
04:18
maybe get an opportunity to once again go to WrestleMania.
04:33
Maybe it was luck, maybe it was skill, maybe it was both,
04:43
but Ladies and Gentlemen, the impossible has happened!
04:49
I am back!
04:56
I am the winner of the 21st Royal Rumble and - damn it - I'm going to WrestleMania!
05:26
That is, unless of course you folks would like to have WrestleMania right here tonight.
05:40
There's a man back there that's got something that I want.
05:46
And I have officially won the right to challenge him for that championship!
05:58
Philadelphia has always been full of surprises, why don't we him one more? Tonight!
06:08
John Cena versus Randy Orton for the WWE Championship!
06:22
Champ, you can hear the noise! They want to see the match! What's it gonna be? It's up to you! Your want this to happen or not?
07:16
John Cena, I got an answer for you, but I don't think it's an answer that you wanna hear.
07:25
You see, I've been issued challenges, all types of challenges.
07:31
Triple H wanted to win three times in one night, Shawn Michaels wanted revenge, Chris Jericho wanted to save us, Jeff Hardy...
07:52
last night Jeff Hardy just wanted to break through, but the same thing has happened to every challenge in the end.
08:01
I have beat them.
08:14
So, John Cena...
08:16
Yes, Randy, yes. Yes, you beat them. One way or another, you've beat them. The great one man dynasty has beat them all.
08:24
And in the process you have done something, that no one else has been able to do.
08:30
You and you alone took me out of commission.
08:39
That's right, you put me on the shelf. Why? Because you're smart.
08:45
Because you're a smart champion, Randy. You saw opportunity to make a good situation better for yourself and you took it.
08:54
Which is why you gonna take this match tonight, Randy.
09:06
You're gonna take this match because you look right here at this scar and think to yourself 'Ain't no way in four month that this thing is gonna heal'.
09:16
You're thinking right now, that somehow Randy Orton has an advantage.
09:20
You are one of the smartest persons to ever hold the WWE Championship, Randy.
09:26
And even though you do not wanna face me because you have never beaten me,
09:40
you know in your heart you need every advantage you can get!
09:44
And right now you know that you got one. You know the cards are in your favour. What are you gonna do? Give me another eight weeks to WrestleMania, so I can get more healthy, so I can heal up, so I can be at the top of my game, and in front of the biggest audience in the world whip your *ss all the way to Disneyland?
10:09
Would you like to do that, Randy?
10:25
Here's the thing, John Cena,
10:30
ever since I've put you on the shelf I have become a very, very big deal!
10:45
A bigger deal than you have ever been.
10:53
Which is why I will never defend this championship title unless these people open their wallets and pay to see it.
11:09
Which means, John Cena, that I will not be facing you tonight.
11:27
But since you can't wait till WrestleMania, and since I think you're a hot head who's not fully recovered from your injury,
11:37
you're on! At the next pay-per-view No Way Out!
11:45
Unless... unless, John Cena, you wanna wait till WrestleMania.
11:58
No you dumb*ss, I don't wanna wait till WrestleMania! No Way Out, you and me for the WWE Championship! It's on!
12:07
But... but that still leaves tonight, doesn't it?
12:17
I don't forget, Randy. I don't forget all the pain, I don't forget all the suffering, I don't forget that you took this from me. I don't forget.
12:31
I don't forget that it is your fault that I can't stand here and listen to section 3-20 tell me I suck.
12:42
I don't forget that it's your fault that you have taken the one true thing that I hold dearest to me and I have the upmost respect for.
12:55
So as for tonight it's been four month since I've had a chance to be in this very ring. And I want some, so tonight I will get some!
GLOSSARY
crumbling: desmoronar; rowdy: ruidoso; faded : se desvanecieron; heal: sanar; It's up to you!: make a decision.
And I know why, I know why. Because tonight is epic!
03:02
Tonight is monumental. You know what. I feel so good about tonight, I'm gonna do something I should have done a long time ago.
03:17
I just hugged out with a 'We hate Cena'-Guy. We're good. Because tonight, for the first time in six months, WWE Monday Night RAW is Nexus-free!
