"Your phony hustle, loyalty and respect isn't gonna cut it anymore"

John Cena: "I am seeing that last week's excitement is carrying over to tonight. You guys... you guys ever noticed that every time somebody comes down that ramp for Monday Night RAW, they just get a microphone and talk about what happened last week? You know what? Tonight, I'm gonna do the exact same thing, 'cause I'm a little bit upset about what happened last week. Last week was great, starting off just like tonight. You guys were excited - some of you were happy to see me, some of you were indifferent, that's okay. Lot of energy in the room. We were fresh off the heels of TLC, Vickie Guerrero came out, there was the whole impromptu roast of Vickie Guerrero... it was a party! But alas, every party has its pooper. And right after a match with Dolph Ziggler, this happened.

Consider the party officially pooped on. I brought this on myself... [Im Publikum hört man CM Punk-Sprechchöre] I know... I know why they cheer, because I did bring this upon myself. For those who don't know: In my relentless pursuit of the Nexus, I... I admit, I accidentally spilled CM Punk's diet soda. I... I know, I know. Seriously, it was an accident, I do feel bad about it. I set... I set the guy back $ 0.75, $ 1.25 in some of the vending machines. I apologize, and I also understand that I was so out of line in spilling his diet soda from the RAW commentary table, that I understand why he came down and met me on SmackDown to do this.

All calorie-free frustration aside, do you guys have any idea how much energy it took to lift Vickie Guerrero that high? CM Punk, I cannot replace that famous diet soda. But I can allow you a chance to air your grievances. Let's bring out CM Punk, allow him to be heard. [Punks Musik ertönt.] Oh, there he is!"

CM Punk: "Wow everybody, it's John Cena! He comes out here every Monday night, he is excitable, he throws his hat at somebody... everybody loves it. I am so impressed at how you do that. You get all of this people to believe that you are that friendly, smiling-every-day man, when I know the truth. And the truth, John Cena, is you are thoughtless, you are heartless and above all else, you are dishonest. I'm sure there is millions of people worldwide, including yourself, that would love to believe that this is about a spilled diet soda. But John, this goes way beyond my spilled diet soda. Yeah.

[Das Publikum antwortet mit lauten "You suck"-Rufen.]

John, you were fired from the WWE. You were gone. You gave a very tear-inducing speech in the middle of the ring about how you finally get to see your mum and hang out with your little brother and you said you're gonna go away, you're gonna be the man of your word. But what happened? You came back later that night! And than you came back the next week. And then you came back the next week, showing all of this people, who aren't intelligent enough to see through your facade, what I have known all along: That your word is absolutely worthless.

And than there is TLC. You have the man beaten. Wade Barrett, a very tough individual, and you have him beaten in a chairs match. And that is not good enough for you. You don't take the high ground, you can't ride off into the sunset with your victory. You drag the man off to the side of the stage, and you drop fifteen steel chairs on him. And I want to know exactly why you think that's acceptable behavior. I want to know why you think it's okay to show up the next night on RAW, and humiliate the poor guy and show..."

John Cena: "That is boulder dash! Fifteen steel chairs, that's insane! It was... twenty-three steel chairs! And in case you forgot, Wade Barrett and the Nexus gave me about 5,000 beatdowns, made me their personal slave and ended my career."

CM Punk: "Aaaaawww... you want to talk about ending careers, you hypocrite? This is exactly what I'm talking about. You ended the career of my good friend Dave Batista. John, John - look at me when I'm talking to you - this... this is a reoccurring pattern with you. Once again you have the man beaten. Last man standing. He verbally submits, how humiliating. The match is won, but no. You AA him off a car through the very steel ramp that I'm sitting on, which facilitated the end of his career.

Now we talk about Vickie Guerrero. You know, I'm surprised the lovely Vickie Guerrero doesn't up and quit based on all the abuse you heap on her. It's not just the physical things to the Wade Barretts and the Dave Batistas, but it's... it's the name-calling, it's the mental abuse to somebody as gorgeous and beautiful as Vickie Guerrero."

John Cena: "It's the this, it's the that... Okay, CM Punk is going to play Mr. Fingerpointer. Well... One: Dave Batista broke my neck. Two: He showed up on RAW the next night and quit on his own terms. And C: I didn't just single out Vickie Guerrero. In case you haven't been watching for the past eight years, I talk about everybody. Uh... Michael Cole. Michael Cole has an anonymous fetish with Justin Bieber... and has the word "The Miz" manscaped right below his belly button. Me. Look at me. I look like the crazy sexchild of the Incredible Hulk and Grimace. And than there is you..."

CM Punk: "Yeah, and than there is me, who happens to not be laughing. I don't know if you noticed that: You are not funny. This is all gonna stop. [Das Publikum beginnt zu buhen.] No, you know I'm right. John, you know I'm right. You will change. I will facilitate that change. This is all gonna stop. John... John, look at me. The first two attacks, those were warning shots. I'm just letting you know that finally somebody is standing up to your ruthless, barbaric ways. Your phony hustle, loyalty and respect isn't gonna cut it anymore, okay? I know the real you. And it's gonna stop."

[Im Publikum erwachen laute Cena-Sprechchöre.]

John Cena: "Doesn't sound like anything is stopping at anytime soon. You see, you're out there and you're talking a really, really big game with uh... with your theories and... and I am this, and I am that. The brilliant thing about WWE is, you don't have to sit through the people's court. You don't have to shake hands with Judge Joe Brown. But two people have a difference of opinion, they have a beautiful place to settle the issue. [Cena weist auf den Ring.] Right here, in front of the entire WWE universe. So, are you gonna sit up there and talk all night or you wanna come down and dance so we can get this over?"

CM Punk: "Oh we can do this live, Monday Night RAW, right here in Albany, right? [Punk beginnt die Rampe hinab zu gehen... und bleibt stehen] Thank you for being oh so predictable, John Cena. See, this isn't the John Cena show tonight, this is the CM Punk show. And this is not happening on your terms, this is happening on my terms. So sometime tonight it will be me standing in that ring, calling you out. I'm gonna call you out. John, I want you to know: If you think the last two weeks, those attacks with the steel chair, if you think that was shocking, you were suprised, I have got a real eye-opener for you later tonight. The real surprise happens later tonight. And I promise you John, it's a night you will never forget.

But you're right at the top of the hour, this is Monday Night RAW! This is about fun! So on behalf of myself, CM Punk, to you and yours, John Cena, I would like to wish you and all your fans watching all over the world a very, very happy new year."
