WWE SMACKDOWN 20/05/11 PART 3/6

Posted by XSaint On 8:11 | No comments
0 9:55 When I first came to Smackdown, my goal was to... to write a new chapter in the Book of Ezekiel.
10:03 It was supposed to be an epic tale of total domination.
10:09 I decided... no, I promised myself that I was gonna make an impact. That's why I joined The Corre.
10:20 You know, the first when we came to Smackdown we took this show by force. We... we just took over.
10:29 But because of who? You know, the same night I've hoisted a 500 pound giant and slammed him.
10:42 It made me think. Do I need The Corre, or do they need me? That's why I left.
10:54 But they just wouldn't let me walk away.
11:02 So for the last... for the last two weeks I've taken a beating. I'm man enough to admid that I've taken a beating.
11:20 But they cannot break me. I'm not a man that could be broken.
11:30 They've unleashed... they've unleashed a force that cannot be stopped, that will not be stopped.
11:37 I will not rest, I will not sleep until they've all suffered.
11:46 Wade Barrett, you will be the first to suffer. It is written in the Book of Ezekiel that the reign of your championship will come to an end. Because I am the personification of domination.

GLOSSARY

tale - hoisted - slammed - unleashed
tale: historia; hoisted: alzado; slammed: estrellado; unleashed: liberado;

06:35 Last week I proved that there is only one dominant giant on Smackdown, and his name is not the Great Khali.
06:51 The fear that I instilled into the heart of Khali's pathetic, helpless brother Ranjin Singh is the mark of a true monster.
07:04 Khali has never been a monster.
07:10 I saw that look as I left him lying face down and helpless.
07:17 It was a look that required no translation. It was weakness.
07:26 The source of Khali's weakness is obvious. Khali has compassion, emotion, Khali actually cares!
07:44 He cares while I detest. At Summerslam I will put an end to the myth of the Great Khali once and for all.
08:07 Khali, I've never been afraid of you, but you'd better be afraid of me.

GLOSSARY

fear - instilled - helpless
fear: miedo; instilled: inspire; helpless: impotente;

01:05As you all know, the black cloud continues to loom over Jeff Hardy's head.
01:16And it will continue to do so until Jeff sucks it up,
01:20I came out here tonight to get some things off my chest.
01:36Some things that I tried to communicate with Jeff Hardy, but of course, as usual,
01:42he wouldn't listen.
01:46But tonight Jeff, I'm going to force you to listen.
01:56You've been through a lot this year, Jeff.
01:59A lot of ups, a lot of downs. A lot of highs, lows.
02:10You couldn't compete in WrestleMania last year because you were suspended.
02:15You were out having a little too much fun.
02:20Me, on the other hand?
02:23I couldn't compete in an actual match at WrestleMania because I was injured. I had a legitamite injury.
02:33But from day one of your suspension, no one cared about Matt!
02:37No one gave a damn about me or my injury.
02:47Everyone wanted to know about Jeff:
02:50Is Jeff getting the help he needs?
02:54Is Jeff gonna be returning to the ring? What is Jeff thinking?
03:05Jeff, you didn't have a care in the world at that time.
03:08You went about business as usual. You locked yourself in your studio and recorded songs,
03:15you painted pictures, you refused to be responsible for your own actions.
03:23And like always, everyone expected Matt Hardy to come in and pick up the pieces!
03:37And you did suffer a very unfortunate amount of accidents, Jeff.
03:45You were attacked in a stairwell, your car was run off the road,
03:52there was the accident with the pyro...
03:56I mean, who could have done this to you Jeff? Was it a group of people?
04:03Does someone hold a grudge against you? Or maybe it was just one person.
04:14But there is one day in particular that I remember very strongly, Jeff.
04:20That was shortly after you got suspended.
04:25You'd been out for several days, your music blasting, your dog barking,
04:30and you and Beth decided to leave your house.
04:37And while you were gone, you received a call from me.
04:44And I said: Jeff, Jeff, your house is on fire.
04:50Your house is on fire, man.