03:39
Man, it makes me wanna dance. Whoo, whoo. Whoo, whoo.
03:48
Cole, I just dug it. We hit rock bottom. Hell, it makes me wanna sing.
04:01
The stars at night are big and bright. ['Clap clap clapclap. Deep in the heart of Texas'] You know what. I am so happy to be here, I got a treat for you guys. Normally we don't do this.
04:18
But I've commandeered some exclusive footage from last nights PPV of 'Tables, Ladders & Chairs'.
04:28
It is the footage describing the demise of Wade Barrett and I conveniently have that footage cued on the giant screen right now.
04:52
But wait folks, there's more. If you continue to watch RAW you will see the same footage from... another camera angle.
05:10
That's not all, folks. If you continue to act now and be a member of the WWE Universe you will see the same footage from...
05:17
another camera angle.
05:30
And just when you thought I was done, we will give you the same footage, but this time in slow-motion.
06:02
You guys got to see the demise of Wade Barrett four different times tonight. I feel so good when I get a great bargain. Especially this close to the holidays. On those half-to-half items like the Sham-Wow, the Snuggie and Wade Barrett being crushed by 23 chairs.
06:23
Six months ago I promised you guys that I would get to each and every member of The Nexus. And it took me some time, but last night at TLC I got to each and every member of The Nexus.
06:40
That means the winds have finally changed for Wade Barrett and his group of turd-burglars and now I can focus on the more important things like winning the Royal Rumble and going on to WrestleMania!
06:54
EXCUSE ME! Excuse me!
07:00
Moses Malone!
07:06
Pardon the interruption, John. I SAID EXCUSE ME!
07:18
Pardon the interruption, John, but you were not the only one who won a match last night.
07:31
I'm sorry, there's so much hatred in the air, I can't even hear what you're saying.
07:44
You were not the only one that won a match last night. ['Buuuuh'] EXCUSE ME['Buuuuh']
08:03
I can't hear you.
08:12
You were not the only one� ['Buuuuh']
08:22
Alright, alright, alright. What?
08:26
You were not the only one� ['Buuuuh']
08:32
Ha, it's a running gag.
08:38
John, you were not the only one� ['Buuuuh'] ['You suck']
09:01
Okay, the state of Texas just told you how they feel. Explain yourself, what's going on? Give her the floor, give her the floor. It's live television.
09:10
John, you were not the only one� ['Buuuuh']
09:15
Well, we just made the All-Time-RAW-Highlights. This is gonna go on for what? 30, 40 minutes? Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead. Guys, guys. Please. Don't do that, don't do that again. No, please. Silence.
09:32
You were not ['Buuuuh'] the only one that won a match at the TLC PPV. ['You suck']
10:02
They're a livelybunch here in Austin, I tell ya.
10:12
Despite competing in a Triple Threat match, ['Buuuuh'] Dolph Ziggler is still the Intercontinental Champion! Now since you had the opportunity ['Buuuuh'] to show footage, I have my own footage to show�
10:33
Okay, okay. Alright, alright, alright. We've made some ground. Apparently after TLC last night Dolph Ziggler is still the Intercontinental Champion. And the wonderful and beloved Vickie Guerrero has brought out a clip to show us. Roll the clip.
10:53
There are some moves that our Superstars do that are truly beyond words. The only reaction is holy... you know what.
11:03
Jerry, that's the same reaction I had when Michael Cole cost you your WWE Championship!
11:11
You know, Vickie, that's probably the reaction Dolph Ziggler has every time you model some new lingerie for him.
11:17
Excuse me?
11:19
Look, Jerry, for your information, I have lost a considerable amount of weight.
11:23
You've lost weight? Look around, I think you'll find it.
11:33
The King, Ladies and Gentlemen. Well played, Sir.
11:41
Jerry, I came for an apology. ['Buuuuh'] And if you don't give me my apology, my boyfriend Dolph Ziggler is going to beat you up!
11:53
She's right. I'm gonna beat you up!
11:54
And you are going to say that you're sorry.
