John Bradshaw Layfield: "Most of you people are extremely happy that I just had one hell of a week. Not only do I get fired from CNBC, but Eddie Guerrero wrecks my limousine with me in it. And with Ronald Reagan, one of our greatest Presidents ever, passing away last week, all the media wants to talk about is me. You people and our media in America are exactly what's wrong with America. AMERICANS are what's wrong with America.

You people want me to fail for one reason... [Zu Zwischenrufer] Shut up, I'm talking! You people want me to fail because when I was in high school, I'm the one that threw you in your locker, I'm the one that took your girlfriend, I was the captain of the football team, I'm the one that got everything – an it hasn't changed one bit now that I'm 37 years old.

I am RICHER than you people, I am BETTER-LOOKIN' than you people, and what makes you mad is that I have a BACKBONE. The whole world is against me right now. The media has vilified me, CNBC has fired me. And what makes you mad, is I will not beg for a damn thing. I will not crawl, I will not back up. You can knock me on my ass but I will be back, and that makes you people mad ‘cause despite everything I will come back and I will be successful.

It is what I have done my whole life, and that is why you people hate me. I was raised by a man who had a backbone. So do I. I came into this world alone. I will leave alone. I don't need a damn soul with me. Come Hell, come high water. Take your best shot, America. John Bradshaw Layfield is right here and I won't back up from anybody. [Buhrufe] And if you don't like it, you can go to Hell.

A year and a half ago, I was a guest of the United States army in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Where were you? Where were you? Where was our media? You weren't there, were you? I am an American. The night before, a soldier got killed in a firefight. A soldier got killed in a firefight, and what did our media cover? The fact that a man died a hero, defending our country? The fact that a man died preserving our freedom in a land he didn't wanna be in, thousands of miles away from his family? What are you booin', our American soldiers? Huh? That shows you what kind of American you are, you piece of garbage.

Our American media covered one thing that week, and that was the fact that Sean Penn, Sean Penn was in Baghdad as a guest of Saddam Hussein's regime in support of Iraq, and they cast it in a positive light. That is the media that got you like the mindless zombies that you are. [Buhrufe] Oh I've been to Iraq now, but I went as a guest of the United States government, IN SUPPORT of our troops. Calling me anything but a Great American is like calling mother Teresa a prostitute.

I come back last week and find out that I am fired from CNBC. I left Fox News as a guy who appeared on there regularly to CNBC, with ratings that might as well be in the witness protection program, to all kinds of dreams, and all of a sudden after three weeks, they realize that I'm a wrestler. Oh my God, I've got a big mouth. Well you're DAMN RIGHT I got a big mouth, and there's nothing you nor CNBC can do about it.

You see, I might as well as well take the Fifth Amendment, because the First Amendment does not mean a damn thing in our society anymore. ['Eddie!'-Chants] You see, everybody loves free speech until you use free speech. I wondered why you people hated me, and now I know. Because I expose you for what you are. I am strong. Therefore you are exposed to the fact that you are weak. I am driven. And that exposes the fact that you are lazy, complacent and take jobs you don't like because you don't have the guts to speak up. I have a backbone, and that makes you mad. People like ME, people like me are the ones that founded America.

[JBL sieht, wie ein Fan eine mexikanische Flagge schwenkt] Put that foreign flag down son, you're in America. Our Founding Fathers are rolling around in their grave right now at the pathetic example of Americans that you people have become. I am a window, a mirror that makes you look into your own souls. And you don't like what you see. You hate me because I reveal what you are.

Well at the Great American Bash, I'm gonna go one step further. I am going to become WWE Champion for one reason, and that is to shove it down your throats. Eddie Guerrero... Eddie Guerrero, this is past personal. Do you even KNOW what a Bullrope Match IS? There is a REASON they don't do Bullrope Matches anymore. BLOOD is gonna flow like a river. This will make judgment day look like a cartoon.

Eddie Guerrero, you have come to represent everything I hate about America. Eddie Guerrero, you personify what I abhor. These people like Eddie Guerrero because Eddie Guerrero asks nothing of ‘em. I condemn, I condemn - listen to me - I condemn you people for your lazy and pathetic lives. You are underachievers, and I say you are wrong, yet you hate me because of it.

Well Eddie, if I have to destroy myself to destroy you, then by God in Heaven, by everything holy, that is what I will do. Because I don't care if it's you people, I don't care if it's CNBC, I don't care if it's our liberal media, and I damn sure don't care if it's you Eddie Guerrero. Nobody, NOBODY can stop me from becoming WWE champion and taking my date with destiny."