04:56And I couldn't go outside and watch it.
05:07I could only picture in my mind you losing everything you worked so hard for:
05:15'Matt, what about my dog? What about Jack, man? What about Jack? Is he okay?'
05:28Well, we all know what happened to poor little Jack.
05:36He didn't make it.
05:42And sometimes accidents turn into tragedies that are incredibly hard to believe.
06:12Jeff, do you remember this? Or what's actually left of it?
06:24I found this the day after everything you ever owned went down in flames.
06:30I found it. It was in a heap of ashes.
06:36And I've been holding on to this, Jeff, for a very long time.
06:44I decided I'd give it to you when the time was right, and well,
06:49the time is right now.
06:53So I want to give this to you as a token.
06:58As a token of my love. A token of my love for my brother, Jeff Hardy.
07:58This is so hard to believe.
08:03You're behind all this. The stairwell... the car crash..
08:11you tried to blow me up.
08:14I never thought my own flesh and blood could be capable of something so horrible.
08:21Don't bring up my house, man, come on. Don't bring up my dog, man.
08:26Don't bring up everything I love.
08:30You want to hurt me, don't you. You want to hurt me, don't you, Matt?
08:35You HATE me, Matt, don't you?
08:39You don't love me, you HATE me!
08:42But you know what, Matthew Moore Hardy?
08:45You hate yourself more than you could ever know.
08:50Because you're sick, you're twisted, you're demented...
09:00and so am I.
00:24 The first thing I would like to say is YES! YES! YES!
00:40 Now, I could talk about myself all night, but I'ma put AJ on the spot.
00:51 AJ, tell me... no, no, no...
00:54 tell everyone what it's like to be in love with the World Heavyweight Champion.
01:09 Well, in a word: It's heaven.
01:20 Nobody really knows this but Daniel caresses me.
01:29 And he has the softest lips.
01:36 And sometimes at night we spoon.
01:47 Danny...
01:50 We discussed, you not call me Danny in public. It's Daniel.
01:58 I'm sorry. Daniel is brave, courageous, generous...
02:18 As a vegan his body is his temple.
02:27 His mind and spirit are pure.
02:36 And above all of that he make me feel safe.
02:46 And that's why I really enjoy cuddling.
03:03 That's a little personal.
03:06 It's true, isn't it? It's true.
03:15 Daniel Bryan is a great lover.
03:33 And at WrestleMania?
03:37 And at WrestleMania he's going to make that big Irish brute tap out.
03:46 And therefore?
03:48 And therefore he will continue on his path of becoming the greatest of all time.
03:56 Let's hear it for AJ.
04:03 And better yet, let's hear it for me!
04:09 YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!
05:12 No disrespect to AJ, but before I came out here I actually threw up in my mouth.
05:20 I can still taste it. It's bad.
05:24 Seriously, AJ, c'mon. You really think your boyfriend Daniel here is brave and courageous?
05:31 Really? Serious? You know what I think?
05:37 I think you're a sniffling little coward.
05:46 And AJ says your lips are so soft?
05:50 Fella, I don't even want to go there.
05:58 But I tell you where I do want to go. And that's WrestleMania.
06:07 Because if you don't like being called Danny...
06:09 My name is Daniel!
06:34 Well, Danny Boy...
06:38 I can call you Danny Boy, right? Actually I think it's a great name from Danny Boy.
06:59 If you don't like being called that you sure as hell aren't like being called former World Heavyweight Champion!
07:14 Seriously though, at WrestleMania I'm gonna kick your teeth down your throat.

03:21Wow, if this is a dream, don't wake me,
03:25because I'm just chilling in the imagination kickin' it Jeff Hardy style, the new World Heavyweight Champion!
03:36I'm not dreaming.
03:40I would like to thank all the outcasts, all the rejects, all the freaks, all the people.
03:49All the People that have stood with me through sick and thin and always believed in what I stand for, thank you.
04:01You know, CM Punk going into Night of Champions..
04:04he said some pretty rotten things to you and I.