11:56
Hey, King. I got this. She says that you owe her an apology. And if we don't have one here now that Dolph Ziggler is gonna try to beat you up.
12:04
He will beat him.
12:08
Vickie, Vickie. Was it because the remark about your weight? I mean, I can't help it if you're the only diva here in the WWE whose bathtub has stretch marks.
12:20
King, King. Wait, wait. King, King. I got one, I got one. Vickie is so fat that she wakes up in sections.
12:31
Hey, John. John, John. Did you know that when God said 'Let there be light', he had to ask Vickie to step out of the way first?
12:41
Wait, wait, wait. I got one, I got one.
12:45
STOP IT!
12:45
Vickie is so fat that her baby pictures were taken via satellite.
12:50
STOP IT! STOP IT, STOP IT! STOP IT! ['Buuuuh']
13:00
Vickie Guerrero is a saint! She is beautiful, inside and out. She's the most respected diva in the entire WWE. ['Buuuuh'] You all know that. She's beautiful, she's�
13:09
Dolph! Dolph, Dolph. Enough. How can you be out here talking like that? I was talking to you quite a while ago and you called Vickie a double-bagger. That means you gotta put a bag over your head in case the one of hers breaks. And how dare you, how dare you. First time I met you a long time ago, you were afraid of the dark. Then you saw Vickie naked, you're afraid of the light.
14:00
And I quote.
14:09
Since Vickie Guerrero is threatening that her boyfriend Dolph Ziggler will beat people up, well let's try it in a match tonight.
14:21
Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero vs John Cena and Sadie.
Those of you who actually think I will join the CM Punk Kiss-My-Ass-Club,
02:40
I hope you're not gonna be disappointed, that's defintely not gonna happen.
02:47
If imagine myself on my hands and knees and someone drops their trousers and shows me the big moon, and... I could just never ever do anythig like that.
03:04
But the primary aspect of this whole thing is rather something that there was supposed to be some sort of public negotiation.
03:14
Well if John Cena last week publicly stewing out of the mouth or if CM Punk wanna have a public negotiation...
03:23
contract should not be negotiated, with all due respect, in public.
03:33
But nonetheless, that's what CM Pbunk... CM Punk - I can't even pronounce his name.
03:41
He is a punk, but nonetheless, come out, CM Punk!
03:46
I wonder what CM stands for... they got the punk part, right?
03:52
Come on, let's get this over with. I've got a plane to catch.
05:06
I think you'll find everything in this contract Punk, your attorneys... this is a sky low low seat here.
05:19
You'll find everything here in order, your attorneys have been through it numerous times, including that little provision that you want your own collector's cup.
05:29
Nonetheless, sign it.
05:31
Look at you! Ladies and gentlemen, the chairman of the board, Vincent Kennedy McMahon.
05:36
Yeah, let's hear it for Vince!
05:40
What a maneuver!
05:47
Look at you, you're really gonna go through it, aren't you? For somebody who's always been so pro-John Cena I figured you come out wearing one of his ridiculous red t-shirts and had the arm bands on,
06:01
but looking at you now, I can tell you have zero faith in John Cena come this sunday, which I clearly don't blame you...
06:13
My faith or lack of faith in John Cena has nothing to do with this.
06:19
I simply want you to sign the contract for the right reasons. First of all to make you a rich man, which you already are, and secondly, I really couldn't live with myself if, in fact, somehow, on the last day of your existitng contract...
06:35
somehow you're able to win the championship from John Cena and walk out of Chicago with my title. I could not live with myself.
06:43
That's why we have the contract. That's why we have all these provisions in here, just like you asked for, right? I mean, is this right, Phil?
06:54
I can call you Phil, right? I mean, come on, hey... hey, come on, you've went open this sucker up, let's open it up, okay?
07:04
By all means. You wanna have fun? Let's have fun...
07:07
Hey come on, I've got everything in here you wanted...
07:10
...'cause my lawyers looked over your contract, Vince and frankly it just wasn't up to par, so I had them draw up a new one I have it right here.
07:25
My signature is already on it. All you gotta do is sign it. I do think you should know about a couple of new perks I've added to it.
07:36
You say you don't think contractual things shouldn't happen in public? Let's ask the WWE Universe. You people want this to go down in public?
07:52
You wanna hear a couple of new perks?
07:58
Don't push me!
08:01
He said 'Don't push me'. Did you already look at this? Because this is actually provision #1.
08:12
That I get to push you.
08:25
Vince, I'll push you all I want. Vince, I'll kick you in the nuts and you'll smile at me and like it, and show me some respect.
08:33
Because if you don't, I'll find the nearest paper shredder, I'll throw this contract in there and sunday I'll leave with your WWE championship.
08:48
Provision #1 for a superstar such as myself first class travel is not good enough. I want my own jet.
08:58
And I don't want YOUR jet. YOUR jet smells. Don't try to pawn that thing off me. I want my OWN jet.
06:06
#2: My face is on everything. I want my face on the Titantron, I want my face on these turnbuckles. I want cups, posters, spoons, knives, forks, shoes, socks...
09:19
I want everything with my face on it, number 1 thing being I want you to bring back the WWE ice cream bars.
09:51
Look at that, I just made you a million dollars at ice cream sales.
09:58
I want WWE films to immedialtely start production on 'CM Punk - the Movie'.
10:07
You can call it 'The Chaperone 2', except minorly funny and entertaining and successful.
10:19
And one last thing, the main event WrestleMania being John Cena against your buddy Dwayne -
10:29
that's The Rock for nobody who watches bad Disney movies -
10:36
you can still have that little fantasy, but the match I will compete in at WrestleMania will be the main event.
10:47
Those are just a few of many new perks that my lawyers have added to the contract.
10:52
The last thing that this contract states is that you apologize to me.
11:01
I know, Vince McMahon doesn't apologize, right? But you will apologize to me for suspending me last week. You will apologize...
11:10
hell I just gonna be honest. You're not just apologizing to me, you're apologizing to these people for being one of the biggest hypocrites I have ever seen in my entire life.
11:24
As far as your anti-bullying-campaign goes, you are one of the biggest bullies I have ever met in my entire life and you will apologize!
11:54
I have had friends, very talented friends work for this company and being unceremoniasly fired...
12:04
THEY DESERVED IT!
12:06
They deserved it? They deserved it?? Why? Because you don't know what makes a superstar in 2011, you don't know what these people want?
12:20
You wanna punish people for actually liking professional wrestling guys like Colt Cabana, guys like Luke Gallows? Huh?
12:28
You will apologize to me for them, because they can't be here right now, and they can't stand up to you, and they can't make their voice heard.
12:40
I am CM Punk, and I am the voice of the voiceless! And you will apologize and you will like it!
13:03
Hey look... look. Just Calm down! Let's just get this signed, and just calm down, okay?
13:14
Let us be gentlemen here, okay? Let's be gentlemen.
13:19
Gentlemen?
13:20
Gentlemen. Let's be business men and...
13:22
Should we be gentlemen or should we apologize?
13:36
Vince, sign the contract and apologize and spare your company any further embarassement.
13:53
Let's just get this over with, okay? And I mean...
13:59
Come on, I've just eaten a crab sandwich out of your...
14:12
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT YOU PEOPLE WANT!
14:15
THAT'S THE PROBLEM, VINCE! That's the problem. You don't give a damn. And my problem is I care too much. Am I a bad guy?
14:28
Absolutely! I don't wear a white hat, but I'm damn sure I'm in touch with these people and I think right now Boston wants hear to an apology.
14:52
I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry. I... I said I'm sorry.
15:04
What?
15:07
I said... I said I'm sorry.
15:10
What? If there was ever an appropriate time ... what?
15:23
I APOLOGIZE, YOU SON OF A BITCH!
15:32
What's better than winning the world title three times? Vince McMahon just apologized to CM Punk!
15:52
Yeah, pick it up and sign it before the stock drops some more. Come on!
17:20
Fine speech. Listen to 'em man, they love you. And they'll love you in your hometown of Chicago.
17:30
And that's the night you walk out on each and every one of them.
17:37
You wanna sign that? You wanna give in to a terrorist? I'm not gonna tell you what to do.