04:13And you were all with me, just said "no" to being forced fit his point of view.
04:21Because the fact is, if everybody in the world was just like CM Punk, what a boring world it would be.
04:32Hey, we're different, that's why this life is cool.
04:38Look, I can assure you, the only thing I'm high on, is being World Heavyweight Champion, for you!
04:50I was born a free spirit and I've beat my own drum ever since.
04:58Because I'm a human, you all are human
05:01and we have the God-given right to live life the way we choose and be who we wanna be!
05:17Now I know that Teddy Long has given CM Punk his rematch.
05:30Any time he wants it against whose ever the Champion at that current time.
05:36And the reason I bring that up is my opponent tonight..
05:39is one of the most talented guys I have ever been in the ring with.
05:43He shines like no other and that man is John Morrison.
05:53Now John, last time my title reign was way to short
05:57and I don't plan on that happening again.
06:00So I know I'm here for a fight and Baltimore,
06:04I just want you to get ready!
06:14'Cause by the way, this man has beaten CM Punk twice
06:17and he might be in for one of the most breath-taking, amazing, death-defying main events in Smackdown history! Thank you!
01:35 I am a man who stands up for what he believes in.
01:41 And I believe that I am an honest man, while 99 percent of you are liars and cheaters.
01:50 I believe that I am a true success, whereas 99.9 percent of you have failed in everything you've ever accomplished in trying to do.
02:04 And I believe, by unmasking Rey Mysterio I've actually done him a favor.
02:13 By exposing his true identity I have relieved the weight of deceit off of his shoulders.
02:20 Now Rey Mysterio doesn't have to live his life in the shadows.
02:25 He can walk the streets free, not having to look over his shoulder with ultra-paranoia, always wondering if the mailman on the street or the clerk in the store recognizes him and realizes who he really is.
02:42 In essence, I have set Rey Mysterio free.
02:56 And instead of thanking me like a man, for what I have done for him, he has disappeared like a coward.
03:03 He's ashamed, he's humiliated, he's embarassed right now. But in time he's gonna realize, that he's been redeemed, that he's been led to his salvation by his savior, Chris Jericho.
03:24 And I've exposed Rey Mysterio as a fraud, and I'm gonna let the world know the same thing about CM Punk tonight.
03:32 I am better than CM Punk, because I am the best in the world at what I do.
03:41 I guarantee, I am going to beat CM Punk tonight, and there is nothing that anyone of you is going to be able to do about that.
03:51 Do you understand what I am saying to you, right now?

GLOSSARY

stands up - whereas - relieved - deceit - led
stands up: lucha; whereas: mientras; relieved: aliviado; deceit: dishonest behavior; led: llevado;
00:02 all over the country people have been asking me: Why, Eddie, why?
00:14 Why did you do to Rey Mysterio what you did to him last week?
00:28 Plain and simple: I gave him what he wanted.
00:39 He wanted a fight, I GAVE him a fight. I GAVE HIM THE FIGHT OF HIS LIFE!
00:51 And do you think that makes me happy?
01:02 DO YOU THINK THAT MAKES ME HAPPY?!? I DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT, REY! WHY DID YOU MAKE ME DO IT?! POR QUE?
01:19 It's YOUR fault!
01:23 I never wanted to lay a hand on you. And look what you made me do.
01:34 But you know what, Rey?
01:41 Blessings come in disguise, esse!
01:47 You see, I realized something last week, homes.
01:53 My eyes were opened.
01:58 And I realized what you were doing.
02:05 And not only you: All of these people. I realized that each and every one of you are living vicariously through me. You were stealing MY passion, MY love, MY energy. You were stealing MY LATINO HEAT!
02:41 But as of last week, not anymore, cause I got it back.
02:50 I GOT IT AAAAAAALL BACK!
02:56 And I like it. I like what I'm feeling, Rey.
03:04 So I've got a little piece of advice for you, homes.
03:13 See, nothing and no one is going to ever take away my Latino Heat again.

Subtitles
02:18I will never get tired of that.