17:43
Last week I asked you for a match. A match that you earned, and a match that you wanna see, and I think that's we're standing up for.
17:52
But right now, you guys are like a bunch of kids, a bunch of spoiled brats. I want this, nah I want that. I have this, nah I have that. I like this, I like that.
18:05
Look at you, look at you. I get it. You feel mistreated in work and you hate this guy. I hate him, too. You know how many days I walk into a WWE locker room and I want to rip his face off with my bare hands,
18:17
and make it into a cute little floor mat, you know, something classy, you'd get a bad breath in beyond, and then go out and step in crap, and take my crappy shoes and wipe 'em on that floor mat that I just made out of his face,
18:28
and my dog come and pee on that floor mat that crap's just been wiped on and flush it down the toilet. That's how much I hate this guy.
18:35
But I show up for work every day. Because if we have an disagreement, when we don't see eye to eye, if I don't show up, sure, it short-sides him, but these people paid a lot of good money to be here tonight.
18:54
And they are the ones who really take it on the chin, these people right here, these people watching at home. You talk about hypocrites - Punk, you are the biggest hypocrite of them all.
19:07
You will ask these folks if they want an apology. You will ask these folks to be the voice of the voiceless... and then you will leave.
19:17
There is a man who stepped in this ring not too long ago and said 'Finally, he was home' and the he was never leaving again.
19:31
Easy, dragonbreath!
19:36
My God, what you've been eating, Big Foot's diaper? My point is: I know you're not that guy.
19:43
But here you are, making a ridiculous list of demands, demands that he cannot meet, because all you wanna do is take this and walk out.
19:54
Because you're strongest attitude is also your biggest flaw. You are CM Punk, you beat your own drum, and I admire that.
20:05
But in the path of doing things you wanna do, you've lost sight of everything.
20:10
Oh I'll stop you right there. I'm not gonna have you sit here and belittle me that I've lost sight? I've lost sight of things, John?
20:19
The reason I say I'm gonna take that walk out is because I don't fit a certain mold, because I am the underdog. And that's exactly what you've lost sight of. Earlier in this ring, you've mentioned great wrestlers like Eddie Guerrero and you said that they used to look at you and think that the kid couldn't hang. And now you stand here and look at me as the kid that can't hang.
20:42
John, I was hanging off of your gangster car at WrestleMania 22 as it rolled down to Chicago, Illinois, and I stood there in a suit,
20:53
looking as ridicilous as that man looks right now in a suit, holding a phony tommy gun, and I said to myself someday I'm not gonna be standing out there, watching you in the ring.
21:06
I was gonna be standing in the ring, watching you go down to CM Punk.
21:14
And now here we are in your hometown of Boston, and now next week, we'll be back in my hometown, Chicago, Illinois, and this... this is the part, where I talk them into the building. See, YOU are the one that's lost sight, and I apologize for raising my voice because I'm not that guy.
21:33
But when you stand here and tell me that I've lost sight, when you, the ten time champion who stand for hustle, loyalty and respect, who from Boston, Massachusetts lives and breathes this red colors,
21:47
the same colors as your beloved Red Sox, who also portrait themselves as the underdog.
21:55
I'm sure just like the Bruins portrait themselves as the underdog, just like the Patriots think they're the underdog.
22:04
Easy, buddy...
22:03
Hey, how about the Celtics? Are they the underdogs, too?
02:08
Here is what you've lost sight of, John, and I'm really happy that your father and your wife are sitting in the front row so they can hear it...
22:16
Easy... That's the last time I'm gonna tell you. Easy...
22:17
What you've lost sight of is what you are. And what you are, is what you hate.
22:23
You are the ten time WWE champion. You're the man.
22:27
Ladies and gentlemen, the champ is here. You, like the Red Sox, like Boston, are no longer the underdog.
22:35
You're a dynasty! You are what you hate! You have become the New York Yankees!
23:16
Cut it off. Turn the music off 'cause I have something to say, and I'm positive that everybody here wants to hear it and everybody sitting at home as their DVR'S fired up, because they wanna hear it.
23:31
I'm glad you just punched me in the face, John. I'm glad it went down this way, because it hit me like a bolt of lightning exactly why I no longer wanna be here, why I wanna leave.
23:44
It's because I'm tired of this. I'm tired of you.
23:51
I'm just tired. So ladies and gentlemen of the WWE Universe, Vince, John...
24:01
sunday night, say goodbye to the WWE title. Say goodbye to John Cena.
I would like to thank you and I would like to thank all of Smackdown
00:13
and I would like to thank all of the great Fans right here in Memphis, Tennesse,
00:20
for holding this debate.
00:23
Go Grizzlies! And I would like to answer the question: What makes me deserve to be a champion more than my opponent, John Cena?
00:38
You see America needs heroes and I have filled that role.
00:44
I have vanquished all of my opponents and I have become stronger by doing it.
00:51
I am the ideal american success story, from a great family, independently wealthy, from a great spowl.
00:59
I have been the reason for all of you people to look up to Smackdown because of me.
01:05
And I understand there's a champion on the other show, that says that he is a ten time world champion.
01:16
What that means to me is he lost nine times!
01:22
I am the only champion in the history of professional wrestling that has never lost this championship!
01:32
I have held this Championship longer than anybody in over ten years,
01:40
including that same guy on the other show.
01:46
That, Teddy Long, is why I deserve and why I am what I say I am: A wrestling god!
02:00
John Cena, same question.
02:12
Before I can even answer that question, what makes me more qualify to be champ,
02:18
I gotta turn that back around you. I mean, because you, you're some sort of a wrestling god.
02:24
I mean, you've been champ for quite a long time. You're independently wealthy, a huge success story.
02:33
Why would someone as successful as you, drive to the ring in a broke down ass limousine?
02:46
Why? Why? I don't...
02:49
There's nothing wrong with that limousine! It's brand new...
02:51
Hey, man, hey. Don't sugarcoat it. Let's go take a look.
02:58
I mean, first thing's first homie.
03:04
Teddy, look what he did to my car!
03:07
You got a flat tire. You're the champ! How are you gonna ride out here in a limo with a flat tire, man?
03:17
That is vandalism! You should be thrown in jail! Teddy Long, do something about this, you're the general manager!
03:24
Hey! He's not touching you. He hasn't laid a hand on you.
03:28
I'm just...
03:33
I'm just stating the facts, playa. And the paintjob. Man, what's up with the paintjob?
03:43
Coming out in this busted ass limo with a flat tire and a scuffed-up paint. I can't even believe you didn't catch that.
03:50
There's nothing wrong with that paintjob, Cena.
03:52
Nooo, man. You ain't looking at it right.
04:03
You see when I look at it...
04:11
What is wrong with you?!
04:17
You're a... You're a punk criminal!
04:20
I see a limo that says 'JBL sucks'. JBL sucks? Dude! JBL is you.
04:30
You drove out here in a Limo that says 'JBL sucks'! What is wrong with you?!
04:37
That's a 200.000 dollar car!
04:40
You know...
04:50
You know, between that limo-fiasco and this hostile crowd here in Memphis,
05:01
if I was you I'd, well I'd just do something about that.
05:06
You better show me some respect, you...
05:09
You're gonna hit me?
05:08
JBL!
05:10
You're gonna hit me? You're gonna do something? Go on. Go on, throw a punch! Come on, throw a punch there big daddy, come on!
05:20
You can do something if you want to.
05:22
I'm ready for the next question.
05:24
Well, then let's move on. JBL,
05:32
how important is one's social and economic upbringing in being a champion?
05:43
Apparently it's real damn important! Look at what that criminal just did to my car.
05:48
You see, there's a reason that punk-criminals like him, the only way he makes it in a car, is if you drive me!
05:56
There's a reason that people like you are kept down by the rich, 'cause that's what's better for America!
06:03
You mock what you don't understand and flat honestly, you're jealous, because the only way you'll have money like me, is if you win the lottery or you turn to crime.
06:14
So I'll tell you what: at Wrestlemania I'm gonna turn to crime, too. I'm gonna rob you of your dreams. I'm gonna rob you of your hopes.