02:27For those of you that may have missed it:
02:29last night on raw it's true,
02:33I am being forced to retire.
02:40And what it's made me do is really
02:44open my eyes to everything again, you know, and really, really soak all of these experiences up.
02:50Almost like I'm seeing it all again for the very first time.
02:57Like my entrance, I uhh,
03:02you know I've been involved in some of the most insane matches in the history of the WWE.
03:13Some of the most insane moments whether it was helping to create the TLC Match - tables, ladders and chairs -
03:24whether it was 20-foot super-spears,
03:28diving into a flaming tables with thumbtacks in my back,
03:33whether it was Elimination Chamber matches or Hell in a Cell Matches against The Undertaker.
03:41No matter what, every time that I was going into a match like that or
03:47I have taken red eye flights and been up all night and two days because of our travel schedule, no matter what:
03:52As soon as I came down that ramp with my music playing - which I may be biased but I think is the coolest music in the WWE,
04:03so I gotta thank the guys from Alter Bridge for give me that song
04:08No matter what, as soon as I came out and hearing you guys,
04:13hearing all of you just feeding me that energy...
04:45Every time, every time I came out there you gave me goosebumps.
04:51And I have to do that one more time.
04:56So if you guys will bear with me, I'm going back up there and I'm running out here and I'm going to do that one last time.
07:05Man I got out of shape already, that tired me out.
07:14Listen, I—Since I announced my retirement,
07:20the outpouring from everybody in the WWE Universe it's been insane, it's been awesome.
07:31And a lot of people are sad and disappointed that my career is forced to come to an end.
07:39But you know what: I think, I think everybody is actually happy and very positive about the fact that
07:45the WWE and our team of doctors caught this before I was in a Ladder Match and I landed
07:51and couldn't get up. So that's good, that's a positive, I'm happy about that.
08:07I'm happy about looking at the rest of my life from here.
08:10I'm happy about the fact that me and my girl are gonna get the dogs and go hiking in the mountains,
08:15go surfing down in Nicaragua, I can't wait.
08:22I'm happy about the fact that I get to wear my two suits
08:26I'm not much of a suit guy as I can tell, but I thought that when I go out I might as well go out in style.
08:36And by the way I bought it for 100 bucks at JC Penney.
08:46I'm happy that I got to come to Albany.
08:54I really am. And I'm not just blowing smoke here, because Albany,
08:59it holds a special place for me, because this is where I won my very first WWE Championship.
09:12It's a little known fact but I was sitting in Albany in a rental car when I came up with the name Edge.
09:21And what makes me most happy - and this is gonna be the tough part -
09:25is that my mom is with me here tonight.
09:34There she is right there. There she is.
09:42She is gonna be all shy and timid, but this is the strongest woman I've ever met.
09:51That woman right there...
10:06she instilled the strength in me to make it this far, to come through the broken necks, the torn achilles tendons.
10:11If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be standing here right now,
10:15without her support over the years, I wouldn't have been able to do it.
10:22So everybody in here: Maybe give your mums a call tonight, alright?
10:30And I'm happy to be here in front of all of you.
10:38You know I don't want it to get all sappy and corny - even though I guess it already has -
10:44but to me this World Heavyweight Championship,
10:50it has meant everything to me. Absolutely everything. I—I've worked my entire career to hold this.
10:59But it's not just mine, it never has been, it's not anyone else's in the locker room.
11:06To me, each and everyone of you holds a piece of this, it's symbolic.
11:19But now it's time for me to come out here and do what I have to do,
11:28and that is relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship.
11:37Oh it's cool, it's cool, I gotta do it, man.
11:44In closing, I really really just, I wanna thank all of you
11:51because this has been one hell of a career,
12:01it's been one hell of a ride. Thank you. Thank you very much.

GLOSSARY

soak up - thumbtacks - goosebumps - bear - outpouring - instilled
soak up: feeling something enjoyable; thumbtacks: tachuelas; goosebumps: little bumps that appear on your arm when you feel cold, are scared, or sexually excited.; bear: support; outpouring: effusion; instill: To introduce by gradual, persistent efforts;
01:58Last week I extended a hand to the WWE Universe in a much needed intervention.