06:22
And I'm gonna rob you of your dignity, when I make you, you Cena, bow down and worship at the feet of a wrestling god!
06:32
John Cena, you're up, playa.
06:36
Sounds like somebody crapped in your Cheerios this morning, homie.
06:41
But you got a point. I mean uh, this whole economic thing...
06:49
maybe I, uh, maybe I just lost my head. I guess what you were trying to say is, I got no, I got no respect for the championship.
06:55
I got no...
06:56
You got no class!
06:57
I got no class. I mean, look at how I'm dressed. I guess...
07:'6
I mean, I mean, I think I'm doing alright, are we good or what?
07:12
Wait, wait, don't wet your panties in a bunch. There is some people who think that we should act a certain way, that we should dress a certain way. So,
07:20
I'm a man of peace. I mean, we can probably solve all of this by just wearing a suit and a tie, right?
07:29
You would look a lot better in a tie. Right now, you look like a piece of crap!
07:34
Well. Let me see if I look better in a tie. Let's just see if that works.
Oh no. I feel like a banker in this. This still sucks!
08:10
Oh, but, oh Dog! That was, that was yours and after the, after the car thing, uff. And the tie?
08:17
You're probably pretty mad right now, hu? You probably wanna do something, don't you? Maybe throw a punch?
08:25
Maybe hit me? If I hit you, than I can't go to WrestleMania, but uh, then again I'm not the one looking like a total jerk, so maybe... I mean maybe, maybe you wanna throw a punch.
08:47
No. No. I'm not playing your games.
08:51
You do not outthink the master. At WrestleMania you will have all you want, but until then, son, play your stupid games.
09:05
John Cena, the next question is for you. Now, I want to ask you this, playa: What do you need to do...
09:15
What do I need to do to get this punk bitch over here to swing at me?
09:24
Well, now, that's an important question and what I think we need to address:
09:31
What if, right here, right now, I proof the wrestling god, the champion of champions, the man of class, JBL, to be nothing but a liar?
09:45
I don't lie! I...
09:46
Hey, hey, hey. Have faith in your boy, I can pull it off. Now,
09:51
my senior Theodore Long, watch closely, 'cause I'm not going to touch you dog.
09:56
You better not touch me, you...
09:57
But I am gonna touch your ten gallon hat.
10:01
Oh no, this is nice, dude. Yo! This ain't exactly my style and nothing, but you can tell the craftsmanship, everything is there! Is this, is this Gucci?
10:15
It's a thousand dollar Stetson!
10:18
Okay, then, we know that this is probably a ten gallon hat, right?
10:26
I hate you. I hate you, you piece of...
10:28
Oh, I'll take that as a yes. Ten gallon hat, well let's do something. Let's see how many gallons this hat's gonna hold.
10:45
He's not touching you.
10:53
Dude that ain't even closer like one gallon. That means your ass is a liar.
10:58
Oh yeah, by the way I'm done with your hat, you can have it. Oh, oh, oh no!
11:11
Look at you, man! Looks like you had an accident all over youself.
11:17
They make diapers for that sort of stuff. I mean, you got problems they'll help you, oh! Oh, look at you.
11:22
I'm gonna kick your ass at WrestleMania! My...
11:25
You're gonna show me what you're gonna do at WrestleMania?
11:27
At Wrestlemania I'll...
11:28
Then show me what you're gonna do at WrestleMania! Come on! Right here! You throw a punch and I swear, I will knock the hell out of you!
11:56
You ain't gonna do nothin', are you?
12:01
Just like I thought. But I bet you stand there, thinkin' that you're uh,
12:07
clever for not playing my games. You look ridiculous.
12:13
And as clever as you think you are...
12:18
well, I think you're something else.
12:26
I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you.
12:38
You piece of garbage!
12:42
You know what? You know what? See, in the world that I come from, in the world that we come from,
12:54
there's people who talk about it
12:59
and then there's people who BE about it!
13:07
Wrestlemania 21?
13:14
Let me give you a little preview of what's gonna happen to you.
13:28
Ahaaa!