02:07I don't know if you people know this or not, but I'm not the only one
02:11who knows that pills and cigarettes and alcohol are harmful.
02:17The medical science has proven this.
02:21There's a Surgeon General put in place to put warning labels on all of these products.
02:29I gotta see it's just there to warn the smart people who already know, huh?
02:34This is my crusade.
02:37And I will continue my crusade as long as there are people who need help.
02:44As long as there are people out there who need change in their lives.
02:54One person in particular I've been helping for quite some time now. I'd like to introduce him to the world. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Luke Gallows.
03:13That's right. Some of you may recognized him.
03:16As Festus. But that was a lifetime ago.
03:20And it's a lifetime that he just as soon forget.
03:24It's a lifetime of torturous drug abuse and neglect.
03:29You see, it started just like it starts for all of you people. One, one little pill.
03:36Just one pill to take the edge off. One painkiller. And then one turns to two,
03:42two turns to four, four turns to eight, so on and so forth.
03:47And sure his friends, his family were there. But they enabled him.
03:52They didn't help him. They thought they were, but they were slowly rotting him from the inside out.
03:59But then I helped him. Just like I could help all of you.
04:09Trust me, this is just the start. This doesn't end here, this begins here and now.
04:15I will continue to reach out and help those who can't help themselves.
04:26On December, 1st— this is scary, people, pay attention! On December 1st, a very dangerous, addictive new drug hits the streets.
04:37Now this scares me, because
04:40it's a socially accepted over-the-counter drug and it's gonna be widely available all over the world.
04:50And it's scary, because it's more dangerous than any prescribed medication.
04:54It's more harmful than chain-smoking an entire carton of unfiltered cigarettes.
05:00It is more dangerous than corroding your liver with a fifth of gin or wodka and then chasing it with your daddy's favorite beer.
05:24'Jeff Hardy. My life. My rules.'
05:29And what an appropriate title - for a loser who destroyed his life and his career living by "his rules".
05:42And what makes me sick to my stomach is Jeff didn't just ruin his life, he didn't just end his career['Hardy'-Chants]
05:53He ruined the lives of all his fans, because he's planted seeds of destruction in all of the people.
06:02All of drug addicts like yourself who actually looked up to the Charismatic Enabler like he was some sort of a prophet.
06:13Well, if you people have any brain cells left,
06:18if there's anything left of your memory that's not burned out,
06:22all's you need to know is the last chapter of this DVD is the most important one you need to watch, because it tells the whole story.
06:31It's a Cage Match between myself and Jeff Hardy.
06:36Where I ended Jeff's career here in the WWE. Forever!
06:45I'm the reason he's not here!
06:52And I know how hard it is to deprogram your weak, little brains from all the lies you've been fed over the years.
07:00But you owe it to yourselves. Look yourself in the mirror,
07:04search inside yourself for that little shred of self-respect that might be left. And when it comes to this garbage,
07:14just say No. Because this,
07:19this in my hands right here
07:55Punk. You come out here and preach to each and every one of these people to follow your beliefs like you're some sort of cult leader.
08:06The thing you didn't get about my brother Jeff Hardy is that he's a free spirit.
08:12And sure, he's got his flaws. We all do.
08:16Even you. But you only targeted him, because he wouldn't follow your rhetoric, he wouldn't follow your nonsense.
08:25And other than demonizing my brother for his lifestyle, you don't know anything about Jeff Hardy!
08:31Oh, wait.
08:36I don't know anything about Jeff? What I know about Jeff is if he listened to me,
08:41if he searched and found the Straight Edge inside of himself instead of living for the moment,
08:48he'd have more of a future crawl out of a bottle.
08:53And if you'd come out of your soapbox for a moment, CM Punk, maybe you wouldn't be the FORMER Straight Edge Champion.
00:07Allright Serena. For the last time - Let me handle it, ok?
00:12Don't you realize that Kane is not gonna stop.
00:16Guys, all we have to do is admit it. And all of this is...
00:21Stop! We are not admitting it. It's the last thing we're gonna do, ok? I have the situation under control.
00:30I don't even know how you can say that.
00:33You were in surgery for ten hours.
00:37And guys we do NOT have control of this situation at all. In fact we lost control a long time ago.
00:43Serena, calm down.
00:45Thank you.
00:46No, Luke. I'm not gonna calm down.
00:50Do you understand how badly it hurt me when I had to see your face before you went to the operating room?
00:58I've never seen you like that before.
01:02I seriously felt helpless. And... it just broke my heart.
01:11Hey, do you trust me?
01:17Of course, I do.
01:19Then let us take care of it, ok. Tonight Luke will take care of Kane.
01:25If you two don't, then I will
01:36This is all gonna end tonight.
01:38I know... I know.
01:41The Straight Edge Society depends on it.
01:33Awwwww. Did you expect somebody else?
01:41Well, he's gone. So, like a junkie waiting for his or her next fix,
01:48I suggest you all soak this up while you can, because this is the last time
01:55you'll ever see a trace of Jeff Hardy here on Friday Night SmackDown, ever again.
02:05And that means no more ridiculous face-paint.
02:21That means no more stupid armbands.
02:36And it certainly means no more excuses.
02:41Now that the 'Charismatic Enabler' is gone, I can see it on your faces;
02:48you're all wondering, if his living in the moment/life of excess was the answer.
02:52And the clear answer is: It wasn't.
02:55See, I know you're all not strong enough to be like me. I see it every day.
03:01I know how completely weak all of you people really are.
03:14But now, at least, you all have a champion you can be proud of.
03:20A Straight Edge World Heavyweight Champion!
03:30Now that Jeff's gone, I'm the only one that's strong enough to reach out to you,
03:35pull you up from your downward-spiraling life.
03:39I certainly won't ever miss a show because of an incident at an airport.
03:44I certainly won't ever skip a WrestleMania because I failed a test.
03:50Unlike Jeff I'm built to last. And I am here to stay.
03:55So, if you're gonna emulate any WWE Superstar, the choice is extremely clear.
04:03It's the choice of a new generation. And his name is CM Punk.
04:18And then there's The Undertaker, who is a legend.
04:25But he is no longer the solitary icon here on SmackDown.
04:30I am the only back-to-back Money In The Bank winner, I am the man that retired Jeff Hardy,
04:43and I'm the first and only Straight Edge World Heavyweight Champion.
04:48So, if The Undertaker at any moment wants to come down here and test my breaking point—well, I'll be waiting.
05:01I'll be waiting for the lights to go out, for him to appear before my magical eyes.
05:09In fact, I know The Undertaker is here right now.
05:19So, Undertaker, if you wanna come down here and face me, man to man—like I said, I'll be waiting.
05:36See, Ladies and Gentlemen, The Undertaker knows it's not in his best interest to face me in the ring man to man.
05:45You'd rather lurk in the shadows and play psychological games,
05:50which is what you people fall for every single time.
06:03See, all it takes is a couple of mirrors and some smoke to make you all believers.
06:09Smoke being the operative word. I can imagine you all, sitting on your couch,
06:15vegging out, smoking your illegal substances. Hanging on The Undertaker's every magical trick.
06:27Oohing and aahing at all his spooky powers.
06:32Well, what The Undertaker fails to realize is, that unlike you people, my mind is clear and strong.
06:40It hasn't been polluted with barbiturates and poison like beer and cigarettes.
06:48So at Breaking Point there's not gonna be any time for games and tricks.
06:53It's gonna be two icons in the ring, face to face, in a fight to the finish.
07:01And I love that. I love it, because The Undertaker has never faced a guy like me before.
07:08I have no breaking point.
07:11And all you have to do is look in my eyes and realize that I've laughed in the face of temptation, time and time again.
07:21I have never tapped out to society's schoolyard attempts and peer pressure.
07:30You try to stick a beer in my hand with the same commercials that have hypnotized all of you people
07:37and that sell you all your narcotics and things you're addicted to
07:44well, I'm harder than any alcohol you can drink.
07:49I'm straighter than any line you can snore up your nose.
07:54And I certainly can hurt you a lot faster than any pill you put on your tongue.
08:04But I do have one vice.
08:09It's a very dangerous vice, in fact, it's more dangerous
08:14that anything all of you people are addicted to.
08:21I can't get enough of it, but unlike your typical monkey on your back...
08:27it's more like an Anaconda
01:23I told you soooooo!
01:29It seems like I'm out here a lot saying that to you people, right?
01:33I know it seems like a lot, but the truth is, I said I would beat Jeff, and I did
01:43I told you so.
01:46I said that I would get rid of Jeff Hardy FOREVER,
01:55and I did - I told you so.
02:00And then I said I would make the Undertaker tap out to the Anaconda Vice and you laughed.
02:09But then I did just that.
02:12And contrary to what you people believe, I didn't come out here to brag
02:16about being the first and only man to make the Phenom, the Undertaker, tap out.
02:26I came out here to confront the Undertaker.
02:29I came out here to confront the Undertaker in MY ring,
02:34or my yard if you will.
02:40I came out here to stick MY World Heavyweight Championship in his face,
02:47and look him in the eye and say to him
02:52I TOLD YOU SOOOO.
02:58But of course he's conveniently not here right now, so instead I think I'll address all of you people.
03:11It's come to my attention that you people think that I've been preaching to you.
03:19Alright, we'll call a spade a spade, the truth is, yes I have because you people need a good preaching to.
03:28You people need somebody you can look up to, you need a leader who isn't morally corrupt
03:35and you need somebody who is righteous, not self-righteous.
03:43And I know what you're all gonna do next.
03:46You're gonna do exactly what your hero the Undertaker did, you're gonna give up.
03:53Well, by the looks of half of ya,
03:57you already have. I mean, what kind of life is it that you live?
04:02What kind of existance do you have where you wake up in the morning and you have to pop a pill to help crawl out of bed?
04:11Then you ravage your body with pitchers of beer.
04:17And that's supposed to somehow heal your broken self-worth.
04:23And then you just make excuses about inhaling poison into your lungs just to calm your nerves.
04:33And then, at the end of your sad, pathetic, lonely day,
04:39you're in need of another pill to make you forget everything, you need a pill to help you sleep.
04:53You are all just a legion of inebriated zombies waiting in line at the pharmacy with your hand out,
05:03begging and pleading for that newest anti-depressant that you think is going to help put an artificial smile on your face.
05:17You scratch and you claw for scapegoats for all of your inadequacies.
05:23And believe me, you have a lot of inadequacies.
05:35And don't tell me that you don't self-medicate yourself to forget about it all.
05:41Don't tell me you don't self-medicate the height from all your inadequacies.
05:49Don't tell me you don't do it. Because if you do, then you're a liar too.
05:58You're lying to yourselves right now,
06:02you're lying to the person next to you, you go home and you lie to your family,
06:09and it's insulting because right now you're lying to me.
06:13And I can see right through all of you people and your lies
06:17because I am not a liar.
06:22I am a man who means what he says and says what he means.
06:30What I am is a prophet. I am the choice of a new generation.
06:39I am a champion that everybody can finally be proud of.
06:44I am the first and only straight-edge World Heavyweight Champion in history!
07:02And if you're not straight-edge like me, well that just means I'm better than you!
Batista is the special guest on The Highlight Reel, Chris Jericho pushes Batista to the edge. Part 1 is where Chris teases HBK by pretending to be Ric Flair. Smackdown in London, England. April 15th 2008. No Copyright Infringement Intended. Enjoy!
01:09Welcome to the special Smackdown edition of the Highlight Reel. I am your host, Chris Jericho
01:17and as many of you saw last Monday night on Raw, I have been named the special guest referee
01:22for the match at Backlash between the "Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels
01:29and my guest tonight, the "Animal" Batista.
02:45Well, Big Dave, I know you have a big night, tonight.
02:46I mean, you have a HUGE main event match on SmackDown! against the Undertaker
02:55and I wanted to bring you out here to wish you luck. Also, I wanted to explain to you what happened between me and Shawn Michaels last Monday night on RAW.
03:03I did a little analysis and I figured out the problem you have with him is you think Shawn Michaels is a phony.
03:09I also did some theorizing that deep down Shawn Michaels really enjoyed the fact
03:13that he retired Ric Flair, your mentor.
03:17And despite his arguments, despite his false modesty,
03:20he also relished and thrived on all these backstabbing actions he has committed during his career over the years.
03:27But you know what Shawn Michaels' response was to my accusations?
03:31Let's take a look at it on the Jeritron 6000!
04:11Yeah, exactly! You saw what Shawn did and by his actions he basically proved that you and I are correct.
04:18I mean, he could've denied what I said, he could've been the grand voice of reason and explain himself, but instead he took a cheap shot.
04:25And by doing so he justified all of your feelings and thoughts that you've had towards him and for that, Dave, I say:
04:31Your're welcome!
04:44You see, the thing is,
04:47I don't remember of asking you to be my lawyer.
04:55I don't need you to speak on my behalf!
04:57If I have a problem with someone, I'll confront them to their face!
05:04So I can't express my opinions around here anymore?
05:07No, not when it interferes with my business, you can't!
05:12I was fine deeling with Shawn myself at Backlash,
05:16now I gotta deal with you, the special referee?
05:21Hey, this is between me and Shawn and I don't see where you fit into the equation.
05:30Let me just remind you, I don't wanna be the referee,
05:33I never asked to be the referee. But since that I am and I'm feeling a little underappreciated right now, let me cut to the chase, okay?
05:39I called Shawn Michaels out on the carpet last Monday night on RAW and now I'm gonna do the same thing to you, Dave.
05:44Doctor Jericho is gonna do a little analysis of you.
05:49I thought it was a little bit odd that you were so upset that Michaels retired Ric Flair.
05:53Seemed so irrational. I mean, Flair was okay with it.
05:56But yet, you weren't, and I understand now. I know! I know why you're so upset with Shawn Michaels,
06:01is because YOU wanted to retire Ric Flair yourself!
06:16I've heard this theory, and I...
06:18Nonononono! It's more than a theory and I'll tell you the reason why.
06:22You wanted Shawn to lose at WrestleMania so you could challenge Flair,
06:26one on one, mentor to student, beat him and get the proverbial passing of the torch.
06:31But Shawn Michaels took that from you, Dave.
06:34I mean, that must've been horrible to know that Flair handpicked Shawn Michaels over you to be his opponent at WrestleMania.
06:43I mean, after all you had been through and all the things you have done, when it came down to it,
06:47he wanted to be in the ring with the best and he chose Shawn Michaels, not Batista.
06:53I mean, that's... that's a horrible feeling to know that when it came down to it, that you didn't...
06:58you weren't up to snuff for Ric Flair and his biggest match at WrestleMania.
07:05You know, Dave, I was in the ring with Flair.
07:07During his farewell speech I hugged the man and as a tear rolled down my eye,
07:11I saw the emotion between Flair and Shawn Michaels as they looked each other eye to eye and said, 'I love you'.
07:19They said 'I love you'.
07:20But I didn't see any emotion coming from you. As a matter of fact, I couldn't even see your eyes cause you wouldn't even take your sun glasses off.
07:27You're too cool for school to show your true emotions to the man that you considered to be your mentor,
07:32your hero, the man you allegedly care so much about!
07:39You don't have to say anything, Dave! You don't have to say anything, cause I know that I'm right.
07:43As a matter of fact, these people all know that I'm right.
07:49And I'll prove it to ya'! ... By show of hands,
07:53who here feels that Batista wanted to retire Ric Flair himself? ...
08:01Okay, okay. By another show of hands, who here feels that Batista is much more selfish than Shawn Michaels? ...
08:13Okay, how about this one. Another show of hands, who here feels that...
